Trust and elderly users' continuance intention regarding mobile health services: the contingent role of health and technology anxieties

PurposeMobile health (mHealth) services are considered an important means of relieving the problems of the aging population. The efficiency of mHealth services can be enhanced by engaging more elderly users and guaranteeing their continued use. However, limited attention has been directed toward investigating elderly users' continuance intention regarding mHealth services. The purpose of this paper is to explain elderly users' continuance intention by investigating the contingent role of technology anxiety and health anxiety on affective trust and cognitive trust.Design/methodology/approachSurvey data were collected from 232 elderly users to verify the research model and hypotheses based on structural equation modeling (SEM). FindingsThis study revealed that both affective and cognitive trust enhance elderly users' continuance intention regarding their use of mHealth services. Health anxiety strengthens the effect of cognitive trust but weakens the effect of affective trust with regard to continuance intention. Furthermore, technology anxiety strengthens the effect of affective trust but not the effect of cognitive trust with regard to continuance intention.Originality/valueThis study is one of the first to examine elderly users' continuance intention regarding mHealth services use from the perspective of affective and cognitive trust, thus enriching the extant literature on the use of mHealth services. Additionally, this study sheds light on the contingent effects of technology anxiety and health anxiety on affective and cognitive trust, which have been neglected by previous research.

Comparison of methods of estimation for a goodness of fit test – an analytical and simulation study

Multilevel modelling is a novel approach to analyse data which consist of a hierarchical or a nested structure. With advancements in multilevel modelling, there has been an advancement in the estimation techniques and also in goodness-of-fit tests which are vital to assess the fit of a model. However, these goodness-of-fit tests are not as yet tested to be suitable for models estimated using different estimation techniques. This study aims to conduct a comparison of methods of estimations for use in a goodness-of-fit test which is developed for binary response multilevel models. The comparison is based upon the mathematical background, extensive simulations and an application to a real-life dataset.
Impact of Mining on Nutritional Status of Women of Reproductive Age Residing in Mining Affected Talukas of Ballari District

Mining is a major economic activity in many developing countries like India, China, South Africa and Brazil. Whether it is of small or large scale are inherently destructive to the environment. During different stages of mining, it adversely affects the natural environment and cultural heritage at both macro and micro level (Patra et al., 2015). In micro level due to gender equality domain in the family and community, women for the most are negatively affected well being. Though women directly not involved in mining activities but expose to harsh environment during water and fire wood collection leads to enormous health problems (Yeboah, 2008).

Deformation Law of the Diaphragm Wall during Deep Foundation Pit Construction on Lake and Sea Soft Soil in the Yangtze River Delta

So far, there have been a large number of diaphragm walls in the Yangtze River Delta as engineering examples of deep foundation pit maintenance structures in subway stations, but there is a lack of systematic research and summary on the deformation characteristics of ground connecting walls. This study aimed to clarify the deformation law of the diaphragm wall during the excavation of a deep foundation pit in a soft soil region. Based on the monitoring data of the diaphragm wall of the deep foundation pit of the Hangzhou metro station, the monitoring data of the deep foundation pits of 15 subway stations in Shanghai and Ningbo cities around Hangzhou were considered. Grouping and classification methods were used to analyze the similarities and differences in the deformation characteristics of the diaphragm wall in the three regions. The results indicate the following: the maximum lateral deformation of the diaphragm wall in Hangzhou increases linearly with the relative depth of the maximum lateral deformation. The maximum lateral deformation of the foundation pit in Hangzhou is 0.072% H∼0.459% H, with a mean of 0.173% H. The wall deformation in Hangzhou varies significantly with the depth of the foundation pit, but the influence of the depth of the foundation pit on the wall deformation is considerably less than that in Shanghai and Ningbo. The corresponding position of the maximum lateral deformation in the excavation depth increases linearly with the excavation depth of the foundation pit, and the corresponding position of the lateral deformation of the diaphragm wall in Shanghai is more affected by the excavation depth of the foundation pit. The lateral deformation of the diaphragm wall increases rapidly in the range of 0 H–0.5 H, and the maximum lateral deformation occurs at 0.5 H–1.1 H.
Analysis of Cinnamomum Land Suitability and The Conservation Efforts at Eka Karya Bali Botanic Garden

Cinnamomum is an aromatic plant that have high economic value. At the Eka Karya Bali Botanic Garden Plant Conservation Center, the Cinnamomum collection has a problem, that is drought and deciduous leaves. The purpose of this study is to determine the land suitability class and climate of the growth of Cinnamomum collections. The method used is by matching the Cinnamomum growth conditions data to the actual data on the condition of the land. The results show that the level of land suitability for Cinnamomum collections is S3 (marginally suitable) with a limiting factor is water availability. Strategies that can be used to reduce the impact of excess water are water management and the application of organic matter.
Does Media Attention Lower Debt Financing? International Evidence

