The reciprocal relationship between profitability and capital structure and its impacts on the corporate values of manufacturing companies in Indonesia
Authors: Mangesti Rahayu Sri , Suhadak  , Saifi Muhammad 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the reciprocal relationship between profitability and capital structure and its impacts on the corporate values of manufacturing companies in Indonesia.Design/methodology/approachThis research is a quantitative research using the general structural component analysis as the analysis tool. This research involved a number of manufacturing companies registered in the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2008‒2015 period.FindingsProfitability has a negative significant influence on capital structure, indicating that profitability is a determining factor upon the corporate capital structure. This finding also implies that the improvement in profitability in the forms of return on investment, return on equity and net profit margin triggers decrease in the proportion of debt within the capital structures of manufacturing companies registered in BEI or Indonesia Stock Exchange.Originality/valuePrevious research only addressed the one-way correlation between profitability and capital structure, whereas this research measured the two-way correlation and reciprocal relationship at the same time. This research measured the influences of profitability and capital structure on the corporate value, in order to find a consistent finding that has not been yet obtained in previous research. This research also attempted to find out whether the use of the same variables within different time and setting (in Indonesia) leads to different results. The inconsistent findings also motivate the researcher to re-explore the reciprocal influence of corporate profitability on corporate capital structure and its effect toward the corporate value.
Effective factors in achieving an accurate finite element simulation of shear links
Authors: Tashakori Javad , Ansari Sara , Razzaghi Javad 
Published: August 2019

Purpose
During severe earthquakes, the inelastic energy dissipation of eccentrically braced frame system depends on shear links performance. A finite element model can predict links behavior appropriately if the factors causing large discrepancies are recognized and modified. The paper aims to discuss this issue.

Design/methodology/approach
In order to achieve this, the present paper discusses the cyclic response of five types of shear links constructed of various steel grades that ranged from 100 to 485 MPa yield strength. Finite element models are verified by experimental results. As these links have substantial differences in strain hardening of steel materials, different amplitudes of material stress‒strain curve loops are used to specify the level of strain hardening in finite element models.

Findings
The solid and shell elements in ABAQUS element factory can predict local buckling perfectly, and the computation cost of the former is significantly more than the latter. However, one of the solid elements can predict plastic deformation accurately if no local buckling emerges. The axial constraint of test setup equipment can cause excessive plastic deformation in comparison to the link plastic rotation capacity. Furthermore, some shear links with middle stiffeners can reach inaccurate high plastic rotations due to lack of defining fracture criteria in finite element models.

Originality/value
In this study, some resources of discrepancies between experimental results and finite element models are mentioned to ensure the reliable use of finite element models.
Exploring user sentiment towards sponsorship and ambush marketing
Authors: Burton Nick 
Published: August 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore consumer attitudes towards ambush marketing and official event sponsorship through the lens of sentiment analysis, and to examine social media users' ethical responses to digital event marketing campaigns during the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Design/methodology/approach
The study employed a sentiment analysis, examining Twitter users’ utilization of sponsor and non-sponsor promotional hashtags. Statistical modelling programme R was used to access Twitter’s API, enabling the analysis and coding of user tweets pertaining to six marketing campaigns. The valence of each tweet – as well as the apparent user motivation underlying each post – was assessed, providing insight into Twitter users’ ethical impressions of sponsor and ambush marketer activities on social media and online engagement with social media marketing.

Findings
The study’s findings indicate that consumer attitudes towards ambush marketing may be significantly more positive than previously thought. Users’ attitudes towards ambush marketing appear significantly more positive than previously assumed, as users of social media emerged as highly responsive to creative and value-added non-sponsor campaigns.

