Turning home boredom during the outbreak of COVID-19 into thriving at home and career self-management: the role of online leisure crafting
Authors: Chen I-Shuo 
Published: October 2020

PurposeThis paper studied whether boredom at home due to social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic may motivate individuals to engage in online leisure crafting, thereby contributing to their thriving at home and career self-management. This paper aims to examine whether individuals’ growth need strength influences the impact of home boredom on online leisure crafting.Design/methodology/approachThis paper performed a two-wave longitudinal study involving a group of employees from the hospitality industry (N= 340) in Mainland China. This paper evaluated home boredom, online leisure crafting and growth need strength at Time 1 and thriving at home and career self-management two months later at Time 2.FindingsThe respondents’ experience of home boredom had a time-lagged effect on their thriving at home and career self-management via online leisure crafting. Additionally, their growth need strength amplified the positive impact of home boredom on online leisure crafting.Practical implicationsHospitality managers can motivate employees to engage in crafting online leisure activities at home when they experience home boredom during the outbreak of COVID-19, which may further allow them to experience thriving at home and engage in career self-management. Additionally, managers can develop managerial interventions to improve the growth need strength of employees with low growth needs, which may, in turn, render these employees less likely to tolerate home boredom, thereby increasing the positive impact of home boredom on their online leisure crafting.Originality/valueThis paper offer insights for the boredom literature regarding how individuals’ home boredom caused by social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic might lead to their thriving at home through online leisure crafting. This paper also provides insights for the leisure crafting literature regarding the role of online leisure crafting in individuals’ thriving at home. This paper reveals the role of growth need strength in the impact of home boredom on thriving at home through online leisure crafting.
Effect of online political incivility on partisan attitude: role of issue involvement, moral identity and incivility accountability
Authors: Sharma Isha , Jain Kokil , Singh Gurinder 
Published: October 2020

PurposeThe study investigates the effect of an uncivil comment made by a party representative on social media and tests whether it can lead to a change in observers' attitude toward the party.Design/methodology/approachData are collected from 196 respondents using a scenario-based survey. Proposed model is tested using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).FindingsIt is found that individual's moral identity and issue involvement influence perceived civility of the online post, which in turn affects attitude toward the party as well as the individual. It is observed that for high partisans, effect of perceived civility on attitude toward the party is stronger compared to low partisans. Party's lack of responsiveness to address the uncivil comment from its representative increases party's incivility accountability and lowers the partisan attitude toward the party.Originality/valueThe study presents a novel understanding of how political party representatives can influence the image of the party by engaging in an uncivil discourse on social media. Results support that strong partisan would react more unfavorably indicating that loyalty toward the party cannot be taken for granted.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at: https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/OIR-03-2020-0084
Connecting founder social identity with social entrepreneurial intentions
Authors: Ko Eun-Jeong , Kim Kihwan 
Published: October 2020

PurposeDespite recent advances in research on antecedents of social entrepreneurial intentions, founder social identity has rarely been part of the research effort. This paper aims to investigate how different types of founder social identity affect social entrepreneurial intentions (SE intentions).Design/methodology/approachThis study investigates how different types of founder social identity, such as Darwinians, Communitarians and Missionaries, affect SE intentions. Specifically, this study predicts that entrepreneurs with Darwinian identity would be less likely to form SE intentions, while those with Missionary and Communitarian identities would be more prone to form SE intentions. The hypotheses are tested on a sample of 725 individuals recruited using Amazon Mechanical Turk. Most of the hypotheses, except for Communitarian identity, are supported by the data analysis. The results contribute to the literature on founder social identity and SE intentions and demonstrate that founder social identity is one of the important antecedents of social entrepreneurial intentions.FindingsTwo of the hypotheses were supported by the results. Specifically, this study found a positive relation between Missionary founder social identity (its locus of self-definition is “Impersonal-We”) and social entrepreneurial intentions. This research also confirms that Darwinian founder social identity (its locus of self-definition is “I”) has a negative impact on social entrepreneurial intentions.Originality/valueFirst, a person’s social identity has been largely overlooked in social entrepreneurship intention literature (Bacq and Alt, 2018; Hockerts, 2017; Zaremohzzabiehet al, 2019). The findings provide the empirical evidence that individual-level antecedents, especially one’s membership in a social group (i.e. social identity), exert a significant impact on the formation of SE intentions. Second, among the two types of founder social identity predicted to have a positive influence on SE intentions, only Missionary identity was found to have such a positive impact. The typical Communitarian locus of self-definition of “Personal We,” is less influential than the self-definition of the typical Missionary locus of “Impersonal We.” This might imply that not all types of feelings of belonging to a community have a positive impact on the formation and development of social entrepreneurial intentions. Finally, this study found that Darwinians are less likely to pursue social entrepreneurship although the definition of Darwinians is close to the definition of traditional entrepreneurs (e.g. profit/opportunity seekers). This may signify that the traditional concept of entrepreneurship may not be enough to explain different types of entrepreneurial motivations (e.g. social vs commercial entrepreneurship).

