    In this paper, we employ the fractional qq-calculus in solving a triple system of qq-Integral equations, where the kernel is the third Jackson qq-Bessel functions. The solution is reduced to two simultaneous Fredholm qq-integral equation of the second kind. Examples are included. We also apply a result in~[Pacific J. Math. \textbf{275}(1) (2015)63--102] for solutions of dual q2q^2-integral equations to solve certain triple integral equations

    CEO Transformational Leadership and Corporate Social Responsibility

    The overall purpose of this study is to apply transformational leadership theory to improve our understanding of the potential role of CEOs in determining the extent to which their firms engage in corporate social responsibility (CSR). We generate a theoretical argument for the existence of relationships between aspects of transformational leadership and CSR, which we test using data from 56 U.S. and Canadian firms. CEO intellectual stimulation (but not CEO charismatic leadership) is found to be positively associated with the propensity of the firm to engage in "strategic" CSR, or those CSR activities that are most likely to be related to the firm's corporate and business-level strategies. Thus, studies that ignore the role of leadership in CSR may generate imprecise conclusions regarding the antecedents and consequences of these activities. We conclude that there is a need for additional multidisciplinary research bridging micro- and macro-level conceptualizations of the role of leadership in CSR.
