Identifying child victims of the South-East Asia Tsunami in Thailand
Authors: Wright Kirsty , Mundorff Amy , Chaseling Janet , Maguire Christopher , Crane Denis I. 
Published: July 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to reveal difficulties associated with identifying child victims of the 2004 South-East Asia Tsunami at the Thai Tsunami Victim Identification (TTVI) operation in Phuket and explores two strategies that increased child identifications.

Design/methodology/approach
Data allowing comparison of identification proportions between adult and child (defined as ⩽16 years old) victims of six nationalities and the forensic methods used to establish identification were used in this study.

Findings
The first 100 days of the operation revealed that the proportion of adult identifications far outweighed the proportion of child identifications. Moreover, the younger the child, the longer the identification process took (p<0.0001). Children under the age of 1 year took an average of 195 days to identify compared to 130 days for children aged 16. Identification was extended, on average, 4.3 days for each year that victims younger were than 16. Identifying large numbers of child victims requires targeted protocols. Two efforts increased child identifications for the TTVI operation: using body length to distinguish post-mortem (PM) DNA samples potentially belonging to children for targeted testing, and singling out deceased parents of missing children who were previously identified by a modality other than DNA, in order to retrieve and test their PM samples as references for kinship matching. Disaster victim identification operations with similar characteristics may benefit from implementing a strategy targeting child identifications.

Originality/value
The implementation of these two strategies at the TTVI helped to overcome initial complexities, namely, the lack of ante-mortem and PM material, and increased child identifications.
Prioritising solutions for Lean Six Sigma adoption barriers through fuzzy AHP-modified TOPSIS framework
Authors: Yadav Gunjan , Seth Dinesh , Desai Tushar N. 
Published: July 2018

Purpose
This paper aims to guide about prioritisation and ranking of the solutions and overcoming barriers to facilitate the adoption of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) by using a hybrid framework.

Design/methodology/approach
It identifies LSS barriers and solutions to facilitate LSS adoption through literature review and by involving subject experts. The study makes use of fuzzy set theory and proposes a fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (AHP)-modified TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution) framework. It uses sensitivity analysis to establish framework robustness.

Findings
The key findings of this techno-managerial study are identification and prioritisation of 27 LSS barriers and 22 solutions to overcome adoption challenges, proposition and usage of fuzzy AHP-modified TOPSIS framework, guidance regarding where to focus for facilitating LSS adoption and ensuring robustness using sensitivity analysis, which establishes insignificant deviation in rankings when criteria weights are altered.

Research limitations/implications
Some biasness and subjectivity may exist during pairwise comparisons as human judgements are involved.

Practical implications
Handling a hybrid solution like LSS is never easy. It is expected that the study will help industry professionals to plan their LSS adoption attempts effectively. Guidance regarding LSS barriers will assist in observing necessary precautions to avoid failures. It will open up new research fronts for researchers also.

Originality/value
Literature is full of studies regarding LSS barriers and its rankings. It is very rare to witness a study like ours, which discusses the barriers and links with solutions and its prioritisation. Proposed hybrid framework for a hybrid techno-managerial approach such as LSS is unique and acts as the roadmap for smooth implementation.
Investors overconfidence behaviour at Bombay Stock Exchange
Authors: Mushinada Venkata Narasimha Chary , Veluri Venkata Subrahmanya Sarma 
Published: July 2018

Purpose
The purpose of the paper is to empirically test the overconfidence hypothesis at Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).

Design/methodology/approach
The study applies bivariate vector autoregression to perform the impulse-response analysis and EGARCH models to understand whether there is self-attribution bias and overconfidence behavior among the investors.

Findings
The study shows the empirical evidence in support of overconfidence hypothesis. The results show that the overconfident investors overreact to private information and underreact to the public information. Based on EGARCH specifications, it is observed that self-attribution bias, conditioned by right forecasts, increases investors’ overconfidence and the trading volume. Finally, the analysis of the relation between return volatility and trading volume shows that the excessive trading of overconfident investors makes a contribution to the observed excessive volatility.

Research limitations/implications
The study focused on self-attribution and overconfidence biases using monthly data. Further studies can be encouraged to test the proposed hypotheses on daily data and also other behavioral biases.