Abstract

The ecological dynamics of co‐flowering communities are largely mediated by pollinators. However, current understanding of pollinator‐mediated interactions primarily relies on how co‐flowering plants influence attraction of shared pollinators, and much less is known about plant–plant interactions that occur via heterospecific pollen (HP) transfer. Invaded communities in particular can be highly affected by the transfer of alien pollen, but the strength, drivers and fitness consequences of these interactions at a community scale are not well understood.

Here we analyse HP transfer networks in nine coastal communities in the Yucatan Mexico that vary in the relative abundance of invasive flowers to evaluate how HP donation and receipt varies between native and alien plants. We further evaluate whether HP donation and receipt are mediated by floral traits (e.g. display, flower size) or pollinator visitation rate. Finally, we evaluated whether post‐pollination success (proportion of pollen tubes produced) was affected by alien HP receipt and whether the effect varied between native and alien recipients.

HP transfer networks exhibit relatively high connectance (c. 15%), suggesting high HP transfer within the studied communities. Significant network nestedness further suggests the existence of species that predominantly act as HP donors or recipients in the community. Species‐level analyses showed that natives receive 80% more HP compared to alien species, and that alien plants donate 40% more HP than natives. HP receipt and donation were mediated by different floral traits and such effects were independent of plant origin (native or alien). The proportion of alien HP received significantly affected conspecific pollen tube success in natives, but not that of alien species.

Synthesis. Our results suggest that HP transfer in invaded communities is widespread, and that native and alien species play different roles within HP transfer networks, which are mediated by a different suite of floral traits. Alien species, in particular, play a central role as HP donors and are more tolerant to HP receipt than natives—a finding that points to two overlooked mechanisms facilitating alien plant invasion and success within native co‐flowering communities.
‘Is Still Not the Blood of the Blessed Martyr Thomas Fully Avenged?’ Thomas Becket's Cult at Canterbury under Henry III and Edward I
Authors: Wilkinson Louise J. 
Published: October 2020

AbstractIn July 1220, the boy king Henry III attended the Translation of St Thomas Becket at Canterbury, whereby the saint's body was transferred from its original tomb in the crypt of Canterbury cathedral to a splendid new shrine in the main body of the church. This article explores the continuing appeal of Becket's cult at Canterbury for elite ecclesiastical and lay circles in thirteenth‐ and early fourteenth‐century England. It argues that the Englishmen, or holders of ecclesiastical office in England, who were canonised as saints in the thirteenth century were associated with St Thomas and his cult. Drawing on the records of the English royal household and wardrobe, alongside letters and charters, this article then examines the reception of Becket's cult at the royal court. Although Henry III was more famous for his adult devotion to St Edward the Confessor, Henry and his wife, Eleanor of Provence, still paid their respects to Becket's shrine at Canterbury. Royal interest in St Thomas of Canterbury, or St Thomas the Martyr, continued, but with added vigour, under Edward I, his wives and his children. Despite St Thomas's appeal for opponents of the English crown, Becket's cult remained firmly connected to the English ruling dynasty.
The Representative of the State: Why the English Parliament Was Distinctive in the Early 17th Century
Authors: Yerby George 
Published: October 2020

