Infant sensory patterns: associations with previous perinatal loss, maternal-foetal attachment and postnatal maternal sensory patterns
Authors: Branjerdporn Grace , Meredith Pamela , Wilson Trish , Strong Jenny 
Published: June 2021

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate infant sensory patterns and their associations with previous perinatal loss, maternal-foetal attachment and postnatal maternal sensory patterns.Design/methodology/approachIn a prospective cohort study, women with and without perinatal loss (N= 57) were recruited from an Australian public hospital. Participants were surveyed during pregnancy (maternal-foetal attachment, loss) and again postnatally (maternal/infant sensory patterns). Chi-square tests and logistic regression analyses controlling for previous perinatal loss were conducted with infant sensory patterns as outcome variables.Findings“More than typical” infant low registration was associated with poorer quality of maternal-foetal attachment. “More than typical” infant sensory seeking was associated with previous perinatal loss and higher levels of maternal sensory seeking. “More than typical” infant sensory sensitivity was linked with previous perinatal loss, poorer quality of maternal-foetal attachment and higher maternal low registration. “More than typical” infant sensory avoidance was associated with poorer quality of maternal-foetal attachment and higher levels of maternal sensory sensitivity.Practical implicationsTo support more typical infant sensory patterns, results point to the potential benefit of occupational therapists supporting pregnant women with previous perinatal loss; facilitating favourable maternal-foetal attachment; and educating new mothers on how their sensory patterns impact on interactions with their infant. Sensory modulation strategies that consider the sensory patterns of both mother and infant may be beneficial to promote engagement in co-occupations.Originality/valueThese findings are the first to suggest that previous perinatal loss, poorer quality of maternal-foetal attachment and higher levels of maternal postnatal sensory patterns represent risk factors for infant sensory patterns that are “more than typical.”

Learning to work from home: experience of Australian workers and organizational representatives during the first Covid-19 lockdowns
Authors: Marzban Samin , Durakovic Iva , Candido Christhina , Mackey Martin 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to provide a snapshot of workers’ experience while working from home (WFH) during the Australian lockdown in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. It focuses on lessons to inform organizations, employees and the design of the workspaces post-2020, human, organizational and environmental considerations may affect satisfaction, productivity and health.

Design/methodology/approach
Two separate surveys were designed for this study to target Australian organizations and knowledge workers. Participants included 28 organizations and 301 employees, and descriptive and correlational analyses were conducted.

Findings
Organizations stated productivity losses, maintaining culture and workplace health and safety concerns with WFH setup while employees were more concerned about their social interactions, internet connectivity and increased workload. Employees also found the social aspects of WFH challenging and disclosed that face-to-face interactions with their colleagues was the most important reason they wanted to return to the office. High level of trust and value was reported amongst the organizations and workers.

Originality/value
In the scarcity of academic literature around negative and positives of the WFH experiment during the COVID-19 pandemic, the main sources of information have been industry-focused reports. This study aims to contribute to this knowledge gap by identifying positives and negative aspects of WFH during the first wave of lockdowns in Australia in 2020 from the organization and workers’ perspective, including human, organizational and environmental considerations.
Entrepreneurial marketing and bank performance in Egypt: is environmental turbulence a missing link?
Authors: Hilal Omnia Abdelazeem , Tantawy Ahmed Adel 
Published: June 2021