Practical implications
Insights from the study suggest that the investors should perform a post-analysis of each investment so that they become aware of past behavioral mistakes and stop continuing the same. This might help investors to minimize the negative impact of self-attribution and overconfidence on their expected utility.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to examine the investors’ overconfidence behavior at market-level data in BSE, India.
A social exchange perspective for achieving safety culture in healthcare organizations
Authors: Trinchero Elisabetta , Farr-Wharton Ben , Brunetto Yvonne 
Published: July 2018

PurposeUsing social exchange theory (SET) and Cooper’s (2000) model, the purpose of this paper is to operationalise a comprehensive model of safety culture and tests whether SET factors (supervisor-employee relationships and engagement) predict safety culture in a causal chain.Design/methodology/approachThe model was tested using surveys from 648 healthcare staff in an Italian acute care hospital and analysed using structural equation modelling.FindingsSafety behaviours of clinical staff can be explained by the quality of the supervisor-employee relationship, their engagement, their feelings about safety and the quality of organisational support.Practical implicationsThe model provides a roadmap for strategically embedding effective safe behaviours. Management needs to improve healthcare staff’s workplace relationships to enhance engagement and to shape beliefs about safety practices.Originality/valueThe contribution of this paper is that it has empirically developed and tested a comprehensive model of safety culture that identifies a causal chain for healthcare managers to follow so as to embed an effective safety culture.
Antecedents and consequences of intellectual capital
Authors: Allameh Sayyed Mohsen 
Published: July 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose and test an integrated model focusing on the drivers and consequences of intellectual capital in the context of the hotel industry.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative study was conducted, including 156 hotels located in Iran. Structural equation modeling examines the validity of constructs and path relationships.FindingsThe results of the PLS-SEM analysis provided three findings as follows: the three dimensions of social capital, namely the structural, relational, and cognitive social capital, had positive effects on knowledge sharing; knowledge sharing had positive effects on three components of intellectual capital (human capital, structural capital and relational capital); and intellectual capital dimensions, which in turn, lead to innovation.Originality/valueThe combination of a developing country context and the significance of social capital, knowledge sharing, intellectual capital and innovation in hotel industry enhance the contextual contribution of the paper.
Improving inter-organizational care-cure designs: specialization versus integration
Authors: Pieters Angele , van Oorschot Kim E. , Akkermans Henk A. , Brailsford Sally C. 
Published: July 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate inter-organizational designs for care–cure conditions in which low-risk patients are cared for in specialized care organizations and high-risk patients are cared for in specialized cure organizations. Performance impacts of increasing levels of integration between these organizations are analyzed.Design/methodology/approachMixed methods were used in Dutch perinatal care: analysis of archival data, clinical research and system dynamics simulation modeling.FindingsInter-organizational design has an effect on inter-organizational dynamics such as collaboration and trust, and also on the operational aspects such as patient flows through the system. Solutions are found in integrating care and cure organizations. However, not all levels of integrated designs perform better than a design based on organizational separation of care and cure.Practical implicationsA clear split between midwifery practices (care) and obstetric departments (cure) will not work since all pregnant women need both care and cure. Having midwifery practices only works well when there are high levels of collaboration and trust with obstetric departments in hospitals. Integrated care designs are likely to exhibit superior performance. However, these designs will have an adverse effect on organizations that are not part of this integration, since integrating only a subset of organizations will feed distrust, low collaboration and hence low performance.Originality/valueThe originality of this research is derived from its multi-method approach. Archival data and clinical research revealed the dynamic relations between organizations. The caveat of some integrated care models was found through simulation.
Conflict as it happens
Authors: Kykyri Virpi-Liisa , Puutio Risto 
Published: July 2018

PurposeAlthough emotions are relevant for conflicted interactions, the role of emotions in organizational conflicts has remained understudied. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to this by looking at the role of nonverbal affective elements in conversations.Design/methodology/approachBringing together organizational “becoming” and embodiment approaches, the study focused on a conflict which emerged during a multi-actor consulting conversation. The episode in question was analyzed via a detailed, micro-level discursive method which focused specifically on the participants’ use of prosodic and nonverbal behaviors.FindingsChanges in prosody were found to have an important role in how the conflict between a consultant and an employee client emerged and was handled. Nonverbal and prosodic means had a central role in creating legitimate space for the employees’ feelings: they helped to validate the feelings and thus led the interlocutors to act in a more constructive manner in their handling of the conflicted situation.Research limitations/implicationsFindings are based on a single case study. Multi-modal analysis proved effective in capturing the relevant interactions in a comprehensive manner.Practical implicationsConversational “traps” may be observed by becoming alert to interactional patterns involving repeated chains of actions. A nonverbal response, validating the interlocutor as someone who is entitled to her/his feelings, can be sufficient in providing emotional help in consultancy.Social implicationsNonverbal elements of interactions are important in handling delicate issues in conflicts.Originality/valueTo the authors’ knowledge, no previous organizational research has provided a detailed description of a conflicted interaction “as it happened” between clients and a consultant.
Ambiguous spaces: the charity-NGO nexus in Iceland
Authors: Rice James Gordon , Wojtyńska Anna 
Published: July 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to provide a case study which analyses the ambiguous relationship that Icelandic charities and NGOs have with the formal social welfare services they collaborate with as well as the clients they serve.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper is based upon the combined work of both authors and drawn from a number of projects spanning the years immediately preceding the Icelandic economic crisis of 2008, through to the years of crisis and recovery, and into the present context. This contribution is a combination of a re-analysis of older material combined with new data and emergent issues.

