Predicting user continuance intention towards M-pesa in Kenya
Authors: Osah Olam , Kyobe Michael 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to integrate established information systems theories (post-acceptance model (PAM) and task-technology fit (TTF)) to model and test determinants of user continuance intention within Kenya toward a proliferated mobile money service called M-pesa.

Design/methodology/approach
A positivist method informed the design of the study. A survey instrument was developed and administered amongst M-pesa users in Kenya, yielding 618 responses. Selection of users followed a systematic sampling technique. Afterwards, structural equation modelling (SEM)-partial least squares (“SEM-PLS”) was used to examine the measurement and structural model of the study.

Findings
The results revealed an unexpected finding that TTF’s utilization has a stronger path coefficient than PAM’s satisfaction in predicting user continuance intention toward M-pesa. This is contrary to most extant literature reports that satisfaction is the dominant predictor of usage continuance. Also, unexpected, the results revealed a lack of significant influence between the PAM’s post-usage usefulness (PUU) and satisfaction. Again, the relationship between PUU and satisfaction in most extant studies is reported as significant.

Originality/value
The study suggests that saliency order of determinants of user continuance intention could differ within the developing world and developed world.
International acquisitions by Polish MNEs. Value creation or destruction?
Authors: Nowiński Witold 
Published: February 2017

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to determine the performance implications of cross-border acquisitions by Polish multinationals. Additionally, the study considers specific factors affecting acquisition performance, such as acquirer’s prior cross-border acquisition experience and the type of market (advanced versus emerging) in which the target is located.Design/methodology/approachThis study is based on a sample of 104 cross-border acquisition events in which a Polish public company, quoted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange acted as an acquiring party. The event study method was applied to determine the impact of acquisition announcements on the share price of the acquiring companies for 3-, 4- and 5-day event windows. The proposed hypotheses were additionally verified through hierarchical regression.FindingsThe research shows that a typical cross-border acquisition carried out by a Polish multinational ends in creating value. While the impact of prior cross-border acquisition experience is only significant for the shortest event window, the choice of targets from emerging markets significantly improves acquisition outcomes for all of the event windows examined.Originality/valueThe study is the first project on such a scale to focus on cross-border acquisitions by multinationals from Central and Eastern Europe to have used event study methodology. It has shown that acquirers from mid-range emerging markets, such as Poland, tend to benefit more from leveraging their ability to function in underdeveloped and dynamic institutional settings if they acquire companies operating in other emerging markets rather than those based in more developed economies.
Sharing information now vs later
Authors: Wu Laurie , Shen Han , Li Mimi , Deng Qian (Claire) 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
This study aims to address a novel information sharing phenomenon among many hospitality consumers, that is, sharing information during, rather than weeks after, a hospitality consumption experience. Specifically, this study tests if including a temporal contiguity cue in a review can significantly enhance the purchase intention of other consumers toward the reviewed business.

Design/methodology/approach
A 2 (personal sense of power) × 2 (temporal contiguity cue: manipulated to be absent vs present) quasi-experiment was conducted in this research. Floodlight analysis with the Johnson–Neyman technique was used to test the interaction effect. Hayes’ PROCESS procedure was used to test the mediation effects.

Findings
The study found that, for powerless consumers, temporal contiguity cue can effectively enhance the perceived trustworthiness of the review and purchase intention toward the reviewed business. Conversely, for powerful consumers, temporal contiguity cue can significantly reduce the perceived trustworthiness of the review and purchase intention toward the business. Mediation test further revealed evidence for the underlying psychological mechanism for these effects.

Originality/value
Revealing the mixed effects of a novel factor, temporal contiguity cue, on consumer responses toward online hospitality reviews, the current research contributes to the expanding stream of theoretical and managerial knowledge on online review management in social media platforms.
Consumers’ impulsive buying behavior of restaurant products in social commerce
Authors: Chung Namho , Song Hyo Geun , Lee Hyunae 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
First, this paper aims to investigate the impact of impulsiveness on two types of shopping value (e.g. utilitarian and hedonic value) and the urge to buy restaurant products and services impulsively in social commerce environments. Second, the study assesses the impact of situational factors (e.g. scarcity and serendipity) on individuals’ shopping values.

Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected from 332 participants. By using PLS-graph 3.0, structural equation modeling was conducted. Furthermore, a hierarchical regression model was conducted for testing the mediating and moderating effects.

Findings
The results indicate that impulsiveness is a strong predictor for two types of shopping value (hedonic and utilitarian) and the urge to buy impulsively. While the hedonic shopping value was found to have a significant influence on the urge to buy impulsively, utilitarian value was not. Scarcity was moderator in the relationships between impulsiveness and both types of shopping value, whereas serendipity was found to moderate only the relationship between impulsiveness and the utilitarian shopping value.

