Effect of working remotely on new professionals’ learning and adjustment during the first five weeks after professional entry
Authors: Karlsson Matilde , Zaar Mårs Olivia , Jenner Bo , Frögéli Elin 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
This study aimed to investigate the effect of working remotely on new professionals’ learning and adjustment. Organizational socialization is the process of learning and adjusting to a new professional role. Among new professionals working on-site, this learning and adjustment is indicated by a development of role clarity, task mastery and social acceptance. Less is known about the process when working remotely. This was recognized as a key organizational challenge following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Design/methodology/approach
In this study, with a longitudinal design with 242 graduates and weekly data collections for the first five weeks following professional entry in 2021, the authors compared the learning and adjustment among individuals working on-site, in hybrid or remotely using longitudinal analyses of mean response profiles.

Findings
The group-by-time interaction effects were not statistically significant (i.e. no differences were found in the adjustment of the new professionals of the three groups).

Originality/value
These results indicate that working remotely does not jeopardize the organizational socialization process. Furthermore, a marginally statistically significant result indicated that participants working only remotely experienced a greater development of task mastery over time: This suggests that remote work may even benefit learning and professional adjustment. Theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.

Authors: Bastos Carvalhais Barroso Marina , Martins Ricardo Silveira , Freitas Jonathan Simões 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
This study aims to demonstrate a rigorous approach to applying the Repertory Grid Technique (RGT) and Honey’s Content Analysis (HCA) to obtain and process qualitative data through structured interviews.

Design/methodology/approach
An illustrative case study using the OpenRepGrid package from the open-source software R facilitates a deeper understanding of these techniques. The study subjects were employees of a corporate charter company.

Findings
The RGT enables the identification of key attributes as perceived by interviewees regarding the phenomenon, whereas HCA clarifies how these attributes impact the desired analysis outcome. The presented case study identified constructs related to the client–supplier relationship and their impact on service performance from the provider’s perspective.

Research limitations/implications
This study illustrates the use of qualitative methods based on an interpretative naturalistic approach to rigorously and systematically capture interviewees’ perspectives.

Practical implications
The combination of RGT and HCA can be a valuable tool for management studies by allowing controlled researcher interference in empirical investigations. In addition, the data-driven selection of constructs by interviewees can lead to the emergence of novel theories.

Social implications
Using diverse methodologies enables researchers to address complex managerial challenges that often surpass the capabilities of conventional analysis methods.

Originality/value
The proposed methodology offers a robust understanding of phenomena from the interviewees’ perspectives. Consequently, this study highlights the potential of these techniques for theoretical and empirical research in the field of administration.
Research on safety control technology of high-speed railway combined test based on threatening event analysis
Authors: Bai Xin , Chen Jiaxu 
Published: October 2024

PurposeSafety management is a key point and poses a challenge in joint testing. To detect and address potential accidents' hidden dangers early, this paper conducts research on the safety control technology for high-speed railway joint tests by incorporating the concept of hazardous events.Design/methodology/approachAiming at ensuring the safety of high-speed railway combined inspections and trials, this paper starts from the dual prevention mechanism. It introduces the concept of threatening events, defines them and analyzes the differences between threatening events and railway accidents. The paper also proposes a cause model for threatening events in high-speed railway combined inspections and trials, based on three types of hazard sources. Furthermore, it conducts research on the control strategies for these threatening events.FindingsThe research on safety control technology for high-speed railway combined operation and testing, based on the analysis of threatened events, offers a new perspective for safety management in these operations. It also provides theoretical and practical support for the transition from passive prevention to active risk pre-control, which holds significant theoretical and practical value.Originality/valueThe innovation mainly includes the following three aspects: (1) Building on the traditional dual prevention mechanism, which includes risk hierarchical management and control as well as hidden danger investigation and management, a triple prevention mechanism is proposed. This new mechanism adds the management of threatening events as the third line of defense. The aim is to more comprehensively identify and address potential security risks, thereby enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of security management. (2) In this paper, the definition of a railway threatening event is clarified, and the causative model of a high-speed railway threatening event based on three kinds of danger sources is proposed. (3) This paper puts forward the control strategy of the high-speed railway combined operation and trial, which includes five key links: identification, reporting, analysis, rectification and feedback, which provides a new perspective for the safety management of the high-speed railway combined operation and trial and has important theoretical and application value.
Barriers to the deployment of PSS for a circular economy in housing: an institutional theory perspective
Authors: Ghafoor Soheila , Kocaturk Tuba , Hosseini M. Reza , Weiss Matthias 
Published: October 2024

