1. Exogenous variables and their influence on domestic credit provision in Nigeria : evidence from quantile regressionInnocent Chile Nzeh, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: This article analyses the work-related factors that impact the occurrence of presenteeism in Croatia during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main objective is to examine the connection between key variables and the prevalence of presenteeism among employees in Croatia. The study used logistic regression analysis to examine data from the 2021 European Working Condition Telephone Survey (EWCTS), encompassing a sample of 491 employees from Croatia. The study investigated work-related factors such as job demands, working hours, supervisory responsibilities, telework, and cooperation with coworkers. The analysis also takes into account demographic control variables, including age, gender, and educational level. The findings suggest that there is a significant relationship between work stressors and presenteeism. Employees who lack good collaboration with colleagues are more prone to attending work even when they are unwell. Age was also determined to be a significant factor. The study indicates that work-related factors have an impact on presenteeism in Croatia. To mitigate the adverse effects of presenteeism, firms should adopt strategies to enhance working conditions and foster a conducive work atmosphere. The results offer valuable perspectives for future research and practical strategies to reduce presenteeism and improve employee wellbeing.

2. Testing the sustainability of growth of the LJSEX in the January 2000 to May 2010 periodAleš Ahčan, 2011, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper we analyse the behaviour of the LJSEX, the main index of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange, in the period from January 2000 till May 2010. More precisely, we test for the presence of bubbles and antibubbles and try to determine whether or not a bubble could have been predicted (both the formation and the date of the bubble burst). Second, we also employ techniques used to model antibubbles to forecast the future behaviour of the LJSE index. Besides modelling index dynamics for the aforementioned period, we also seek to determine the factors that led to the bubble forming and later bursting. We find that the bubble could have been forecasted at least several months in advance. On the other hand, a very precise date of the crash seems harder to identify. By more closely analysing the interplay between interest rates, credit activity and the LJSEX, we conclude that there is a clear connection between decreasing interest rates, increased credit activity and the formation of a stock bubble. If there is a clear correlation between the early phase of a bubble and increased credit activity of the banking sector, the link between the end of the bubble and the restriction of credit activity is less pronounced. By fitting the extended antibubble model from (Johansen 1999a) we obtain the values of parameters that give us some indication of the future behaviour of the LJSEX. Based on these results we conclude that in the next few years we are likely to experience a period of increased volatility with no clear increasing or decreasing growth pattern.