Originality/value
The findings affirm that sentiment analysis may afford scholars and practitioners a viable means of assessing consumer attitudes towards social marketing activations, dependent upon campaign objectives and strategy. The study provides a new and invaluable context to consumer affect and ambush ethics research, advancing sponsorship and ambush marketing delivery and social sponsorship analytical practice.
The relationships of brand experience, sports event image and loyalty
Authors: Girish V.G. , Lee Choong-Ki 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships among brand experience, sports event image and loyalty in the Jeju International Ultramarathon Race.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from 313 ultramarathon runners during the 16th Jeju International Ultramarathon Race. Statistical analyses were carried out using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling.FindingsAn analysis of the relationship between brand experience and sports event image revealed that affective experience is the most influential dimension, followed by sensory and behavioral experiences. However, intellectual experience showed insignificant relationship. Sports event image indicated a positive effect on word-of-mouth and revisit intention.Research limitations/implicationsUltramarathon races are sporting events with few participants, even though it is becoming more popular. The attitude, motivation and personality of people participating in these races may be different in terms of the extreme characteristic and endurance level of sports activity. If the results of this study need to be generalized with other sports event images, a comparative study may help to understand the personality traits of people participating in ultramarathon races and other sports.Practical implicationsAs ultramarathon races are not yet popular sports, to target more people, behavioral experience has an influential role because it is action oriented and actively engages the body. Enriching consumer life by facilitating and creating opportunities to physically experience as well as showing them alternate ways of doing things may attract them to substitute lifestyle and interactions (Pine and Gilmore, 1999). Few other popular endurance race events organize short-distance races and kid races for fun (e.g. Lavaredo Ultra trail race), to engage friends and family members before the start of the main event. Doing so may provide an opportunity to attract more runners, and they may engage in running activities and participate in these kinds of events later, after having this sort of casual experience.Social implicationsSocial networking sites may be used to maintain continuous interaction with the runners and followers. Supporting a social cause is another measure to generate the intellectual experience of sports events. The result of this study shows no significant relationship between intellectual experience and the sports event image. To increase the worldwide popularity of this race and to attract more international runners, a judicious use of web platforms may be an option to maintain regular contact with a wider group of audience.Originality/valueThis study is the first to examine the relationship between brand experience and sports event image in an ultramarathon event context. Findings contribute to an understanding of the impact of brand experience on sports event image, thereby influencing the loyalty of runners participating in an ultramarathon event.
Between welfare state and (state-organised) charity
Authors: Öktem Kerem Gabriel , Erdogan Cansu 
Published: August 2019

PurposeOver the last four decades, Turkey has built an elaborate social assistance regime, which provides extensive coverage of the poor but lacks some of the key characteristics of European minimum income protection systems. The purpose of this paper is to explore what ideational roots underlie the regime and how these ideas and paradigms historically shaped the structure of the regime. The paper focuses on two central social assistance legislations: the social pensions law of 1976 and the Law that established the Fund for the Encouragement of Social Cooperation and Solidarity in 1986.Design/methodology/approachBased on a discursive institutionalist approach, the paper combines a qualitative content analysis of parliamentary debates and official reports with a policy analysis of social assistance legislations in Turkey.FindingsThe paper shows that two competing policy paradigms shaped the ambivalent structure and design of Turkey social assistance regime: a welfare state paradigm and a state-organised charity paradigm. The welfare state paradigm, which perceives social assistance as a social right, was dominant in the 1970s and is embodied in the social pension programme. The state-organised charity paradigm, which aims to reinvigorate the Islamic tradition of charitable foundations (waqf), was dominant in the 1980s and is embodied in the Fund for the Encouragement of Social Cooperation and Solidarity. Today’s social assistance regime combines both elements in a curious synthesis.Originality/valueThe paper contributes to comparative social policy research and discursive institutionalism by uncovering the historical and ideational foundations of a largely neglected case, social assistance in Turkey.

