Authors: Carrell William S. , Ellinger Andrea D. , Nimon Kim F. , Kim Sewon 
Published: September 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to apply social exchange and organizational support theories to examine the relationship between mid-level strategic enrollment managers’ perceptions of managerial coaching behaviors enacted by their senior managers and their own reported job engagement, as mediated by perceived organizational support (POS) within the US higher education context.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative survey-based half-longitudinal design, which used the latent marker variable technique, was conducted with a sponsoring professional organization in the strategic enrollment management (SEM) field in the USA. A total of 301 usable surveys were analyzed using structural equation modeling.FindingsThe results of this study indicate that SEM managers’ job engagement and the perceived managerial coaching behaviors provided to them by their senior managers were positively correlated, and that POS fully mediated this relationship. These findings highlight how coaching behaviors may allow managers to elicit positive emotional responses and, by fostering enhanced POS, ultimately enhance job engagement among their team members.Originality/valueThis study addresses several calls for research on managerial coaching, job engagement and POS in an under-examined higher education context within the human resource development field.

Institutional logics and risk management practices in government entities: evidence from Saudi Arabia
Authors: Murr Peter , Carrera Nieves 
Published: September 2021

Purpose
This study aims to understand how institutional logics influence the adoption and implementation of risk management (RM) practices by government entities in a non-western, developing country.

Design/methodology/approach
This study draws on the institutional logics perspective (ILP) to analyze a case study of a government entity in Saudi Arabia. Data were obtained from semi-structured interviews, observations and documentary evidence.

Findings
Findings suggest that the adoption and implementation of RM projects by Saudi governmental agencies was rooted in a traditional logic, even though the catalyst of the government for adopting a RM culture across government agencies was framed within a reform program inspired by a modernization logic. In the entity under investigation, the RM project led to an unstable situation where actors were confronted with these two competing logics. Although the project used manifestations of a modernization logic, the actions of individuals within the organization were embedded in a traditional logic.

Research limitations/implications
The study is based on a single case study in a specific country, limiting the generalizability of the findings.

Originality/value
This study provides novel evidence of the adoption and implementation of RM in governmental entities in a developing, non-western, country using ILP. Doing so enhances our knowledge about how managers struggle with competing institutional logics in an underexplored setting and enriches current accounts of key drivers and barriers of RM. It also addresses calls for a deeper understanding of the logics and managerial practices interplay in the public sector.
The effect of rural superintendent credibility on principal and district outcomes mediated by motivating language
Authors: Holmes William T. , Parker Michele , Olsen Jentre J. , Khojasteh Jam 
Published: September 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to determine the influence of rural superintendent’s talk on the perceived outcomes of principal communication competence and organizational communication satisfaction. More specifically, this study explored whether the source credibility dimensions of goodwill, competency and trustworthiness had a greater impact on the perceived outcomes when mediated by motivating language (ML) than not.Design/methodology/approachDirect and indirect paths between superintendent and principal communication were modeled, analyzed and evaluated using descriptive and inferential methods, including R version 3.6.1 with the lavaan package and the Sobel mediation test.FindingsResearch findings indicated the importance of superintendent talk and motivating language theory (MLT) that, when combined, constitute the medium of superintendent practice and enable a superintendent to execute their roles and duties. Additionally, the authors found the dimensions of goodwill and competency had the most significant impact on the two outcomes mediated by ML. This finding indicates that principals are calling for a more empathetic and interactive form of credibility than the long-established form of credibility based on expertise and stewardship. Finally, as the authors call for an expanded role from the community in research, scholarship and implementation of MLT, they suggest due to the lack of significance in trustworthiness mediated by ML, future research into trustworthiness and trust.Originality/valueThis study’s value is to increase understanding of educational administration scholars of MLT and its power to influence employee and organizational outcomes and highlight a reframing of superintendent credibility away from say and do agreement and expertise and stewardship.
Do authors play fair or manipulate Google Scholar h-index?
Authors: Loan Fayaz Ahmad , Nasreen Nahida , Bashir Bisma 
Published: September 2021

