Published: June 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to know the effect of mediation of work motivation on the influence of job design and organizational culture on human resource performance.

Design/methodology/approach
The design of the study is the detailed planning used as a study guide that leads to the purpose of the study. The unit of analysis of this research is the expert and skilled labor of construction service actors working in the national consulting company PT. Yodya Karya (Persero) at the central level and branches spread over 11 branches in Indonesian territory. Data analysis method used is path analysis and Sobel test to test the indirect effect (mediation effect).

Findings
Based on the results of the analysis, several things can be concluded such as: there is a significant direct influence of work design on the performance of human resources and work motivation; there is a significant direct influence of organizational culture on work motivation and human resource performance; and there is a significant direct influence of work motivation on human resource performance. There is an indirect influence of work design on the performance of human resources through work motivation mediation variables. Meanwhile, work motivation is not the influence of organizational culture on human resource performance.

Originality/value
The originality of this research lies in forming the mediator variable that is the work motivation on the causal relationship of two variables and adding new variables of work design on the effect on the human resource performance.

Authors: Andrade-Valbuena Nelson A. , Merigo Jose M. 
Published: June 2018

PurposeNew product development (NPD) is a noteworthy field that has attracted the attention of scholars for its relevance for firm success. Based on bibliometric indicators and spatial distance network analysis, the authors outline the general structure overview of NPD research through the last 40 years of scientific production; identify and categorize key articles, authors, journals, institutions, and countries related to NPD research; identify and map the research subareas that have mostly contributed to the construction of NPD intellectual structure. The paper aims to discuss these issues.Design/methodology/approachThe work uses the Web of Science Core Collection and the visualization of similarities viewer software. The analysis searches for all the documents connected to NPD available in the database. The graphical visualization maps the bibliographic data in terms of bibliographic coupling and co-citation.FindingsThe general NPD citation pattern evidences a construction of knowledge and learning, as evidenced in different subjects, such as biology or physics. Relevant contributions and contributors are highlighted as journals, articles, researchers, countries and institutions in overall NPD research and in its constituent subfields. Five subareas related to the NPD field based on journals and authors network are identified: marketing; operations and production; strategy; industrial engineering and operations; and management.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the NPD literature by offering a global perspective on the field by using bibliometric data graphical networks, providing insights about the influence of individual actors and its contributions to build bridges between the different subfields of research in NPD.

Published: June 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore possible factors impacting team performance in healthcare, by focusing on information exchange within and across hospital’s boundaries.

Design/methodology/approach
Through a web-survey and group interviews, the authors collected data on the communication networks of 31 members of four interdisciplinary healthcare teams involved in a system redesign initiative within a large US children’s hospital. The authors mapped their internal and external social networks based on management advice, technical support and knowledge dissemination within and across departments, studying interaction patterns that involved more than 700 actors. The authors then compared team performance and social network metrics such as degree, closeness and betweenness centrality, and computed cross ties and constraint levels for each team.

Findings
The results indicate that highly effective teams were more inwardly focused and less connected to outside members. Moreover, highly recognized teams communicated frequently but, overall, less intensely than the others.

Originality/value
Mapping knowledge flows and balancing internal focus and outward connectivity of interdisciplinary teams may help healthcare decision makers in their attempt to achieve high value for patients, families and employees.