AbstractThis article identifies the forms of state development in 16th‐ and 17th‐century England, and shows that they were embraced by parliament rather than the crown, reflecting the change whereby MPs ceased to be mere local representatives and came to be seen as the central representative of the kingdom, traditionally the function of the monarch. Thus parliament assumed a defining role in the new national dimension of foreign policy, working in concert with the Elizabethan government, but generally in opposition to the early Stuarts, who perpetuated a dynastic approach. The most challenging domestic manifestation of parliament as central representative was the long‐term campaign for freedom of trade, pursued by a broad coalition of the merchant community and the gentry in parliament, asserting a principled right of English subjects to be free of arbitrary exactions and restraints, such as the royal prerogative of impositions. The emergent state was structured by a distinctive internal dynamic, based on the sole sovereignty of representative law, established by the expulsion of the universal church. Omni‐competent statute had a unique dual force, responding directly to constituency requirements, and meeting them with definitive national provisions. This was adopted by parliament as the new instrument of good government, but distrusted and sidelined by the Stuart crown. Consequently, in 1641, John Pym bemoaned the absence of parliaments as bereaving the country of the legislative function, which he now saw as ‘that which makes and constitutes a kingdom’. The appropriation of state perspectives reinforced parliamentarian strength and ambitions.
House of Lords Committee Accommodation and Its Use: Restoration and Renewal in the 19th and 20th Centuries*
Authors: Tudor Philippa 
Published: October 2020

AbstractFollowing the 1834 fire, the work of house of lords committees continued virtually without interruption, at first in temporary accommodation and, from 1846, in rooms in the new palace designed by Charles Barry. This article charts the history of house of lords committee activity and the varied use of its accommodation at Westminster from 1834 to the present. Major committee work immediately following the fire included an inquiry into prison reform. Barry's accommodation was scantily fitted out, and quickly needed technical and other adaptations. Committees themselves changed too, with the heaviest phase of private bill activity needed for the creation of the railways tailing off by the late 1860s. Following a low point in committee activity between 1940 and 1970 committee work has developed in fits and starts from 1971 onwards. The further expansion of committees following the Jellicoe committee report of 1992 was accommodated by the reform of private bill procedure, which helped free up committee rooms, and in October 2009, the establishment of the Supreme Court meant that the law lords no longer sat judicially in the large committee rooms 1 and 2. Since 2012, however, the further expansion of committee activity has not been matched by an increase in its accommodation.

Published: October 2020

AbstractNatural red pigments have been widely used as food and cosmetics additives. However, due to toxic byproducts or allergen issues, it is still necessary to look for some other red pigment products. This study proposed combinatorial strategies to improve production of a new kind of red pigments from the fungus Geomyces WNF‐15A, isolated from Antarctica. A high‐production medium was developed by statistical experimental design, which was further simplified for industrial use by single‐factor experiments. Strain breeding by atmospheric room temperature plasma mutagenesis generated a mutant, Geomyces sp. WNF‐15A‐M210, which increased production of red pigments by 24.4% and shortened culture phase by 33.3% comparing with the wild‐type. The production of red pigments by this mutant favored a weak alkaline condition but required only mild dissolved oxygen tension. Control of initial pH 8.5 (process pH around 7.5) increased red pigments production by 19% comparing with natural condition. Precursor and inhibitor addition experiments indicated that the red pigments were synthesized by polyketide pathway, and feeding 6 mmol/L precursor of sodium acetate by three aliquots at days 3 to 5 improved biosynthesis of red pigments by 27%. Finally, the developed culture process was verified in a 5‐L stirred tank bioreactor. The red pigments production of the pH regulation group reached 1.11‐fold of the control and 1.95‐fold of the precursor regulation group, respectively. This study provides high‐production strain, optimized medium, and bioprocess for the possible industrial production of Antarctic Geomyces red pigments in future.Practical ApplicationAntarctic Geomyces red pigments showed high color value, nontoxic characteristic, and good water solubility. It holds potential for industrial use and is under development for food additive in China currently. This study provides an optional manufacturing process for this new kind of red pigments.

