Examining the role of external factors in influencing green behaviour among young Indian consumers
Authors: Kumar Ramesh , Saha Raiswa , P.C. Sekar , Dahiya Richa 
Published: November 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to measure the influence of peers, and the Government and non-governmental organization (NGO) initiatives on an individual’s attitudinal drivers such as environmental knowledge and environmental concern, which are the reasons for their green purchasing intentions. This concept was applied among the Indian young consumers.

Design/methodology/approach
For the research, a structured online questionnaire was used to obtain responses from 342 Indians from various cities. The participants were 20-25 years of age. SPSS software package was used to refine the data while SmartPLS was used to test the validity of the hypotheses.

Findings
The findings revealed that the Government and NGO initiatives along with peer influence do have a significant effect on a consumer’s environmental knowledge and environmental concerns. Further, this study found a significant positive effect of environmental knowledge and environmental concern on perceived value. In turn, the perceived value had a direct positive impact on green attitude leading to green purchase intention.

Practical implications
This paper provides critical insights for marketers, as well as for governmental agencies and NGOs promoting the conservation of the environment through environmental-friendly practices. These parties aim to generate greater awareness among consumers and impart knowledge about the benefits of green practices.

Originality/value
The studies measuring the impact of external factors on green consumption are scarce. Even the few studies available have measured the direct impact of external factors on green purchase intention. Governmental and NGO initiatives along with peer influence are the stimuli impacting operational factors such as environmental knowledge, environmental concern, perceived value, and green attitude, which, in turn, lead to the response of green purchase intention. This study provides new insights to this relationship by using a stimulus – organism – response framework.

AbstractIntroducing a collection of papers on suppletion looked at from a diachronic angle, this paper surveys questions that have been asked (or should be) and answers that have been considered, in this issue and elsewhere, about how, why, where, and when suppletion originates, with particular lexical items and morphological categories; what happens to suppletion once and as long as it is there; how, why, where, and when suppletion disappears again; and how suppletion fits with particular approaches to morphology and general theories of language.
Sharing information electronically with other hospitals is associated with increased sharing of patients
Authors: Everson Jordan , Adler‐Milstein Julia 
Published: November 2019

AbstractObjectiveOne potential benefit of greater electronic health information exchange is a reduction in the effort required for patients to switch between providers. We therefore assessed whether hospital participation in health information organizations (HIOs) led to increased patient sharing.Data SourcesSecondary data from 2010 to 2016.Study DesignUsing hospital‐pair and year fixed effects regression models, we assessed change in patient sharing volume following HIO participation by hospitals and compared the effect by the level of market competition and by hospital size.Data Extraction MethodsWe used national data on hospital participation in HIOs from the American Hospital Association Information Technology Supplement and data on the volume of Medicare patients shared between pairs of hospitals from 2010 to 2016.Principal FindingsThe volume of patients shared between hospitals increased by 2.6 percent when both hospitals participated in a health information organization (P = .008, 95% CI: 0.7%‐4.5%). This increase was greater in competitive markets (3.1 percent increase, P = .03 95% CI: 0.3%‐5.9%) and between large hospitals (4.3 percent increase, P = .007 95% CI: 1.2%‐7.3%). Participation by only one hospital in a pair had no effect on patient sharing.ConclusionsOur results suggest that an important policy goal motivating the investment in health information exchange has been at least partially achieved. However, our results also support hospital concerns about the competitive implications of engaging in health information exchange. HIO participation appears to facilitate patient movement between hospitals, likely by lowering switching costs and resulting in greater competition.