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate breastfeeding and complementary feeding practices among children less than five years old and living in a rice surplus area in Demak Regency, Central Java.Design/methodology/approachFrom December 2014 to February 2015, a cross-sectional survey was carried out in Demak, which had a high proportion of undernourished children despite high rice production. In total, 384 mothers having children below five years old from farmer family background were interviewed using a structured questionnaire about sociodemographic parameters and child feeding practices. Food habits were also investigated among these women during two focus group discussions in two selected sub-districts.FindingsOnly 10.9 per cent of the children were exclusively breastfed for six months. About 60 per cent of the mothers practiced supplementary feeding in addition to breastfeeding and started complementary feeding too early. Duration of exclusive breastfeeding practice and child’s age at onset of complementary feeding were positively correlated (p= 0.04). The main reasons of supplementary feeding and too early introduction of complementary food were based on the elderly women’s opinions, and the very short duration of maternity leave for employed mothers. Mothers with a low education level had a higher chance of not reaching the optimum score of complementary feeding practices (p= 0.012).Originality/valueDespite a high level of food security in the project area, inadequate knowledge of young child feeding practices has contributed to sub-optimal breastfeeding practices. Higher educated women were more likely to follow optimal complementary feeding practices. Therefore, promotion of breastfeeding and complementary feeding practices targeting all key actors should be implemented in the study area to prevent undernutrition among infants.
Employees or Consumers? The role of competing identities in individuals’ evaluations of corporate reputation
Authors: Puncheva-Michelotti Petya , Vocino Andrea , Michelotti Marco , Gahan Peter 
Published: June 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the manners in which the employee and consumer identities interact to shape individuals perceptions of corporate reputations in well-established market economies (Australia and Italy) and transition countries (Bulgaria and Russia).Design/methodology/approachThe study utilises a within-subjects repeated measures design. The data were collected from 892 subjects in Australia, Italy, Bulgaria and Russia. The hypotheses were tested using structural equation modelling.FindingsIn established market economies, individuals tend to have very distinct identities as employees or consumers, and make different evaluations of corporate reputations depending on the chosen identity. In contrast, in transition countries, the consumer identity prevails over the employee identity and therefore job seekers tend to “follow” their consumer values in forming value judgements of companies.Originality/valueThe study makes two key contributions to current debates in employer branding and stakeholder management research. First, it contributes to theory and practice in employer branding by developing and testing a model of the interaction between consumer and employee identities in defining individuals’ perceptions of corporate reputations. Second, it contributes to stakeholder theory by investigating consumption and job-search from an integrated perspective rather than as separate and unrelated processes.
A strategic mismatch: organizational politics and creative propensity
Authors: Omer Fatima , Hassan Hamid 
Published: June 2018

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the relationship between negatively perceived organizational politics (NPOP) on creative propensity (CP), while also studying their interplay with organizational commitment (OC) and job satisfaction (JS).Design/methodology/approachA survey technique was used in three different IT-related companies in an emerging market. Customers also included foreign companies for two of the three. In terms of age, these companies were roughly a decade old or more. Respondents were employees who were involved in IT-related jobs. Instrument was used five-point Likert scale. Data analysis involved partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).FindingsJS appears to have a positive relationship with OC. Both factors have been shown to have a positive relationship with CP. NPOP appears to have a negative relationship with not only CP but also JS and OC.Originality/valueThis research aids in bridging a gap in research and contributes to literature with respect to the relationship among CP with JS, OC and NPOP. There is a need for greater research with respect to the relationship of CP with JS, OC and particularly with NPOP between these factors. This research would aid in bridging the gap by investigating relationships among these factors. Globalization and international business may increase the importance of creativity for IT-related as well as other companies. Businesses in emerging markets may require creativity for growth, survival and catching up to companies in developed markets or for competitiveness. With the prevalence of politics in organizations, it may be of strategic value for businesses in emerging markets to be able to calibrate these factors to increase their potential for creativity.

Published: June 2018

Background/aimParent proxy reports are well used in occupational therapy, yet historically parent report instruments of motor skill have not required parents to report on the same motor skills that their children are assessed on. The aim was to examine how well a parent report of children's fundamental movement skill (FMS) was associated with children's actual FMS.MethodA sample of 100 children aged 7–9 years from Melbourne, Australia, were recruited. Parents/guardians completed proxy report (parent version of the ‘Pictorial Scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence’ (PMSC)) and children's actual motor skills were assessed (‘Test of Gross Motor Development’ 3rd edition (TGMD‐3)). Data were first analysed using Pearson's correlation coefficients and then hierarchical linear stepwise regression was conducted with actual skill as the outcome variable in each model.ResultsThe PMSC‐Parent (r = 0.36, P < 0.001) was moderately associated with children's actual skill. After age and sex adjustment, the PMSC‐Parent explained 11.4% of variance in total skills. Parent report of their children's object control scores (PMSC object control scale) was significantly associated with children's actual object control (B = 0.36, P < 0.001) and explained 11.3% of the variance. Parent report of children's locomotion scores (PMSC locomotion scale) was associated with children's actual locomotor skills (B = 0.27, P = 0.007) and explained 6.2% of the variance.ConclusionParents are able to report to some degree on their children's FMS competency, in particular, their object control competence. Parent proxy report of FMS may help inform occupational therapists to identify children with low FMS competency to develop interventions targeting FMS.
Increases in placental nitric oxide, but not nitric oxide‐mediated relaxation, underlie the improvement in placental efficiency and antihypertensive effects of hydrogen sulphide donor in hypertensive pregnancy