Published: October 2020

Thymic adenocarcinoma is an extremely rare neoplasm, and little is known about its pathogenesis and clinical characteristics. A 52‐year‐old man presented to our clinic with severe dyspnea. At initial presentation, massive carcinomatous pleuritis and pericarditis were observed, and a lobulated mass in the anterior mediastinum was found on computed tomography. Cytological examination revealed adenocarcinoma accompanied by signet ring cells; however, his tumor showed aggressive growth without any possibility of treatment, and he died as a result of cancer progression within one month of admission. An autopsy confirmed thymic adenocarcinoma showing various histological features including mucinous, signet ring cell‐like, and trabecular features. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin (CK) (AE1/AE3) but negative for TTF‐1. In addition, some tumor cells were positive for CD5 and KIT. Further examination revealed that tumor cells of the nonmucinous type were positive for CK7, and negative for CK20 and caudal‐type homeobox 2 (CDX2). The tumor cells with mucinous and signet ring‐like features were positive for CK20 and CDX2 and negative for CK7, indicating enteric differentiation. In particular, tumor cells with signet ring cell‐like features indicated widespread lymphangitic carcinomatosis and pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy (PTTM). The presence of signet ring cell‐like features with enteric differentiation is suggestive of a fulminant clinical course due to widespread lymphangiosis carcinomatosa and PTTM in patients with thymic adenocarcinoma.Key points

StrathE2E2: An r package for modelling the dynamics of marine food webs and fisheries
Authors: Heath Michael R. , Speirs Douglas C. , Thurlbeck Ian , Wilson Robert J. 
Published: October 2020

Abstract

We present StrathE2E2, an r package for modelling the whole ecosystem, or ‘big‐picture’ effects of hydrodynamics, temperature, nutrient additions and fishing on continental shelf marine food webs.

StrathE2E2 has two linked parts—a fishing fleet model and an ecology model. The fishing model combines harvesting, discarding and seabed disturbance rates across a range of gears and passes the results into the ecology model.

The ecology model is a network of coupled ordinary differential equations representing the rates of change in nitrogen mass of organic detritus, dissolved inorganic nutrient and coarse guilds of living biomass spanning microbes to megafauna. The equations include representations of feeding, metabolism, reproduction, active migrations, advection and mixing. Environmental driving data include temperature, irradiance, hydrodynamics and nutrient inputs from rivers, atmosphere and ocean boundaries.

The package includes functions for parameter optimization, global sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo estimation of credible intervals for model outputs.

A fully developed and documented implementation for the North Sea is included with the package.
Leveraging spatial information to forecast nonlinear ecological dynamics
Authors: Johnson Bethany , Gomez Marcella , Munch Stephan B. 
Published: October 2020

Abstract

There has been a recent demand for forecasting in ecology, particularly in the field of ecosystem management. Empirical dynamic modelling (EDM), an equation‐free nonlinear forecasting method, is receiving growing attention, but it requires long time series to produce accurate predictions. Though most ecological time series are short, spatial replicates are often available. Here we explore how utilizing available spatial data can improve our ability to forecast ecological dynamics.

There are several ways to incorporate spatial information into EDM and not all have been applied in ecology. We compare spatial EDM approaches used in ecology and physics and introduce a flexible Bayesian model that makes use of prior movement information.

We test these methods on simulated data generated with three population dynamics models with varying levels of complexity, time series length, spatial symmetry and heterogeneity. Adding spatial data generally improves accuracy, though the best method depends on the spatial process. We applied the methods to empirical fisheries data, highlighting the complexity of real population dynamics.

Leveraging spatial data is an effective way to overcome the problem of short ecological time series. Since the best forecasting method depends on the underlying dynamics, we suggest that users apply several in concert and that this may be useful in identifying spatial heterogeneity in dynamics.
Analyst Recommendations, Herding Intensity, and Trading Performance*
Authors: Lien Donald , Hung Pi‐Hsia , Chen Li‐Wen 
Published: October 2020

AbstractThis paper examines how analyst recommendations and investors’ herding influence stock returns and trading performance. Different types of investors display distinct herding intensity. Institutional investors herd significantly more than individuals do and investment trusts exhibit the highest herding intensity. Foreign investors tend to herd in buying (selling) stocks when analysts issue better (worse) recommendations. Investment trusts are inclined to herd in the sell side when analysts issue “sell” recommendations. Institutional buy (sell) herding positively (negatively) correlates to current‐day returns. Individual herding shows the exact opposite pattern. Finally, institutional investors’ higher buy intensity has better trading performance following analysts’ buy‐oriented recommendations.
