Female Entrepreneurs Targeting Women: Strategic Redirection Under Scientific Decision-Making
Authors: Gagliardi Luisa , Novelli Elena 
Published: November 2024

This paper explores whether and to what extent a scientific approach to decision-making can be a useful tool for helping entrepreneurs overcome limitations in the commercial exploitation of their idea, particularly when these limitations stem from their status as users of the products or services. Using data from a variety of sources, including three randomized control trials and LinkedIn data, and focusing on female entrepreneurs who develop a value proposition targeting female consumers as a case of user entrepreneurs, this paper shows that exposure to a training that encourages entrepreneurs to develop theoretical maps about their business propositions and validate them with evidence prompts more radical pivots on their initial ideas compared with entrepreneurs with a value proposition that does not target women explicitly. In turn, treated female entrepreneurs with a female-targeted value proposition who pivot radically show better performance in launching and sustaining their ventures compared with those who have not pivoted.

Theory-Driven Strategic Management Decisions
Authors: Camuffo Arnaldo , Gambardella Alfonso , Pignataro Andrea 
Published: November 2024

This paper studies strategic decisions under uncertainty for which past data are not available. It provides microfoundations of the theory-based view of the firm by showing that the strategic problem starts with the selection of theories rather than choosing actions and that theories are selected through experiments. The value of experimenting with theories increases with the number of theories and with their uncertainty. Moreover, uncertainty makes theories superadditive—that is, experimenting with a more uncertain theory increases the benefits of experimenting with other more uncertain theories. The paper also shows that decision makers should experiment with more “surprising” theories because in this case experiments are more informative and enable more learning. A leading example helps to illustrate our concepts throughout the paper. Funding: A. Camuffo and A.

Authors: Dugdale Evan M. , Uvodich Mason E. , Pagnano Mark W. , Berry Daniel J. , Abdel Matthew P. , Bedard Nicholas A. 
Published: November 2024

AimsThe prevalence of obesity is increasing substantially around the world. Elevated BMI increases the risk of complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA). We sought to evaluate trends in BMI and complication rates of obese patients undergoing primary THA over the last 30 years.MethodsThrough our institutional total joint registry, we identified 15,455 primary THAs performed for osteoarthritis from 1990 to 2019. Patients were categorized according to the World Health Organization (WHO) obesity classification and groups were trended over time. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis controlling for confounders was used to investigate the association between year of surgery and two-year risk of any reoperation, any revision, dislocation, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), venous thromboembolism (VTE), and periprosthetic fracture. Regression was stratified by three separate groups: non-obese; WHO Class I and Class II (BMI 30 to 39 kg/m2); and WHO Class III patients (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2).ResultsThere was a significant increase in the proportion of all obesity classes from 1990 to 2019, and the BMI values within each WHO class significantly increased over time. Risk of any reoperation did not change over time among non-obese or WHO Class I/II patients, but increased for WHO Class III patients (hazard ratio (HR) 1.04; p = 0.044). Risk of dislocation decreased over time for non-obese (HR 0.96; p < 0.001) and WHO Class I/II (HR 0.96; p = 0.002) patients, but did not change over time for WHO Class III (HR 0.94; p = 0.073) patients. Risks of any revision and PJI did not change over time for any group.ConclusionThe proportion of patients undergoing THA who are obese has increased dramatically at our institution between 1990 and 2019. Despite BMI values increasing within all WHO classes over time, two-year complication risks have remained stable or decreased in WHO Class I/II patients. However, continued efforts will be required to mitigate risks in the heaviest WHO Class III patients.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2024;106-B(11):1223–1230.
Perioperative mortality in low-, middle-, and high-income countries: Protocol for a multi-level meta-regression analysis
Authors: McIntyre Kevin J. , Choi Yun-Hee , John-Baptiste Ava , Lizotte Daniel J. , Chan Eunice Y. S. , Moodie Jessica , Stranges Saverio , Martin Janet 
Published: November 2024

Background
Surgery is an indispensable component of a functional healthcare system. To date there is limited information regarding how many people die during the perioperative period globally. This study describes a protocol for a systematic review and multilevel meta-regression to evaluate time trends regarding the odds of perioperative mortality among adults undergoing a bellwether surgical procedure while accounting for higher order clustering at the national level.

