The mental health literacy of British community pharmacists
Authors: Morral Kim , Morral Jordi 
Published: March 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the mental health literacy (MHL) of British community pharmacists.

Design/methodology/approach
A survey instrument was sent by facsimile to a random sample of community pharmacists in England, Scotland and Wales. The survey instrument contained items concerning recognition of the symptoms of depression, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, the helpfulness of a range of interventions, mental health stigma and the degree of comfort providing pharmaceutical care to people with mental health problems.

Findings
Among community pharmacists (n=329) symptom recognition was high for depression but lower for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Pharmacists showed a preference for evidence-based interventions and support for psychological therapies and physical activity for all three mental health problems. Pharmacists expressed less comfort providing pharmacy services to people with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and depression than cardiovascular disease. Mental health stigma was higher for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder than depression, with many pharmacists holding misperceptions about schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Practical implications
The study findings indicate the need for enhanced mental health content in the undergraduate pharmacy curriculum which should challenge misperceptions of mental illness.

Originality/value
This is the first study to investigate the MHL of British community pharmacists.
The additive manufacturing innovation: a range of implications
Authors: Steenhuis Harm-Jan , Pretorius Leon 
Published: March 2017

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to gain insight into whether additive manufacturing (AM) represents incremental, radical, disruptive innovation or an industrial revolution and its implications.Design/methodology/approachThis study applies a desk research strategy. Data were collected through a variety of industry sources as well as academic publications.FindingsIt was found that AM represents different innovations in different settings, while it represents incremental innovation in one industry, it has led to radical changes in other industries. There are also indications that it has a disruptive nature and some of the developments appear to be of the industrial revolutionary type, i.e. they cause fundamental shifts in society. Some explanation for the observed differences can come from different performance objectives.Research limitations/implicationsThe spread of AM has been limited due to initial intellectual property protection. That means that while illustrations and examples were found for the different types of innovations, the level in which AM will ultimately penetrate manufacturing industries and society overall is not (yet) known. This calls for continued research for instance to study, in-depth, the adoption characteristics of AM in very specific settings.Practical implicationsManufacturing is undergoing many changes as a consequence of the AM innovation. Many manufacturing industries have already been impacted through incremental changes as well as radical changes to entire industry dynamics. Manufacturers are advised to carefully monitor the continuous innovations in the technological capabilities of AM and their competitive and strategic consequences for adoption decisions.Social implicationsAM has an impact on many aspects of society because it affects many industries and enables household manufacturing. It has also affected education, i.e. the current generation of students in terms of skill requirements, and leads to legal difficulties in terms of intellectual property.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the understanding of the AM innovation and the widespread implications for different manufacturing industries and society at large.
The pattern of technological accumulation
Authors: Bai Xu , Liu Yun , Wang Gangbo , Wen Changcun 
Published: March 2017

Purpose
The national technology accumulation pattern in three-dimensional (3D) printing technology field has not yet been studied until now. This paper is to fill this gap. To be specific, the purpose of this paper is to answer the following two questions. What is the comparative advantage of 3D printing technology among countries? What is the relative impact of 3D printing technology in the worldwide?

Design/methodology/approach
Patent bibliometric analysis was used for analyzing and collecting data to find critical information of 3D printing. Some indicators (RTA, FSGI, RII, CV) have been applied in analyzing the national patterns of technology accumulation in developed and developing countries by using patent statistics.

Findings
First, the USA, Japan, and Germany are the leading countries in 3D printing technology, while the technology accumulation patterns of these countries are rather different. Second, Israel and Italy have good performance in the fast-growing technology sub-fields. Third, although the number of patents owned by developing countries, such as China and Russia, is not few, the citations received by these patents are low.

Research limitations/implications
A limitation of this study is that technological development can be reflected by many indicators and patent statistic is merely one reflection form. This study just analyzes the 3D printing technology development from the perspective of patent statistic, the authors would like to continue the comprehensive analysis with the other data indicators in a future study.

Originality/value
The national technology accumulation pattern in 3D printing technology field has not yet been studied until now. This paper is to fill this gap.
Gender diversity, financial expertise and its effects on accounting quality
Authors: García-Sánchez Isabel-Maria , Martínez-Ferrero Jennifer , García-Meca Emma 
Published: March 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether gender diversity on board and financial expertise on audit committee affect accounting conservatism in banking sector. Additionally, the authors focus on the effects of board characteristics on bank earnings quality and examine their effects on earnings persistence.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors use a large sample of 159 banks from nine different countries from the period 2004-2010. The authors study whether the differences in the timeliness of earnings to bad news and earnings quality across governance structures of banks are driven by differences across investor protection and bank regulation levels in banks.