Findings
The contribution argues charities and NGOs in Iceland operate within an ambiguous space, not part of the formal welfare authorities yet in practice in collaboration with them. One danger is that the charitable environment offers no clear legal protections concerning client rights or entitlements to assistance, or grievance redress mechanisms typical of the formal social assistance schemes. Further, the ways in which charities exclude certain segments of the population is troubling, particularly in consideration of the lack of protections and the willingness of governments to download the costs of and responsibilities for services to non-professional and private charities and NGOs.

Social implications
The findings are intended to contribute toward encouraging critical discussion about the appeal of charity as a service alternative in the context of governmental cutbacks and austerity measures.

Originality/value
The findings are based upon limited but original case studies in Iceland.
Green consumption: a network analysis in marketing
Authors: Semprebon Elder , Mantovani Danielle , Demczuk Rafael , Souto Maior Cecilia , Vilasanti Victoria 
Published: July 2018

Purpose
Considerable research has been performed to understand green consumption behavior. Given the emergence of this discussion, the purpose of this paper is to apply network analytical techniques to identify the main theoretical relationships regarding green consumption in the most relevant journals between 2000 and 2016.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper applies a fit-for-purpose systematic review using network analysis, which includes a screening of 4,049 articles published in 39 journals in the business and marketing subjects, ranked by the Q1 extract of SCImago Journal & Country Rank, accessed between March and July 2017. From 2000 to 2016, 216 articles were selected in 24 journals. The explored variables formed 21 categories.

Findings
Five network groups emerged according to the background theories used by green consumption studies: “Consumers’ and companies’ characteristics and actions,” “Consumer intentions, perceptions and their cognitive mechanisms,” “Environmental concern effects,” “Attitudes toward green expertise” and “Behavioral control”. The findings showed what variables have a central relevance to the network, being essential to explain green consumption phenomenon, exploring relations and pointing out gaps for future studies.

Practical implications
Based on the strongest connections between the network groups, practical implications are offered for marketers interested in developing actions promoting green consumption.

Originality/value
This paper identifies the main categories related to green consumption in a network analysis, showing its antecedents and consequents grouped in five clusters. These results indicate that there are relationships still awaiting further investigation.
Neighborhood by neighborhood: community policing in a rust belt city
Authors: Cooley Will , Bemiller Michelle , Jefferis Eric , Penix Rose 
Published: July 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine citizen satisfaction with police services and perceived safety using survey research in two high crime neighborhoods. Problem-oriented crime deterrence strategies were used in one neighborhood, the other served as a control group.Design/methodology/approachMixed-methods approach was used to measure the effectiveness of problem-oriented approaches in persistent high-crime areas. Pre- and post-intervention surveys were conducted by sampling addresses in both neighborhoods and analyzing results.FindingsNo between-neighborhood differences were reported regarding the satisfaction with police services or improvement in perceived safety.Originality/valueThese findings suggest that this deterrence strategy is a promising approach to reducing crime while not damaging community perceptions. However, departments must vary place-based strategies, and prevention is difficult given historical contexts, the absence of credible community partners and limited resources in a declining city.
Generality of associations between biological richness and the rates of metabolic processes across microbial communities
Authors: Patsch Deborah , van Vliet Simon , Marcantini Lorenzo Garbani , Johnson David R. 
Published: July 2018

