Published: March 2021

PurposeThis article introduces readers to the Special Issue (SI, 34-1) of ARLA, edited (not exclusively) with the best papers of the Academy of Management's Specialized Conference, scheduled for April 2020 in Mexico City. The COVID-19 pandemic forced its cancellation, but the expert peer review and editorial work continued, to contribute to the emerging literature on Latin American Management and Sustainability.Design/methodology/approachGuest editors contributed their expertise based on required editorial processes and focused literature reviews on Management and Sustainability.FindingsThere are large management and sustainability challenges to Latin American practitioners and researchers, resulting in an increasingly urgent need to systematically document similarities and differences in the fields of Management and Sustainability. It is so because the region has been affected as few others before, during and after the pandemic. Thus, this issue summarizes the literature, presents eight new studies and offers suggestions for future research.Research limitations/implicationsManagement and sustainability in Latin America are wide subjects, with different dimensions and issues. This is a specific contribution that leaves much ground to be covered in the different subfields of the area, in research methodologies and conclusions.Originality/valueAn agenda for advancing the field of management and sustainability in Latin America, highlighted by the COVID-19 disruption; additionally, eight of the most advanced research in the field are presented, chosen from two tracks of a large number of contributions to a recent specialized conference organized by the Academy of Management.
“Stop whining and be a badass”: a postfeminist analysis of university students' responses to gender themes
Authors: Kivijärvi Marke 
Published: March 2021

PurposeThis paper critically examines how female students at a Finnish business school understand gender in management.Design/methodology/approachThe analysis is based on female students' learning diaries from a basic management course.FindingsThe findings show how students respond to the topic of gender inequality through a neoliberal postfeminist discourse. The students' discourse is structured around three discursive moves: (1) rejecting “excessive” feminism, (2) articulating self-reliant professional futures and (3) producing idealized role models through successfully integrating masculinity and femininity.Originality/valueThis article contributes to current understanding of the role of postfeminist sensibilities in shaping student participation in the management profession. Awareness of students' responses to gender-equality initiatives offers management educators insight into the inclusion of equality topics in teaching in ways that support equal gender socialization in the management profession.
Understanding how firm attributes affect voice in brand community
Authors: Sun Yongqiang , Zhao Cailian , Shen Xiao-Liang 
Published: March 2021

PurposeCustomers' continuous value creation (e.g. voice) is an important research issue for the success of brand virtual community (BVC) and new product development, while it is rarely studied from a firm perspective. The purpose of the present study is to investigate how firm attributes exert influences on continuous voice intention in brand virtual communities.Design/methodology/approachThe data were collected through a survey in mobile brand virtual communities in China, and 291 valid responses for data analysis were included to test the research model by using partial least squares (PLSs).FindingsThe results show that intrinsic motivation to voice is positively associated with continuous voice intention. Furthermore, the impact of brand identification on intrinsic motivation is found to be fully mediated by community identification. Customer orientation has a positive effect on perceived openness, and both customer orientation and perceived openness positively affect customers' brand identification and community identification.Originality/valueAlthough prior studies have examined some variables relevant to voice behavior, few studies have recognized the influence of firm attributes toward the BVC on sustained voice intention. To fill this research gap, the authors propose a research model to shed light on the role of firm attributes by classifying them into brand- vs community-based firm attributes, which affect intrinsic motivation through two types of social identification, namely brand identification and community identification.
The interplay among self-regulation, emotions and teaching styles in higher education: a path analysis approach
Authors: Heydarnejad Tahereh , Hosseini Fatemi Azar , Ghonsooly Behzad 
Published: March 2021

