Sectoral insights into corporate insolvency: a comprehensive analysis of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) outcomes in India
Authors: Ravichandra Rao Nishanthini , Kasture Jayendra 
Published: December 2024

Purpose
This study aims to analyse the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) in India, emphasizing the unique challenges faced by different sectors. It highlights that 45.23% of admitted cases result in liquidation or resolution, underscoring the need for sector-specific provisions in the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The current framework’s limitations lead to higher haircuts and lower recovery rates. Sector operates under general provisions of IBC, which do not include specific clauses designed to address their particular requirements. The implementation of sector-specific strategies is essential for improving outcomes for both distress companies and their creditors. This approach will significantly enhance the efficacy of the insolvency resolution process.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses data from the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) through March 2024. It analyses 7,567 cases admitted under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), 2016, focusing on sectoral insolvency across various industries such as manufacturing, real estate, constructions, hotels and restaurants, wholesale and retail trade, electricity, transport, storage, communications and others. It analyses data-driven decision-making approach by using formulas to calculate the key metrics such as insolvency rate, recovery rate and haircut rate from a large data set.

Findings
The overall insolvency rate is recorded at 45.23% with nearly half of the cases resulting in either liquidation or resolution plans. Out of the total cases, 2,476 resulted in liquidation, while 947 were resolved through approved plans. The recovery rate is 32.08%, indicating that less than one-third of admitted cases have been recovered. The average haircut rate is 67.89%, indicating substantial reductions in claims to facilitate resolutions. This sectoral analysis reveals that certain industries such as real estate and manufacturing are disproportionately affected, emphasizing the necessity for targeted interventions.

Originality/value
This study’s lies in its sector analysis and use of comprehensive data, from March 2016 to March 2024 from the IBBI. This paper caters to a unique sector and brings a novel viewpoint and valuable insights to the existing literature on insolvency processes in India.

Seeing through a polarized world: a narrative approach to understanding stakeholders
Authors: Gualtieri Gastone , Lurati Francesco 
Published: December 2024

PurposeThe literature presents several frameworks for stakeholder analysis, mainly focusing on identification and characterization. However, there is a notable lack of frameworks aimed at comprehensively understanding stakeholders’ perspectives. Neglecting stakeholders’ viewpoints risks biasing overarching analyses, given the relational and perspective–based nature of stakeholders’ relevance and characteristics. Moreover, this gap is particularly salient in today’s polarized landscape, where understandings of issues can markedly diverge. To address this gap, this paper introduces a stakeholder analysis framework designed to facilitate a deeper understanding of stakeholders’ perspectives.Design/methodology/approachThis paper introduces a narrative approach to stakeholder analysis through conceptual arguments and illustrates it through a case study – the introduction of 5G technologies in Italy.FindingsThe paper illustrates how a narrative approach to stakeholder analysis enhances an understanding of stakeholders’ perspectives by revealing issue-specific sentiments and assumptions, objectives and expectations regarding other stakeholders’ behaviors and relationships in place.Originality/valueIntroducing a narrative approach to understanding stakeholders’ perspectives fills a gap in the literature on stakeholder analysis. This proves valuable for managers and is conceptually relevant, fostering a systemic approach to stakeholder thinking in a polarized world.
Experiences of self-injury among staff and patients in a forensic psychiatric hospital
Authors: Visser Roos , Vinken Sim , Verstegen Nienke , de Vogel Vivienne 
Published: December 2024

Purpose
Self-injury is common in forensic psychiatric settings. Recent research offers some insights into the functions and management of self-injurious behaviour but generally focusses on either the experiences of staff or patients. This study aims to explore the experiences of both staff and patients with non-suicidal self-injury in a Dutch forensic psychiatric hospital.

Design/methodology/approach
In total, 6 patients and 11 staff members were interviewed about the functions they ascribe to self-injurious behaviour, the emotional experience provoked by this behaviour and the management of self-injurious behaviour. The interviews were transcribed and analysed using a thematic analysis.

Findings
Four main themes resulted from the analysis: functions; emotional distancing; patient needs; and management. Overall, findings illustrate that staff reports limited knowledge of the different functions of self-injury. To circumvent potential automatic stereotypical judgement, staff should proactively engage in conversation about this topic with their patients. In managing self-injurious behaviour, clarity and uniformity among staff members should be promoted, and collaboration between the staff and patients is desirable. Staff recognised the potential benefit of a management guideline. Staff may find detached coping strategies to be effective but should be vigilant to not let this evolve into excessive detachment.