Published: June 2018

SummaryDysregulation of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) producing enzymes has been related to hypertensive pregnancy, and H2S donor, sodium hydrosulphide (NaHS) exerts antihypertensive effects, modulates angiogenic factors production and acts as an antioxidant. Moreover, reduction in nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability is related to hypertensive pregnancy and H2S may interact withNO, modulating its production. We aimed to investigate the NaHSeffects in hypertension‐in‐pregnancy and also in feto‐placental parameters. Female Wistar rats (200‐250 g) were mated and desoxycorticosterone acetate injections followed by replacement of water by 0.9% saline solution were used to induce hypertensive pregnancy. Rats were divided into four groups: normal pregnant (Norm‐Preg), pregnant + NaHS(Preg+NaHS), hypertensive pregnant (HTN‐Preg) andHTN‐Preg+NaHS. Systolic blood pressure was increased inHTN‐Preg and this increase was blunted inHTN‐Preg+NaHS. Fetal and placental weights were decreased inHTN‐Preg animals, while fetal growth restriction was improved inHTN‐Preg+NaHS. Placental weight was lower inHTN‐Preg+NaHSthan inHTN‐Preg; however, placental efficiency was re‐established inHTN‐Preg+NaHSrats. We observed that a partial contribution of placentalNO, but not changes in anti‐angiogenic factors may mediate the increases in placental efficiency inHTN‐Preg+NaHS.HTN‐Preg presented thoracic aorta hyperreactivity to phenylephrine while NaHStreatment blunted this hyperreactivity, which seems not to be related toNO‐mediated relaxation induced by acetylcholine. Therefore, changes in vascular responsiveness promoted by NaHStreatment may underlie the beneficial effects in systolic blood pressure and feto‐placental parameters in our study.

Published: June 2018

AbstractOlive fruit is a significant and promising source of potential bioactive compounds such as oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol. Oleuropein is the ester of elenolic acid and 3,4‐dihydroxyphenyl ethanol (HT). It is the main glycoside in olives, the degradation of which results in the formation of hydroxytyrosol in olive oil. Both plays a significant role in the reduction of coronary heart diseases and a certain type of cancers. Both olive oil phenols have an effective role counter to cell proliferation, cell growth, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. They down regulate the expression of BCL‐2 and COX‐2 proteins, and reduced DNA damage. Hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein inhibited the multiple stages in colon carcinogenesis; initiation, promotion, and metastasis. They also provide protection against various human cancers including colorectal, skin, breast, thyroid, digestive, lung, brain, blood, and cervical. This review article discusses the anticancer perspectives and mechanisms of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol in cell cultures and animal and human studies.
‘Wonderful Objects’ and ‘Disagreeable Operations’: Encountering the Leverian Museum in Writing for Children, 1800‐05
Authors: De Ritter Richard 
Published: June 2018

AbstractThe Leverian Museum was one of the eighteenth century's most important natural history collections. While its significance has been discussed from a range of perspectives, little attention has been paid to the museum's representation in children's literature. This article examines two such works: The School‐Room Party (1800) and Visits to the Leverian Museum (c.1805). Driven by pedagogic agendas, these texts suggest that the museum could challenge, as well as inform, its visitors. Focusing on the affective and ethical responses that the museum elicits, this article proposes that these works complicate and enrich current understandings of the period's writing for children.
Warming temperatures will likely induce higher premium rates and government outlays for the U.S. crop insurance program
Authors: Tack Jesse , Coble Keith , Barnett Barry 
Published: June 2018