PurposeFor this purpose, Teacher Self-Regulation Scale (TSRS), Emotions Questionnaire for Teachers (EQT) and Grasha's Teaching Style Inventory (TSI) were employed to gauge the influences of teacher self-regulation on university teachers' emotions and preferred teaching style. The participants of this study were 320 university teachers, majored in different branches of English (English Literature, English Teaching, English Translation), teaching in different universities of Iran. To shed light on the causal associations, a path analysis was run using LISREL 8.80.Design/methodology/approachFollowing the pivotal role of effective teaching on educational well-being, the present study delve into three significant teacher-related variables i.e. teacher self-regulation, emotions and teaching style. For this purpose, TSRS, EQT, and Grasha's TSI were employed to gauge the influences of teacher self-regulation on university teachers' emotions and preferred teaching style. The participants of this study were 320 university teachers, majored in different branches of English (English Literature, English Teaching, English Translation), teaching in different universities of Iran. To shed light on the causal associations, a path analysis was run using LISREL 8.80.FindingsBased on the findings, teacher self-regulation predicts pleasant emotions positively; whereas, it predicts unpleasant emotions in a negative direction. The results also demonstrate that teacher self-regulation positively and significantly predicts student-centred styles (Facilitator and Delegator), and the reverse is true for teacher-centred styles (Formal Authority, Personal Model, and Expert).Research limitations/implicationsFuture studies may advance the possible relationships among the subscales of teacher self-regulation, teacher emotion and teaching style. Also, further investigations are suggested to target the teacher self-regulation, teacher emotion and teaching style in enhancing language learners' achievement.Practical implicationsIn effect, the findings of the current study contribute to the fields of teacher psychology and teacher education. The implications of this study may open another perspective into university teachers’ psychological well-being and professional development.Social implicationsThe implications of this study may redound to the advantage of policy makers, curriculum designers, teacher educators, as well as university teachers.Originality/valueThe implications of this study may redound to the advantage of policy-makers, curriculum designers, teacher educators and university teachers.

Published: March 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to develop and empirically test the student engagement scale and to understand the factors that contribute to student engagement at higher educational institutions.Design/methodology/approachThe investigation started with a rummage for variables, available in the literature, 59 in numbers, which were then used to collect data from a sample of university students in Lahore, Pakistan. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was applied to develop an initial structure of the construct. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was then conducted to confirm the reliability and validity of these factors for the student engagement construct.FindingsIt has been found that factors, predominantly social and exogenous to the classroom environment, such as campus atmosphere and facilities, are more responsible for creating engagement among students at higher educational institutions of Pakistan.Originality/valueThis is one of the pioneer studies for developing a student engagement scale for measuring the students' engagement in higher educational institutions. The authors believe that the scale developed in this study contributes substantially to the student engagement literature. Limitations, future research directions and implications are discussed.
Organizational culture and cultural diversity: an explorative study of international skilled migrants in Swedish firms
Authors: Farashah Ali , Blomqusit Tomas 
Published: March 2021

PurposeThis paper empirically explores the types and extent of cultural diversity strategies in Sweden, a developed economy with many migrant workers. The role of organizational culture as the context and the association with diversity strategy and the selection of international skilled migrant workers are examined.Design/methodology/approachEmpirical data are collected by surveying 249 Swedish large or medium-sized firms. Cluster analysis is used to explore the configuration of organizational culture, cultural diversity strategy (CDS) and selection and development criteria.FindingsThe authors identify five clusters of organizations. Organizational culture is the main contextual factor that influences the CDS and human resource (HR) approaches for selecting skilled migrant workers. The profile of the clusters including organizational culture, diversity strategies, the selection criteria and firm demographics is presented. The empirical results indicate that organizational culture and demographics are associated with the choice of diversity strategy and, consequently, HR processes.Originality/valueThis study's main focus is on international skilled migrants, which is among empirically less-studied areas in global mobility literature. Furthermore, until now more attention has been directed toward studying the consequences of diversity than toward understanding the factors that influence choice of diversity strategies and practices. This study focuses on antecedents of diversity and attempts to understand the factors that influence adoption and implementation of different cultural diversity strategies.
Chronic health conditions, healthcare experience and life satisfaction among immigrant and native-born women in Canada
Authors: Li Yiyan , Ru Siyu 
Published: March 2021

