“…Logistic regression, or the logit model, measures the relationship between dependent categorical variables and one or more independent variables that are generally, but not necessarily, continuous by estimating event probabilities corresponding to the categorical variables (Hurlin, 2015). Logistic regression is a special case of generalized linear models and thus an analogous case of linear regression (Anderson et al, 2017;Manea et al, 2016;Popa, 2010). Dichotomous logit models have as explanatory variable the probability of occurrence of an event depending on exogenous variables.…”

The advent of m-commerce has reinvented and simplified the shopping experience for the digital native generation. The following questions were the starting points for this research: is nutrition labeling important in purchase decisions? Could a new format for food nutrition labeling in m-commerce be the optimal way to inform the younger generation and enrich their shopping experience? This study continues the authors’ research on the food preferences of the younger generation by conducting a quantitative study on a sample of 364 students. The aim of the paper is to identify the factors that influence online food orders and the ways in which nutrition labeling can enhance consumers’ purchasing experiences and eating habits. The results show that nutrition facts play an important role in online purchases of new or unfamiliar foods. Control over one’s own diet and a higher income also make digital natives more interested in ordering food online. The use of a mobile format for nutrition labeling would be the necessary update for the food industry to turn nutrition data into added value, help consumers get a balanced diet and personalize nutritional needs, and for policymakers to adjust nutrition standards and policies toward healthier and more responsible consumption patterns.

“…It also identified the relationship between sustainable economic development, which is necessary and mandatory for all countries, and employment [36]. The sectoral approach of employment is based on the sectoral analysis of sustainable development at regional and territorial levels, in the economic, social, and environmental fields [76]. Moreover, the analysis of the impact of employment on the economic development of EU countries is extended by analyzing the spatial effects of employment [77], showing that regional sustainable development depends on the performance of the neighboring regions and highlighting that spatial influences are crucial in sustainable development policies and the issue of employment.…”

The objective of this study is to explore the impact of electronic commerce on employment rate for a sample covering the whole 27 Member States of the European Union (EU-27), from 2010 to 2019. Moreover, this research explores the clusters of nations with reference to electronic commerce adoption and employment rate dynamics. The outcomes of cluster analysis show that Western Europe reveals the most developed e-commerce marketplace in EU-27, shown by Internet accessibility and high penetration rate of digital tools, and the lowest figures are registered in the Eastern part of Europe. Furthermore, the empirical findings of the panel data fixed-effects and the generalized least squares regressions suggest that electronic commerce influences employment rate positively. By including country-level control variables (real GDP growth rate, research and development expenditure, employed ICT specialists, enterprises with Internet access), the outcomes reveal that one percentage change in enterprises’ total turnover from e-commerce sales, enterprises’ turnover from web sales, and enterprises with e-commerce sales of at least 1% turnover will increase employment rate by 0.205, 0.258, and 0.350 percentage points. Furthermore, the econometric evidence from the method of moments quantile regression models with fixed effects reinforces our findings. Enterprises’ total turnover from e-commerce sales and the percentage of enterprises with e-commerce sales of at least 1% turnover positively influence employment rate for all quintiles, but in the case of enterprises’ turnover from web sales, the effect is positive only for the quintiles ranging from 0.5–0.8.

“…While reducing the two concepts to one could simplify this particular literature or the empirical one on social inclusion, this idea is barely suggested. Sustainable development includes three major areas: economic, social and environmental being identified, in the literature, a number of methods of analysis to quantify the three dimensions, such as composite indices (Botha et al, 2020). However, when we refer to social inclusion as a result of economic development, it is essential that one of the indicators included in the analysis be able to quantify a country's level of well-being.…”

When we mention social inclusion, most of us think of political participation, social rights, civil liberties, equal access to race, ethnicity and gender, access to social services and the labour market, basically to a broader concept than social development. Social inclusion is a concept that can actually be defined, which means it can probably be measured. On this basis, a continuous effort is being made to measure the social inclusion elements, so the results can be used to build new indicators that help measure the multiple dimensions of social inclusion: The Social Inclusion Index, the Human Opportunity Index. This paper presents the development, based on multivariate data analysis techniques and methods, of an aggregated indicator of social inclusion for the member countries of the European Union which, besides the traditional variables (GDP), also measures the factors related to civil and political rights, women’s rights or perception of the LGBT community.
