Participation in decision-making and work outcomes: evidence from a developing economy
Authors: Behravesh Elaheh , Abubakar A. Mohammed , Tanova Cem 
Published: November 2020

PurposeAlthough there is general agreement that employee participation in decision-making (PDM) has individual and organizational benefits, an important question remains about the possibility that it may also have certain individual and organizational costs as well. This article presents an “episodic process model” that accounts for both the bright and possible dark sides of participation. The model explains how PDM might boost employee hope and self-efficacy, which in turn may lead to two distinct work outcomes–job satisfaction and behavior.Design/methodology/approachIn order to test the model, data (n = 269) were collected from bank employees in two waves. A variance-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was utilized to analyze the data.FindingsResults from variance-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) show that employee PDM indeed exerts a positive impact on positive psychological resource capacities: hope, self-efficacy and job satisfaction. Hope, in turn, has a positive influence on job satisfaction and a negative influence on job-search behavior. Bias-corrected bootstrapping analysis demonstrated that the relationship between employee PDM and job satisfaction is mediated by hope.Originality/valueInsights for practitioners in a developing economy and possible areas of future research are highlighted.

Impacts of variable magnetic field on a ferrofluid flow inside a cavity including a helix using ISPH method
Authors: Aly Abdelraheem M. , Ahmed Sameh Elsayed , Raizah Zehba 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to study the unsteady ferrofluid flow with a hot source helix inside a cavity under the impacts of a variable magnetic field by using the incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics method.

Design/methodology/approach
The governing equations are formulated by considering the basics of the magnetohydrodynamic and ferrohydrodynamics. Different locations of a variable magnetic source outside the geometry are investigated. The helical coils are extensively applied in the cooling and heating of air conditioners and heat pumps. Computations were carried out for different lengths of the heated helix (0.2 ≤ Lh ≤ 0.8), different locations of the magnetic source, (a = 0.5, b = −0.01), (a = 0.5, b = 1.01), (a = 1.01, b = 0.5), (a = −0.01, b = 0.5), different numbers of the inner helix (one helix, two helixes and three helixes) and different values of the nanoparticles volume fraction (0% ≤ ϕ ≤ 10%).

Findings
The outcomes of the investigations revealed that an increase in the lengths of a helix by 0.4 results in a reduction of the stream function by 25.60%. In addition, when the magnetic wire is located near the center of the right wall, the maximum values of the average Nusselt number are obtained while the smallest values of the average Nusselt number are given when the magnetic source is located near center of the top wall.

Originality/value
The novelty of this paper is investigating the natural convection flow from two different models of an inner hot helix inside a cavity with considering different locations of variable magnetic sources.
Effect of R&D intensity on the innovative performance of manufacturing companies. Evidence from Ecuador, Peru and Chile
Authors: Carvache-Franco Orly , Gutiérrez-Candela Glenda , Guim-Bustos Paola , Carvache-Franco Mauricio , Carvache-Franco Wilmer 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
This paper aims to examine the relationship between research and development (R&D) intensity and innovative performance and R&D intensity as a moderating variable in the relationship between sources of information and innovative performance.

Design/methodology/approach
This is a quantitative, nonexperimental, cross-sectional study of the data collected from national surveys of innovation activities from Ecuador, Peru and Chile where the investigation was carried out. A bivariate probit regression was applied.

Findings
The results of the investigation pinpoint that R&D intensity is positively related to the innovation of products and processes in Ecuador and Peru. However, no relationship was found in Chile. As a moderating variable of the information sources (customers, suppliers and competitors), and the innovation of products and processes, it shows different results in the three countries examined.

Research limitations/implications
This study contributes to the literature with evidence in countries with low rates of investment in R&D in the countries examined, this relationship does not always exist; this relationship is considered to be dependent on the complexity of the knowledge and internal capabilities of the company required to achieve innovation, and this complexity could vary according to the type of manufacturing and technology level of the companies. Thus, in manufacturing companies of less complexity to achieve the necessary knowledge for innovation, low rates of investment in R&D are sufficient for the relationship to exist.

Practical implications
By increasing their R&D intensity, companies acquire technology and develop internal skills and capabilities that boost their innovative potential. Nevertheless, it is not enough to increase R&D intensity to take advantage of external sources of information, it is also necessary to boost the absorptive capacity to assimilate and take advantage of external knowledge.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the scarce evidence that exists, on the literature in developing countries, on the effect of R&D intensity on innovative performance and provides evidence of R&D intensity as a moderating variable of the relationship between sources of information and innovative performance.
Organisational resilience: a qualitative study about how organisations handle trends and their effects on business models from experts’ views
Authors: Granig Peter , Hilgarter Kathrin 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
Organisations need to tackle emerging trends that affect business models (BM) by modifying, changing or re‐designing their models. Attending this complex environment by understanding trends and the strategies actors use to handle these competing demands is strategically important for innovation management and sustaining organisations.. Therefore, this study aims to investigate how organisations assess and deal with these complex and relevant challenges.

Design/methodology/approach
A total of 18 higher management experts between the ages of 27 and 59 years participated in this four-month qualitative interview-based study. The interviews were analysed by using systematic, qualitative content analysis.

