Control of the two-wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP) robot in presence of model uncertainty and motion restriction
Authors: Haitao Zhou , Feng Haibo , Xu Li , Zhang Songyuan , Fu Yili 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to improve control performance and safety of a real two-wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP) robot by dealing with model uncertainty and motion restriction simultaneously, which can be extended to other TWIP robotic systems.

Design/methodology/approach
The inequality of lumped model uncertainty boundary is derived from original TWIP dynamics. Several motion restriction conditions are derived considering zero dynamics, centripedal force, ground friction condition, posture stability, control torque limitation and so on. Sliding-mode control (SMC) and model predictive control (MPC) are separately adopted to design controllers for longitudinal and rotational motion, while taking model uncertainty into account. The reference value of the moving velocity and acceleration, delivered to the designed controller, should be restricted in a specified range, limited by motion restrictions, to keep safe.

Findings
The cancelation of model uncertainty commonly existing in real system can improve control performance. The motion commands play an important role in maintaining safety and reliability of TWIP, which can be ensured by the proposed motion restriction to avoid potential movement failure, such as slipping, lateral tipping over because of turning and large fluctuation of body.

Originality/value
An inequation of lumped model uncertainty boundary incorporating comprehensive errors and uncertainties of system is derived and elaborately calculated to determine the switching coefficients of SMC. The motion restrictions for TWIP robot moving in 3D are derived and used to impose constraints on reference trajectory to avoid possible instability or failure of movement.
Understanding drivers of brand love - the role of personalized ads on social media
Authors: Tran Trang P. , Muldrow Adrienne , Ho Khanh Ngoc Bich 
Published: November 2020

PurposeThis paper aims to test a theory-driven model reflecting the effects of perceived personalization on consumer–brand relationships on social media.Design/methodology/approachThe conceptual model is empirically tested through two studies using partial least squares-structural equation modeling. Other techniques, such as common method bias, multigroup comparison, mediation analysis and model fit comparison, are also used to give more insights into the analytical process.FindingsData from two studies show that perceived personalization is positively related to brand-related outcomes including brand self-expressiveness, consumer–brand engagement and brand connection. While consumer–brand engagement and brand connection are positively related to brand love, brand self-expressiveness is not.Research limitations/implicationsThe paper contributes to the advertising and brand management literature by shedding light on a better understanding of the impact of personalization in the digital world.Practical implicationsManagement could learn important lessons from personalization. If a strategy of promoting personalized ads is implemented successfully, those ads could change customer perceptions of brands which ultimately strengthens brand love.Originality/valueThis research provides an empirical model that helps marketers better understand the factors affecting brand love with personalized ads on social media.
Evaluation of the critical success factors for sustainable housing delivery: analytic hierarchy process approach
Authors: Oluleye Ifeoluwa Benjamin , Ogunleye Mukaila Bamidele , Oyetunji Abiodun Kolawole 
Published: November 2020

PurposeDespite the varied housing policies guiding the Nigerian housing provision, its delivery is yet to level up with the global acceptable sustainability requirements. Previous studies revealed that developing countries are yet to unravel and embrace the tenets of sustainable housing delivery. This study, therefore, adopted the analytic hierarchy process survey in evaluating the critical success factors (CSFs) that can enhance the delivery of sustainable housing and, in turn, meeting the nation’s sustainable housing needs.Design/methodology/approachData for the study was sourced from housing developers in Nigeria. A pilot survey was done to reduce the identified success factors into a manageable size. These factors were evaluated using the analytical hierarchy process to ascertain the significant factors for sustainable housing delivery in developing economies.FindingsFindings from the study revealed that government funding towards sustainable housing, access to low-interest housing loan, mandating affordable housing development, ensuring community participation during housing delivery, the involvement of housing stakeholders, ensuring the security of life and properties, use of sustainable materials, adaptable housing design and befitting land use are the significant CSFs required for enhancing sustainable housing delivery.Practical implicationsThe findings of this study seek to inform developers, practitioners and policymakers on the CSFs crucial for sustainability attainment in the built environment.Originality/valueThe CSFs are quite important and they would promote government sustainability programmes, meeting housing needs and if well implemented and adopted thereby solving environmental and socio-economic challenges of traditional housing development. This research has added to the existing literature on sustainable housing delivery by providing information on inclusive CSFs that would enhance the delivery of sustainable housing in the developing economy. Further research of this nature can also be carried out to compare and contrast with other developing economies.
Going with the flow: smart shopping malls and omnichannel retailing
Authors: Ameen Nisreen , Tarhini Ali , Shah Mahmood , Madichie Nnamdi O. 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The transition from multichannel to omnichannel retailing requires a better conceptualisation, especially for customer experience in smart shopping malls. Therefore, this study aims to propose a theoretical model that captures customers’ omnichannel experiences in smart shopping malls in terms of personal interaction, physical environment and virtual environment encounters. It examines the mediating role of flow experience on the relationship between the three types of encounters and customers’ intention to revisit smart shopping malls.