Findings
The findings confirm the monitoring role of both female and financial experts, noting a positive effect of them on accounting conservatism and earnings quality in banks. According to the institutional characteristics, the results suggest the complementary role of banking regulation and investor protection levels in these effects, noting that in contexts of higher regulatory and greater investor protection environments, gender diversity and financial expertise on boards have more influence on the conservatism and earnings quality of banks.

Originality/value
The authors contribute to both the accounting quality literature and the corporate governance literature by identifying board characteristics that are associated with higher conservatism and quality of earnings in banks around the world. In addition, this study also contributes to the ethics literature by highlighting the benefits of gender diversity and financial expertise in upholding the integrity of financial reporting. Moreover, this paper adds to prior literature about board of directors and accounting quality by identifying additional complementary factors – bank regulation and investor protection – and by focusing on a specific industry, the banking industry.
Perceived organizational support, participation in decision making, and perceived insider status for contract workers
Authors: Ding Cherng G. , Shen Chih-Kang 
Published: March 2017

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the roles of perceived organizational support (POS) and work status (regular worker/contract worker) in moderating the relationship between participation in decision making (PDM) and perceived insider status (PIS).Design/methodology/approachData were collected with survey questionnaires that were administered to a sample of 369 employees from a case company in Taiwan, for which both regular and contract workers constitute the main workforce. After confirming the reliability and validity of the measurements, the authors conducted hierarchical regression analysis to examine the hypothesized relationships.FindingsThe mean PIS for regular workers is smaller than that for contract workers in the case company. For the group of contract workers, the positive influence of PDM on PIS is greater for those with lower POS than for those with higher POS. However, the negative moderating effect of POS does not exist for the group of regular workers.Originality/valueThis study adds to the existing literature by showing that contract workers, classified as external workers, can experience PIS, and that POS negatively moderates the positive relationship between PDM and PIS for contract workers. The managerial implications are discussed.
Corporate social responsibility and employee organizational citizenship behavior
Authors: Gao Yongqiang , He Wei 
Published: March 2017

PurposeAn increasing number of studies have demonstrated a positive effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on employee organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), but little attention has been paid to the mechanisms and boundary conditions underlying this effect. The purpose of this paper is to propose a trickle-down model and examine the mediating role of supervisor ethical leadership and the moderating role of perceived organizational distributive justice in the CSR-OCB relationship.Design/methodology/approachTo test the arguments, the authors collected field data in four companies located in a central city of China. Through a multi-wave data collection design, a total of 187 employees reported their perceptions toward firms’ CSR and organizational justice at Time 1, and reported their direct supervisors’ ethical leadership behaviors, and their own OCBs at Time 2 (four weeks later).FindingsEmpirical findings demonstrated that CSR had a positive effect on employee OCB, as mediated by supervisors’ ethical leadership. In addition, this mediation effect was found to be moderated by perceived organizational distributive justice such that the mediation relationship was stronger when perceived organizational distributive justice was lower than when it was higher.Originality/valueThe present study makes three major contributions. First, it contributes to the CSR literature by revealing the underlying mechanism of ethical leadership through which CSR will lead to increased employee OCB in the workplace. Second, the moderation findings of the study add a new piece of empirical evidence suggesting the boundary condition of organizational distributive justice affecting the positive effect of CSR on employee OCB. Finally, the trickle-down theoretical model demonstrates the pivotal role of leadership in transforming CSR into positive employee outcomes, providing valuable insights into future research that examines why CSR motivates in-organization employees at work.
Strategic agility-driven business model renewal: the case of an SME
Authors: Arbussa Anna , Bikfalvi Andrea , Marquès Pilar 
Published: March 2017

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is twofold: to connect strategic agility and business model (BM) innovation, and to explore how capabilities underlying strategic agility fit the SME context.

Design/methodology/approach
Qualitative in approach, the paper develops a longitudinal, in-depth, single case study focussing on how BM renewal occurs in the dynamic and increasingly important sector of temporary work agencies.