PurposeThere is an urgent call for transitioning towards a circular economy (CE) in housing. Pivotal to this transition is implementing business models aligned with CE principles, such as the ones informed by the product-service system (PSS). However, incorporating the PSS into housing to realize a CE faces significant challenges within an industry characterized by systemic rigidity and institutional inertia. This study investigates the barriers faced in deploying the PSS and its CE potential in housing.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted 15 semi-structured interviews with stakeholders experienced in the deployment of PSS and CE in housing projects. Analysis used deductive coding, guided by institutional theory’s regulative, normative and cultural-cognitive pillars, followed by inductive coding development.FindingsTwelve key barriers emerged across three pillars, underlying the significance of not only regulative but also normative and cultural-cognitive barriers. The findings indicate that the current institutional environment impedes the establishment of legitimacy for the deployment of PSS and its CE potential in housing.Practical implicationsFollowing the findings, a diversified institutional support system enabled by the collaborative effort of the government, managing and financing actors and industry associations is required to overcome deployment barriers.Originality/valueThis study advances knowledge at the intersection of housing and circular business model innovation. It connects theory to practice by applying institutional theory to real-world barriers in deploying the PSS for a CE in housing and lays the groundwork for practical changes.
The credentialism trap: are IT certifications overrated?
Authors: Szandała Tomasz 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
This paper aims to explore whether certifications are sufficient for comprehensively evaluating the IT sector, focusing on DevOps, as this branch has the widest range of certifications. It examines the limitations of relying solely on certifications and highlights the gap between certified knowledge and practical competence in real-world settings.

Design/methodology/approach
The study includes a survey of 72 certified DevOps professionals with varying years of experience to gather insights on the impact of certifications. It also reviews existing literature on the origins, psychological aspects and role of certifications in recruitment within the IT sector.

Findings
The findings indicate that while certifications enhance technical knowledge and boost confidence among IT professionals, they do not consistently lead to career advancements and sometimes do not adequately assess practical skills and soft skills essential for DevOps roles. The survey revealed that only a minority experienced promotions postcertification, highlighting a disconnect between certifications and career progression.

Research limitations/implications
The survey sample was limited to 72 respondents, which may not represent the entire DevOps community. Future research with a more extensive and diverse sample could provide more generalisable results and deeper insights into the impact of certifications across different contexts.

Practical implications
Organisations should consider certifications as one component of a candidate’s qualifications, alongside practical experience and soft skills. Professionals are encouraged to pursue certifications for skill validation and knowledge enhancement but should integrate them with practical application and continuous learning to ensure effectiveness in DevOps environments.

Social implications
An overemphasis on certifications can contribute to a “credentialist” culture, potentially undervaluing practical skills and leading to stress and burnout among professionals. A balanced approach that values both certified knowledge and experiential learning can promote a healthier professional environment and improve team collaboration.

Originality/value
This paper provides a nuanced examination of the role of certifications in evaluating DevOps skills by combining survey data with a literature review. It offers original insights into the limitations of certifications and emphasises the importance of balancing them with practical experience and soft skills in the IT industry.
From mass marketing to personalized digital marketing in tourism: a 2050 horizon paper
Authors: Kozak Metin , Correia Antonia 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
The academic background of tourism marketing dates back to the 1960s. There had been a slight increase in its capacity until the early 1990s. However, since then, it has boomed, reaching thousands of scientific journal articles and tens of scientific books published only in English each year. Therefore, this study aims to present how tourism marketing has progressed academically within the past 60 years over four waves and how this progress may move forward as the next wave.

Design/methodology/approach
A bibliometric analysis grounds this study, which characterizes the past and present of tourism marketing research and anticipates the future. Content analysis, such as word clouds and social network analysis, was adopted to identify topic clusters and their connections. A total of 9,239 articles published between 1969 and 2024 were extracted from Scopus. Software packages such as VOSviewer were used to determine connections within topics.

Findings
The authors have assessed the findings broadly. Four waves were from the late 1960s to the first quarter of 2000. In spite of the limited size of papers at the early stage, the last wave saw a boom and a diversified number and category of subjects studied. In each wave, new subjects were added to broaden the picture.

Research limitations/implications
The discussion of findings is based only on those scientific papers published in English since 1969 but excludes the whole list of textbooks. Subsequent research should also consider all papers and textbooks released in different languages to have the broadest picture assessment worldwide.

Practical implications
The study conveys various suggestions for industry practitioners and policymakers to focus on carefully assessing trends in marketing tourism services and how these may be shaped shortly. This may help practitioners and policymakers redesign their services and marketing strategies in light of future developments.