PurposeCurrent research argues that there is a positive relationship between entrepreneurial marketing (EM) and business performance. However, this relationship has only been discussed in a relatively stable environmental situation and it is not clear whether such a relationship remains positive during environmental turbulence (ET) and whether organizations adopting EM activities during such turbulence, will change their behavior to enhance their performance. Thus, this study aims to examine the relationship between EM and the performance of Egyptian banks. Furthermore, building upon environmental contingency theory, this study examined the moderating role of ET on the relationship between EM and the performance of banks in Egypt.Design/methodology/approachData were collected during the period March–June 2020 using a sample of 358 employees working in 20 banks in Egypt. Online surveys and self-administered questionnaires were used to collect the required data during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hypotheses were tested through structural equation modeling using SPSS 25.FindingsThe main results of this study indicated that EM and bank performance are positively related. Results also showed that ET and technological turbulence positively moderates this relationship, i.e. this relationship is more robust in highly turbulent business environments than in more stable environments.Practical implicationsThis study provides useful managerial and practical implications. Fruitful insights can be communicated to bank managers in Egypt on the importance of EM and its implications for performance. With an increased understanding of EM, bank managers will come to understand that EM is critical for the sustainability and development of their banks.Originality/valueAn extensive review of the existing research material indicates that this is the first study to examine the relationship between EM and Egyptian banking performance and the moderating role of ET, particularly in large organizations.
The GDP, the US treasury yield and the federal funds rate: who follows whom, when and why?
Authors: Seip Knut Lehre , Zhang Dan 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
This study aims to address the fundamental question on how the major players in the economy dynamically interact with each other: among the central bank, the investors in the bond market and the firms and consumers that contribute to the economic growth, who gets information from whom, when and why?

Design/methodology/approach
To answer “who follows whom,” the authors apply a novel technique to examine the lead–lag relations between three time series, the federal funds rate, the treasury yield curve and the gross domestic product (GDP). To investigate “when and why,” the authors combine the lead–lag relations with principal component analysis to cluster economic states that are similar with respect to the eight macroeconomic variables.

Findings
The authors show that during the period 1977–2019, the bond market potentially obtained information from the federal funds rate (61% of the time) and less often (34% of time) from the changes in the GDP. Meanwhile, the funds rate decision by the Federal Reserve seems to lead the economic growth about 63% of the time. The analysis also suggests that the bond market obtained information directly from GDP when unemployment and inflation was high. In addition, the authors find that the federal funds rate was leading the GDP when the GDP deviated from the target value, consistent with the Federal Reserve’s policy of boosting and damping the economy when the GDP growth is low or high, respectively.

Originality/value
This study provides insights into the fundamental questions that have important implications for empirical work on the monetary policy, financial stability and economic activities.
Blockchain in Indian Public Distribution System: a conceptual framework to prevent leakage of the supplies and its enablers and disablers
Authors: Mishra Himani , Maheshwari Prateek 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework for the application of blockchain in the Public Distribution System (PDS) in India to manage the supply of food grains to the targeted beneficiaries. The framework will help prevent diversions and leakages of grains at the warehouse and Fair Price Shop (FPS) level. The paper also identifies the enablers and disablers in the context of the framework.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper will firstly review the previous literature in PDS and blockchain-enabled agricultural and food supply chains. The study then proposes a framework that could be implemented in the PDS in India using blockchain technology.

Findings
The proposed framework provides an effective way to combat corruption, exclusion errors of targeted beneficiaries, leakage of PDS food grains and is cost-effective. The identified enablers and disablers give an insight into the application of blockchain in PDS in India.

Research limitations/implications
The research work may have implications for the Ministry of Food and PDS (Central Government), Food Corporation of India and State Governments to manage the supply of the grains more efficiently and effectively.

Originality/value
The current study caters to the implementation of blockchain technology starting from the warehouse level to the FPSs and consumers and simultaneously connecting them to concerned authorities to ensure transparency and accountability.
Can a formalised model of co-production contribute to empowering indigenous communities in decisions about land use?
Authors: Gillies Alan 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
Co-production has been used in public services in the UK areas such as mental health to improve the participation of service users in decisions made about the services traditionally provided for them and done to them. It has also been used in areas such as mental health and to address concerns about the quality of services provided to members of minority communities. Western Australia is currently passing legislation to address the issue of aboriginal cultural heritage management in the context of recent adverse incidents such as the incident where Rio Tinto was responsible for the destruction of the site. This paper aims to show how a formalised model of co-production can assist in the implementation of this legislation.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper considers how effective co-production has been within the domain of mental health services in the UK and then considers whether they are lessons that may be learnt in other contexts. It considers whether concepts from co-production have a role to play in ensuring that the legislation and its implementation are not seen as actions done to or on behalf of the aboriginal communities and if a more structured approach to coproduction can produce a model, which facilitates genuinely collaborative aboriginal heritage management.