SummaryBiological richness is positively associated with the rates of some metabolic processes performed by microbial communities. It remains unclear, however, whether these positive associations are a general feature of the metabolic processes performed by microbial communities or whether they are specific to certain types of metabolic processes. For example, it was hypothesized that the strength of any particular positive association depends on how many different genotypes within a microbial community perform the metabolic process of interest (i.e. the ‘rarity hypothesis’). We tested the generality of these positive associations by measuring the taxonomic richness, functional gene richness and rate constants for 71 different metabolic processes across 30 independent microbial communities. We found that both taxonomic and functional gene richness do indeed tend to positively associate with the rates of metabolic processes. In addition, we found that positive associations occur across a wide range of different environmental conditions. Counter to the ‘rarity hypothesis’, however, we did not detect a relationship between the strengths of the positive associations and the rarity of each metabolic process. Together, our data provide empirical evidence that positive associations with biological richness may indeed be a general feature of the metabolic processes performed by microbial communities.
Integration of MRI target delineation into rapid workflow cervical cancer brachytherapy: Impact on clinical outcomes
Authors: Dutta Sunil W , Trifiletti Daniel M , Pugh Kelly J , Romano Kara D , Libby Bruce , Showalter Timothy N 
Published: July 2018

AbstractIntroductionWe evaluated the impact of MRI‐based target delineation on toxicity and tumour control after implementation of a protocol to incorporate MRI while minimizing impact on overall procedural time.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed outcomes for a cohort of 96 consecutive patients who received intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer at our institution during 2012–2016. Starting in October 2014, an outpatient MRI was obtained for patients after Smit sleeve placement and first insertion to assess concurrent chemoradiotherapy tumour response. Then, for subsequent fractions, the MRI was co‐registered by the Smit sleeve to the planning CT for target volume delineation. The primary and secondary outcomes were toxicity and local control, respectively.ResultsMedian follow‐up for the pre‐ (n = 50) and post‐MRI‐based (n = 46) planning groups was 24.6 and 14.7 months, respectively. Median treatment duration for patients before and after MRI implementation was 56 and 58 days (P = 0.052), respectively. Cumulative rectal D2 cc was less for those with MRI‐based target delineation (P = 0.005). On multivariable analysis, patients with MRI‐based target delineation experienced fewer severe late (CTCAE grade ≥ 3) toxicities (P = 0.025, hazard ratio = 0.25). Local control was 86% and 91% of the pre‐ and post‐MRI groups, respectively (P = 0.959).ConclusionsPreliminary findings using this technique, which is applicable to other institutions without in‐room MRI availability, are associated with lower radiation prescription doses, lower rectal doses and favourable toxicity rates while maintaining a rapid workflow. Longer follow‐up is required to confirm equivalent local control.

Authors: Namyatova Anna A. , Cassis Gerasimos 
Published: July 2018

AbstractPsallopinae are the smallest subfamily within the heteropteran family Miridae, including only two extant genera and 18 species. This group is widely distributed in the Old World but previously has never been recorded from Australia. In this work, Psallopinae is recorded for the first time from the Australian continent, with the description of three new species of Psallops Usinger . A comparison of the Australian taxa with extralimital species is provided. The distribution of Psallops in Australia, the morphology of the genus and the systematic position of Psallopinae within Miridae are discussed.

AbstractAimPrimary malignant lymphomas arising from the female genital tract are very rare, with an incidence rate of 0.5%. Because of its rarity, its clinical characteristics, prognosis and optimal treatment are still unclear. Here, we retrospectively evaluated female patients with uterine lymphoma.MethodsBetween January 2000 and October 2016, 4362 patients were newly diagnosed with malignant lymphoma by the participating institutions of YACHT. Among these 4362 patients, we retrospectively evaluated 14 adult patients with primary uterine lymphoma.ResultsThe median follow up time was 41 months. The median age at diagnosis was 68 years. Of 14 patients, 10 (72%) were diagnosed with diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma. Seven patients presented with vaginal bleeding and three with abdominal pain. Eleven patients (79%) had advanced stages at diagnosis. Three patients (21%) had ovarian involvement and 2 (14%) had vaginal involvement. Induction chemotherapy regimens were R‐CHOP in seven patients (50%), CHOP in three (21%) and other regimens in four (29%). Among 14 patients, 12 patients (86%) achieved a complete response and 2 (14%) experienced disease progression. Three patients (21%) showed relapse. Five patients (36%) died because of malignant lymphoma. The 3‐year overall survival rate was 57.9%. Soluble interleukin‐2 receptor levels > 5000 U/mL, anemia, a bulky mass and the presence of > 1 extranodal sites, B symptom at diagnosis were associated with a poor prognosis.ConclusionFemale genital lymphoma is very rare, and further study of more cases is warranted.
