Multiple and intersectional discrimination and mental health of migrant populations in Portugal after the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Alarcão Violeta , Candeias Pedro , Stefanovska-Petkovska Miodraga , Pintassilgo Sónia , Machado Fernando Luís 
Published: July 2024

Purpose
A growing body of evidence suggests that experiences of discrimination may affect physical and mental health through multiple pathways. This paper aims to characterize the extent of everyday perceived discrimination among Brazilian and Cape Verdean immigrant adults in Portugal, to identify its forms and analyze its association with mental health.

Design/methodology/approach
This study draws on data from the EQUALS4COVID19 (Equity in health in times of pandemic) project that implemented a cross-sectional survey combining online and face-to-face questionnaires for data collection between February and November 2022.

Findings
Women were less likely than men to report no discrimination experiences and more likely to report combined bases of discrimination. While Brazilian women were more likely than Cape Verdean counterparts to report gender and nationality-based discrimination, Cape Verdean women and men were more likely to report experiencing race-based discrimination. Gender (being identified as a woman) and length of stay in Portugal were the main predictors of depression, while resilience and perceived social support were protective factors. Participants with higher levels of resilience showed a significantly diminished association between perceived discrimination and depressive symptoms.

Practical implications
This study highlights the need for further research on the interlocking influences of gender, race, nationality and other structures of power, on health and illness to increase our understanding of what would help meet the specific needs of migrants’ mental health and improve equitable health care.

Originality/value
The findings on the multiple and intersectional discrimination perceived by the Brazilian and Cape Verdean populations in Portugal illustrated the ways mental health can be affected by social structures, such as gender and ethnic hierarchies, and can be used to inform the relevance to design and implement programs on combating individual and institutional discrimination and improving the rights of all people.
Individual differences in risk attitude among managers: a multilevel approach
Authors: Ceschi Andrea , Dusi Matilde , Ferrara Michela , Tommasi Francesco , Sartori Riccardo 
Published: July 2024

Purpose
The way in which managers differ when confronted with risky options or when evaluating different alternatives constitutes a fundamental part of organizational risk management. This study aims to investigate how managerial risk-taking attitudes (i.e. ethical and financial risk-taking as a trade-off between benefit and riskiness) change over time and based on gender.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors conducted a cross-sectional study on a sample of Italian executives and measured their perceptions of risk-taking, risk perception and risk-benefit, all referring to the company they worked for in the ethical and financial domain. The study also collected demographic data to gather information on age and gender. The authors analyzed data collected using multilevel analysis.

Findings
The results show that perceived benefits are the main drivers of risk-taking attitudes in both domains. Age and gender are not significant direct predictors of risk, but interactions with domains reveal insightful patterns.

Originality/value
Overall, this study highlights the need to assess the whole pattern of relationships emerging from the range of situational variables characterizing a specific population. Concerning the organizational context, it means addressing the role of organizational variables in influencing risk-taking so as to determine the extent to which organizational policies are indeed effective in fostering efficient organizational risk management.

Authors: Bharath Sindu , Nagesh P. , Nanjundeswaraswamy T.S. 
Published: July 2024

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to validate the factors influencing perception of digital buyers (PDB), risk factors of digital buying (RFDB) and webrooming intention (WI) and also to examine the mediating role of WI between PDB and RFDB.Design/methodology/approachThe antecedents of variables were validated using exploratory data analysis. The association between PDB and RFDB was established using structural equation modelling. Furthermore, the mediating role of WI is examined using the Sobel test.FindingsThe antecedents of PDB (digitization practice, credence preference, brand awareness and consciousness, product features, utilitarian behaviour, price and discount factors), RFDB (performance risk, socio-psychological risk, financial risk, aesthetic risk, time and return risk and perceived quality risk) and WI (perceived ease of online search, usefulness of online search, need for touch, socialization and webrooming attitude) were identified. PDB significantly and positively influences RFDB. There is a direct relationship between PDB and WI. WI and RFDB are positively correlated. WI partially mediates between PDB and RFDB.Practical implicationsThe research outcome helps the multi-channel retailers to identify the digital platforms to find greater opportunity for customer engagement.Originality/valueThe study augments the body of literature on WI by exploring the interplay of PDB, RFDB and WI, which will help retail personnel to strategize operational practices.
Unlocking the nexus: exploring the mediating and moderating dynamics of risk factors in economic literacy for organizational performance - A systematic review
Authors: Bamiro Nurudeen Babatunde , Zakariya Zainizam , Raimi Lukman , Thomas Yoburaj 
Published: July 2024