Published: November 2019

AbstractZein is known to able to form viscoelastic dough with wheat‐like properties under certain conditions. Several studies have been conducted to explain the mechanism behind this ability and to improve the functionality and end‐use quality of zein‐based dough systems. However, most of this research has been conducted using zein in combination with isolated starches or high‐starch flours. To investigate the production of additional zein–whole sorghum flour breads, experiments were conducted to determine factors impacting zein–whole sorghum flour dough and bread quality. Optimizing water levels, using defatted zein and/or sorghum flour, and increasing zein content in dough formulas were investigated as initial formulation steps. Of these factors, increasing zein content from 20% to 30% (flour weight basis) had the greatest impact, resulting in stronger zein‐based dough and improved bread quality. Additives and zein treatments shown to impact zein functionality were then investigated for their effect of zein–whole sorghum flour breads. Mixing zein and whole sorghum flour with 0.5% hydrogen peroxide, 5% ethanol, or 3% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose resulted in improved dough strength and bread quality. Breads made from whole white sorghum flour had improved quality compared to zein‐based breads made with black or high‐tannin whole sorghum flour.Practical ApplicationZein is known to be able to form wheat‐like dough when mixed under the right conditions. Most of the research on zein‐based dough and food products has used high‐starch flours. This project investigated optimizing the production of zein–whole sorghum flour dough and bread as an alternative. Increasing the zein content in the formula and using additives including ethanol and HPMC produced breads from zein–whole sorghum flour that were like those made with zein and pure starch.

Published: November 2019

AbstractMaillard reaction intermediate (MGX) generated from glutathione and xylose in aqueous medium was prepared via the Maillard reaction performed under a two‐stage temperature increase process. The purified MGX was identified by Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance as N‐(1‐deoxy‐d‐xylulos‐1‐yl)‐glutathione (Amadori compound, C15H25O10N3S) with five main isomers. The method of Maillard reaction performed under a two‐stage temperature increase process was further verified by high‐performance liquid chromatography. The optimal reaction time and temperature for the preparation of MGX was determined as 60 min at 90 °C. The yield of MGX was increased from 8.60% to 55.52% through thermal reaction coupled with vacuum dehydration. In addition, rapid and more Maillard‐type volatile compounds were formed in MGX during thermal treatment than that in Maillard reaction products or glutathione‐xylose mixture. Beside, MGX possessed more pleasing meat‐like volatile profile compared with the Amadori compound of glutamic acid‐xylose (AAX), cysteine‐xylose (ACX), and glycine‐xylose (AGX). Therefore, it suggested that the MGX had the potential to achieve a better flavor formation during thermal treatment.Practical ApplicationMaillard reaction intermediates, such as Amadori or Heyns rearrangement products (ARP or HRP), are important flavor precursors, which possess stable physicochemical properties, but tend to degrade into flavor compounds at high temperatures. Maillard reaction intermediate from glutathione and xylose acts as primary flavor enhancers to complete Maillard reaction to produce flavors in the subsequent thermal processing, which can significantly improve and stabilize the flavor quality of the meaty food, and deserves a very broad application prospects. The new developed method will be a significant theoretical basis on research preparation and properties of Maillard reaction intermediates in complex food systems.
Use of Predictive Weather Uncertainties in an Irrigation Scheduling Tool Part II: An Application of Metrics and Adjoints

Published: November 2019

AbstractWe apply predictive weather metrics and land model sensitivities to improve the Colorado State University Water Irrigation Scheduler for Efficient Application (WISE). WISE is an irrigation decision aid that integrates environmental and user information for optimizing water use. Rainfall forecasts and verification performance metrics are used to estimate predictive rainfall probabilities that are used as input data within the irrigation decision aid. These input data errors are also used within a land model sensitivity study to diagnose important prognostic water movement behaviors for irrigation tool development purposes simultaneously performing the analysis in space and time. Thus, important questions such as “how long can a crop water application be delayed while maintaining crop yield production?” are addressed by evaluating crop growth stage interactions as a function of soil depth (i.e., space), rainfall events (i.e., time), and their probabilistic uncertainties.

AbstractIrrigation management consists of many components. In this work we review and recommend rainfall forecast performance metrics and adjoint methodologies for the use of predictive weather data within the Colorado State University Water Irrigation Scheduler for Efficient Application (WISE). WISE estimates crop water uses to optimize irrigation scheduling. WISE and its components, input requirements, and related software design issues are discussed. The use of predictive weather allows WISE to consider economic opportunity‐costs of decisions to defer water application if rainfall is forecast. These capabilities require an assessment of the system uncertainties and use of weather prediction performance probabilities. Rainfall forecasts and verification performance metrics are reviewed. In addition, model data assimilation methods and adjoint sensitivity concepts are introduced. These assimilation methods make use of observational uncertainties and can link performance metrics to space and time considerations. We conclude with implementation guidance, summaries of available data sources, and recommend a novel adjoint method to address the complex physical linkages and model sensitivities between space and time within the irrigation scheduling physics as a function of soil depth. Such tool improvements can then be used to improve water management decision performance to better conserve and utilize limited water resources for productive use.