Methods
Published studies reporting the number of perioperative deaths from bellwether surgical procedures among adults will be identified from MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, LILACS and Global Index Medicus. The primary outcome will be the rate of perioperative mortality across time and the secondary outcome will be investigating cause of death over time as a proportion of overall perioperative mortality. Two reviewers will independently conduct full text screening and extract the data. Disagreements will first be resolved via consensus. If consensus cannot be reached a third reviewer will be included to arbitrate. Due to human resource limitations, a risk of bias appraisal will not be conducted. From the included studies a multilevel meta-regression will be constructed to synthesize the results. This model will conceptualize patients as nested in studies which are in turn nested within countries while taking into account potential confounding variables at all levels.

Discussion
The systematic review and multilevel meta-regression that will be conducted based on this protocol will provide synthesized global evidence regarding the trends of perioperative mortality. This eventual study may help policymakers and other key stakeholders with benchmarking surgical safety initiatives as well as identify key gaps in our current understanding of global perioperative mortality.

The implementation of an integrated workplace health promotion program in Dutch organizations ‐ A mixed methods process evaluation
Authors: Smit Denise J. M. , van Oostrom Sandra H. , Engels Josephine A. , Mooren-van der Meer Suzan , Proper Karin I. 
Published: November 2024

Objective
To gain insight into 1) the degree of implementation of an integrated workplace health promotion program (WHPP) 2) the perceptions of employers and employees regarding an integrated WHPP and 3) the contextual factors that hindered or enhanced implementation.

Methods
Data were collected by means of questionnaires, interviews among 19 employees, supervisors and HR-professionals, monitoring charts and observations at 6–10 months after the start of the implementation of the integrated WHPP. To evaluate the implementation process, ten process indicators from the evaluation frameworks of Nielsen & Randall and Wierenga were assessed. Descriptive analyses were performed for the process indicators as measured by questionnaires, monitoring charts and observations. Interviews with employers and employees were recorded, transcribed and then coded by two researchers independently by means of thematic coding.

Results
The results cover the following topics: implemented activities, the working group, engagement of employees, the role of management and policy and organizational preconditions. Although the criteria of the WHPP were not completely met, various activities were implemented in all participating organizations. Working groups consisting of Human Resources professionals, supervisors and employees, who selected and implemented activities, were composed within each organization. 22% of the employees did not feel involved in the implementation process. The absence of organizational policies regarding WHP hampered implementation. Organizations had the intention to continue with the integrated WHPP, which requires sufficient time and budget.

Conclusions
The implementation of the integrated WHPP appeared to be challenging and complex. Working groups indicated that they made the first important steps in integrating WHP in their organization and had the intention to continue with the implementation. However, to increase the impact, employers and employees should have the opportunity to implement and participate in WHP. Hence, organizational policies regarding WHP and active support of higher management are expected to be essential.
Effects of Tai Chi on anxiety and theta oscillation power in college students during the COVID-19 pandemic: A randomized controlled trial
Authors: Wang Min , Chi Shuxun , Wang Xingze , Wang Tongling 
Published: November 2024

Background
College students, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, face substantial psychological stress. This study investigates the impact of Tai Chi (TC) practice on anxiety levels and theta oscillatory power activation characteristics among college students, aiming to provide empirical evidence for their psychological well-being.

Methods
In this randomized controlled trial with 45 healthy college students, brainwave activity and changes in anxiety levels were measured. A 2 (TC group vs control group)×2 (pre-test vs post-test) factorial design was analyzed to explore TC’s regulatory effects on brainwave activity and anxiety.

Results
Following 12 weeks of TC practice, the TC group exhibited a significant decrease in state-trait anxiety differences (-6.14±14.33), state anxiety differences (-3.45±7.57), and trait anxiety differences (-2.68±7.43), contrasting with an increase in the control group. Moreover, contrasting with a decrease in the control group, TC group demonstrated significance increased theta oscillatory power in C3, C4, F4, P3, T7, and T8, and a significant negative correlations were observed between state anxiety and F4-θ (r = -0.31, p = 0.04), T7-θ (r = -0.43, p = 0.01), and T8-θ (r = -0.30, p = 0.05).

Conclusion
The positive influence of TC on college students’ psychological well-being and brain function is evident, leading to reduced anxiety levels and increased theta oscillatory activity. While encouraging further research to delve into the mechanisms of TC on anxiety and theta brainwave characteristics, the study recommends actively promoting TC practice among college students to enhance mental health and address post-pandemic psychological challenges.
Push and pull factors influencing preference for traditional healing by jaundiced patients in Bangladesh
Authors: Gazi Md. Ismail , Hamid Hema Binte , Chowdhury A. B. M. Alauddin 
Published: November 2024

Background
Jaundice is a significant health issue in Bangladesh. Many patients choose traditional medicine (TM) over conventional medicine (CM) for treating jaundice. This study aimed to identify and analyze the push and pull factors influencing the preferences of jaundiced patients for traditional healing methods in Bangladesh.