Originality/value
This study continues a recent study published by Kozak (2023) that has been elaborated, particularly from the industry perspective. The current study examines the academic profile of all subjects investigated in the case of tourism marketing, but mainly in an academic sense. Accordingly, this paper outlines the facts and trends researchers may follow throughout the research frame published in the past six decades.
STRUGGLING FOR URBAN SPACE: Examining Social Distinctions between Long‐Term Residents and Newcomers in Warsaw's Districts
Authors: Orchowska Justyna 
Published: October 2024

AbstractThis article examines the perspectives of long‐term residents in response to the influx of newcomers in two neighbourhoods in Warsaw, Poland. It addresses the crucial, yet understudied, impact of spatial changes on the local population and the diverse ways in which residents negotiate this changing urban context. Drawing on Pierre Bourdieu's theoretical framework and its subsequent reinterpretations in the field of urban studies, the article explores the extent to which the narratives constructed by the long‐standing residents refer to categories of social class and correspond to their class position. The central question is whether spatial changes lead them to ‘internalize their inferiority’ (Savage, 2008: 161), or if they possess resources that can be mobilized to navigate conflicts arising from urban transitions. Through individual and group interviews with residents from two districts in Warsaw, this research sheds light on how the symbolic divisions between ‘us’ (long‐term residents) and ‘them’ (newcomers) are framed. It demonstrates how nativity is transformed into capital, providing the possibility for symbolic dominance. Consequently, it not only enriches understanding of the social distinctions that are made within evolving cities but also underscores the ongoing relevance of Bourdieu's theoretical framework for the study of urban space.
Sustainable development goals in emerging markets: Aligning the role of financial inclusion in promoting environmental quality of the Next‐11 economies
Authors: Usman Mahjabeen , Chughtai Sumayya , Khan Nasir 
Published: October 2024

AbstractPursuing sustainable development has emerged as a paramount global objective, with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serving as a guiding framework. Increasing environmental degradation is associated with increased greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, industrial waste, fossil fuel depletion, and loss of biodiversity. This study has analyzed the effect of financial inclusion on ecological sustainability while controlling the effect of financial development, energy consumption, economic growth, urbanization, and trade openness in the Next‐11 economies from 1995 to 2019. The study develops the financial inclusion index through principal components analysis by inculcating three demand‐side and three supply‐side factors of financial inclusion. To analyze the developed model, various first‐generation and second‐generation techniques are applied. The results of Westerlund co‐integration reveal significant long‐run co‐integration among the series. The long‐run elasticities are estimated through dynamic common correlated effect estimation and generalized method of moments where results reveal that FI helps to secure environmental sustainability by reducing the ecological footprint, hence it works on the SDG framework. Economic growth and financial development are found to be the root causes of increasing ecological footprint. So, it is the penetration of excessive credit, not the financial inclusivity which needs to be directed toward sustainability. It is suggested that the governments of Next‐11 countries should steer the capital toward sustainable usage and should continue facilitating financial services to curtail environmental degradation. Our findings have significant repercussions for Next‐11 countries, giving decision makers fresh perceptions of financial inclusion and development implications.
The effect of blended tube feeding compared to conventional formula on clinical outcomes in adults: A systematic review
Authors: Breik Lina , Barker Lisa , Bauer Judy , Davidson Zoe E. 
Published: October 2024

AbstractAimTo explore the effect of blended tube feeding compared to conventional formulas on nutritional status, quality of life, anthropometry, diarrhoea and tube blockages in adults receiving tube feeding.MethodsThe protocol was registered (PROSPERO CRD42022372443). Five databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Scopus, CENTRAL) were searched from commencement of database to 14th June 2023 to identify studies comparing blended tube feeding to conventional formulas in adults receiving tube feeding. Certainty assessment was conducted using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tools and the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations framework, and a narrative synthesis of results is provided.ResultsFrom 4227 studies screened, eight were included (total n = 763 patients, 9–215 patients). Three studies were hospital‐based and five were home‐based with duration from 8 days–8 months. Blended tube feeding and conventional formulas were nutritionally equivalent in only three studies; energy and protein concentration of formulas ranged from 1.7–7.1 kJ/mL and 21–68.5 g/L for the blended tube feeding groups, and 4.2–6.7 kJ/mL and 39–100 g/L for the conventional groups. No studies assessed nutrition status or quality of life using validated measures. Blended tube feeding was associated with a clinically relevant reduction in diarrhoea with a low level of certainty. For remaining outcomes, there were inconclusive findings and an overall very low certainty of evidence for each.ConclusionThe effect of blended tube feeding compared to conventional formulas on all outcomes remains uncertain. Blended tube feeding may reduce the incidence of diarrhoea. Future research using nutritionally equivalent comparisons and validated outcome measures is required.
Clan culture and digital transformation: Evidence from Chinese family firms
Authors: Liu Yadan , Zhang Shaowei , Chen Fengwen , Mu Yikang 
Published: October 2024