Findings
The findings suggest a partial fit of the existing strategic agility framework for SMEs. Two of the proposed meta-capabilities (leadership unity and resource fluidity) seem inherent to SMEs because they apply easily to this context, although they need to be downscaled. One meta-capability (strategic sensitivity) is less natural and therefore more critical for an SME. An additional meta-capability (resourcefulness) arises as very important for SMEs to be able to overcome some of their size-caused limitations.

Research limitations/implications
The contribution is limited by using a single case study from a specific sector and should be considered as exploratory and theory-grounding research in the field of SMEs’ strategic agility and BM renewal.

Originality/value
The originality of this paper is that it looks at the SME context in an industry with intensive change and dynamism, which is ideal for illustrating the objective. The authors contribute a model of strategic agility for SMEs.
Leading well pays off: mediating effects and multi-group analysis of strategic performance
Authors: Chen Qinglan , Eriksson Tor , Giustiniano Luca 
Published: March 2017

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to reveal the mediating role of leadership style on the relationship between strategy and company performance.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses empirical data gathered from top managers in a stratified sample of 476 Danish private businesses.FindingsThe results show the mediating effects of leadership styles on strategic performance. In particular, both supportive and directive leadership styles partially mediate the effect of the differentiation strategy, while the supportive leadership style displays a stronger mediating effect than the directive one. The multi-group analysis shows the moderating impact of the manager’s tenure, managerial level, strategy clarity, industry and business environment risk.Research limitations/implicationsThe study is limited by its nature and the specificity of the national context in which it was conducted. In this vein, the evidence collected here can be enlarged and complemented by having access to panel data or the generalization of some results to neighboring or other developed countries.Practical implicationsSeveral implications of the findings for managerial practices are discussed.Originality/valueThere are very few discussions of the mediating effect of leadership style between strategy and performance. The paper fills the gap by examining the role of leadership style planning on the relationship between those two variables in Denmark.
The effect of holding company affiliation on bank risk and the 2008 financial crisis
Authors: Dandapani Krishnan , Lawrence Edward R. , Patterson Fernando M. 
Published: March 2017

Purpose
The organizational form of financial institutions is related to their level of risk, leverage, liquidity and capitalization. High level of risk and leverage and lower levels of liquidity and capitalization are considered to be the root causes of the 2008 financial crisis. The purpose of this paper is to investigate if banks affiliated to holding company structure contributed more to the root causes of crisis than unaffiliated banks.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper isolates the effect of holding company association by restricting the sample to one-bank holding companies and individual banks. A comparative analysis of independent and holding company-affiliated banks is performed. Univariate analysis and multivariate regressions are used to compare the risk, leverage, liquidity and capitalization of affiliated and independent banks.

Findings
The paper finds that holding company affiliation is linked to several root causes of the 2008 financial crisis. Specifically, holding company affiliation results in higher levels of home mortgage loans underwritten and underperforming, higher leverage, lower liquidity and lower capitalization for the subsidiary bank.

Practical implications
The paper demonstrates that affiliated banks use their higher leveraged positions to engage in riskier home mortgage lending, sacrificing both liquidity and capital adequacy. These findings can help policy makers to focus on the group of banks that are part of holding company affiliation and implement such policies and regulations so as to avoid any re-occurrence of financial crisis.

Originality/value
This paper is the first to link the structural differences in banks to the root causes of financial crisis and to isolate the effect of holding company affiliation through sample selection. The paper will be valued to other researchers who try to isolate the effect of holding company affiliation and those studying the causes of the financial crisis of 2008.
Short selling regulation, return volatility and market volatility in the Athens Exchange
Authors: Mertzanis Charilaos 
Published: March 2017

PurposeThe relationship between short selling, market volatility and liquidity remains an object of intensive research. However, empirical evidence is yet to provide a conclusive elucidation of this relationship by examining aspects of market fragmentation in the form of different market settings, different timing and different stocks under coverage, among others. This paper aims to contribute to the debate by investigating the impact of short selling on market volatility and liquidity in the Athens Exchange (ATHEX) under three different periods of short sales restrictions.Design/methodology/approachTwo hypotheses are tested using econometric methodologies (co-integration and Granger-causality tools).FindingsThe empirical results indicate that when short selling is allowed, aggregate stock returns are in the short-term more volatile, but the liquidity of the market is not significantly affected. This might be the result of significant imbalances between supply and demand of stock caused by short-selling restrictions, leading to market price fluctuations.Research limitations/implicationsThe analysis of empirical evidence needs further expansion and association with institutional firm-level and country-level elements to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of short selling on market volatility and liquidity.Practical implicationsStock market regulation involving short-selling restrictions have different implications according to extent and degree of stringency of the restrictions as well as the market on which they are imposed. That is especially important for the assessment of the market impact of the recent European Union regulation on short selling that has been imposed upon all EU member-States alike.Social implicationsFinancial regulation policy must balance the benefits and costs for retail investors of imposing short-selling restrictions on stock market trading.Originality/valueFirst-time empirical evidence is provided on the impact of short selling regulations on market volatility and liquidity of ATHEX highlighting the potential effectiveness of regulation policy.
Surgical technique for ‘ping pong’ fractures: Elevation of depressed skull fractures in neonates with no burr hole
Authors: Chan David Yuen‐Chung , Chan Danny Tat‐Ming , Zhu Cannon Xian‐Lun , Poon Wai‐Sang 
Published: March 2017