Methods
This cross-sectional study used a mixed-methods approach. Two focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted with 16 participants (8 per group) who had experience of using traditional medicine for jaundice. In-depth interviews with five traditional healers were carried out to gather qualitative insights from the healers’ perspectives. Quantitative data were collected from 400 jaundiced patients at a tertiary-level hospital using a semi-structured questionnaire. Chi-square tests and binary logistic regression were used to analyze associations between sociodemographic factors, push-pull factors, and treatment preferences.

Results
The study found that 62% of participants favored TM for jaundice treatment. The scalp and hand cleansing rituals (46%), herbal remedies (37%), garlanding (23%), and use of talismans or amulets (21%) were the most common practices. Qualitative analysis revealed five push factors, eight pull factors, four intervening obstacles, and five personal factors that influenced jaundiced patients’ preference for TM. Patients also emphasized the significance of spiritual and emotional aspects in their decision-making process when choosing TM. Significant associations were observed between treatment preference and age group (p = 0.002), residence (p = 0.018), education level (p<0.001), and religion (p = 0.015). Individuals aged 50 years and above (70.9%), rural residents (68%), and those with no or primary education (72%) were more likely to opt for TM. Key push factors towards TM included high costs of CM (OR: 6.80, 95% CI: 2.10–22.04) and perceived ineffectiveness of CM. Strong pull factors were accessibility of TM (OR: 11.18, 95% CI: 4.03–31.00), perceived effectiveness of TM (OR: 3.45, 95% CI: 1.05–11.37), personal testimonials (OR: 7.55, 95% CI: 2.75–20.69), lower costs of TM (OR: 10.48, 95% CI: 4.30–25.54) and lack of information about conventional treatments for jaundice (OR: 13.82, 95% CI: 4.62–41.33).

Conclusion
The study reveals that both push and pull factors influence jaundiced patients in Bangladesh to choose TM over CM, with decisions shaped by personal, socioeconomic, and geographical factors.
How Do Personal Attributes Shape AI Dependency in Chinese Higher Education Context? Insights from Needs Frustration Perspective
Authors: Zhong Wenjun , Luo Jianghua , Lyu Ya 
Published: November 2024

Objective
The adoption of Generative AI in education presents both opportunities and challenges, particularly regarding its potential to foster student dependency. However, the psychological drivers of this dependency remain unclear. This study addresses this gap by applying the Interaction of Person-Affect-Cognition-Execution (I-PACE) model and Basic Psychological Needs (BPN) theory to explore how specific personality traits—neuroticism, self-critical perfectionism, and impulsivity—contribute to AI dependency through needs frustration, negative academic emotions, and reinforced performance beliefs.

Method
Data were collected from 958 university students (Mage = 21.67) across various disciplines. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships among the variables.

Results
Neuroticism, self-critical perfectionism, and impulsivity were found to be significantly associated with increase needs frustration and negative academic emotions, which in turn reinforced students’ positive beliefs about performance of AI tools, deepening their dependency. The study also uncovered complex serial mediation effects, highlighting intricate psychological pathways that drive maladaptive AI use.

Conclusions
This research provides a critical insight into the interplay between personality traits and technology use, shedding light on the nuanced ways in which individual differences influence dependency on generative AI. The findings offer practical strategies for educators to promote balanced AI use and support student well-being in educational settings.
Do You Even Lift, Bro?
Authors: Kelly Casey Ryan 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This essay examines how pro-weight-lifting rhetoric on the Reddit forum r/TheRedPill is illustrative of how far-right networks prepare white men's bodies to participate in white supremacy. I argue that recent figurations of the muscled white cisgender male body unite nationalistic commitments with neoliberal subjectification in a rhetoric of bodily capacitation: discourses that resuscitate debilitated subjects back into the realm of able-bodied citizenship but in ways that align muscularity with the belief structure of white supremacy.
O ser humano e sua existência segundo Kierkeggard
Authors: Santos Antonio Macedo , Minatto Davi Dagostim 
Published: November 2024