Authors: Weatherbee Terrance G. , Sears Donna , MacNeil Ryan 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to systematically review the body of work featured in theInternational Journal of Wine Business Research(IJWBR) since its transition from theInternational Journal of Wine Marketing(IJWM) in 2007, and to assess the collective evolution of the topical structure of published research against the Journal’s aims as described in the inaugural editorial.Design/methodology/approachA scientometric study using both network analysis and narrative methods was used to evaluate the research contents of theIJWBR.FindingsResults lead to four conclusions. Overall, the research published inIJWBRhas met the editorial aim of expanding beyond the marketing focus ofIJWM. Second, the Journal has become increasingly international in its approach to research activities, both in terms of authorship and sites of study. Third, the methods used in the study of wine business have advanced from descriptive univariate to more complex or predictive multivariate approaches. Finally, despite all of these desired advances, research grounded in marketing and consumer behavior perspectives still predominates the Journal.Originality/valueThis is the first review ofIJWBRto use a scientometric method; and this paper provides a description and assessment of progress made toward the publishing goals first envisioned for the Journal at its transition fromIJWMtoIJWBR.
The role of cooperation agreements in the internationalization of Spanish winery and olive oil family firms
Authors: Sanchez-Famoso Valeriano , Cano-Rubio Myriam , Fuentes-Lombardo Guadalupe 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThis study aims to identify the mediating role of cooperation agreements in the relationship between family involvement in international firms and their level of international commitment.Design/methodology/approachThe study focuses on Spanish international wine and olive oil companies that have varying levels of family involvement. The final sample consists of 263 companies. SmartPLS was used to perform the analysis.FindingsA higher level of family involvement in business implies greater difficulties with cooperation agreements. Additionally, family involvement is negatively associated with the firm’s level of international commitment, and the perceived difficulties of cooperation agreements mediate this relationship.Practical implicationsThis study is of interest to business managers with different levels of family involvement. The study clarifies their perceptions of cooperation agreements and international business commitment. Managers of firms with a high level of family involvement should emphasize the multiple benefits of cooperation agreements for international strategy performance rather than the drawbacks of cooperation. Additionally, through cooperation, companies can learn about destination markets, which may help them to focus their resources effectively in those markets.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the literature on the internationalization strategies of family businesses. This study is the first to address the mediating role of cooperation agreements in the relationship between family involvement and international commitment.
Self-gratification and self-discrepancy in purchase of digital items
Authors: Li Shuainan , Phang Chee Wei , Ling Hong 
Published: August 2019

PurposeWhile previous research underscored self-presentation desire as an important motivator of digital item purchase, user needs for digital items may become increasingly inner-focused with the maturation of virtual communities (VCs). The purpose of this paper is to posit that self-discrepancy and self-gratification are key to explaining user purchase of digital items.Design/methodology/approachA survey of 310 users of a social media-based VC well supports the hypotheses.FindingsThe tenet of this study is that individuals purchase digital items in VCs not only for self-presentation purposeper se, but more importantly for reasons of more inner-focused, such as due to their self-discrepancy that motivates them to purchase digital items to enhance self-esteem, and also for self-gratification. Furthermore, self-discrepancy arising from comparing ones’ current self against how they perceive others expect them to ideally be (i.e. self-other discrepancy) increases their self-presentation desire.Originality/valueOverall the findings enrich the current view that individuals purchase digital items mainly to present themselves to others (Kimet al., 2012), thus affording a more complete understanding of this behavior that has both important research and practical implications.
The role of self-regulatory mode on acquisition–retention ambidexterity
Authors: Vieira Valter Afonso , Faia Valter da Silva , Boles James , Marioti Bruno Rafael , Pereira Rita Cassia 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to develop a theoretical model that posits locomotion-assessment ambidextrous orientation as predictor of salesperson acquisition–retention ambidexterity, which as a consequence increases sales. The authors drawing on regulatory focus theory and self-regulatory for this propose.Design/methodology/approachSalespeople involved in the study represent different firms selling a wide variety of food and household products to a wholesaler, which resells them to supermarket chains. The authors collected data from 231 industrial salespeople.FindingsFirst, salesperson assessment focus amplified locomotion’s effect on acquisition–retention ambidexterity. Second, salespeople increased their performance by implementing an acquisition–retention ambidextrous orientation that balances prospecting for new customers and growing existing customers. Third, findings revealed a mediating effect of ambidextrous orientation on the relationship between regulatory mode and sales performance. Finally, outcomes supported the conditional moderated-mediated effect of regulatory mode in explaining performance through ambidextrous orientation.Practical implicationsResults suggest that salespeople need to equalize their dual orientations in a complementary way to elaborate their selling strategies according to each customer. For example, in an unbalanced orientation, putting high levels of assessment into a sales encounter can reduce the effective and efficient use of time in interacting with customers.Originality/valueThe authors further illustrate the importance of using both locomotion and assessment in attaining sales goals (Pierroet al.2013). This synergistic effect is known as the complementary hypothesis (Pierroet al., 2006a, 2006b). Each dimension complements the other and has a moderated-mediated effect on performance through acquisition–retention ambidexterity.
Value formation with immersive technologies: an activity perspective
Authors: Nussipova Gulnar , Nordin Fredrik , Sörhammar David 
Published: August 2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to contribute a framework that explains how value is formed during the usage of immersive technologies in industrial contexts.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on activity theory and a customer-dominant logic, the authors tentatively develop an activity-centric framework for value formation enabled by physical and mental activities conducted by users of immersive technologies. The authors evaluate the framework through a case study focusing on the use of virtual reality (VR) in an industrial setting.FindingsThe findings from the case study illustrate the tentative framework and specify how it is enacted by users in the studied context through three physical activities constituted by a set of actions and reflected in five emotional responses.Research limitations/implicationsBoth researchers and practitioners may use the framework presented in this paper as a guide for further academic and practical developments concerning the value of immersive technologies such as VR and augmented reality.Originality/valueThe activity-centric framework contributes a novel perspective to the literature on value formation enabled by immersive technologies.
Public libraries and the social web: a review and analysis of the existing literature
Authors: Choi Namjoo , Harper Lindsey M. 
Published: August 2019