Design/methodology/approach
The study draws on four key theories: the service encounter model, trust-commitment theory, flow theory and experiential value theory. A total of 553 completed questionnaires were collected from customers (millennials) in the United Kingdom (UK). The data was analysed using partial least squares-structural equation modelling.

Findings
The findings show that physical environment encounters and personal interaction encounters play a significant role in customers’ omnichannel experiences in smart malls. Also, of significance are the following aspects of virtual environment encounters: interface design, personalisation, trust, privacy, consumer–peer interaction and relationship commitment. The findings highlight the significant mediating role of flow on the relationships between these three types of encounters and intention, and the effect of flow on omnichannel service usage in smart shopping malls.

Originality/value
The research contributes to the existing literature by proposing a conceptual model: the smart shopping mall omnichannel customer experience (SSMCE) model. The findings offer practical guidance to shopping malls and retailers who wish to enhance the customer omnichannel experience.
Investigating the influence of transparency on the adoption of e-Government in Indonesia
Authors: Sabani Alvedi 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to extend and validate the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) for investigating the effect of transparency on the adoption of e-Government in Indonesia from the perspective of citizens.

Design/methodology/approach
A comprehensive review of the related literature leads to the development of a transparency-focused conceptual model to better understanding the adoption of e-Government. Structural equation modelling is used for analysing the data collected from the citizens in Indonesia.

Findings
This study confirms that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and transparency are the critical factors for evaluating the citizen adoption of e-Government in Indonesia. In addition, transparency is found to be the strongest factor that influences the decision of Indonesian citizens to adopt e-Government.

Research limitations/implications
From the theoretical perspective, the use of the UTAUT model is extended by incorporating the transparency factor that is vital to the adoption of e-Government in developing countries such as Indonesia.

Practical implications
In terms of managerial and policy implications, this research offers the Indonesian Government suggestions on how the adoption of e-Government can be improved.

Originality/value
This is the first study that extends and empirically validates the UTAUT model with transparency for evaluating the adoption of e-Government from the perspective of citizens in Indonesia. It demonstrates how the transparency factor can be incorporated to better understand the adoption of e-Government in such a context.
The challenge: 20th Century vs. 21st Century management
Authors: Denning Stephen 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The author contrasts 20th Century hierarchical management with Agile influenced 21st Century management, which is more suited to modern realities.

Design/methodology/approach
Understanding how 20th Century and 21st Century management differ offers an evidenced-based theory why today’s leading firms are leading and why yesterday’s giants are flailing.

Findings
For 21st Century management – the pioneering mode of Agile enterprises and of leading Silicon Valley firms, as well as individual businesses in Europe and China–the goal of the firm is to create customers.

Practical implications
Because the firm’s goal is to create value for customers in a dynamic environment, sustainable strategy must incorporate creating new businesses that attract new customers.

Originality/value
The author compares and contrasts the practices, principles, processes and mindsets of 20th Century management and those of the leading 21st Century firms that have become the most valuable firms on the planet as well as the leading global brands.
Are narrative therapy groups effective for people with intellectual disabilities? A critical review of the literature
Authors: McKenzie-Smith Laura 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
Narrative therapy has been suggested as particularly relevant to people with intellectual disability (ID), with group formats potentially offering additional benefits. This paper aims to critically review studies which evaluated narrative group interventions for people with ID.

Design/methodology/approach
The seven papers identified for review were critically appraised for their quality using a quality appraisal tool appropriate to their design, along with additional factors including adaptations made to improve accessibility.

Findings
The studies suggest that there may be some small benefits of narrative group therapy for those with ID. However, alongside issues limiting the studies’ evaluations, it is noted that the research paradigms used in the studies conflict with narrative approaches.

Research limitations/implications
The limited evidence base suggests the need for further research. The randomised controlled trial would ordinarily be seen as the gold standard for such research. However, narrative interventions may require a different approach to evaluation.