AbstractRibosomal RNA genes have long been a favoured locus in phylogenetic and metabarcoding studies. Within a genome, rRNA loci are organized as tandem repeated arrays and the copies are homogenized through the process of concerted evolution. However, some level of rRNA variation (intragenomic polymorphism) is known to persist and be maintained in the genomes of many species. In nematode worms, the extent of rRNA polymorphism (RP) across species and the evolutionary and life history factors that contribute to the maintenance of intragenomic RP is largely unknown. Here, we present an extensive analysis across 30 terrestrial nematode species representing a range of free‐living and parasitic taxa isolated worldwide. Our results indicate that RP is common and widespread, ribosome function appears to be maintained despite mutational changes, and intragenomic variants are stable in the genome and neutrally evolving. However, levels of variation were varied widely across rRNA locus and species, with some taxa observed to lack RP entirely. Higher levels of RP were significantly correlated with shorter generation time and high reproductive rates, and population‐level factors may play a role in the geographic and phylogenetic structuring of rRNA variants observed in genera such as Rotylenchulus and Pratylenchus. Although RP did not dramatically impact the clustering and recovery of taxa in mock metabarcoding analyses, the present study has significant implications for global biodiversity estimates of nematode species derived from environmental rRNA amplicon studies, as well as our understanding of the evolutionary and ecological factors shaping genetic diversity across the nematode Tree of Life.

Published: November 2019

BackgroundAdjustment disorder (AjD) is one of the most frequently used diagnoses in psychiatry but a diagnostic definition for AjD was only introduced in release of the ICD‐11. This study sought to develop and validate a new measure operationalizing the ICD‐11’s narrative description of AjD, and to determine the current rate of people meeting the symptoms indicative of AjD in the general population of the Republic of Ireland.MethodsThe International Adjustment Disorder Questionnaire (IADQ) was constructed to measure the core diagnostic criteria of ICD‐11 AjD: stressor exposure, preoccupations with, and failure to adapt to, the stressor, timing of symptom onset, and functional impairment. A nationally representative sample (N = 1,020) of adults from Ireland completed the IADQ.ResultsConfirmatory factor analysis supported construct validity and the reliability estimates were excellent. The IADQ correlated strongly with depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress. The criteria were met by 7.0% of the sample, adjusted for other exclusionary disorders.DiscussionThe IADQ is a measure based on the ICD‐11’s description and produces reliable scores, however it should not be used for clinical assessment until validated with clinical interviews.

AbstractAimThe phase II/III GATSBY study (NCT01641939) showed that trastuzumab emtansine did not have an efficacy benefit over taxane in patients with previously treated, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)‐positive advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer. We evaluated patients from Japanese centers within GATSBY.MethodsIn stage one, patients (randomized 2:2:1) received trastuzumab emtansine 3.6 mg/kg every 3 weeks, trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly, or physician's choice of taxane (docetaxel 75 mg/m² every 3 weeks or paclitaxel 80 mg/m² weekly). In stage two, patients (randomized 2:1) received trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly or taxane. Eligible patients had centrally assessed HER2‐positive disease and progression during or after first‐line therapy. Primary endpoint was overall survival. We present the 2.4 mg/kg weekly data.ResultsEighty‐two patients were randomized (intention‐to‐treat: 48 to trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly, 23 to taxane; September 2012‐August 2014) at 19 sites. Median overall survival was 11.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.3‐16.3) with trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly and 10.0 months (95% CI, 7.1‐18.2) with taxane (unstratified hazard ratio = 0.94, 95% CI, 0.52‐1.72). Trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly, versus taxane, was associated with fewer grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs; 52.1% vs 68.2%) and serious AEs (14.6% vs 18.2%). There were no fatal AEs.ConclusionsEfficacy in Japanese patients within GATSBY was consistent with the overall population; overall survival was not prolonged with trastuzumab emtansine 2.4 mg/kg weekly versus taxane. The safety profile of trastuzumab emtansine was similar to the overall population.
Under what conditions do U.S. and Taiwanese late adolescents feel victimized by their peers?
Authors: Huang Hsun‐Chih , Bellmore Amy 
Published: November 2019

