Using data from white-collar workers at an insurance company in three midwestern states, this research determined that financial stress was negatively related to organizational commitment and was positively associated with absenteeism. Employers might consider offering workplace financial education programs to reduce absenteeism. Key words: financial stress, absenteeism, Work

MySpace Charity Badges - CareBadges - 0 views

  • RockYou widget is the most viewed by far, scoring 2,257,505 impressions. However, it has only raised $69 during that time, suggesting that the conversion rate might be low. That said, we’re all for promoting good causes on Mashable, and the combination of viral widgets and a positive message should be pretty powerful.
    • william doust
       
      Don't think that the dough will rise high with widgets asking for donations! - as this mashable article shows. 2.2million views but only $69.00 raised. So it works for awareness! - but does the relationship have to be built further before getting the money? - What about farming opinions? - feedback?

      Other studies have furhtered the impac of sigtma in maths. Females who were exposed to their "inability" in math, prior to performing an un-related test, performed lower on average. Whilst Asian women who were told how "Asians who were good at math & science" performed on average much better with theis type of positive priming, than they did with negative priming in un-related tests. Wow ;-)