Originality/value
This is the first review of published literature on the evaluation of narrative therapy groups for people with ID.
Commentary on “Keep safe: collaborative practice development and research with people with learning disabilities”
Authors: Clifton Matt , Chapman Steve 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
Inspired by the work of the Keep Safe Advisory Group, this paper aims to explain and make the case for co-production as a powerful model for working alongside people with learning disabilities.

Design/methodology/approach
The collaborative approach of the Keep Safe advisory group is the authors’ springboard for a deep dive into the power and potential of co-production as a model. As organisational leaders – one with and one without a learning disability – the authors draw on their personal experience to argue that co-production is essential to recognising the adulthood of people with learning disabilities.

Findings
Co-production means the equal sharing of power and responsibility from the start, best served by the leap of faith of a blank agenda. Co-production values different kinds of expertise as complementary – broadly considered as expertise from lived experience and professional expertise. When working co-productively, a deep investment of time to understand people pays dividends in outcomes and everyone’s personal and professional growth. Co-production enriches the lives of everyone taking part.

Originality/value
Co-production, though common currency in health and social care, remains too rarely understood and practiced. Readers will benefit from this reflective viewpoint, which aims to clarify and deepen what co-production really means. In particular, enabling people with learning disabilities to take responsibility for themselves and others is rarely considered but is presented here as foundational to human maturity and adulthood.
Experiences of children with special educational needs and disabilities and their families in the United Kingdom during the coronavirus pandemic
Authors: O’Hagan Brian , Kingdom Stephen 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to outline the experiences of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and their families during the coronavirus pandemic.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper draws on research gathered and collated by three different organisations working with families of children and young people with SEND.

Findings
There were a number of common findings across all three surveys. In particular: the rapid collapse of external support for children and families; the reduction/withdrawal of support exacerbated the stress and exhaustion already experienced by many families; it proved very difficult to establish home learning and get adequate support from schools; there was little government recognition of families’ vulnerability and need for support; and, paradoxically, a significant minority of children and families reported increased well-being.

Originality/value
Findings carry clear implications both for the provision of child and family support during any further lockdowns and, more generally, in respect of government policy and funding of family support.
Cleavage of PrePL by Lon promotes growth and pathogenesis in Magnaporthe oryzae
Authors: Dang Yuejia , Wei Yi , Wang Yanyan , Liu Shaoshuai , Julia Chekanova , Zhang Shi‐Hong 
Published: November 2020

SummaryATP‐dependent Lon proteases function in bacterial pathogenesis by regulating the expression of the Type III secretion system; however, little is known about how Lon proteases regulate fungal pathogenesis. We previously investigated Lon‐binding proteins involved in fungal pathogenesis that interact with PrePL, the smallest Magnaporthe oryzae Lon‐binding protein. Here, we show that Lon cleaves PrePL and produces Pc, an extracellular 11‐kDa isoform with catalase and peroxidase activity. The ΔPrePL loss‐of‐function strain showed stronger sporulation and accelerated disease development, suggesting a temporally specific negative regulatory mechanism controlled by PrePL in disease progression. Neither the truncated Pc, nor the full‐length PrePL missing the Lon cleavage site complemented the ΔPrePL phenotype, suggesting that full‐length PrePL and Pc both function in fungal development. PrePL targeted to the mitochondria undergoes hydrolysis by Lon to produce Pc, which accumulates in the fungal apoplast. Importantly, recombinant Pc induced plant defence responses and cell death after being infiltrated into selected plant leaves, indicating that it functions as an avirulence factor. This work thus reveals a novel pathogenic factor in the fungal Lon‐mediated pathway. Additionally, our results provide new insight into the functions of a full‐length protein and its cleaved isoform in fungal pathogenesis.

AbstractPavlovian‐to‐instrumental transfer (PIT) tasks examine the influence of Pavlovian stimuli on ongoing instrumental behaviour. Previous studies reported associations between a strong PIT effect, high‐risk drinking and alcohol use disorder. This study investigated whether susceptibility to interference between Pavlovian and instrumental control is linked to risky alcohol use in a community sample of 18‐year‐old male adults. Participants (N = 191) were instructed to ‘collect good shells’ and ‘leave bad shells’ during the presentation of appetitive (monetary reward), aversive (monetary loss) or neutral Pavlovian stimuli. We compared instrumental error rates (ER) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain responses between the congruent and incongruent conditions, as well as among high‐risk and low‐risk drinking groups. On average, individuals showed a substantial PIT effect, that is, increased ER when Pavlovian cues and instrumental stimuli were in conflict compared with congruent trials. Neural PIT correlates were found in the ventral striatum and the dorsomedial and lateral prefrontal cortices (lPFC). Importantly, high‐risk drinking was associated with a stronger behavioural PIT effect, a decreased lPFC response and an increased neural response in the ventral striatum on the trend level. Moreover, high‐risk drinkers showed weaker connectivity from the ventral striatum to the lPFC during incongruent trials. Our study links interference during PIT to drinking behaviour in healthy, young adults. High‐risk drinkers showed higher susceptibility to Pavlovian cues, especially when they conflicted with instrumental behaviour, indicating lower interference control abilities. Increased activity in the ventral striatum (bottom‐up), decreased lPFC response (top‐down), and their altered interplay may contribute to poor interference control in the high‐risk drinkers.