PurposeTo compare chronic health status, utilization of healthcare services and life satisfaction among immigrant women and their Canadian counterparts.Design/methodology/approachA secondary analysis of national data from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), 2015–2016 was conducted. The survey data included 109,659 cases. Given the research question, only female cases were selected, which resulted in a final sample of 52,560 cases. Data analysis was conducted using multiple methods, including logistic regression and linear regression.FindingsRecent and established immigrant women were healthier than native-born Canadian women. While the Healthy Immigrant Effect (HIE) was evident among immigrant women, some characteristics related to ethnic origin and/or unhealthy dietary habits may deteriorate immigrant women's health in the long term. Immigrant women and non-immigrant women with chronic illnesses were both more likely to increase their use of the healthcare system. Notably, the present study did not find evidence that immigrant women under-utilized Canada's healthcare system. However, the findings showed that chronic health issues were more likely to decrease women's life satisfaction.Originality/valueThis analysis contributes to the understanding of immigrant women's acculturation by comparing types of chronic illnesses, healthcare visits, and life satisfaction between immigrant women and their Canadian counterparts.
Long‐term remission of unusual plasmoacanthoma on the nasal canthus achieved by intralesional corticosteroid injection: Insights into the pathogenesis and treatment planning based on a literature review
Authors: Ito‐Muramatsu Aria , Fukuyama Masahiro , Hayakawa Jun , Ohyama Manabu 
Published: March 2021

AbstractPlasmoacanthoma (PA) is a verrucous tumor predominantly developing on periorificial areas, which has been considered as an unusual subtype of plasmacytosis circumorificialis. Because of its rarity and clinical resemblance to several verrucous dermatological disorders, accurate diagnosis of PA is quite challenging. Herein, we present an extremely unusual case of PA which arose on both sides of the nasal canthus and was successfully treated with intralesional corticosteroid injections. To elucidate clinicopathological features of this condition, a literature review was also attempted. A 78‐year‐old woman visited us with a 2‐year history of eruptions affecting both sides of the nasal canthus. At a local clinic, the diagnosis and treatment had been unsuccessful due to non‐specific histological findings, leading to the referral to our institute. On physical examination, verrucous and lobulated reddish plaques were observed. In histology, psoriasiform epidermal change and dense plasma cell infiltration in the dermis were detected. The diagnosis of PA was made. After 5‐monthly intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injections, the lesions became hardly noticeable with no evidence of recurrence. A literature review found five PA cases. PA predominantly arose on the periorificial area, mostly in or around the mouth, except one case which developed on the extra‐oral or perioral area. Intralesional corticosteroid injection has been preferably performed, which frequently achieved successful remission. Chronic inflammation has been reported as a preceding condition. Abundance of plasma cells in the lacrimal glands and conjunctiva, together with pre‐existing allergic conjunctivitis and habitual scratching, might have contributed to PA development in our case. Histopathological detection of psoriasiform epidermal change and dense dermal plasma cell infiltration is indispensable for the diagnosis of PA. For accurate diagnosis, optimization of treatment, and further accumulation of extra‐oral/perioral PA cases, a skin biopsy needs to be proactively performed on verrucous lesions on relatively unfamiliar orifice sites.
DNA metabarcoding of prey reveals spatial, temporal and diet partitioning of an island ecosystem by four invasive wasps

Abstract

Invasive alien species can cause detrimental changes in native ecosystems, but our understanding of the interactions between multiple exotic species is limited. To evaluate the joint effect of multiple sympatric invaders on an ecosystem, we must first understand how they interact with each other.

Here, we quantified the spatial distribution, dietary composition and overlap of four invasive generalist vespid species (two Vespula and two Polistes) that co‐occur on Ahuahu off the north‐east coast of New Zealand. We used DNA metabarcoding of larval faecal material to identify prey species, and mapped the locations of nests.

We observed clear spatial partitioning, with different wasp species aggregating in different habitats. Diet differed both among wasp species (diet partitioning) and among seasons (temporal partitioning). There was stronger competition (highest diet overlap) between Vespula germanica and Vespula vulgaris than between other wasp species, but partitioning resources minimised spatial and diet overlap between the four species.

Additionally, we obtained high‐resolution diet inventories that help assess the combined ecological impact of invasion by multiple wasps. These species consumed mostly native and endemic invertebrates from multiple trophic levels, but particularly herbivores (Lepidoptera). We provide direct evidence that in combination they exploited a wide range of endemic invertebrates.

Synthesis and applications. Our study demonstrates resource partitioning among four invasive wasps, facilitating coexistence of these generalist invaders. We conclude that coexistence probably amplifies their ecological impact. Quantifying how multiple invaders exploit and partition resources provides insights into how communities assemble and helps to assess the cumulative effects of multiple invaders on the recipient community.