Findings
The approach has facilitated the development of a model to monitor and improve collaboration within aboriginal cultural heritage management, which complements existing participatory approaches and enables businesses to demonstrate their legislatory compliance.

Social implications
The study offers an approach, which may be used globally to empower indigenous communities in decision-making in other contexts, such as deforestation in South America and oil and gas exploitation on Inuit and First Nations land in Canada.

Originality/value
The use of co-production concepts and capability modelling is novel in this space.
Teaching a while measuring b: cultural bias in assessing student performance
Authors: Seno-Alday Sandra , Budde-Sung Amanda 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to explore the impact of differences in educational traditions on conventions of teaching and learning, and on the measurement of learning outcomes. These are critical issues within the context of business schools that are steeped in one dominant tradition but have a large population of international students previously educated in other traditions. The paper argues that international students face the challenge of satisfactorily demonstrating learning according to foreign conventions that are different from what they would have been accustomed to within the framework of their home educational tradition.

Design/methodology/approach
This study draws on a bilingual literature review to capture differences in educational traditions between Australia and China. It then uses logistic regression to analyze the performance of 800 domestic and international Chinese students across a range of different assessment formats at a large Australian business school.

Findings
The study finds statistically significant differences in the performance of these two student groups on different assessment types. It concludes that the conventions on approaches to the assessment of learning shaped by a specific educational tradition can hamper the effective demonstration of learning among students from other educational traditions.

Originality/value
The paper focuses on issues related to the assessment of learning in multicultural higher education contexts, which has received less attention in the literature compared to issues on teaching approaches in multicultural contexts. The paper also highlights important implications on the validity of the measurement of learning outcomes and on the subsequent impact on graduate recruitment.
The nexus between emotional intelligence and types of knowledge sharing: does work experience matter?
Authors: Malik Shehla 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
Owing to limited research exploring the role of emotional constructs on different types of knowledge sharing, this paper aims to examine the impact of emotional intelligence on two different types of knowledge sharing, namely, tacit knowledge sharing and explicit knowledge sharing. Further, this study also attempts to explore the moderating role of work experience between emotional intelligence-knowledge sharing relationship.

Design/methodology/approach
A survey design methodology is used to collect data from 245 employees of global information technology (IT) companies located in India. Structural equation modelling technique was applied to test the hypothesised relationships among the constructs.

Findings
The results indicate that emotional intelligence has a stronger positive effect on tacit knowledge sharing (ß = 0.78, p < 0.001) compared to explicit knowledge sharing (ß = 0.59, p < 0.001). Multigroup analysis results reveal that influence of emotional intelligence on tacit knowledge sharing was stronger for high experience group compared to low experience group. However, no significant differences were found based on work experience for the emotional intelligence-explicit knowledge sharing relationship.

Practical implications
This study suggests suitable interventions that management can adopt to enhance tacit as well as explicit knowledge sharing in global IT organisations.

Originality/value
This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the differences that exists between tacit and explicit knowledge sharing and highlights the impact of emotional intelligence on these distinctively. It advances knowledge sharing literature and brings uniqueness by exploring the moderating role of work experience on emotional intelligence-knowledge sharing relationship in a non-western setting.
Implications of recent reforms to auditor reporting requirements in Australia
Authors: Rahaman Md Mustafizur , Chand Parmod 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to address a topical and controversial issue, namely, the degree of conformity with the new auditor reporting requirements in Australia and the extent of variations in the reporting of key audit matters (KAMs) by Australian firms.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper compares the 64 elements identified in the applicable standards with the auditor’s report from the sampled companies to determine the degree to which the top 200 firms listed on the Australian Stock Exchange are complying with the requirements of the new audit report. This paper investigates KAM disclosures within and across industries.

Findings
The results indicate that there is a high degree of conformity with the new reporting framework, yet significant variations in the contents of the report, particularly in KAM disclosures. This paper observes that the number of KAMs and their extent of disclosure generally varies within industries. The types of KAMs presented vary both within and across industries. This paper further provides evidence that auditors have a tendency of not disclosing negative KAMs and tend to avoid negative wordings when describing KAMs. This paper also finds that there are significant differences in the placement of various types of KAMs in the audit report.