Practical implications
Increased knowledge and awareness of self-injury functions among staff can allow for better understanding and evaluation of self-injury incidents. Circumvention of automatic, stereotypical judgement of self-injurious behaviour is warranted, and more accessible explanations of the variety of functions of self-injury should be used. More proactive engagement in conversations about functions of self-injury by staff, can facilitate this. Detached coping can help staff to remain resilient in their job, but requires vigilance to prevent this from turning into excessive detachment. Clarity and uniformity among staff when managing self-injury incidents is considered beneficial by both patients and staff. A guideline may facilitate this. When imposing restrictions on patients, staff should strive to establish collaboration with the patient in determining the course of action and ensure the restriction is temporary.

Originality/value
The impact of self-injurious behaviour on all those involved can be enormous. More research is needed into experiences of both patients and staff members regarding the impact, motivations, precipitants and functions of self-injurious behaviour, and effective treatment of it.
Community sports as a conduit for police–youth relationships: a scoping review
Authors: Blomqvist Mickelsson Tony , Nordström Anders , Rasoal Chato , Ghazinour Mehdi 
Published: December 2024

PurposeThis paper sought to bring together police science and sport-for-development (SFD) with a scoping review of the empirical literature on at-risk youth and police relationship-building in the context of sport interventions.Design/methodology/approachWe conducted a scoping review with a Setting, Perspective, Intervention, Comparison and Evaluation (SPICE) model to systematically examine existing studies on the involvement of police in sports-based youth development programs. A total of 1,247 records were identified, and ten empirical research studies were included in the review.FindingsThe review identifies the critical role of stakeholders, especially coaches and community leaders, in facilitating police–youth contact. Coaches often serve as boundary-spanners, building trust between police officers and at-risk youth. Police involvement in these programs is multifaceted, with officers participating as teammates, leaders or mentors. This participation helps dismantle barriers and foster positive relationships but shows that different roles are associated with different benefits and risk factors. Relatedly, the review highlights potential risks such as the hyper-criminalization of youth, emphasizing the need for program designs that promote equality and collaboration.Originality/valueThis paper provides the first significant steps toward conceptualizing the role of police within sport interventions by integrating community policing and SFD literature. We advocate for interdisciplinary collaboration between police science and SFD scholars to further develop police–youth relationships.
Corporate social responsibility in emerging markets: the role of reciprocity in business-government relations
Authors: Thanetsunthorn Namporn , Wuthisatian Rattaphon 
Published: December 2024

Purpose
Despite the rapid growth of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in emerging markets, there remains a need in the current literature for deeper insights into the factors influencing CSR practices in these contexts. This study aims to address this research gap and enhance the discourse on CSR in emerging markets by exploring the reciprocal relationship between business and government and its potential role in driving firms’ CSR efforts in these burgeoning economies.

Design/methodology/approach
The study is grounded in the theory of reciprocity and integrates insights from existing literature to posit that, within a reciprocal relationship, firms respond positively to government regulatory support by actively participating in CSR initiatives. To test this hypothesis, data from prominent sources, including the CSRHub database, the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business, and the International Country Risk Guide, are gathered, yielding a sample of nearly 1,500 firms operating in diverse emerging markets. A series of empirical tests are then conducted to validate the existence of the reciprocal relationship and its influence on firms’ CSR efforts.

Findings
The findings reveal strong evidence of a reciprocal relationship between business and government in emerging markets. When the government provides favorable regulatory support, firms tend to reciprocate by shouldering greater responsibility in promoting societal well-being, specifically through active participation in CSR initiatives directed toward the well-being of the community in which they operate. These findings are robust across various estimation methods.

Research limitations/implications
The study advances the understanding of CSR in emerging markets and provides valuable insights into the role of reciprocity in promoting CSR in real-world settings. This offers promising avenues for future theoretical and empirical research in the field of CSR.