AbstractAimTraumatic events are involved in the development and maintenance of psychotic symptoms. There are few trials exploring trauma‐focused treatments as interventions for psychotic symptoms, especially in individuals with early psychosis. This trial will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a definitive trial of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for psychosis (EMDRp) in people with early psychosis.MethodsSixty participants with first episode psychosis and a history of a traumatic/adverse life event(s)will be recruited from early intervention services in the North West of England and randomized to receive16 sessions of EMDRp + Treatment as Usual (TAU) or TAU alone. Participants will be assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 months post‐randomization using several measures of psychotic symptoms, trauma symptoms, anxiety, depression, functioning, service‐user defined recovery, health economics indicators and quality of life. Two nested qualitative studies to assess participant feedback of therapy and views of professional stakeholders on the implementation of EMDRp into services will also be conducted. The feasibility of a future definitive efficacy and cost‐effectiveness evaluation of EMDRp will be tested against several outcomes, including ability to recruit and randomize participants, trial retention at 6‐ and 12‐month follow‐up assessments, treatment engagement and treatment fidelity.ConclusionsIf it is feasible to deliver a multi‐site trial of this intervention, it will be possible to evaluate whether EMDRp represents a beneficial treatment to augment existing evidence‐based care of individuals with early psychosis supported by early intervention services.
Drivers of outsourcing and backsourcing in the public sector—From idealism to pragmatism
Authors: Jansson Magnus , Carlström Eric , Karlsson David , Berlin Johan 
Published: November 2020

AbstractLocal governments are bringing previously outsourced services back in‐house. Research into explanations for sourcing decisions in the public sector is growing, however, few researchers have investigated drivers of both outsourcing and backsourcing in local public‐governance organizations. In this study we utilize transaction cost economic theory (TCE) and political ideology to investigate underlying motives of sourcing in local public governance organizations. Based on a 2018 survey of chief financial officers (CEO) in all of Sweden's 290 municipalities, this study shows that backsourcing is strongly associated with outsourcing and that outsourcing and backsourcing should not be understood as opposite phenomena, rather as interdependent phenomena in a dynamic sourcing strategy. Outsourcing and backsourcing are driven in part by different factors: Outsourcing by political ambitions and economic factors relating to TCE, while managerial and pragmatic concerns are foregrounded for backsourcing.
The impact of COVID‐19 in hemodialysis patients: Experience in a hospital dialysis unit

Published: November 2020

AbstractIntroductionCOVID‐19 is a very high transmission disease with a variable prognosis in the general population. Patients in hemodialysis therapy are particularly vulnerable to developing an infectious disease, but the incidence and prognosis of hemodialysis patients with COVID‐19 is still unclear. The main objective is to describe the experience of our dialysis unit in preventing and controlling the spread of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.MethodsPreventive structural and organizational changes were applied to all patients and health care personnel in order to limit the risk of local transmission of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.FindingsThe Nephrology department at Sant Joan Despí Moises Broggi Hospital‐Consorci Sanitari Integral is a reference for two satellite hemodialysis centers caring for 156 patients. We combine our own hemodialysis maintenance program for 87 patients with hospitalized patients from peripheral hemodialysis centers. In this area, the reported incident rate of COVID‐19 in these peripherical hemodialysis centers was 9.5% to 19.9% and the death rate 25% to 30.5%. In our hemodialysis program, the incidence rate was 5.7%. Three out of five required hospitalization (60%) and nobody died.DiscussionAlthough the risk of local transmission of the disease was very high due to the increase in hemodialysis patients from peripheral centers admitted to hospital, the incidence rate of COVID‐19 was very low in our own hemodialysis patients. We believe that the structural and organizational changes adopted early on and the diagnosis algorithm played an important role in minimizing the spread of the disease.