Published: March 2021

PurposeTo provide guidance to nurses caring for families with COVID‐19, we developed linkages using interoperable standardized nursing terminologies: NANDA International (NANDA‐I) nursing diagnoses, Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC), and Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC). In addition, we wanted to identify gaps in the terminologies and potential new nursing diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions for future development related to nurse roles in family care during a pandemic.MethodsUsing a consensus process, seven nurse experts created the linkages focused on families during the COVID‐19 pandemic using the following steps: (1) creating an initial list of potential nursing diagnoses, (2) selecting and categorizing outcomes that aligned with all components of each nursing diagnosis selected, and (3) identifying relevant nursing interventions.FindingsWe identified a total of seven NANDA‐I nursing diagnoses as the basis for the linkage work. These are distributed in three NANDA‐I Domains and based in the psychosocial dimension of the Nursing Care in Response to Pandemics model. Eighty‐nine different NOC outcomes were identified to guide care based on the nursing diagnoses, and 54 different NIC interventions were suggested as possible interventions. Fifteen new proposed concepts were identified for future development across the three classifications.ConclusionsThe linkages of nursing diagnoses, outcomes, and interventions provide a guide to enhance nursing practice and care documentation that could quantify the impact of nursing care to patient outcomes for families at risk for or infected by COVID‐19.Implications for Nursing PracticeNANDA‐I, NOC, and NIC linkages identified in this paper provide resources to support clinical decisions and guide critical thinking for nurses encountering care needs of families with COVID‐19. Documentation of these linkages provides data that can create new knowledge to enhance the care of families impacted by COVID‐19.
Innovation, external technological environment and the total factor productivity of enterprises
Authors: Xiao Zumian , Peng Hongfeng , Pan Zheyao 
Published: March 2021

AbstractIn this paper, we study the impact of endogenous innovation and the external technological environment on total factor productivity. We first develop an endogenous growth model and derive a testable empirical model. We then estimate the empirical model based on the World Bank’s worldwide enterprise survey data for 119 countries spanning 2007–2017. Our results suggest that: (i) enterprises’ R&D activity increases their total factor productivity; (ii) a higher level of external technology weakens the impact of the R&D activity on total factor productivity; and (iii) enterprises located in low‐ and middle‐income countries often lack continuous innovation.

Published: March 2021

AbstractThis study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of supplementary methods to remove the remaining root filling material from root canals. Twenty mandibular single‐rooted teeth were instrumented with Reciproc 25/0.08 and filled with gutta‐percha and AH‐Plus sealer, followed by a micro‐CT scanning. The retreatment procedures were performed, the samples were rescanned and divided into two groups (n = 10) according to the supplementary method: XP‐endo Finisher R and Clearsonic tip. The samples were rescanned and the volume of remaining root filling material was quantified. Data were analysed statistically (P < 0.05). The amount of filling material removed after supplementary methods was higher compared with retreatment procedure (P < 0.05). XP‐endo Finisher R promoted a greater percentage of filling materials reduction in the entire root canal and apical third compared with Clearsonic tip (P < 0.05). Supplementary methods were effective in the reduction of root filling materials. XP‐endo Finisher R removed more root filling material than Clearsonic tip.
Capital Meets Democracy: The Impact of Franchise Extension on Sovereign Bond Markets
Authors: DASGUPTA ADITYA , ZIBLATT DANIEL 
Published: March 2021

AbstractBy giving political rights to poor voters, do democratic political institutions pose a risk to concentrated wealth held in the form of financial capital? This article draws lessons from the reaction of sovereign bond markets to franchise extensions between 1800 and 1920. If franchise extension transferred political power from economic and financial elites to workers, as redistributive theories of democratization suggest, then this should have resulted in a fall in the market price (increase in the yield) of a country's bonds. Exploiting the asynchronous timing of franchise reforms across countries, we provide evidence that franchise extension contributed to large increases in the premium demanded by investors to hold sovereign debt, reflecting investor fears of default. However, bond markets became less sensitive to franchise extensions over time, a pattern potentially due to the structure of inequality and the strategic adoption of institutions which protected financial interests.