Practical implications
Policymakers are urged to recognize the significance of business-government relations in fostering CSR. Developing a supportive regulatory environment can motivate firms to invest in CSR, benefiting both businesses and the communities they serve. For businesses, aligning CSR initiatives with community needs can foster a mutually beneficial relationship with the government, leading to greater social benefits and competitive advantages.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study pioneers the application of the reciprocity theory to explain the interplay between business and government in shaping firms’ CSR endeavors in emerging markets.
Foundations and frontiers in precision teaching: purpose, standards, technology, and community
Authors: Ferris Kelly , Fabrizio Michael 
Published: December 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to provide a commentary to (Reagan, 2024; this issue) explore key considerations for advancing precision teaching, a data-driven approach that remains impactful in fostering educational and behavioural change.

Design/methodology/approach
Addressing four central topics – charting with purpose, balancing standards with expanding applications, using technology and relying on communities of practice – this paper discusses practices to strengthen and sustain the precision teaching community.

Findings
Charting with purpose underscores the importance of using data to guide informed, meaningful decisions. Balancing standards with expanding applications addresses the challenge of maintaining methodological rigour while adapting to new contexts. Thoughtful use of technology is presented as both a tool and a potential limitation, particularly for early-career precision teachers learning standard charting principles. Finally, reliance on communities of practice emphasises the mentorship and collective wisdom that supports precision teachers across stages of their careers.

Originality/value
By integrating these elements, this paper offers a framework to guide the precision teaching community in navigating emerging opportunities and sustaining its foundational principles.
Beyond left and right: The role of system trust in COVID‐19 attitudes and behaviours across eight western countries
Authors: NIELSEN LOUISE HALBERG , PETERSEN MICHAEL BANG 
Published: December 2024

AbstractDuring the COVID‐19 pandemic, public opinion regarding restrictions and lockdowns was quickly characterized by significant disagreement. In a societal crisis such as COVID‐19, it is important to understand the drivers behind citizens’ attitudes and behaviours. Political disagreement related to COVID‐19 restrictions and lockdowns has often been interpreted as an ideological or partisan divide along the left‐right dimension of political opinion. Here, we argue that there is more to unpack. There is increasing awareness that public opinion is structured by both left‐right orientation and trust in the system. In this paper, we examine the divide in COVID‐19 attitudes and behaviours and compare the influence of ideology and system trust as drivers across countries and across time during the pandemic. Based on monthly surveys from eight countries (the United States, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Hungary, France and Italy) from September 2020 to July 2021 (total sample of 49,414 respondents), we show that citizens with right‐wing ideologies and those who do not trust ‘the system’ perceived a lower threat from the coronavirus, were less supportive of government measures against the virus, report having changed their behaviour less and report lower intentions to vaccinate against COVID‐19 compared to citizens with left‐wing ideologies and those with high system trust. These results are stable across time and across countries. We also find that behavioural differences are larger between those who support the system and those who do not than between those with right‐ and left‐wing ideological outlooks, respectively. This implies that system trust is at least as important as ideology in terms of shaping cleavages in COVID‐19 attitudes and behaviours. The results suggest that in order to increase public support for societal responses during a crisis, it is not only important to appeal to both sides of the ideological spectrum, but also to appeal to those who do not trust ‘the system’.

ABSTRACTThe acoustic ecology of a previously unexamined dolphin population in the Mediterranean was assessed by investigating how sound emissions and acoustic features are influenced by concurrent conditions. Whistles and click‐trains emission rates were compared among different environmental, social and behavioural conditions. Structural variability of 3928 good/high‐quality vocalizations was analysed in relation to contexts through a two‐stage approach. First, two multivariate MANOVA‐models were fitted considering the entire set of acoustic parameters extracted from whistles and click trains, to investigate the effect of concomitant factors on the overall acoustic structure of each vocalization. Subsequently, GLMM models were applied to each acoustic feature individually to explore its response to different contextual factors. Emission rates increased significantly with calves and in larger groups, with also a positive effect of socialization on whistles and of muddy/sandy seabed and depth on impulsive sounds. The multivariate approach showed that all contextual factors influenced sounds’ structure, with whistles being strongly affected by behaviour and calves’ presence. The GLMM models highlighted that each acoustic parameter varied differently in response to specific factors, with (1) increasing trends in whistles’ duration and inflection points during interaction with fishery and decreasing ones during socializing, and (2) decreasing inter‐click‐intervals and increasing click‐repetition‐rates in larger groups and during interactions with fishery. These results provide new findings on the acoustic plasticity of bottlenose dolphins and a more comprehensive view of the magnitude of the social, environmental and behavioural influence, highlighting how the complexity of the species’ acoustic repertoire has yet to be unravelled at the local level.