Findings
Results showed that all elements of a BM are influenced by emerged trends, and how organisations deal with them can decide whether the impact poses as risk or offers opportunities. Trends trigger two different strategies – reactive and proactive resilience strategies – which are closely related to the change sensitivity of the attributional resilience model, thereby presenting a crucial factor for enhancing resilience. Nevertheless, the proactive resilience strategy seems to be more promising for enhancing organisational resilience regarding the influence of trends on their BM. Moreover, this study found that the usage of foresight methods might be suitable as an important tool for proactive resilience strategy to modification, change or re-design of BM and consequently anticipate trends.

Originality/value
Overall, this study is one of the first that explains how BMs are influenced by trends and how organisations handle them by using organisational resilience strategies.
Enhanced sourcing strategy for centralized multitier multiple suppliers network with failure risks
Authors: Bagul Avinash , Mukherjee Indrajit 
Published: November 2020

PurposeThis paper attempts to address three key objectives. The primary aim is to enhance sourcing strategy for a centralized and coordinated multitier multiple suppliers networks with uncertain demand and supplier failure risks. The second objective is to enumerate all possible practical supplier(s) failure scenarios and quantify expected loss of demand cost. Finally, the work illustrates statistical experimentation to identify “influential” variables that can significantly impact the expected supply network and loss costs.Design/methodology/approachA seven-step solution framework is proposed to derive an optimal sourcing strategy for the specific network configuration with varied supplier failure scenarios. Five distinct models are formulated to address all possible scenarios of supplier failure events. Mixed-integer nonlinear programming technique is used to derive expected supply network cost and loss cost. The solution framework is verified using a real-life case.FindingsA cross-case analysis indicates that an increase in suppliers' failure risk (SFR) probabilities or customer demand rate increases the expected loss of demand costs for a multitier supply network. Besides, an increase in unit component prices increases the expected supply network cost.Research limitations/implicationsA two-tier automotive supply network for a single product is considered for all case studies.Practical implicationsThe enhanced strategy can facilitate practitioners enumerate different supply network failure scenarios and implement the best solution.Originality/valueThere is no evidence of earlier research to derive optimal sourcing strategy for a centralized, coordinated multitier multiple supplier's network, considering demand uncertainties and SFR.
Battle for the boot: trademarks and competitiveness in the global UGG boot industry, 1979-2019
Authors: Budde-Sung Amanda 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
Despite its Australian birthplace, the ugg boot industry is now fully dominated by one American company, and the Australian ugg boot industry has been frozen out of global trade. This study aims to consider the impact on the competitive advantage of culturally distinctive but not new, intellectual property (IP) through the historic lens of the Australia–USA battle over the UGG boot trademark.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses trademark applications, court documents, annual reports and brand reports to trace the history of the change and growth of the ugg boot industry from a small cottage industry in Australia to a billion-dollar monopoly controlled by an American company.

Findings
Court documents and trademark applications from 1979 to 2019 indicate that Australian firms underestimated the cultural differences between the USA and Australia and thus failed to adequately protect the generic word “ugg” in foreign markets where it was considered to be distinctive, rather than generic.

Practical implications
The paper highlights the importance of the first-mover advantage that can be conferred upon a firm by IP that is not new. Trademarks must be distinctive, rather than new, but properly used, they can offer substantial global competitive advantages to firms.

Originality/value
The in-depth analysis of the development of the UGG brand highlights the importance of intangible barriers in global business. The impact on the competitive advantage these intangible barriers gave US firms over Australian firms in the worldwide sheepskin boot market is discussed.
Medical students perceptions of the influence of undergraduate experiences on making a career choice in psychiatry
Authors: El-Sayeh Hany George , Cashman Elizabeth , Zenhari Rozita , Jones Sarah , Pocklington Claire , Pell Godfrey , Budd Simon 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
Psychiatric recruitment and retention are at an unprecedented low within the UK. The reasons for this shortfall may include public and professional stigma, recent NHS service developments and changes in undergraduate training. The purpose of this study is to explore medical student’s perceptions of the nature and magnitude of these factors on influencing whether or not they would choose a career in psychiatry.

Design/methodology/approach
This qualitative study was conducted with year four medical students at a single UK University with low levels of recruitment into psychiatry. Two focus groups were asked about their undergraduate experience within the speciality. Thematic analysis of the resulting transcripts enabled the identification of codes and over-arching themes, which formed the focus of this study.

Findings
Four key themes were identified during analysis and these included: the core subject matter (of psychiatry) viewed as being different; curriculum or course variables; interpersonal factors and; career factors. Placement enjoyment, positive role-modelling and enthusiasm were all important when considering psychiatry as a career. Therapeutic success, career flexibility and pay-banding were also powerful determinants.

Practical implications
These findings led to the initiation of an apprentice programme for undergraduates on psychiatric placement, designed to enhance the student experience of psychiatry and the perception of the speciality as a career.