AbstractThis paper examines the impact of culture norms on the digital transformation of Chinese listed family firms. We show that clan culture is negatively associated with firms' digital transformation degree. Exploring possible mechanisms through the logic of restricted socioemotional wealth theory, we find that clan culture inhibits digital transformation by increasing firms' risk aversion to restricted SEW loss. Further, the negative impact is stronger when the family exhibits a higher tendency to avoid such risk, and will ultimately harm firm future performance and value. The results indicate that external informal institution is an important antecedent of firms' disruptive innovation strategy.
Carbon emissions and CEO pay
Authors: Amin Abu , Hossain Ashrafee , Ranasinghe Tharindra 
Published: October 2024

AbstractOur study examines the link between firms' carbon emissions and their compensation to CEOs and finds a positive association in line with the compensating wage differentials theory. We use Donald Trump's 2016 election win as an exogenous shock to identify a causal relationship. Ruling out managerial power as an alternative explanation, the relations are stronger when firms are better governed and are more likely to be aware of their carbon risk. Additionally, we present evidence that high carbon emissions increase CEOs' risk of job loss, reinforcing the presence of compensating wage differentials as the plausible explanation for the positive association.
Magnetocardiography in the Evaluation of Sudden Cardiac Death Risk: A Systematic Review
Authors: Lachlan Thomas , He Hejie , Kusano Kengo , Aiba Takeshi , Brisinda Donatella , Fenici Riccardo , Osman Faizel 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTSudden cardiac death (SCD) is responsible for 15%–20% of deaths globally/year, predominantly due to ventricular arrhythmias (VA) caused by vulnerable cardiac substrate. Identifying those at risk has proved difficult with several limitations of current methods. We evaluated the evidence for magnetocardiography (MCG) in predicting SCD events. We searched Embase/Medline databases for English language papers evaluating MCG in patients at risk of VA. A total of 119 papers were screened with 27 papers included for analysis (23 case–controlled, four cohort studies); study sizes varied (n = 12 to 158). Etiology was ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) in 22, dilated cardiomyopathy in 2, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy in 1 and mixed in 2. In patients with ICM there were consistent discriminatory features seen using time‐based and signal‐complexity measures that persisted when evaluating the independence of these parameters. Current flow analysis demonstrated promising discriminatory results in other etiologies. The features studied support the role of MCG in identifying substrate for VA, particularly in ICM.

AbstractBackgroundAortic regurgitation (AR) is a well‐known cause of impaired outcome in patients with centrifugal left ventricular assist devices (cfLVADs). The failure of the aortic valve (AV) to open at least intermittently is associated with cusp remodeling, commissural fusion, and ultimately developing AR.Our aim was to characterize patients in whom AV opening (AVO) was preserved 6 months after implantation and identify determinants related to it.Methods and ResultsWe conducted standardized echocardiography and collected clinical and laboratory tests at the outpatient clinic 6 months after implantation. We classified patients into those showing intermittently opening of the AV, every 2–3 beats, or in every cycle (AVO) and those whose AV was continuously closed (NAVO). From the 219 cfLVAD implanted in our center between March 2018 and January 2020, 156 subjects were alive and on the device after 6 months. In 2 of the reviewed echocardiograms, we could not evaluate the AV. 99 patients (64%) showed AVO compared to 55 (36%) with NAVO. The first presented higher mean arterial pressure (84 ± 10 vs. 77 ± 13 mm Hg, p = 0.002), larger LV end‐diastolic diameter (LVEDD 57.5 ± 12 vs. 52.7 ± 13 mm, p = 0.022), a better TAPSE (15 ± 4 vs. 13 ± 4 mm, p = 0.028), and less frequently significant AR than patients with NAVO (moderate/severe AR in 6% vs. in 20%, p = 0.042). In a multiple logistic regression, a lower NYHA Class, a larger LVEDD, and a better LV ejection fraction appeared as significant predictors of AVO. After a median follow‐up of 3.2 years, we found no significant impact on survival stratifying patients by AVO (log‐rank p = 0.53).ConclusionAVO was associated with better RV function, lower NYHA Class, and a lower rate of significant AR. This could indicate that AVO should be pursued in LVAD patients.