ABSTRACT This article examines the association between media attention and debt financing through a number of channels associated with information asymmetry reduction and whether this relationship changes with cross-country institutional environment characteristics. Focusing on a comprehensive international dataset, we find that overall media coverage is negatively related to firm leverage levels. Media-focused variables directly associated with information asymmetry levels, including press-initiated news, non-financial news, and the extent of positive news sentiment, are also negatively related to firm leverage ratios. Furthermore, the country-level institutional environment provided a substituting rather than legitimizing influence on the relationship between media news coverage and firm financing decision-making.
Pricing in a Competitive Stochastic Insurance Market

Abstract This paper studies a one-period stochastic game to determine the optimal premium strategies of non-life insurers in a competitive market. Specifically, the optimal premium strategy is determined by the Nash equilibrium of an n -player game, in which each player is assumed to maximise the expected utility of terminal wealth. The terminal wealth is stochastic, since the number of policies and the size of claims are considered to be random variables. The total loss of each insurer is described by the collective risk model. The expected number of policies is affected by all the premiums in the market and further investigated by two distinct demand functions. Both models have an exponential functional form, that is characterised by market and price sensitivity parameters. The demand in the first model is zero for premiums above a given threshold, whereas the second model does not include such restriction. The pure strategy Nash equilibrium premiums are given as solutions to constrained optimisation problems. For the first model we prove the existence and uniqueness of a pure strategy Nash equilibrium, whereas for the second model we provide a formula when it exists. Two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the applicability of our findings.
Global high-resolution estimation of cropland suitability and its comparative analysis to actual cropland distribution

: Global 500-m (18-arcsec) resolution cropland suitability was estimated using recently developed high-resolution global cropland data and a digital elevation model. The high-resolution estimation more precisely represented topo‐ graphical constraints to agriculture that were not adequately reflected in previous low-resolution estimates. It also suc‐ cessfully suppressed the overestimation of cropland suit‐ ability on areas with steep slopes. Furthermore, the distinc‐ tion of rainfed and irrigated cropland removed suitability overestimation induced by human agricultural intervention and enabled more natural and realistic estimation of crop‐ land suitability. The comparative analysis between the esti‐ mated land suitability and actual cropland distribution revealed that, if only natural condition is considered, it is possible to expand cropland area by 9.25 million km 2 , which is more than needed in the future while socio-economic factors controlling cropland suitability should be considered for more practical assessment. The newly developed highest-resolution cropland suitability map is expected to contribute to solving upcoming water, energy, and food issues, by integrating with water resource models and biomass studies.

Spatial and temporal overlaps of top predators: Dhole, tiger and leopard, and their potential preys in Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand

Abstract. Charaspet K, Sukmasuang R, Khoewsree N, Pla-Ard M, Paansri P, Keawdee B, Chanachai Y, Bhumpakphan N. 2021. Spatial and temporal overlaps of top predators: Dhole, tiger and leopard, and their potential prey in Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand. Biodiversitas 22: 580-592. The study of the spatial-temporal overlap of top predators and their prey is important to understand competition among predators and predator-prey relationships so that the viable populations of predators and other animals can be sustained. This research aimed to study the abundance of three top predators: Dhole (Cuon alpinus), tiger (Panthera tigris) and leopard (Panthera pardus), and their potential wild prey in Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand, and to investigate the spatial-temporal overlap between those three predators, and their potential wild prey. We tested two significant hypotheses: (i) tiger and leopard had the highest spatial-temporal overlap and the spatial overlap of dhole and leopard was higher in comparison to dhole and tiger due to a higher prey overlap; (ii) the three species of large carnivore avoided spatial-temporal overlap even if they were in the same area. The study was conducted using camera traps. In addition, the spatial-temporal overlap of large carnivores and their potential prey was studied to understand the important species of prey of these large carnivores. The results showed that the spatial overlap of tiger and leopard was the highest. Dhole had significant spatial overlap with leopard, which was higher in comparison to dhole and tiger. A significant temporal overlap of dhole and leopard was not found. Also, a significant temporal overlap of tiger and leopard was not found. The results were based on hypotheses that conformed to the niche overlap index of the potential prey and the temporal overlap coefficient. There were ten important species of potential prey of large carnivores: Sambar deer (Rusa unicolor), red muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak), gaur (Bos gaurus), banteng (Bos javanicus), wild boar (Sus scrofa), Malayan porcupine (Hystrix brachyura), large Indian civet (Viverra zibetha), Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus), pig-tailed macaque (Macaca nemestrina) and red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus). The important recommendation is the protection of the sanctuary from wildfires which spread from the outside in, especially in dry evergreen forest. Food resources of herbivores in the area must be managed, as well as the prevention of epidemics from livestock to wild animals.
Career stability in turbulent times: A cross-cohort study of mid-careers in Finland