PurposeThe study's main purpose is to scrutinize Google Scholar profiles and find the answer to the question, “Do authors play fair or manipulate Google Scholar Bibliometric Indicators like h-index and i10-index?”Design/methodology/approachThe authors scrutinized the Google Scholar profiles of the top 50 library and science researchers claiming authorship of 21,022 publications. The bibliographic information of all the 21,022 publications like authorship and subject details were verified to identify accuracy, discrepancies and manipulation in their authorship claims. The actual and fabricated entries of all the authors along with their citations were recorded in the Microsoft Office Excel 2007 for further analyses and interpretation using simple arithmetic calculations.FindingsThe results show that the h-index of authors obtained from the Google Scholar should not be approved at its face value as the variations exist in the publication count and citations, which ultimately affect their h-index and i10 index. The results reveal that the majority of the authors have variations in publication count (58%), citations (58%), h-index (42%) and i10-index (54%). The magnitude of variation in the number of publications, citations, h-index and i10-index is very high, especially for the top-ranked authors.Research limitations/implicationsThe scope of the study is strictly restricted to the faculty members of library and information science and cannot be generalized across disciplines. Further, the scope of the study is limited to Google Scholar and caution needs to be taken to extend results to other databases like Web of Science and Scopus.Practical implicationsThe study has practical implications for authors, publishers, and academic institutions. Authors must stop the unethical research practices; publishers must adopt techniques to overcome the problem and academic institutions need to take precautions before hiring, recruiting, promoting and allocating resources to the candidates on the face value of the Google Scholar h-index. Besides, Google needs to work on the weak areas of Google Scholar to improve its efficacy.Originality/valueThe study brings to light the new ways of manipulating bibliometric indicators like h-index, and i10-index provided by Google Scholar using false authorship claims.

PurposeThis paper proposes an integrated knowledge visualization and digital twin system for supporting strategic management decisions. The concepts and applications of strategic architecture have been illustrated with a concrete real-world case study and decision rules of using the strategic digital twin management decision system (SDMDS) as a more visualized, adaptive and effective model for decision-making.Design/methodology/approachThis paper integrates the concepts of mental and computer models and examines a real case's business operations by applying system dynamics modelling and digital technologies. The enterprise digital twin system with displaying real-world data and simulations for future scenarios demonstrates an improved process of strategic decision-making in the digital age.FindingsThe findings reveal that data analytics and the visualized enterprise digital twin system offer better practices for strategic management decisions in the dynamic and constantly changing business world by providing a constant and frequent adjustment on every decision that affects how the business performs over both operational and strategic timescales.Originality/valueIn the digital age and dynamic business environment, the proposed strategic architecture and managerial digital twin system converts the existing conceptual models into an advanced operational model. It can facilitate the development of knowledge visualization and become a more adaptive and effective model for supporting real-time management decision-making by dealing with the complicated dependence of constant flow of data input, output and the feedback loop across business units and boundaries.
The influence of overseas study and work experience on corporate environmental disclosures: evidence from Vietnam
Authors: Le Hang Ngoc My , O’Connell Brendan Thomas , Safari Maryam 
Published: September 2021

PurposeDrawing from Upper-Echelons Theory (UET), this paper aims to examine whether an increasing number of board members studying and working overseas, especially in Anglo countries, provides some impetus for increased corporate environmental disclosures (CED) in Vietnam.Design/methodology/approachThis study used quantitative data collection and analysis. The data collection involved a content analysis of annual, sustainability and integrated reports to capture the quality and quantity of CED. The authors subsequently developed ordered probit models to quantitatively test the hypotheses.FindingsThe authors find that board members studying in Anglo countries positively impact firms’ levels of CED in emerging economies. However, overseas work experience is found to be an insignificant explanatory variable. Further, the findings suggest that, in Vietnam, Chairs appear to be more influential than chief executive officers in affecting CED levels.Practical implicationsDespite the positive influence of overseas study, the authors find overall levels of CED in Vietnam remain relatively low. This suggests the necessity of dialogue about potential reform in CED policies, which could involve the introduction of mandatory reporting requirements. In addition, to enhance sustainability disclosures, shareholders should appoint board members who possess international qualifications.Originality/valueThis study adds to the literature exploring the impacts of Anglo cultural traits of board members on CED levels, within an economy transitioning from a communist ideology to a market-oriented system context. The connection between international study and cultural norms, beliefs and traditions in these countries and their positive influence on directors’ values and attitudes towards CED have not yet been studied. The study also extends UET by examining the potential positive influence of different national contexts on board members’ education levels.
Optimization of built-part distortion in laser powder bed fusion processing of Inconel 718
Authors: Chang You-Cheng , Tran Hong-Chuong , Lo Yu-Lung 
Published: September 2021

