This study aims to explore the relationship between online marketing dimensions and customer satisfaction within Jordanian companies and distributors. Utilizing a descriptive analytical methodology, the research focused on customers of Jordanian pharmaceutical companies and distributors. A survey was conducted using a questionnaire distributed to a target sample; out of 75 questionnaires, 61 were returned and valid, yielding a response rate of 81.3%. Data from the questionnaires were analyzed using AMOS and SPSS software. The findings indicated a statistically significant correlation between the collective dimensions of online marketing (attraction, engagement, retention, learning, and communication) and customer satisfaction. However, regression analysis showed no significant relationship between the individual dimensions of attraction, engagement, and retention with customer satisfaction. The study found that Jordanian pharmaceutical companies practice digital marketing at a high level, according to the sample responses. A key recommendation from the study is for pharmaceutical products to be promoted through various online marketing channels, including sponsored ads on social media and websites targeting both local and international audiences.

The purpose of the current study is to raise the question about making a comparison between international legislation in the United States, European Union, and legislation of Saudi Arabia derived from Islamic law regarding the poultry slaughtering process and the relationship of that to achieving safe and healthy food for humans. In addition, the study utilized the Holy Qur’an and the texts of the Prophet’s hadith as primary sources. Additionally, various national and international laws, reports, and legislations were referenced as secondary sources for the review. Moreover, this study addresses a research gap by providing a comparative analysis that links Islamic and international legislation regarding poultry slaughter and examines its impact on food quality and safety. The study’s findings indicate that Islamic Sharia provisions are in harmony with the regulations of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia related to poultry slaughtering process. This alignment ensures the primary goal of the slaughter process, which is to quickly get rid of the blood and achieve the well-being of the poultry. Consequently, this results in high quality meat with low microbial content that can be preserved for a longer period compared to regulations in other global markets such as the USA and the European Union.

Poverty, and especially the widening disparity between the rich and the poor, leads to social unrest that can interrupt the harmonious development of human society. Understanding the reasons for income inequality, and supporting the development of an effective strategy to reduce this inequality, have been major goals in socioeconomic research around the world. To identify the determinants of the income gap, we calculated the Gini coefficients for Chinese provinces and performed regression analysis and contribution analysis for heterogeneity, using data from 30 Chinese provinces from 2002 to 2018. We found that urbanization, higher education, and foreign direct investment in eastern China and energy in central and western China were important factors that increased the Gini coefficient (i.e., decreased equality). Therefore, paying more attention to the fair distribution of the factors that can increase the Gini coefficient and investing more in the factors that can reduce the Gini coefficient will be the keys to narrowing the income gap. Our approach revealed factors that should be targeted for solutions both in China and in other developing countries that are facing similar difficulties, although the details will vary among countries and contexts.