PurposeRecognizing economic literacy as a vital form of intellectual capital provides essential tools to mitigate the adverse impact of risk factors on business organizations' performance. This recognition serves as a strong rationale for prioritizing economic literacy as a strategic asset in navigating the complexities of risk factors for sustained organizational performance. To bridge this gap, this study examines the role of risk factors in the economic literacy of an organization and how they affect organizational performance.Design/methodology/approachThis exploratory study employed a qualitative research method, utilizing a systematic review with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach to identify gaps. A comprehensive search across databases was conducted using keywords related to risks, economic literacy and organizational performance. In total, 32 articles were meticulously analyzed, focusing on methodology, results and discussion sections to address research questions.FindingsThis study highlights the impact of risk factors on economic literacy and organizational performance, focusing on risk-taking, attitude, enterprise risk management (ERM), financial literacy and organizational performance. It reveals that possessing economic literacy can mitigate financial risks in corporations by helping entrepreneurs identify business opportunities and pitfalls, enabling informed and prudent financial decision-making. Conflicting findings challenge existing knowledge on the link between risk factors and financial literacy, particularly in new product development decisions, highlighting the need for further investigation into environmental factors shaping this connection.Originality/valueThe study developed a conceptual model that explains the interaction among economic literacy, risk factor and organization performance, which has implications for the development of the required intellectual capital to mitigate the impact of risk factors. Also, the study identified diverse conceptual, methodological and geographical gaps that will provide direction for future studies. Future research could delve into firm-level or cross-country data via surveys, interviews or focus groups, enriching the research's robustness and depth for nuanced insights into the investigated relationships.

This paper aims to highlight the corruption mode of village funds in Indonesia and provide recommendations to reduce such crime.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper uses Diamond Fraud theory to explain why the mode of corruption continues, using secondary data from journal articles, research reports and websites.

Findings
Corruption mode is carried out through fund misuse, cover-up, fictional reports, fictitious activities and projects and budget markup.

Practical implications
Prevention and detection of fraud can be more effective when considering pressure, opportunities, rationalization and individual abilities.

Originality/value
The novelty of this paper is to provide a more comprehensive view of the factors that can lead to fraud or corruption using the Fraud Diamond Theory.
Individual capacity growth over time in leadership courses: an intra-individual multilevel model approach
Authors: Klein Robert C. , Rosch David Michael 
Published: July 2024

PurposeOur study was designed to investigate the longitudinal trajectories of student leader development capacities in a sample of students enrolled in multiple leadership-focused courses across several semesters. Our goal was to assess the degree to which course enrollment was associated with growth over the time that students engage as undergraduates in academic leadership programs, and if so, to assess the shape and speed of capacity change.Design/methodology/approachWe utilized a multilevel intra-individual modeling approach assessing students’ motivation to lead, leader self-efficacy, and leadership skills across multiple data collection points for students in a campus major or minor focused on leadership studies. We compared an unconditional model, a fixed effect model, a random intercept model, a random slope model, and a random slope and intercept model to determine the shape of score trajectories. Our approach was not to collect traditional pre-test and post-test data – choosing to collect data only at the beginning of each semester – to reduce time cues typically inherent within pre-test and post-test collections.FindingsOur results strongly suggested that individual students differ greatly in the degree to which they report the capacity to lead when initially enrolling in their first class. Surprisingly, the various models were unable to predict a pattern of longitudinal leader development through repeated course enrollment in our sample.Originality/valueOur investigation employed statistical methods that are not often utilized in leadership education quantitative research, and also included a data collection effort designed to avoid a linear pre-test/post-test score comparison.

Authors: Khanom Nilufa , Shee Himanshu 
Published: July 2024

PurposeIncreasing workforce diversity requires leadership to ensure employees retain their well-being. This study aims to examine how employees’ and managers’ co-creation of diversity in the workplace influences positive leadership (PL) style, which in turn affects employee well-being (EWB) positively.Design/methodology/approachEmployees and managers of Australian businesses participated in a cross-sectional survey. EWB was regressed on PL style and diversity dimensions (DDs). Also, the mediation effect of PL style between DDs and EWB was tested.FindingsResults suggest that Australian organisations appear to have more employee diversity with its partial impact on managers’ PL style, which then positively affects on employee well-being (EWB). Furthermore, the PL style partially mediated the relationship between DDs and EWB.Practical implicationsManagers will better understand workplace diversities and the key role that PL style can play in enhancing EWB.Social implicationsThis study will help improve employees' and managers' personal and social lives by developing a better understanding of health and well-being. It will have further economic impacts, such as higher organisational productivity.Originality/valueThis study fills the gap in the literature where PL style will positively affect EWB. Investigating the relationship between DDs, PL style and EWB using PERMA-profiler is a unique contribution.