Practical implications
These findings have important policy implications for the standard-setters, regulators, auditors and users of financial reports on the adequacy of the new auditor reporting framework.

Originality/value
This study is one of the first to examine the degree of conformity with the new audit reporting model in Australia.
Auxetic structures fabricated by material extrusion: an experimental investigation of gradient parameters
Authors: Vyavahare Swapnil , Teraiya Soham , Kumar Shailendra 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
This paper aims to focus on studying the influence of gradient parameters, namely, thickness coefficient, length coefficient and height ratio of auxetic structure on responses such as strength, stiffness and specific energy absorption (SEA) under compressive loading. Optimization of significant parameters is also performed to maximize responses. Further, efforts have also been made to develop regression models for strength, stiffness and SEA of auxetic structure.

Design/methodology/approach
Central composite design of response surface methodology is used for planning experiments. Auxetic structures of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and poly-lactic acid (PLA) materials are fabricated by the material extrusion (ME) technique of additive manufacturing. Fabricated structures are tested under in-plane uniaxial compressive loading. Grey relational analysis is used for the optimization of gradient parameters of the unit cell of auxetic structure to maximize responses and minimize weight and time of fabrication.

Findings
From the analysis of variance of experimental data, it is found that the compressive strength of auxetic structures increases with a decrease in length coefficient and height ratio. In the case of ABS structures, stiffness increases with a decrease in thickness coefficient and length coefficient, while in the case of PLA structures, stiffness increases with a decrease in length coefficient and height ratio. SEA is influenced by length coefficient and thickness coefficient in ABS and PLA structures, respectively. Based on the analysis, statistical non-linear quadratic models are developed to predict strength, stiffness and SEA. Optimal configuration of auxetic structure is determined to maximize strength, stiffness, SEA and minimize weight and time of fabrication.

Research limitations/implications
The present study is limited to re-entrant type of auxetic structures made of ABS and PLA materials only under compressive loading. Also, results from the current study are valid within a selected range of gradient parameters. The findings of the present study are useful in the optimal selection of gradient parameters for the fabrication of auxetic structures of maximum strength, stiffness and SEA with minimum weight and time of fabrication. These outcomes have wide applications in domains such as automotive, aerospace, sports and marine sectors.

Originality/value
Limited literature is available on studying the influence of gradient parameters of ME manufactured auxetic structure of ABS and PLA materials on responses, namely, strength, stiffness and SEA under compressive loading. Also, no work has been reported on studying the influence of gradient parameters on mechanical properties, weight and time of fabrication of auxetic structures. The present study is an attempt to fulfil the above research gaps.
The mediating role of financial governance on the relationship between financial management, Islamic work ethic and accountability in Islamic social enterprise (ISE)
Authors: Kamaruddin Muhammad Iqmal Hisham , Auzair Sofiah Md , Rahmat Mohd Mohid , Muhamed Nurul Aini 
Published: June 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to examine the role of financial governance practices in influencing both financial management and Islamic work ethic practices to affect Islamic social enterprises (ISEs) accountability.

Design/methodology/approach
Questionnaires were administered to financial officers of 102 Malaysian ISEs. Data was analysed using Smart-PLS to examine the relationships between financial management, Islamic work ethic, financial governance and accountability.

Findings
Results of this study indicate direct relationship only exist between Islamic work ethic and accountability. The relationship between financial management and accountability are indirect through financial governance. Hence, the data proves that financial governance has a mediating role on both the relationships between financial management and Islamic work ethic with the accountability of the ISEs.

Research limitations/implications
The study has highlighted the greater role of financial management, Islamic work ethic and financial governance practices over accountability to achieve public trust, especially for Malaysian ISEs.

Practical implications
ISEs need to have good financial governance practices besides financial management and Islamic work ethic practices to achieve good accountability.

Originality/value
The study contributes to the field of management and social accounting by providing empirical evidence on the ISEs practices specifically on financial management, Islamic work ethic, financial governance and accountability. This framework thus presents amongst the first attempts in studying accountability issues in ISEs.
