Authors: - FENG WANG , - Manuelita Valencia
Published: August 2024

In the context of the digital transformation of the global economy, the traditional command-and-control leadership can no longer meet the enterprise's demand for employees’ innovation (He et al., 2022). Leadership that serves the needs and development of employees is gradually favored by enterprise leaders and employees. As an emerging leadership style, service-oriented leadership is gradually becoming an important way to promote employees' innovative behavior by meeting employees' needs, providing support, listening to opinions, and sharing decision-making rights with employees (Eva et al., 2019). This paper explores how service-oriented leadership can promote innovative behavior in employees by supporting, listening, and caring. Specifically, this paper is a review on the role of enterprise leader support in promoting employee innovation learning, the impact of social exchange on organizational innovation culture shaping, and the impact of employee engagement on innovation motivation.
Public Administration 5.0: Enhancing Governance and Public Services with Smart Technologies
Authors: - Rachid Ejjami
Published: August 2024

This integrative literature review examines the transformative impact of advanced technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and blockchain, on public administration. It addresses the urgent need for enhanced operational efficiency and transparency through AI-driven decision-making. The study reviews current literature to highlight AI's potential to revolutionize public service delivery, improve smart city initiatives, and enable data-driven policy-making. Significant challenges such as data privacy, algorithmic transparency, and ethical considerations are also identified. The methodology involves a comprehensive review of scholarly articles, reports, and academic publications, focusing on AI applications in public administration and smart technologies. The analysis reveals notable improvements in operational efficiency and transparency due to AI, alongside concerns about biases, transparency, and implementation issues. The findings confirm AI's transformative potential in public administration but emphasize the necessity for ongoing supervision, regular audits, and the development of AI models capable of detecting and rectifying operational anomalies. The study proposes creating positions such as Public Administration AI Ethics Officers (PAAIEOs), Public Administration Data Transparency Managers (PADTMs), and Public Administration Predictive Analytics Officers (PAPAOs) to ensure responsible AI utilization, maintaining the integrity and efficiency of public services while addressing implementation challenges. The review concludes that AI is promising for transforming public administration; however, careful implementation is crucial to uphold operational integrity and resilience. Future research should prioritize longitudinal studies to evaluate AI's long-term impact, focus on addressing implementation concerns, and ensure fair and transparent integration of AI technologies. These findings have significant implications for practice and policy, underscoring the need for robust frameworks and regulatory measures to guide the effective use of AI in public administration.

Published: August 2024

This study explore the binge-watching phenomenon among university students in Lahore, focusing on their motivations and the psychological impacts of extensive Netflix consumption. Utilizing the Uses and Gratification Theory as a framework, the research aims to provide insights into why students engage in binge-watching and how it affects their well-being. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 participants from three universities in Lahore, aged 19 to 24, to gather qualitative data. Thematic analysis identified seven key themes: boredom, self-gratification, post-binge-watching depression, para-social attachment, social comparison, isolation, and procrastination. These themes explained the nature of binge-watching behaviors and their repercussions on mental health and daily routines.The findings suggest that while binge-watching serves as a means to alleviate boredom and stress, it also leads to negative psychological outcomes such as loneliness, depression, and emotional detachment from reality. Participants expressed a strong affinity for media characters and reported using Netflix to fulfill emotional needs and escape from academic pressures and pandemic-related isolation. Understanding the motivations and consequences of binge-watching among university students is significant for developing targeted interventions that promote healthy media consumption habits and support mental well-being in academic setting

Authors: Dos Anjos Oliveira Jessica , Alves Ribeiro de Carvalho-Jr Elildo , Mafra Aquino de Morais Thalinne
Published: August 2024

O envolvimento de populações tradicionais/locais residentes ou próximas de unidades de conservação (UCs) é um princípio do Programa Monitora, iniciativa nacional de monitoramento da biodiversidade, mas depende de remuneração apropriada. O Programa Áreas Protegidas da Amazônia (Arpa), maior financiador do Monitora, tem arranjo robusto e inovador, porém possui modalidades de execução financeira que dificultam a operacionalização pelos gestores, como a falta de mecanismo apropriado de pagamento de monitores comunitários nas UCs da Terra do Meio (Altamira, Pará). Para caracterizar os monitores e qualificar se as dificuldades encontradas na região são compartilhadas por outras UCs amazônicas implementando o Monitora, realizou-se um diagnóstico baseado no conhecimento dos gestores. Enviamos um questionário sobre recursos financeiros, perfil dos monitores, formas de pagamento dos comunitários e desafios na realização de pagamentos, que foi respondido por gestores de 94% das UCs federais amazônicas executando o Monitora. O diagnóstico revelou que comunitários representam mais da metade dos monitores para 38% das UCs. Para 81% das UCs foi reportado recebimento de benefícios sociais pelos monitores, que podem ser suspensos após contratação pontual com serviço de autônomo (indicado para pagamentos via Arpa). Os gestores relataram desvantagens desse mecanismo, sendo que para 58% das UCs foi reportada dificuldade de realizar pagamentos. Gestores de 67% das UCs consideram que a viabilidade do Monitora pode ser comprometida devido Ã  dificuldade de pagamento dos comunitários. Esses resultados devem ser usados para buscar soluções, como auxílio ou bolsa para remunerar monitores, e auxiliar para que um aspecto operacional não comprometa a execução do Monitora.

Published: August 2024

The use of conservation practices, such as level planting, and the use of cover crops are able to reduce the magnitude of erosion processes, reducing losses of soil, water, nutrients and organic carbon. The aim of this study was to compare erosion control using vetiver, bare soil and brachiaria grass. The experiment was carried out over a period of ten months, representing the rainy season in the humid tropical climate of Rio de Janeiro. Erosion was monitored on three Gerlach-type runoff erosion plots with different types of soil cover. Erosion was quantified by analyzing the sediment in runoff samples using the following methods: 1) the evaporation method described in APHA-Standard Methods 2540 B (2005) when the sediment concentration was greater than 200 mg·L-1, and 2) the filtration method described in APHA-Standard Methods 2540 D (2005) when the sediment concentration was less than 200 mg·L-1. During an extreme heavy rainfall event (precipitation of 38.8 mm and rainfall intensity of 13.6 mm·h-1) the vetiver system showed erosion of 1.04 kg·ha-1 while the brachiaria grass had erosion values of 41.66 kg·ha-1, so it is clear that vetiver was more efficient at controlling erosion due to its deep fasciculated roots, which enhance infiltration, and its vegetative character which forms a physical barrier and slows down runoff, reducing erosive energy and retaining sediment. On the other hand, the bare soil showed erosion of 2,531.61 kg·ha-1, which indicates the efficiency of using grasses to control erosion.