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to update Carlsson (2015), which examined the research on public libraries and the social web published from 2006 to 2012, and it also intends to go beyond Carlsson (2015) by including six additional variables.

Design/methodology/approach
Literature searches were performed against Web of Science Core Collection and EBSCOhost databases. By adapting Carlsson’s (2015) three level key phrase searches, which were then complemented by chain searching, a total of 60 articles were identified and analyzed.

Findings
In comparison to Carlsson (2015), this study shows that the recent research, published between 2012 and 2018, leans toward a more general acceptance of the social web’s usage to improve the services provided by public libraries; that the public library is rarely premised to be in a state of crisis; and that the social web is mostly perceived as having a complementary relationship with librarianship and library services. The findings from analyzing the six additional variables are also presented.

Research limitations/implications
The findings from this study provide LIS professionals a greater understanding of where the research stands on the topic at present, and this study also identifies gaps in the literature to offer insight into the areas where future research can be directed.

Originality/value
Given the continued popularity of social web usage among public libraries, this study examines the literature published on the social web in the public library context between 2012 and 2018 and offers implications and future research suggestions.
A multi-criteria decision-making approach to minimising fire risk in detached house designs
Authors: Bendak Salaheddine , Alhammadi Ahlam A. 
Published: August 2019

Purpose
House fire risk would be minimised if fire safety principles were incorporated at the design stage. This issue is rarely addressed in the literature. The purpose of this study is to propose a multi-criteria decision-making framework to evaluate fire risk of detached house designs in the United Arab Emirates and countries of similar cultural background.

Design/methodology/approach
The framework was developed based on function areas where (detached) house fires start, expert opinion and recommendations derived from the published literature on residential fire safety. This framework was applied to a sample of ten public detached house designs to check the applicability of the framework and to determine how safe these designs are from a fire safety perspective.

Findings
The proposed framework is proven to be an effective preliminary fire risk evaluation tool of detached house designs, and more research is needed in this area.

Research limitations/implications
The proposed framework is an encouraging first step in incorporating fire risk minimisation at the design stage of detached houses based on determining the preferred location of function areas but requires further development and validation, especially in other design settings.

Practical implications
The proposed framework is an initial endeavour in helping designers of detached houses to minimise fire risk and its potential effects on residents.

Originality/value
This research proposes a way to minimise fire risk at the design stage of detached houses.
SiLearn: an intelligent sign vocabulary learning tool
Authors: Joy Jestin , Balakrishnan Kannan , M. Sreeraj 
Published: August 2019

Purpose
Vocabulary learning is a difficult task for children without hearing ability. Absence of enough learning centers and effective learning tools aggravate the problem. Modern technology can be utilized fruitfully to find solutions to the learning difficulties experienced by the deaf. The purpose of this paper is to present SiLearn – a novel technology based tool for teaching/learning sign vocabulary.

Design/methodology/approach
The proposed mobile application can act as a visual dictionary for deaf people. SiLearn is equipped with features that can automatically detect both text and physical objects and convert them to their corresponding signs. For testing the effectiveness of the proposed mobile application quantitative analyses were done. Quantitative analysis is based on testing a class of 28 students belonging to St Clare Oral School for the Deaf, Kerala, India. This group consisted of 17 boys and 11 girls. Analysis was also done through questionnaire. Questionnaires were given to teachers, parents of deaf students learning sign language and other sign language learners.

Findings
Results indicate that as SiLearn is very effective in sign vocabulary development. It can enhance vocabulary learning rate considerably.

Originality/value
This is the first time that artificial intelligence (AI) based techniques are used for early stage sign language learning. SiLearn can equally be used by children, parents and teachers for learning sign language.
