The present study aims at revealing the financial leverage, Size, and asset structure and its impact on the values of firms. The researcher used the analytical method approach for a sample of 13 firms from the mining and extraction industry sector listed on the Amman stock exchange of the period 2010-2018.The model of simple line regression was used for testing the hypotheses of the study by using both programs of (E-views, STATA) in addition to both programs of unit root test and variance inflation factor to make sure of the data stability and no relationship between variables. The study concluded the non-existence of the impact of financial leverage on the firm value and the relationship between the financial leverage and Tobin’s q scale was negative. However, there was an impact of each size and asset structure on firm value and the relationship between the natural logarithm of size and asset structure was positive with Tobin’s q. The study recommends that Companies must achieve an optimal mixture of debt and equity, for long-term survival and hence the growth of the company.

The current study aims to determine the effect of interest rate risk on financial performance through the banking security degree as a mediating variable. The study population includes 13 Jordanian commercial banks from 2011 to 2018. To achieve the current study objectives, a descriptive and analytical approaches were used. Furthermore, Baron and Kenny’s test (1986) were adopted to examine the current study hypotheses. The results found that the banking security degree partially affects the relationship between interest rate risk and financial performance. Accordingly, this study provides a set of recommendations. Among them, we encourage policymakers and bank owners, and managers to develop efficient interest rate risk policies continuously in addition to strengthening the monetary and financial policies of the banking sector. They should strive to achieve a balance between each of the risks of interest rate, performance, and banking security degree.

E-learning technology adoption has become, during the COVID-19 pandemic, an essential requirement and a new trend to manage the academic activities in the universities which follow traditional education (Face-to-Face Classroom). Because of the significant effect of coronavirus pandemic on the educational Process, this study's primary purpose is to gain an insight into the factors affecting the students' acceptance and their intentions to adopt an e-learning system in the faculty of business at Tafila university in Jordan. A total number of 257 students with different college disciplinary took part in the study by engaging via a survey distributed as a link by WhatsApp, E-mail, and Thuraya Platform. The study formulated a model based on a UTAUT of (Venkatesh et al., 2003) and suggested a new two moderating factors (study qualification level and scientific disciplinary) after drop two variables from the original model to make the model applicable in the context of a study. The data collection analyzed by smart PLS revealed that the research model constructs have positive explanatory power of the student's behavioral intention to adopt an e-learning system and improved after the moderating effect. Final result Sof this study states that the scientific discipline is a critical moderating factor that moderated the behavioral intentions to adopt e-learning technology from Tafila university students' viewpoint and accepted the new situation of academic activities with behavioral intentions to adopt e-learning.

This study aimed at recognizing the effect of promotion strategy in the Jordanian Islamic banks on a number of customers. To accomplish the objective of this study, the researcher designed a questionnaire composed of three parts. The first part designed to collect data about the sample, while the second part was designed to collect information about the attitude to deal with Islamic banks. The questionnaire was distributed for a sample of 100 dealers with Islamic banks. The researcher recovered 95% of the distributed questionnaires. The collected questionnaires were entered to statistical software (SPSS) and analyzed. The results showed that the advertisement is the most important field in promotion that should be concerned by banks to increase its customers. The study concluded that the marketing strategy in Islamic banks is practiced randomly and not concentrated on that Muslims prefer the deal with Islamic banks.

The Multiple Linear Regression Analysis was used to examine the hypotheses of the study. The study revealed that there was an effect of the financial flexibility on the performance of the Jordanian services sector firms.

The current study investigates the effect of investment and financial decisions on stock prices and future profits in the presence of financial performance as an intermediate variable. Thus, the case of the Jordanian banking and insurance sector is analysed. The sample includes 13 banks and 10 insurance companies from 2009 to 2018. A structural equation modeling analysis is conducted using the AMOS 23 software to test the hypotheses and validate the model. Financial decision exhibits no effect on future profits and stock prices, whereas investment decision affects future profits and stock prices. Financial performance is considered a mediator in the effect between financing decision and future profits. By contrast, financial performance fails to mediate the impact of financial decision and stock prices. In addition, it cannot mediate the effect of investment decision on future profits and stock prices.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of Islamic financing on commercial banks’ credit facilities tested under the mediation of the two variables of Islamic bank size (Total asset and Investment deposit). Theoretical Framework: Even though studies of Islamic banking funding have been done within the Islamic economics and finance context, there has been needed to explore the effect of mediating the size of the Islamic bank and the relationship between Islamic financing and commercial banks’ credit facilities. Design/Methodology/Approach: We used the methodologies of Baron and Kenny (1986) and Preacher and Hayes (2008) to test a mediation effect of the Islamic bank size variable. Regarding the testing and validity of the hypothetical research model, path analysis was used within the structural equation modeling analysis. The study sample consists of 16 commercial and Islamic banks in the Jordanian banking sector, it is comprehensive of all listed banks' data in the Amman stock exchange, to the possibility of fairly generalizing the results to the community. Finding: Results indicate that the two variables of size indicators may partially mediate the direct effect of Islamic financing on commercial banks’ credit facilities. Such an effect is statistically significant. The findings provide practical solutions to enhancing competition in the Jordanian commercial and Islamic banking services market through various Islamic financing services to maintain and sustain banking resources. Research, Practical & Social implications: Future studies can consider other indicators of Islamic bank size and assess their influence on the various dimensions of the relationship between Islamic funding methodology and commercial bank facilities Implications/Originality/Value:  This study contributes to the literature on Islamic banking by analyzing the results of the effect of Islamic investment financing formulas on the commercial credit market in Jordanian banking, and it offers a practical and applied perception of the role played of the Islamic banking methodology in the Jordanian commercial credit market.
