• The rising incidence of overeducation in the USlabourmarket, Rumberger, R. W. (1981Economics of Education Review,1(3), 293-314. According to this research paper, reports as regards the changes that occurred between 1960 and 1976 as regards the incidence of over-education and the definition of a discrepancy between the educational requirement of workers job and the educational attainment of the workers were studied in this paper. Estimates were gotten from the aggregate level of workers and separately for the sex and race group. The result observed from this test suggests that the total incidence of over-education has been on the high side in recent times as a result of the skill requirement of jobs that have only slightly changed while the educational attainment of the workers has drastically increased.

• Cognitive ability, cognitive aptitudes, job knowledge, and job performance, Hunter, J. E. (1986).Journal of vocational behaviour,29(3), 340-362. This paper studied several studies that indicate that the general metal ability helps to suggest the rate at which workers will perform in any task given. The first section of this paper indicates that the general and widely known mental ability predicts the training success and the supervisors ratings while the second section explains how the general cognitive ability predicts the objectives and a valid work sample performance with a higher validity ratio. According to path analysis, much of this predictive ability comes from the fact that the general mental performance predicts the job knowledge (check body of abstract for formula). Hence, cognitive ability is an effective method that can be adopted in predicting the performance of workers. 
• Corporate social responsibility in the supply chain: an application in the food industry, Maloni, M. J., & Brown, M. E. (2006). Journal of business ethics,68(1), 35-52.

This framework, however, serves as a standard tool which supports the food industries, practitioners and researchers in the careful examination of operational and strategic supply chain CSR processes.

• Executive pay and independent compensation consultants, Murphy, K. J., & Sandino, T. (2010).Journal of Accounting and Economics,49(3), 247-262. This paper studies how the executive compensation consultant faced problems as a result of discrepancies in the interest that can lead to an increased recommended level of CEO pay which includes the willingness to cross-sell services and to secure the repetition of business. Evidence in both Canada and United States were found that the CEO pay is somewhat higher in industries where the consultant is the main supplier of services and that the pay is even higher in Canadian companies when the money received by consultants for miscellaneous services are larger compared to the fees for the executive compensation services. Hence, this paper studies executive pay as well as independent compensation consultants.