AbstractLikely climate change impacts include damages to agricultural production resulting from increased exposure to extreme heat. Considerable uncertainty remains regarding impacts on crop insurance programs. We utilize a panel of U.S. corn yield data to predict the effect of warming temperatures on the mean and variance of yields, as well as crop insurance premium rates and producer subsidies. While we focus on corn, we demonstrate that the subsidy impacts are likely to carry over to other major program crops. We find that warming decreases mean yields and increases yield risk on average, which results in higher premium rates. Under a 1°C warming scenario, we find that premium rates at the 90% coverage level will increase by 39% on average; however, there is considerable statistical uncertainty around this average as the 95% confidence interval spans from 22% to 61%. We also find evidence of extensive cross‐sectional differences as the county‐level rate impacts range from a 10% reduction to a 63% increase. Results indicate that exposure to extreme heat and changes in the coefficient of variation are large drivers of the impacts. Under the 1°C warming scenario, we find that annual subsidy payments for the crop insurance program could increase by as much as $1.5 billion, representing a 22% increase relative to current levels. This estimate increases to 3.7 billion (57%) under a 2°C warming scenario. Our results correspond to a very specific counterfactual: the marginal effect of warming temperatures under current technology, production, and crop insurance enrollments. These impacts are shown to be smaller than the forecasted impacts under a commonly used end‐of‐century general circulation model for even the most optimistic CO2 emissions projection.
Staging of necrotising enterocolitis by Bell's criteria is supported by a statistical pattern analysis of clinical and radiological variables

Published: June 2018

AbstractAimNecrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is often staged according to Bell's 1978 system, but today's NEC cases are more immature than the ones that were used to develop Bell's stages. Our aim was to explore the clinical and radiographic findings of contemporary cases of NEC and spontaneous intestinal perforation.MethodsWe coded the clinical records of all cases of NEC stages I–III and spontaneous intestinal perforation born in 2006–2015 at the tertiary department of neonatology at Rigshospitalet, Denmark, for 16 clinical and radiographic symptoms and signs at disease onset and at climax. These variables were explored using principal component analysis, which can detect patterns in large datasets.ResultsWe reviewed 640 clinical records and included 158 cases of NEC or spontaneous intestinal perforation. When we entered the clinical and radiographic signs at disease climax, the cases were roughly grouped according to Bell's stages, except for a small group of NEC III cases, who were grouped with the cases of spontaneous intestinal perforation.ConclusionAn analysis of the pattern of clinical and radiographic findings in a 2006–2015 population of NEC cases supported Bell's 1978 staging system. However, the separation between NEC and spontaneous intestinal perforation still poses a difficult task.
THE IDIOSYNCRATIC PATTERN OF RUSSIAN CORPORATE DIVIDEND POLICY DURING ITS FORMATIVE ERA
Authors: VANTEEVA Nadia , HICKSON Charles 
Published: June 2018

ABSTRACTIn general, the dividend payout pattern for Russian corporations during their formative period from 1998 to 2006 was seemingly independent of company earnings, size, growth opportunities and capital structure, as such firm policies appear not to conform to any of the main extant dividend payout theories. The only exception we find is that of utility firms, which were inclined to pay consistent dividends. Utility firms tended to be partly owned by the state and were subject to price regulation. Consequently, they may have had limited investment prospects. Our findings suggest that dividend payout policies in non‐market economies may be driven by non‐traditional determinants, such as the state's overall industrial strategy.
Phelan‐McDermid syndrome, bipolar disorder and treatment with lithium
Authors: Rowland Tobias , Pathania Rani , Roy Ashok 
Published: June 2018

Accessible summary

Phelan‐McDermid syndrome is an uncommon genetic cause of intellectual disability, but should still be tested for.

People with Phelan‐McDermid syndrome may also suffer from bipolar disorder, and doctors should consider this diagnosis.

We discuss two patients with both Phelan‐McDermid Syndrome and bipolar disorder.

Both patients improved when using a medication called lithium

Doctors should consider using lithium in patients with Phelan‐McDermid syndrome and evidence of bipolar disorder.

AbstractBackgroundPhelan‐McDermid syndrome is caused by a deletion at chromosome 22q13.3, and results in a phenotype characterised by intellectual disability, features of autism, physical and mental health conditions. It is becoming increasingly recognised that bipolar disorder represents part of this phenotype.Materials and methodsThis case study describes 2 patients with Phelan‐McDermid syndrome presenting with bipolar mania at inpatient unit for adults with intellectual disability. Both patients presented with severe disturbance of their behaviour, at times exhibiting aggression, disinhibition and hypersexuality.ResultsDespite treatment with a number of atypical antipsychotics and anticonvulsant mood stabilising agents, both patients showed the greatest improvement when started on lithium, and were successfully treated with this medication.ConclusionsThis adds further support to the growing evidence of bipolar disorder contributing to the phenotype of Phelan‐McDermid syndrome, and clinicians should have a low threshold for considering the use of lithium in these patients.