Practical implications
The findings show that the marketing managers and application developers of social commerce should place their focus on scarcity and serendipity to stimulate consumers in having a hedonic shopping value so to have an urge to buy impulsively.

Originality/value
First, although most previous studies focused on only rational or planned consumption, this study focused on irrational and unplanned consumption as well. Second, the authors assessed the role of situational factors (scarcity and serendipity) occurring in social commerce and asserted that these factors moderate the relationship between consumers’ shopping values and their urge to buy impulsively.
The auditor as consigliere in family firm
Authors: Collin Sven-Olof Yrjö , Ahlberg Jenny , Berg Karin , Broberg Pernilla , Karlsson Amelie 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to develop and test a concept of auditor as consigliere in family firms, that captures additional functions to monitoring, those of advice, mediating, and conveying.

Design/methodology/approach
The concept is tested through a survey conducted on 309 Swedish auditors.

Findings
The data indicate that the consigliere role is generally not emphasized, indicating that auditors primarily perform the monitoring role of the audit. However, the authors do find indications of the auditor performing the consigliere role, through performing the advisory and mediating functions and, to a smaller degree, the conveying function.

Research limitations/implications
The survey is limited in response rate and in separating governance situations from consigliere functions.

Practical implications
With reservation for professional independence, the auditor as consigliere could be part of the governance of the family firm, but should be trained for this activity.

Social implications
Regulators should pay attention to the consigliere role when, for example, stipulating compulsory rotation of auditors.

Originality/value
The paper shows that the auditor is more than a monitor in family firms. The consigliere role, even if not at all dominating, has to be considered, at least in family firms.
An investigation of the impact of financial literacy, risk attitude, and saving motives on the attenuation of mutual fund investors’ disposition bias
Authors: Jonsson Sara , Söderberg Inga-Lill , Wilhelmsson Mats 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of financial literacy, risk attitude, and saving motives on the attenuation of mutual fund investors’ disposition bias. Specifically, the authors focus on individual characteristics explaining the investors’ propensity to sell shares in a poorly performing mutual fund.

Design/methodology/approach
The study relies on survey data collected from 1,564 Swedish households in 2013. The authors test the hypotheses considering three different portfolio compositions and portfolio performances. Each composition corresponds to a dependent variable and a separate model which are estimated using ordinal logistic regression.

Findings
The authors find that different forms of financial literacy affect attenuation of the disposition effect. Specifically, the authors find that knowledge about mutual funds and knowledge about current market conditions affect the attenuation of the disposition effect, whereas the authors find no support for the effect of “technical financial knowledge” (e.g. the ability to calculate compound interest rates). The authors also find no support for the effects of risk attitude and saving motives on the attenuation of the disposition bias.

Originality/value
The findings suggest a need for a more fine-grained conceptualization of the financial literacy concept and its effect on investors’ disposition bias. Since an important implication of the findings is that financial literacy could potentially help people overcome behavioral bias, the study provides insights for policymakers as well as into the discussion on the design of consumer education programs.
Intellectual structure of research in business ethics
Authors: Xiao Huilin , Wang Yanling , Li Weifeng , Ma Zhenzhong 
Published: February 2017

PurposeThe study aims to map the intellectual structure of business ethics studies by analyzing 17,246 citations of 225 papers published inBusiness Ethics Quarterly(BEQ) in the year between 2005 and 2014. Specifically, the purpose of the study is to describe the current state ofBEQ, identify the most influential journals and works, identify the key themes of business ethics studies during 2005-2014 and, at the same time, report the changes in themes by making a comparison between two time periods – 2005-2009 and 2010-2014.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the study presents the information of the authors, institutions and countries that contribute toBEQwith a statistical analysis. Second, the study identifies the most cited journals and works inBEQduring 2005-2014 with a citation analysis. Third, the study identifies the key research themes in business ethics studies with a co-citation analysis. With the help of factor and social network analysis (NA), the study groups the research themes and maps their links.FindingsFirst, the statistical results show that many well-known researchers from famous US institutions publishing inBEQ. Second, the citation analysis results show that quite a few journals become mature gradually in business ethics domain. Besides, most of the influential works are normative and theoretical. Third, the co-citation results indicate that “stakeholder management” and “corporate social responsibility” (CSR) are two main themes in business ethics studies in the past decade. Specifically, “stakeholder management” attracts the most research interests in both two sub-time periods. In addition, compared with the pure studies on CSR during 2005-2009, increasing researchers are keen on the theme of “political CSR under globalization” in the second five years. Meanwhile, other focus like “society, state and business ethics” earns a certain degree of attention in the time window 2005-2009. And “accountability in MNCs” and “political philosophy” are the new concerns in the year between 2010 and 2014.Originality/valueThe study confirmsBEQ’s leadership role in business ethics domain. And, it further proves that business ethics has evolved as an independent discipline. It also helps the researchers to have a concise knowledge of the main contents and key points of business ethics research. Methodologically, co-citation analysis combined with factor and NA provides clear results and visualized figures which can be understood easily by the researchers and practitioners.
On the association between perceived overqualification and adaptive behavior
Authors: Wu Chia-Huei , Tian Amy Wei , Luksyte Aleksandra , Spitzmueller Christiane 
Published: February 2017