Purpose
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) provides the means to produce unique components with almost no restriction on geometry in an extremely short time. However, the high-temperature gradient and high cooling rate produced during the fabrication process result in residual stress, which may prompt part warpage, cracks or even baseplate separation. Accordingly, an appropriate selection of the LPBF processing parameters is essential to ensure the quality of the built part. This study, thus, aims to develop an integrated simulation framework consisting of a single-track heat transfer model and a modified inherent shrinkage method model for predicting the curvature of an Inconel 718 cantilever beam produced using the LPBF process.

Design/methodology/approach
The simulation results for the curvature of the cantilever beam are calibrated via a comparison with the experimental observations. It is shown that the calibration factor required to drive the simulation results toward the experimental measurements has the same value for all settings of the laser power and scanning speed. Representative combinations of the laser power and scanning speed are, thus, chosen using the circle packing design method and supplied as inputs to the validated simulation framework to predict the corresponding cantilever beam curvature and density. The simulation results are then used to train artificial neural network models to predict the curvature and solid cooling rate of the cantilever beam for any combination of the laser power and scanning speed within the input design space. The resulting processing maps are screened in accordance with three quality criteria, namely, the part density, the radius of curvature and the solid cooling rate, to determine the optimal processing parameters for the LPBF process.

Findings
It is shown that the parameters lying within the optimal region of the processing map reduce the curvature of the cantilever beam by 17.9% and improve the density by as much as 99.97%.

Originality/value
The present study proposes a computational framework, which could find the parameters that not only yield the lowest distortion but also produce fully dense components in the LPBF process.
Discrete cosine transform for parameter space reduction in Bayesian electrical resistivity tomography
Authors: Vinciguerra A. , Aleardi M. , Hojat A. , Loke M. H. , Stucchi E. 
Published: September 2021

ABSTRACTElectrical resistivity tomography is a non‐linear and ill‐posed geophysical inverse problem that is usually solved through gradient‐descent methods. This strategy is computationally fast and easy to implement but impedes accurate uncertainty appraisals. We present a probabilistic approach to two‐dimensional electrical resistivity tomography in which a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm is used to numerically evaluate the posterior probability density function that fully quantifies the uncertainty affecting the recovered solution. The main drawback of Markov chain Monte Carlo approaches is related to the considerable number of sampled models needed to achieve accurate posterior assessments in high‐dimensional parameter spaces. Therefore, to reduce the computational burden of the inversion process, we employ the differential evolution Markov chain, a hybrid method between non‐linear optimization and Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling, which exploits multiple and interactive chains to speed up the probabilistic sampling. Moreover, the discrete cosine transform reparameterization is employed to reduce the dimensionality of the parameter space removing the high‐frequency components of the resistivity model which are not sensitive to data. In this framework, the unknown parameters become the series of coefficients associated with the retained discrete cosine transform basis functions. First, synthetic data inversions are used to validate the proposed method and to demonstrate the benefits provided by the discrete cosine transform compression. To this end, we compare the outcomes of the implemented approach with those provided by a differential evolution Markov chain algorithm running in the full, un‐reduced model space. Then, we apply the method to invert field data acquired along a river embankment. The results yielded by the implemented approach are also benchmarked against a standard local inversion algorithm. The proposed Bayesian inversion provides posterior mean models in agreement with the predictions achieved by the gradient‐based inversion, but it also provides model uncertainties, which can be used for penetration depth and resolution limit identification.
Land use intensification coupled with free‐roaming dogs as potential defaunation drivers of mesocarnivores in agricultural landscapes
Authors: Gálvez Nicolás , Infante José , Fernandez Adrián , Díaz Jesús , Petracca Lisanne 
Published: September 2021

Abstract

Land use intensification, by which habitat loss, habitat fragmentation and increased land ownership subdivision occurs, represents one of the largest threats to biodiversity. The extent to which land use intensification affects the presence of native mesocarnivores is largely unexplored, with great implications for all working landscapes where agriculture and native wildlife co‐occur.