Resumo: O ser humano e sua existência é o tema central da obra de Kierkegaard. Os conceitos trabalhados pelo filósofo, como desespero, angústia, fé, cristianismo, etc. orbitam esse eixo. Para uma compreensão do tema, portanto, pode-se avançar por muitas vias. Aqui, optamos pela via dos conceitos de relação e dos estádios da existência. O objetivo do texto é fornecer um instrumento de aproximação aos estudos kierkegaardianos, pautando-se numa revisão bibliográfica com o que há de mais atual e clássico em termos de traduções e comentários à obra do filósofo. As leituras apontam que para Kierkegaard, o ser humano compreende a si mesmo a partir da relação consigo e com Deus, passando pelos estádios da existência estético, ético e religioso até chegar à categoria de Indivíduo, onde ele se entende como alguém singular em meio à multidão. Esse itinerário não é mecânico ou linear, mas cheio de idas e voltas, na tarefa humana de existir.

The human being and his existence according to Kierkegaard
Sintesi: L’essere umano e sua esistenza sono le tematiche centrali dell’opera di Kierkegaard. I concetti adoperati dal filosofo, tali como disperanza, angustia, fede, cristianesimo, ecc orbitano loro. Per una comprensione del tema, quindi, si può intraprendere diverse vie. Qui scegliamo la via dei conceti di relazione e degli estadi della esistenza. L’obbiettivo del testo é fornire uno strumento per l’iniziale aprossimazione agli studi kierkegaardiani. Partiamo da una revisione bibliografica di ciò che c’è di classico e attuale nei commenti e traduzioni sul filosofo. Le letture indicano che nel pensiero di Kierkegaard, l’essere umano comprende sè stesso a partire dalla sua relazione con sè stesso e con Dio, passando per gli stadi dell’esistenza: estetico, etico e religioso, finchè arrivi alla categoria di individualità, nella quale si capisci come singolo nella moltitudine. Questo itinerario non é lineare o mecanico, ma pieno di passi in avanti e indietro nella tarefa umana di esistere.

Authentische Fassung oder editorisches Konstrukt?
Authors: Kaulen Heinrich 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The notes On the concept of history (1940) are considered Walter Benjamin’s philosophical legacy. They were first published in a private print (1942) by the ‚Institut für Sozialforschung‘ (Institute of Social Research, Los Angeles). The narrative of the origin of this publication, which is still widely used today, is based on the assumption, that this edition represents an unknown and lost original by Benjamin himself. In contrast, this article attempts to show that the printed version is very close to the existing typescript T2. It was probably created by combining this typescript with some reflections from the oldest manuscript MHA. The important first print with appendix A and B therefore does not represent an authentic version or a simple ‘transcription’, but in all probability an editorial construction by the first editors. This gives reason to reflect on the fundamental tension between preservation and appropriation in the history of scholarly editing, not only with regard to Walter Benjamin.
Edition von frühdigitalem Text: Ein Problemaufriss
Authors: Roeder Torsten 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Early born-digital texts from the 1980s and 1990s are increasingly becoming subjects of cultural transmission. Their scholarly editing requires textual criticism on multiple levels. These texts often exist in multimedia, performative environments, and their ephemeral surfaces necessitate the inclusion of underlying logical structures in textual analysis. Both aspects could be incorporated into synoptic forms of scholarly editing in the future. This is illustrated through the example of disk magazines, a type of multimedia electronic periodical from the home computer era.
Zur Rezeption von (historisch-)kritischen Ausgaben in der aktuellen germanistischen Forschung
Authors: Knüchel Johannes 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
This article aims to re-examine a question originally posed by Rüdiger Nutt-Kofoth in 2015 (see note 1): “How are (historical-)critical editions of German speaking authors (from the early modern period onwards) used for literary interpretation in recent German literary studies?” Nutt-Kofoth gave an answer by collecting data from research articles in the traditional periodicals Zeitschrift für deutsche Philologie, Euphorion and Deutsche Vierteljahrsschrift für Literaturwissenschaft und Geistesgeschichte. He was able to draw up a statistic with rather disillusioning results. Several years later, his statement that little is known about the user group of (historical) critical editions still holds true. A new gathering of data from the same periodicals (with a slightly different approach due to the smaller amount of examined articles) shows new and different results, therefore making the time-span of 2000–2013 comparable with that one of 2014–2020. The aim of this article is to raise awareness of the use of editions in German studies and at the same time to draw attention to the problem of data collection.