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to offer an autonomous motivation perspective to explore the relationship between perceived overqualification and adaptive work behavior and examine job autonomy as a factor that may moderate the association.Design/methodology/approachThe hypotheses were tested in two culturally, demographically, and functionally diverse samples: sample 1 was based on North American community college employees (n=215); sample 2 was based on full-time workers, employed in a Chinese state-owned enterprise specializing in shipping (n=148).FindingsIn study 1, perceived overqualification was negatively related to self-rated adaptive behavior. A follow-up study 2 extended these findings by demonstrating that perceived overqualification was negatively related to supervisor-rated adaptive work behavior when job autonomy was low, rather than high.Research limitations/implicationsThe results of this research offer an autonomous motivation perspective to explain why perceived overqualification relates to adaptive behavior and suggests a job design approach to encourage adaptive behaviors of people who feel overqualified – a sizable segment of the current workforce.Originality/valueThis is one of the first studies to explore adaptive behavior of workers who feel overqualified – an outcome that has not been examined in this domain. The findings further point out what can be done to encourage adaptive behaviors among overqualified employees.
The secret to client-supplier innovation cooperation that lasts
Authors: Servajean-Hilst Romaric 
Published: February 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to provide some keys to understand and manage the dynamic of client-supplier innovation cooperation.

Design/methodology/approach
The results presented in this paper are based on a mixed methods approach that combines interviews with practitioners, quantitative inquiry on 160 client-supplier innovation cooperations and 18-month ethnography within an Innovation-Purchasing department.

Findings
At the first stage of a relationship, when trust and familiarity are low, unstructured organization has to be avoided and elaborated partnership privileged. Later in a relationship, the power balance increases, so do trust and familiarity. In case of a power balance in large favor of the client, elaborated partnership presents the best performance in the first phases of the innovation project, and the unstructured organization allows better performance in the phases around market launch. If the power balance is favorable to the supplier, the exclusive partnership organization gives the best results for the relationship. Later, when trust and familiarity attain the highest levels, and when the power is balanced within the couple, elaborated partnership is best suited from design to industrialization phases. In upstream phases, project-type organizations can be substituted to exclusive partnership: both allow the relationship to reach the highest scores.

Originality/value
The paper offers levers for managing innovation cooperation at macro and micro levels, taking into account the impact of the client-supplier relationship.
Resident consultant obstetrician presence on the labour ward versus other models of consultant cover: a systematic review of intrapartum outcomes
Authors: Henderson J , Kurinczuk JJ , Knight M 
Published: February 2017

BackgroundSeveral key policy documents have advocated 24‐hour consultant obstetrician presence on the labour ward as a means of improving the safety of birth. However, it is unclear what published evidence exists comparing the outcomes of intrapartum care with 24‐hour consultant labour ward presence and other models of consultant cover.ObjectivesTo collate and critically appraise evidence of the effect of continuous resident consultant obstetrician cover on the labour ward on outcomes of intrapartum care compared with other models of consultant cover.Search strategyStudies were included which quantitatively compared intrapartum outcomes for women and babies where continuous resident consultant obstetric cover was provided with other models of consultant cover.Selection criteriaQuantitative studies within healthcare systems with mixed obstetric‐midwifery models of care.Data collection and analysisTwo researchers independently screened titles and full‐text publications, extracted data and assessed the quality of included studies. Meta‐analysis was performed using REVIEW MANAGER 5.3.Main resultsAbout 1508 publications were screened resulting in two papers, three conference abstracts and one letter being included. All were single‐site time‐period comparison studies. The quality of studies overall was poor with significant risk of bias. The only significant finding in meta‐analysis related to instrumental deliveries, which occurred more frequently when there was on‐call consultant cover (unadjusted risk ratio 1.14; 95% CI 1.04–1.24).ConclusionNo reliable evidence of the effects of 24‐hour resident consultant presence on the labour ward on intrapartum outcomes was identified.Tweetable abstractMore robust research is needed to assess intrapartum outcomes with resident consultant labour ward presence.