We obtained mesocarnivore detection/non‐detection data from 180 4‐km2 sampling units in agricultural landscapes of southern Chile from January to April 2019. We used these data to (a) investigate the associations of private land ownership subdivision, forest fragmentation and forest loss with the occurrence of mesocarnivores using single‐species occupancy models, (b) assess patterns of mesocarnivore co‐occurrence with free‐roaming domestic mesocarnivores (e.g. cats and dogs) using two‐species occupancy models and (c) determine whether co‐occurrence of native and domestic mesocarnivores led to alterations in species’ temporal activity.

Land ownership subdivision, rather than habitat loss or fragmentation, had the greatest impact on native mesocarnivore occurrence, with some influence of domestic dogs. Mesocarnivore community occurrence varied from a native to domestic species composition as private land ownership subdivision increased. Native mesocarnivores altered their behaviour temporally when co‐occurring with domestics. Lastly, the presence of domestic dogs was associated with an absence of native mesocarnivores, which merits further investigation into the contribution of domestic dogs to a defaunation process in agricultural areas.

Policy implications. Our evidence supports focusing efforts in three key dimensions to advance biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes. First, private land subdivision represents a robust proxy for measuring anthropogenic impacts on mesocarnivores, and we advocate its use to inform agricultural policy to mitigate a potential defaunation process. Second, there is a need to further engage with landowners and evaluate values, motivation, willingness and action to protect remnant native vegetation and slow land use change. And, lastly, improvements to legislation and conservation marketing strategies on responsible pet ownership are critical to ameliorating the negative impacts of dogs on native wildlife species.
Relative importance of host‐dependent versus physical environmental characteristics affecting the distribution of an ectoparasitic copepod infecting the mouth cavity of stream salmonid
Authors: Hasegawa Ryota , Koizumi Itsuro 
Published: September 2021

AbstractUnderstanding parasite distributional patterns is fundamental for elucidating host–parasite relationships. The genusSalmincolais an ectoparasitic copepod group specifically infecting freshwater salmonids. Considering their strong association with their hosts, we can predict that the distribution and prevalence (analogs to abundance) ofSalmincolareflect host salmonids. An alternative hypothesis is that their distribution will be strongly affected by environmental factors like stream drift because they have a free‐living stage with low swimming ability. If this is the case, we predict a longitudinal gradient with higher occurrence or infection levels in downstream areas. To estimate the relative strength among factors affecting infection levels, we investigated the distribution pattern ofSalmincolasp. on wild white‐spotted charrSalvelinus leucomaenisin a southern Hokkaido river system. Based on data from 19 sites across three seasons, we found that host density and flow velocity affected the prevalence ofSalmincola. On the other hand, no longitudinal gradient was observed and the prevalence was extremely low in some fragmented habitats (i.e., above dams and waterfalls). This indicates some compensation mechanisms against unidirectional downstream dispersal. We found that parasite prevalence and intensity were much higher in large migratory (anadromous) fish and, therefore, hypothesize that long‐distance upstream migration helps the redistribution and population persistence of parasites in upstream areas.
The Effect of Weekend Work on Shared Leisure Time
Authors: Crawley Thomas 
Published: September 2021

AbstractUsing panel data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, I estimate the effect of weekend work on five measures of shared leisure time. Binary and ordered probit estimates indicate that weekend work has a negative association with all five measures. Fixed effects estimates suggest that weekend work has a negative effect on work–family balance and the probability of club membership, but no significant effect on the frequency of social time, attendance at community events or attendance at religious services.