This study investigates whether cultural differences exist between the ways U.S. and Taiwanese college students perceive peer victimization using both an experimental vignette method and an open‐ended question format. A total of 1,125 college students (53% female) from the United States (n = 535) and Taiwan (n = 590) read and responded to vignettes which depicted peer interactions in the college context. The peer interactions varied along three factors expected to be associated with differentiating victimization from affiliative teasing: hostility, playfulness, and relationship closeness. Controlling for individual factors of sex, prior victimization, prior teasing, and emphasis on interpersonal harmony, students perceived more victimization when both hostility and a lack of playfulness were present. Culture interacted with the situational factors such that both hostility and lack of playfulness were stronger predictors of perceived victimization for Taiwanese than for U.S. college students. In open‐ended responses about sensitive topics, “Ability and academic performance” and “Self/thoughts/characters/habits” were more indicative of victimization for Taiwanese college students. “Health and disability” was more salient as indicative of victimization for U.S. college students. Findings from this study are among the first to evaluate signals of peer victimization with a cultural comparison; they can be used to inform victimization intervention programs or socioemotional curriculums in late adolescence to be culturally relevant.
Neoliberalising Education: New Geographies of Private Tuition, Class Privilege, and Minority Ethnic Advancement
Authors: Holloway Sarah L. , Kirby Philip 
Published: November 2019

AbstractGeographic research on neoliberalism has explored the restructuring of educational landscapes wrought through marketisation of preschool, school and higher‐education provision and considered the responsibilisation of parents and children for educational outcomes. This study develops understanding of the contingent emergence of neoliberal educational reform, and its progressive and regressive impacts, through an examination of the burgeoning private tuition market in England and Wales. The paper outlines the contours of the previously hidden supplementary education industry, demonstrating that it reinforces regional and classed inequalities, while opening possibilities for ethnic minority advancement. Conceptually, the paper advances debate about socio‐spatial specificity in neoliberal change, showing that the intersection of policy, free markets and consumer behaviour reshapes the educational landscape in ways that extend beyond state intention and control. Through these processes, contingent market forms are produced that offer social mobility for some, but ensure the social reproduction of enduring regimes of power.

AbstractObjectivesSmooth pursuit eye movement deficits are an established psychosis biomarker across schizophrenia, schizoaffective and psychotic bipolar disorder (BPwP). Whether smooth pursuit deficits are also seen in bipolar disorder without psychosis (BPwoP) is unclear. Here we present data from the Psychosis and Affective Research Domains and Intermediate Phenotypes (PARDIP) study comparing bipolar patients with and without psychotic features.MethodsProbands with BPwP (N = 49) and BPwoP (N = 36), and healthy controls (HC, N = 71) performed eye tracking tasks designed to evaluate specific sensorimotor components relevant for pursuit initiation and pursuit maintenance.ResultsWhile BPwoP did not differ from either BPwP or HC on initial eye acceleration, they performed significantly better than BPwP on early (P < .01) and predictive (P = .02) pursuit maintenance measures, both without differing from HC. BPwP were impaired compared to HC on initial eye acceleration, and on early and predictive pursuit maintenance (all P < .01). In contrast to the three pursuit measures, BPwP and BPwoP were both impaired on general neurocognitive assessments in relation to HC (both P < .001), without a significant difference between the two bipolar patient groups.ConclusionsOur findings support the model that impairments of sensorimotor and cognitive processing as required for early and later predictive smooth pursuit maintenance are relatively specific to those bipolar patients with a history of psychosis. This suggests that the neural circuitry for developing feed‐forward predictive models for accurate pursuit maintenance is associated with the occurrence of psychotic features in bipolar patients. In contrast, generalized neuropsychological impairments did not differentiate the two bipolar patient groups.