AimDepressed skull fracture is a neurosurgical emergency. Surgical treatment usually requires a sizeable scalp incision and burr hole with or without craniotomy for reduction. However, depressed skull fracture in neonates, or ‘ping pong’ fracture, is an uncommon clinical condition, occurring in approximately 4–10 in 100 000 live births. No standard treatment is established for depressed skull fracture in neonates. With a minimally‐invasive technique, a good surgical outcome can be achieved with minimal blood loss and no bone loss.Patients and MethodsA full‐term, neonatal girl presented with spontaneous ‘ping pong’ fracture after a smooth, normal vaginal delivery. The anterior fontanelle was full. Computed tomography of the brain showed right parietal depressed skull fracture with sulci effacement, obliteration of the lateral ventricle and midline shift. Skull fracture reduction was performed with the bone elevation technique via access to the coronal suture without a burr hole or craniotomy.ResultsA small stab wound incision was made over the right coronal suture at the lateral edge of the anterior fontanelle. This site was in close proximity to the anterior margin of the depressed skull fracture. With access to the coronal suture and dissection in the epidural space, reduction was achieved intraoperatively by elevation of the inner table of the skull bone. Blood loss was minimal, and there was no bone loss. The clinical outcome was excellent at 1‐week, 3‐months’, 1‐year and 18‐months’ follow up.ConclusionFor neonatal depressed skull fractures with clinical and radiographic evidence of a mass effect requiring surgical intervention, elevation with no burr hole is a good technique for bone reduction with minimal blood loss and no bone loss.
E‐Beam Irradiation for Improving the Microbiological Quality of Smoked Duck Meat with Minimum Effects on Physicochemical Properties During Storage
Authors: An Kyung‐A , Arshad Muhammad Sajid , Jo Yunhee , Chung Namhyeok , Kwon Joong‐Ho 
Published: March 2017

AbstractThis study was performed to evaluate the effect of different doses (0, 1.5, 3, and 4.5 kGy) of e‐beam irradiation on the quality parameters (pH, Hunter's parameter, and heme pigment) and stability qualifiers (peroxide value [POV], thiobarbituric acid reactive substances[TBARSs], and total volatile basic nitrogen [TVBN]) of smoked duck meat during 40 d of storage under vacuum packaging at 4 °C. The initial populations of total bacteria (7.81 log CFU/g) and coliforms (5.68 log CFU/g) were reduced by approximately 2 to 5 log cycles with respect to irradiation doses. The results showed that pH, myoglobin, met‐myoglobin,L*,a*, andb*showed significant differences with respect to different doses and storage intervals;a*andb*did not vary significantly because of storage. Higher pH was found in samples treated with 4.5 kGy at 40 d, while the minimum was observed in nonirradiated samples at day 0 of storage. Higher POV (2.31 ± 0.03 meq peroxide/kg) and TBARS (5.24 ± 0.03 mg MDA/kg) values were found in 4.5 kGy‐treated smoked meat at 40 d and the lowest was reported in 0 kGy‐treated meat at initiation of storage (0 d). However, irradiation suppressed TVBN during storage and higher TVBN (7.09 ± 0.32 mg/100 mL) was found in duck meat treated with 0 kGy at 40 d. The electronic nose (e‐nose) effectively distinguished flavor profiles during the different storage intervals. The results showed that different sensory attributes did not vary significantly with respect to the dose of irradiation. We conclude that low dose of e‐beam irradiation and vacuum packaging is beneficial for safety and shelf life extension without affecting the sensory characteristics of smoked duck meat.
