Are millennial travelers ready to switch to branded hostels? Empirical investigation using push-pull-mooring model
Branded hostel, an innovative format, is emerging as a challenger to traditional hotels. This study empirically investigates the switching intentions of millennials to branded hostels using the push-pull-mooring model. The survey data collected from 411 respondents were analyzed using partial least square–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Findings show that hotel-related push effects (satiation, perceived inconvenience and low perceived val…
Foundationalism and empirical reason: On the rational significance of observation
A foundationalist account of our empirical thinking divides propositions we accept into two classes, basic and derivative , and sees the warrant of derivative propositions as accruing to them through their derivation from basic propositions. Such an account needs to answer two questions: which propositions are basic, and whence do basic propositions acquire their warrant? A natural and ancient answer to these questions is that basic propositions …
Précis of Conscious Experience: A Logical Inquiry
Overthrow the Orthodoxy! Replies to Hill, Titus, and Sosa
I respond to three sets of questions and objections to the account of empirical reason I offer in my book Conscious Experience: A Logical Inquiry . (i) In response to doubts expressed by Christopher Hill, I outline the case against Simple Representationalism, the view that experience confers an epistemic status on certain perceptual judgments and that it does so in virtue of its content. (ii) In response to objections of Lisa Titus (née Miracchi)…
Online travel review posting intentions: A social exchange theory perspective

The results revealed that altruism, reputation, economic rewards and venting negative feelings positively influence review posting intentions while cognitive and executional costs negatively influence review posting intentions. Further, I…

Pro-environmental behaviour among tourists visiting national parks: Application of value-belief-norm theory in an emerging economy context
Understanding pro-environmental behaviour (PEB) of tourists visiting protected areas is imperative to mitigate the negative effects of tourism on environment. This study provides empirical support for value-belief-norm (VBN) theory in context of nature based tourists visiting national park in India. The findings indicate that biospheric value has the highest impact on new environmental paradigm, whereas egoistic value negatively influenced new en…
Conscious Experience: A Logical Inquiry
This book aims to offer an account of conscious experience and of concepts that help us understand empirical reasoning and empirical dialectic. The account offered possesses, it is claimed, two virtues. First, it provides great theoretical freedom. It allows the theoretician freedom to radically reconceive the world. The theoretician may, for example, begin with the conception that colors are genuine qualities of physical bodies and may, in light…

Open Innovation at Different Levels for Higher Climate Risk Resilience
With the increase in climate variability, creating knowledge networks becomes important for leveraging the embedded resilience in the communities through cross-pollination of ideas, resources and institutional linkages. Communities have developed knowledge systems around climate-mediated environmental changes since time immemorial. Some social groups have capacity to cope with stress better. They have homeostatic advantage due to either accumulat…
M. Chirimuuta's Adverbialism about Color
M. Chirimuuta's Outside Color is a rich and lovely book. I enjoyed reading it and benefitted from reflecting on its provocative ideas. I begin by briefly placing the book's principal thesis in its historical context, and I go on to reflect on two objections that might be lodged against this thesis
Implementation of prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV programme through private hospitals of Delhi – policy implications
In India, programme for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV is primarily implemented through public health system. State AIDS Control Societies (SACSs) encourage private hospitals to set up integrated counselling and testing centres (ICTCs). However, private hospitals of Delhi did not set up ICTCs. Consequently, there is no information on PMTCT interventions in private hospitals of Delhi. This study was undertaken by Delhi S…
Efficacy of a new model for delivering integrated TB and HIV services for people living with HIV/Aids in Delhi – case for a paradigm shift in national HIV/TB cross-referral strategy

Some criticisms are offered of Barwise and Etchemendy's theory of truth, the principal one being that it violates a feature of truth called “supervenience”
The Revision Theory of Truth
In this rigorous investigation into the logic of truth Anil Gupta and Nuel Belnap explain how the concept of truth works in both ordinary and pathological contexts. The latter include, for instance, contexts that generate Liar Paradox. Their central claim is that truth is a circular concept. In support of this claim they provide a widely applicable theory (the "revision theory") of circular concepts. Under the revision theory, when truth is seen …

Deflationism, the Problem of Representation, and Horwich's Use Theory of Meaning
This paper contains a critical discussion of Paul Horwich's use theory of meaning. Horwich attempts to dissolve the problem of representation through a combination of his theory of meaning and a deflationism about truth. I argue that the dissolution works only if deflationism makes strong and dubious claims about semantic concepts. Horwich offers a specific version of the use theory of meaning. I argue that this version rests on an unacceptable i…
Impact on hydrodynamics of the estuarine region of Mahadayi (Mandovi) river due to change in flow pattern
A proposal to construct a dam on the river Mahadayi (Mandovi) for power generation would change the hydrodynamics of the estuarine stretch of the river. Using DYNHYD, the hydrodynamic model of WASP developed by the USEPA, several space and time dependent parameters were estimated in the stretch of approximately 80 km from the mouth of the river close to Panaji City up to the village of Sonali. The model was calibrated through the observed and pre…