Published: February 2017

ObjectiveWhile complementary medicine use among ED paediatric patients is common, the use of alternative therapies (ATs; physical or spiritual therapies) is unknown. We aimed to determine the 12 month period prevalence and nature of AT use among paediatric patients and parent perceptions of AT use.MethodsWe undertook a cross‐sectional survey of a convenience sample of parents of paediatric patients in three EDs in metropolitan Melbourne, Australia (January–June, 2015). Parents were invited to complete a validated, anonymous, self‐administered questionnaire. The main outcomes were AT use by the patient and parent perceptions of ATs.ResultsA total of 806 parents were enrolled. In the previous 12 months, 393 (48.8%) patients had received at least one AT. There were no gender or ethnicity differences between AT users and non‐users. AT use was more common among older patients (P < 0.05). Patients with chronic illness tended to use more ATs (P = 0.12). A total of 1091 courses of 43 different ATs had been provided. The most common were massage (16% of patients), chiropractic therapy (9.8%), relaxation (7.2%), meditation (6.2%) and aromatherapy (6.1%). ATs were generally used for musculoskeletal problems, health maintenance, stress and anxiety. Parents who arranged the ATs were significantly more likely to report that ATs are safe, prevent and treat illness, assist prescription medicines and offer a more holistic approach to healthcare (P < 0.001).Conclusion
AT use is common among paediatric ED patients. Parents who arrange AT have differing perceptions of AT usefulness and safety from those who do not.
Effects of Spatial Distribution of Prairie Vegetation in an Agricultural Landscape on Curve Number Values
Authors: Dziubanski David J. , Franz Kristie J. , Helmers Matthew J. 
Published: February 2017

AbstractThe curve number (CN) method is used to calculate runoff in many hydrologic models, including the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). The CN method does not account for the spatial distribution of land cover types, an important factor controlling runoff patterns. The objective of this study was to empirically derive CN values that reflect the strategic placement of native prairie vegetation (NPV) within row crop agricultural landscapes. CNs were derived using precipitation and runoff data from a seven‐year period for 14 small watersheds in Iowa. The watersheds were planted with varying amounts of NPV located in different watershed positions. The least squares and asymptotic least squares methods (LSM) were used to derive CNs using an initial abstraction coefficient (λ) of 0.2 and 0.05. The CNs were verified using leave‐one‐out cross‐validation and adjustment for antecedent moisture conditions (AMC) was tested. The asymptotic method produced CN values for watersheds with NPV treatment that were 8.9 and 14.7% lower than watersheds with 100% row crop at λ = 0.2 and λ = 0.05, respectively. The derived CNs produced Nash‐Sutcliffe efficiency values ranging from 0.4 to 0.7 during validation. Our analyses show the CNs verified best for the asymptotic LSM, when using λ of 0.05 and adjusting for AMC. Further, comparison of derived CNs against an area weighted CN indicated that the placement of vegetation does impact the CN value. Editor's note: This paper is part of the featured series on SWAT Applications for Emerging Hydrologic and Water Quality Challenges. See the February 2017 issue for the introduction and background to the series.
Referral patterns of general dental practitioners for bone grafting and implant placement
Authors: Gupta B , Shadbolt B , Hyam D 
Published: February 2017

AbstractBackgroundDental implant rehabilitation is a well‐established procedure often conducted in the general dental practise setting. The outcomes for implant placement are reliable when the recipient site is favourable. The goal of this study was to assess the accuracy with which general dental practitioners (GDP) assess the bone volume available for implant placement and their referral patterns for implant sites, which may require bone grafting.MethodsFifty‐three GDP were surveyed and asked to assess five different scenarios and cone‐beam scans for difficulty (0, ‘no difficulty’; 5, ‘the most difficult’), and bone grafting requirements (‘yes’/‘no’ and ‘who to perform’), prior to implant placement.ResultsThe GDP assessment of difficulty for the cases was: no graft required, 1.88; aesthetic zone involvement, 3.25; vertical deficiency, 2.8; sinus lift required, 3.68; and horizontal deficiency, 4.4. GDP seemed to have some difficulty identifying which cases required a bone graft, occasionally grafting a site with sufficient bone (12.5%), or not grafting a site with insufficient bone (45–75%).ConclusionsThese results show that GDP are accurate in assessing the difficulty of an implant case and conservative when it comes to attempting these complex cases. GDP are less confident when it comes to recognizing cases that require bone grafting, and what options are available.
