Extra-role behavior also called organizational citizenship behavior is critical for organizational effectiveness. The purpose of this study is to develop and test an integrated model of organizational citizenship behavior based on the framework of organizational effectiveness suggested by Katz (1964) in the specific context of university teachers. The study is specifically aimed at finding the individual and joint direct and indirect effect of human resource management practices (HRP) and transformational leadership style (TSF) on affective organizational commitment (AC) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) of university teachers in Pakistan (developing country) and England (developed country). No other study has modeled these variables together. Data was collected through mailed and self-administered questionnaires consisting of standardized scales. Two samples of university teachers, one from Pakistan (n=402) and other from England (n=188), based on complex probability sampling were used in the study. One-way ANOVA was used to find the association of demographic factors (public and private nature of university, designation, qualification, tenure, gender, marital status and age) with affective commitment and citizenship behavior of university teachers. It was found that most of demographic characteristics caused significant variation in both affective commitment and citizenship behavior of teachers in both Pakistan and England. Correlation analysis showed significant positive associations among all four study variables. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to find direct effect of predictors (HRP and TSF) on mediating (AC) and dependent (OCB) variables and indirect effect of predictors on dependent variable with mediation of affective commitment both jointly and individually. It was found that HRP and TSF have significant direct effects on both AC and OCB in Pakistan and England individually as well as jointly. AC is also significantly related to OCB in both Pakistan and England but variation explained by AC in OCB in England is substantially higher than in Pakistan. AC is also found perfectly mediating the relationship between both predictors and OCB in all three cases (1. HRP-AC-OCB, 2. TSF-AC-OCB, 3. HRP,TSF-AC-OCB) in England while in Pakistan mediation of AC is just partial in all of these cases. Results have been discussed in the light of past studies and implications for managers and researchers have also been suggested.

مولانا حبیب الرحمن خاں شروانی
افسوس ہے کہ گزشتہ مہینہ نواب صدریار جنگ مولانا حبیب الرحمن خاں صاحب شروانی نے۸۶سال کی عمر میں وفات پائی۔۱۸۵۷ء کے ہنگامے کے بعد جن اکابر علم وادب نے اس ملک میں مسلمانوں کی نشاۃ ثانیہ کاسروسامان کیا تھا مولاناان کے زمرہ میں ایک نوجوان رفیق کی حیثیت سے شامل تھے اس لیے انھوں نے اس دور کی بہار سامانیاں خوداپنی آنکھ سے دیکھی تھیں اور اپنی خداداد صلاحیت وقابلیت سے کام لے کر ان کی تعمیر وترقی میں خود بھی عملی حصہ لیا تھا۔ مسلم یوینورسٹی علی گڑھ، ندوۃ العلما، دارالمصنفین اعظم گڑھ، مسلم ایجوکیشنل کانفرنس، دارالعلوم دیوبند،حیدرآباد کامحکمہ امور مذہبی،یہ سب ادارے مرحوم کی اصلاحی و تدبیری کاوشوں اورگوناگوں ہمدردانہ دلچسپیوں کے جولانگاہ تھے۔دولت زرکی بہتات کے ساتھ دولت علم وفضل سے بھی مالا مال تھے۔ مرحوم کاکتب خانہ ہندوستان کاایک بہترین کتب خانہ تھا جہاں ریسرچ اسکالر آکر مطالعہ وتحقیق کی تشنگی بجھاتے تھے۔ کتابوں کی حفاظت ونگرانی اوران کی ترتیب وفہرست سازی کا خاص اہتمام کرتے تھے۔ ذوق مطالعہ کایہ عالم تھا کہ ضعف ونقاہت اوربیماری کے باوجود روزانہ پندرہ گھنٹے کتب خانہ میں پابندی کے ساتھ بیٹھتے اورمطالعہ کرتے تھے۔ متعدد کتابیں اوربہتیرے مقالات بھی ان کے قلم سے نکلے،اردو کے صاحب طرز ادیب تھے۔فارسی اورعربی شعروادب کاشگفتہ ذوق رکھتے تھے۔ دین داری اورمذہبی شعائر وآداب کااحترام ان کی فطرت تھی۔ اخلاق و عادات، طورواطوار کے لحاظ سے اب سے ڈھائی تین سو برس پہلے کی اسلامی تہذیب و شرافت کازندہ نمونہ تھے،خودداری کے ساتھ ملنساری،تمکنت کے ساتھ ارباب علم وادب کے ساتھ انکساری ان کی طبیعت کاجوہر تھا۔ انھوں نے اپنے علم وفضل سے بھی خلق خدا کوفیض پہنچایا اور دولت و ثروت سے بھی،ان چند درچند خصوصیات وکمالات کے جامع ہونے کے اعتبار سے مرحوم مسلمانوں کے اس دور میمون و مبارک کی یادگار تھے...

Activities Based on Low Cost Materials Equipment, Glassware, Chemicals in Teaching Chemistry at Secondary School Level in Pakistan

Science education has remained one of the top priority issues of developing countries for the last few decades. In this age of science and technology, the developing countries face an increasing demand for scientific and technical manpower due to the increased awareness and emphasis on rapid industrialization as well as agricultural development on the national level. It Is now well recognized that science education has a direct and very significant influence on numerous activities in the daily life and environment of both rural and urban communities. It is in this context that the natural and physical sciences, study and use of environment and local resources has been recognized as one of the basic areas of school curriculum in many developing countries including Pakistan. Keeping in view the significance, study In hand is selected to design low cost activities based on low cost materials (equipment, glassware, chemicals) in teaching chemistry at secondary school level in Pakistan. The nature of the study is experimental. Two semi standardized academic achievement tests In the selected content areas of chemistry for IX (vli)class were prepared and administered to 9th class as pretest and posttest. Sample was selected randomly. Experimental and Control Groups were formulated from the sample. Experiments were conducted to experimental group with low cost materials and to control group with high cost materials. Data was collected through pretest and posttest, tabulated accordingly and statistical analysis was carried out. On the basis of the analysis, findings, conclusions are being quoted. Recommendations have also been suggested to popularize the use of low cost materials in science education at secondary school level.