Originality/value
While there are a number of possible solutions to current adverse national trends in psychiatric recruitment, increasing efforts to increase both the variety and quality of undergraduate placements and establishing a clearer sense of team identity is of vital importance if these patterns are to be reversed.

Published: November 2020

AbstractSince the publication of the Japanese “Guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas” in 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of hematolymphoid neoplasms and the WHO–European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer classification for primary cutaneous lymphomas were updated and a number of novel systemic drugs for cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma had been approved in Japan. In 2020, we revised the Japanese guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas with consideration of the recent advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology and classification of cutaneous lymphomas together with the update of treatment strategies reflecting the advent of novel drugs. In addition to a brief explanation of epidemiology, diagnosis, staging system, prognosis and management of each subtype of cutaneous lymphomas, the recommendations for nine clinical questions regarding treatment options that can vary even among experts are also described. A systematic review process and determination of recommendations in answer to each clinical question have been performed in accordance with the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation scheme by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of dermatologists, a hematologist and a radiation oncologist. In this article, we present the outlines of the revised Japanese “Guidelines for the management of cutaneous lymphomas”.
Spatial homogenization of understorey plant communities under eCO2 in a mature Eucalyptus woodland
Authors: Ochoa‐Hueso Raúl , Piñeiro Juan , Hasegawa Shun , Illanas Sonia , Miranda Héctor , Reverter Margarita , Power Sally A. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract

Understorey plant communities comprise a large portion of biodiversity of forests and woodlands globally, where they contribute to tree species dynamics, biogeochemical cycling and carbon sequestration.

Here we evaluated the effects of elevated CO2 (400 vs. 550 ppm) on the spatial distribution of understorey plant communities from a mature eucalypt woodland in Eastern Australia (EucFACE experiment).

Three years of elevated CO2 resulted in a loss of the characteristic aggregated and segregated spatial pattern of species richness at both short and long distances (20 cm–227 cm), respectively. Changes in spatial patterns emerged over time, indicating that these results are due to a relatively slow reordering of the understorey plant community. In contrast, when analysed from a multivariate perspective, changes in terms of community composition were not as clear as changes in the spatial rearrangement of plant communities.

Synthesis. Given that the spatial patterns of communities are likely a reflection of the way in which multiple species interact and how energy and matter flow throw ecosystems, community reordering due to global change may have far‐reaching implications in terms of ecosystem functioning. Moreover, subtle early changes in the spatial pattern of understorey plant communities may represent an early‐warning indicator of global change impacts in forest ecosystems.
The Influence of Choice Context on Consumers’ Preference for GM Orange Juice
Authors: Hu Yang , House Lisa A. , McFadden Brandon R. , Gao Zhifeng 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThe absence or presence of an alternative in a choice set may change the relative preference and predicted market share results. In this study, three groups of experiments are performed to determine if choice context influences consumer preference for orange juice from different countries of origin and using different production methods. Our results show that our participants consider that the importance of country of origin (United States over Brazil) outweighs production method (GM or non‐GM) when they are obliged to trade off between the two attributes among limited options. However, market price for US orange juice might decrease compared to a market with only non‐GM orange juice (from both countries). Our market share projections show that even with decreased willingness to pay, US GM orange juice would still account for the majority of the orange juice market (53%). With unlimited choices (US GM orange juice is added to US and Brazilian non‐GM orange juice), US GM orange juice takes more market share from US non‐GM than Brazilian orange juice. This combination of findings highlights the importance of inclusion or exclusion of alternatives in choice experiments. In both scenarios, having GM orange juice in the market increases the proportion of people who choose not to purchase any juice, possibly indicating an increased distrust due to the introduction of GM technology. Adoption of GM technology in the citrus industry (if found to be a cost effective solution for a very costly disease) would depend on the overall market effects on both supply and demand.
Formation of overwintering aggregation of Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in laboratory conditions
Authors: Song Hyunsung , Lee Doo‐Hyung 
Published: November 2020

AbstractOverwintering aggregations of Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in human‐made structures cause nuisance problems and enable this pest to invade new countries. Therefore, understanding the overwintering aggregation behaviors of H. halys would serve as a basis to mitigate these pest problems. In this study, we induced adult H. halys to exhibit overwintering behaviors in laboratory conditions and assessed how this pest responded to a potential overwintering structure and settled in the structure over 24 hours. A potential overwintering micro‐habitat was provided to H. halys in reproductive diapause by establishing a 5‐mm gap between two acrylic panels facing each other. This experimental arena was kept in a cage at 11°C, 12:12 (L:D), and 30% relative humidity (RH). A total of 50 adults (sex ratio = 1:1) was released into the cage for each replication. First, more females than males crawled into the 5‐mm gap and settled in the experimental arena: the proportion of females having settled in the arena was 68.64 ± 3.03%. Second, when H. halys were settling in the arena, they did not significantly synchronize their dorsal or ventral side directions with other individuals. Third, H. halys tended to settle in the lower section of the experimental arena. Finally, 69.1 ± 3.9% of overwintering H. halys were found to settle solitarily, not touching other individuals in the experimental arena. Further studies are warranted to validate our results in semi‐field conditions in which more H. halys are released and monitored for longer times.
