Author: Kimberly F. Luchtenberg (2015) - In this paper, we investigate worldwide contagion and its determinants during the 2008 financial crisis. Utilizing an international sample of returns from 2003 to 2009, we consider both uni- and bi-directional contagion. After controlling for crisis-related volatility, we find strong evidence that cross-market linkages increase among many financial markets. In contrast to previous crises, contagion following the 2008 global financial crisis is not confined to emerging markets. The United States and other mature financial markets in the sample transmit and receive contagion. Country markets are less influenced by regions than they are by other country markets. We also construct variabl...

Author: Tran Kim Dung (2017-10) - This paper aims at conceptualizing a framework of human resource management practices (HRMPs) that will work effectively in Vietnam. qualitative research is applied, based on a survey of 388 companies located in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam. HRMPs in Vietnam can be measured using seven criteria. Apart from the four traditional HRM functions, which are recruitment selection, training development, performance appraisal and compensation, HRMPs in the Vietnamese context involve three additional criteria: leading change and motivation, both based on traditional soft practices, and talent management, which is based on contemporary hard practice. The validity and reliability of the HRMPs has be...

Author: Vo, X.V. (2020) - This paper aims to examine the relation between idiosyncratic volatility (IVOL) and stock returns with full-sample and conditional alpha sub-samples in Vietnam stock market covering the period from January 2008 to December 2018. We test the IVOL effect on stock returns employing Fama-Macbeth regression method (firm-level analysis) and sorting portfolio method (portfolio-level analysis). In addition, we use different approaches to estimate IVOLs which are the standard deviation of the residuals estimated from regression based on capital asset pricing model (CAPM), Fama-French three-factor model and Carhart four-factor model. We find the IVOL effect which is considered as IVOL puzzle in...

Author: Elbert Bryan R. Vidal (2016-11-11) - Employability is a controversial topic, particularly in Danang. Currently, two perspectives believed to enhance employability are academic qualification and working experience. Some people believe that getting many academic diplomas and obtaining higher educational levels are really helpful in strengthening a person’s employability. Meawhile, others think work experiences play more important roles on making a person employable. This study will enlighten the readers about the reality of the discourse on academic qualifications and working experiences and their relationship to employability. The study is confined geographically to Da Nang City – one of Vietnam’s major cities.

Author: Nguyen, P.V. (2020) - This paper discusses academics’ perceptions of challenges during the implementation of peer observation of teaching (POT) for promoting teachers’ reflection and teaching improvement. This qualitative case study involved 11 academics teaching English at a university in Vietnam. Data were analysed inductively and thematically. Several challenges were identified: limited learning from observing junior peer teaching and junior peers’ feedback, uncritical feedback from peers without closeness, lack of sensitivity in giving feedback, and limited time for POT. These findings suggest that a strong peer relationship in a Confucian culture appears to be key for successful POT.

Author: Tri Tri Nguyen (2019) - Previous studies show mixed evidence of the role of banking expertise on the board of directors on accounting conservatism. In this paper, we add to this growing literature by providing an innovative way to measure banking expertise based on life-time working history in banks of all individual directors on the board. We find that accounting conservatism is negatively affected by banking expertise on the board. Also, the results indicate that banking expertise on the board has a more pronounced impact on accounting conservatism when firms have high bankruptcy risk and when firms have high financial leverage. The evidence has some implications for boards of directors.

Author: Thong Anh Tran (2019) - Agriculture is exposed to climatic impacts, especially in developing countries. Adaptation is the predominant practice that farming communities undertake to deal with these climate-induced challenges. While significant attention has been devoted to farmers’ adaptation strategies, little is known about how innovative practices are associated with the improvement of rural livelihoods. To address this gap, the paper attempts to investigate how farmers lead the process of rural innovations that constitute successful forms of adaptation to address the mixed impacts of dyke policies and climate change in two distinct agro-ecological zones (i.e. flooding and salinity) in the Vietnamese Mekon...

Author: Thanh, D.N.H. (2020) - The total variation (TV) regularization model for image restoration is widely utilized due to its edge preservation properties. Despite its advantages, the TV regularization can obtain spurious oscillations in flat regions of digital images and thus recent works advocate high-order TV regularization models. In this work, we propose an adaptive image restoration method based on a combination of first-order and second-order total variations regularization with an inverse-gradient-based adaptive parameter. The proposed model removes noise effectively and preserves image structures. Due to the adaptive parameter estimation based on the inverse gradient, it avoids the staircasing artifacts...

Author: Thanh, D.N.H. (2020) - In this article, we propose an adaptive total variation (TV) regularization model for salt and pepper denoising in digital images. The adaptive TV denoising method is developed based on the general regularized image restoration model with L1 fidelity for handling salt and pepper noise model. An estimation for regularization parameter is also proposed based on the characteristics of the salt and pepper noise. We implement the proposed adaptive TV-L1 regularization model efficiently for image denoising using the primal dual gradient method. In the experiments, the full-reference image quality assessment metrics are used for evaluating denoising quality across various noise levels in dif...

Author: Pham Thi Bich Ngoc (2017-09-28) - Advertising application has been seen as one of the greatest problems faced by small- and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), but simultaneously one of the most important activities for
their growth and survival. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to determine the importance
and role of advertising strategy applied in SMEs. Using a data set of SMEs in Vietnam from 2004
to 2012, we find that firms using advertisement can promote their market expansion although
spending more on advertising has no significant effect. Advertising through street posters, doorto-
door materials and internet are evidenced to be effective channel but those through radio, tivi,
newspapers and trade fair are ...