In this article, we investigate whether the mid-career stability of Finnish men and women has changed for the birth cohorts 1958 to 1972 and, if so, what the driving forces are behind such changes. We analyse career stability during a 15-year period following the age of 30 using ‘career turbulence’ indicators. To identify the impact of cyclical and structural changes in the labour market, we analyse the association between initial employment status and sector with subsequent career stability. We distinguish between sectors that are exposed to a greater or lesser extent to global competition, those that are characterised by goods production or service provision, and those that are part of the market or non-market sector. In a series of OLS regression and regression decomposition analyses, we also control for the impact of education, regional unemployment and family-formation processes. The results show little change in mid-career stability across cohorts. Stability increased somewhat when only including transitions between employment and non-employment, whereas slight destabilisation was observed when accounting for changes between jobs. The findings indicate that the small changes in stability across cohorts were mostly driven by structural changes in the labour market, albeit with different mechanisms for men and women.
Effects of nitrogen rate and nitrogen form on glycine uptake by pakchoi (Brassica chinensis L.) under sterile culture

ABSTRACT It is well known that plants are capable of taking up intact amino acids. However, how the nitrogen (N) rates and N forms affect amino acid uptake and amino acid nutritional contribution for plant are still uncertain. Effects of the different proportions of nitrate (NO3−), ammonium (NH4+) and 15N-labeled glycine on pakchoi seedlings glycine uptake were investigated for 21 days hydroponics under the aseptic media. Our results showed that plant biomass and glycine uptake was positively related to glycine rate. NO3− and NH4+, the two antagonistic N forms, both significantly inhibited plant glycine uptake. Their interactions with glycine were also negatively related to glycine uptake and glycine nutritional contribution. Glycine nutritional contribution in the treatments with high glycine rate (13.4%–35.8%) was significantly higher than that with low glycine rate (2.2%–13.2%). The high nutritional contribution indicated amino acids can serve as an important N source for plant growth under the high organic and low inorganic N input ecosystem.
Demand side climate change mitigation actions and SDGs: literature review with systematic evidence search

To strengthen current discourse on acceleration and scale up of the emissions mitigation actions by sector-specific demand side actions, information on the intersection of three dimensions becomes useful. First, what kind of actions help in avoiding, shifting and improving demand for activities/services and resultant emissions to help in deciding choices for actions; second, how these three categories of actions are linked to the wider impact on human wellbeing represented by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework; and third, who are the actors associated with these mitigation actions. These three steps become important in the targeted scaling up of actions through policy interventions. This study undertakes a review of the literature between 2015 and 2020 with systematic evidence searching and screening. The literature search has been conducted in Scopus Database. From over 6887 literature in the initial search, 294 relevant literature were finally reviewed to link demand side interventions of avoid-shift-improve (ASI) categories to SDGs. It also maps these actions to actors who can lead the changes. Results show that a wide range of improvement actions are already helping in incremental steps to reduce demand and emissions in various services like mobility, shelter and industrial products. However, ASI categories provide more distinct mitigation actions. All actions need support of innovation, infrastructure development and industrialization. Actions that interact with several SDGs include active mode of transport, passive building design, cleaner cooking, and circular economy. Positive links of these actions to multiple SDGs are overall very strong; however, few trade-offs have been observed. These are mostly related to distributional impact across social groups which highlight the need for policy attention and hard infrastructure design changes. Mitigation and wider benefit outcomes cannot be achieved by individual or household level actions alone. They require the involvement of multiple actors, interconnected actions in sequence as well as in parallel, and support of hard infrastructure. Our results show that in mobility services, policy makers supported by spatial planners and service delivery providers are the major actors. In industry, major actors are policy makers followed by spatial planners and innovators. For buildings, key actors include spatial planners followed by policy makers. Besides these, strategic information sharing to enhance user awareness and education plays an important role in shaping behaviour. Digitalization, information and communication, and interactive technologies will play a significant role in understanding and modifying people’s choices; however, these would also require regulatory attention.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of portland composite cement (PCC) 50 kg papercraft bag at PT. Semen Padang

PT. Semen Padang produces several cement types, including PCC, with a total production of up to 6,568,354 tons in 2018. PCC production reached 54% of the total, where the size of 50 kg bag dominates the production with 93%, and the use of papercraft bags as the cement packaging is 78.39%. This research aims to analyze the environmental impacts of the production of 1 ton of PCC 50 kg paper craft bag using the LCA method. The gate-to-gate approach applies as the boundary, ranging from raw mill till packing unit. The impact assessment method uses IMPACT 2002+ to assess the environmental impact of the production. The result shows that the highest environmental impacts are global warming, non-renewable energy, and respiratory inorganics, with the value amounted to 0.10884252 Pt. The process of calcination and coal used in the kiln, packaging transport by diesel-powered trucks, and electricity use is the main contributor to the impact value. In order to improve the PCC production, it is recommended to have an alternative fuel on the kiln unit using rice husks or Mischantus giganteus.