Published: July 2024

PurposeThis study aims to explore the relationship between contemporary cities and traditional urban forms. The central focus lies in identifying the key factors that facilitate the harmonious coexistence of these contrasting sides of the city.Design/methodology/approachThis study takes Iranian bazaars as exemplars of traditional urban forms. To assess their current status, a comprehensive examination of their general evolution is conducted, tracing the transition of these urban complexes up to the present day. Subsequently, morphological analysis and exploration of spatial arrangements across numerous cases are employed to unveil the factors contributing to their disappearance or adaptation within the framework of Iran’s contemporary urban era.FindingsThe evolution process of the Iranian bazaar shows that the encounter between traditional bazaars and modernity occurred swiftly and blindly, resulting in adverse effects on traditional urban forms, notably bazaars. In recent years, contemporary urban planning has undertaken corrective measures, adopting a more nuanced approach. This shift significantly strides in restoring the symbiotic relationship between cities and their traditional bazaars. Morphologically, certain bazaars have preserved their vitality in contemporary cities through their natural development patterns, adept integration with new urban textures and the implementation of ingenious adaptive strategies.Originality/valueThis study employs a comprehensive and equitable approach to examining a distinct category of traditional urban forms. It initiates the inquiry by meticulously considering historical continuity in conjunction with detailed contemporary circumstances, subsequently scrutinising their losses, damages and developmental aspects. An extensive collection of cases is assembled and subjected to a consistent analytical framework for comparative evaluation to obtain the most accurate result. Consequently, the outcomes of this research may help the present urban planners engaged in projects concerning the restoration, preservation, revitalisation and development of traditional urban forms.

Published: July 2024

SummaryBackground and objectivesFlexible biologic therapy dosing regimens in psoriasis management are common, but data from routine care in Germany are scarce. This study evaluated treatment adjustments for biologic therapies commonly prescribed in Germany.Patients and methodsCharts for up to 100 consecutive patients treated at 29 centers were reviewed. Data were extracted for adults (aged 18–65 years) with moderate‐to‐severe plaque psoriasis treated with adalimumab, guselkumab, ixekizumab, secukinumab, or ustekinumab for ≥ 36 weeks. The primary endpoint was time to first treatment adjustment. Secondary endpoints included frequency of and reasons for treatment adjustments. Time to treatment adjustment was analyzed using Kaplan‐Meier methods.ResultsAmong 982 patients, 297 treatment adjustments in 240 (24.4%) patients were identified. The mean (median; interquartile range) time to first treatment adjustment (n = 223) was 8.4 (4.0; 2.0–12.0) months (secukinumab: 14.1 [10.0; 4.0–21.0], adalimumab: 11.0 [7.0; 3.0–14.5], ustekinumab: 11.0 [6.0; 2.0–16.0], ixekizumab: 5.8 [3.0; 2.0–8.5], guselkumab: 5.1 [3.0; 2.0–7.0]). The most frequent adjustment type was starting concomitant treatment(s) (10.4% of patients); insufficient skin effectiveness was the most frequent reason for adjustment.ConclusionsBiological treatment adjustments are frequent in moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis; flexible dosing regimens would support optimal management.

Published: July 2024

AbstractObjectiveTo determine whether blended learning results in better educational outcomes compared to traditional learning in the acquisition of oral surgery technical skills for 4th‐year undergraduate dental students.Materials and MethodsSeventy‐three students participated in this two‐arm parallel randomized controlled trial. Only students in the blended learning group had access to the online preparation platform for oral surgery practical work (PW) on a pig's jaw and to the debriefing. Kirkpatrick's four‐level model was used to assess the educational outcomes directly after (levels 1 and 2) and 6 months later, after the start of the students' clinical activity (levels 3 and 4).ResultsFor level 1, higher global satisfaction scores were found for students in the blended learning compared to the traditional learning group (p = .002). For level 2, blended learning resulted in an increase in knowledge score (p < .01), comparable to that observed in the traditional learning group. For level 3, students in the blended group made more progress in 6 months than those in the traditional group in terms of feeling able to assess and perform anaesthesia (p = .040) and surgical tooth extraction (p = .043). No difference in level 4 was found for the 6‐month clinical surgical activity between groups, but students in the blended group felt more able to assess and perform the surgical management of a failed extraction requiring bone removal (p = .044).ConclusionBlended learning for oral surgery PW had a positive impact on three of the four Kirkpatrick levels (level 1, 3 and 4). Efforts should focus on the procedures that are perceived as the most difficult.
Family meals are associated with lower substance use in female adolescents
Authors: Rahal Danny , Irwin Michael R. , Fuligni Andrew J. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractAdolescents, especially female youth, who have more family meals tend to be at lower risk for substance use. The present study tested whether family meals relate to substance use count and frequency during high school, whether associations differ by gender, and whether other family‐related variables explain these associations. A community sample of 316 adolescents (M
age = 16.40, SD = 0.74; 56.96% female; 41.77% Latine, 23.10% Asian American, 29.11% European American, 6.01% from other ethnic backgrounds including Middle Eastern and African American) reported the number of substances they have ever used and how often they used alcohol, marijuana, and cigarettes, and completed measures of parental support and family cohesion. Across 15 days, they reported whether they had a family meal, got along with parents, and spent leisure time with their family each day. Regression models tested associations between frequency of family meals and substance use, whether associations differed by gender, and whether associations were explained by other family‐related variables. Results indicated that more frequent family meals were associated with lower substance use count and less frequent alcohol, marijuana, and cigarette use among female adolescents but not male adolescents. Other daily family experiences were unrelated to substance use, and family meal frequency was independently related to lower substance use after accounting for parental support and family cohesion. Taken together, more frequent family meals in high school may reduce substance use risk for female adolescents, and interventions could consider promoting family meals in addition to other positive family values.
