An integrated approach for individualised support: carers' views
Authors: Moule Pam , Pollard Katherine , Clarke Jackie , Fear Christine , Lawson Bob , Thompson Rennie , Young Pat 
Published: November 2014

Purpose
– The purpose of this paper was to capture carers’ views of a service in Bristol funded jointly by the Local Authority and the NHS Clinical Commissioning Group, which offers support to carers in the form of a one-off payment which they can use for anything they choose.

Design/methodology/approach
– A multi-method evaluation of this integrated service was conducted between August 2012 and October 2013 to explore its impact on carers’ health and well-being. This paper presents findings from 40 interviews conducted with carers as part of the evaluation.

Findings
– Many carers have little respite from very stressful situations; the break enabled them to focus on their own needs. Carers’ needs included actual short breaks away with or without those being cared for, as well as items like household equipment or exercise classes.

Research limitations/implications
– The study was centred on an innovation and integrated approach to support carers in one city and provides a snap-shot of the short-term effects. Longer lasting effects are not known.

Social implications
– Most carers found the support beneficial, and in some cases reported a positive effect on their own health and well-being. Effective inter-agency communication and collaboration is essential for the success of the integrated service.

Originality/value
– There is limited research available on the outcomes of integrated approaches to support carers.
“I don’t know why I’m here”: from knot-working to not-knowing
Authors: Wegener Charlotte 
Published: November 2014

Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to examine the idea of getting lost during field studies as a point of departure for reframing the initial research question.Design/methodology/approach– The paper presents field notes and reflections to illustrate the process of tracing innovation in the field by means of a theoretical concept – “knot-working” as proposed by Engeström (2008). By paying attention to seemingly irrelevant empirical data and experiences of being lost, the author infuses another theoretical concept – “not-knowing” as proposed by Lather (2007).Findings– By questioning research questions, it becomes possible to challenge conventional assumptions in the field under study as well as assumptions underlying existing theory. It is argued that good research questions evolve iteratively throughout a study and might be even more valuable than answers (Alvesson and Sandberg, 2013). The paper illustrates how not-knowing can serve as a methodological perspective from where ordinary held assumptions can be reconsidered, thus paving the way for novel research questions that can enhance established theory.Originality/value– The paper questions the initial research question: “How is the elderly care sector affected by innovation imperatives,” and ends up posing the reverse question: How are innovation imperatives affected – or how could they be affected – by the notion of care.
Using cues to forage for information on the Web
Authors: D. Tomasi Stella 
Published: November 2014

Purpose
– The purpose of this paper was to study users’ behaviour when using different search engine results pages (SERPs) to identify what types of scents (cues) were the most useful to find relevant information to complete tasks on the Web based on information foraging theory.

Design/methodology/approach
– This study has designed three interface prototypes and conducted a qualitative study using the protocol analysis methodology. The subjects were recorded and videotaped to identify patterns of searching behaviours on visualization interfaces of SERPs.

Findings
– The study found that users found titles of categories or websites, keywords of categories, orientation of results and animation are strong scents that users follow to help find information on SERPs. If certain scents are not used followed on an interface, then their strength will diminish. Furthermore, the study showed that simple scent trails are more important to users than complicated trails.

Originality/value
– This study uses a qualitative approach to explore how users behave with different SERP formats, particularity a visualization format, and identify which scents on the interface are important for users to follow to successfully complete tasks on the Web.
Revisiting of Theory X and Y
Authors: Gürbüz Sait , Şahin Faruk , Köksal Onur 
Published: November 2014

Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of leaders’ Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on subordinates’ attitudes and behaviors.Design/methodology/approach– Military leaders (n=50) completed a questionnaire with Theory X and Y scale and their subordinates (n=150) completed a questionnaire with the scales of satisfaction with leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior. The paper used hierarchical linear modeling to test the hypotheses.Findings– The results indicated that the Theory Y management style is significantly and positively associated with subordinates’ satisfaction with the leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behaviors. The Theory X management style had a significantly negative impact on subordinates’ satisfaction with the leader, but no significant impact on affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior. The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes.Research limitations/implications– The sample consisted of military personnel and were predominantly male. This may limit the generalizability of the findings.Practical implications– The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes.Originality/value– Although McGregor's (1960) Theory X and Y have contributed to management and leadership thinking and practice for many years; empirical studies examining the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions in a work environment are very scarce. By examining the effect of leader's Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on follower's attitudes and behaviors, the study provides important insights for leadership literature.

How strategists use “big data” to support internal business decisions, discovery and production
Authors: H. Davenport Thomas 
Published: November 2014

Purpose
– The author, an internationally known IT expert, aims to explain how big data is being used by leading corporations to promote better decision making, especially about innovation.

Design/methodology/approach
– Big data is the collection and interpretation of massive data sets, made possible by vast computing power that monitors a variety of digital streams – such as sensors, marketplace interactions and social information exchanges – and analyses them using “smart” algorithms. It offers a promising new way to discover new opportunities to offer customers high-value products and services.

Findings
– Big data […] resembles not so much a pool of statistics as an ongoing, fast-flowing stream of information about customer choices. Therefore, a more continuous approach to sampling, analyzing and acting on data is necessary.

Practical implications
– A number of major financial services firms are using “customer journeys” through the tangle of websites, call centers, tellers and other branch personnel to better understand the paths that customers follow through the organization, and how those paths affect attrition or the purchase of particular financial services.

Originality/value
– The desired outcome of data discovery is an idea – a notion of a new product, service, or feature, or a hypothesis – with supporting evidence – that an existing model can be improved. Increasingly, corporate strategists are recognizing that big data architecture and management should be designed so that discovery and analysis is the first order of business.
Does corporate social responsibility matter to consumers in Indonesia?
Authors: Arli Denni , Tjiptono Fandy 
Published: November 2014

Purpose– The purpose of this research is to examine consumers’ perceptions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and to explore the impact of CSR on consumers’ support in Indonesia.Design/methodology/approach– A convenience sample of respondents in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, was collected. The final sample consisted of 254 surveys.Findings– The findings confirmed the applicability of Carroll’s (1979) categorization of CSRs to consumers in Indonesia but challenged the order of importance of these responsibilities. In addition, the results clearly indicated that perceptions of legal and philanthropic responsibilities significantly explained consumers’ support for responsible businesses. The results will assist managers operating in the developing countries, especially Indonesia.Research limitations/implications– The sample was taken from one city (i.e. Yogyakarta) in Indonesia and may not represent all Indonesians, as it is a culturally diverse country. Thus, this limits the generalizability of the findings.Practical implications– For businesses operating in Indonesia, it is important to focus on being a company that follows the regulatory system and supports various philanthropic activities such as poverty reduction, especially when half of the population in Indonesia lives just above the national poverty line. It has been shown that inoculation communication strategy will reduce perceived hypocrisy and mitigate its negative consequences.Originality/value– The study examined consumers in Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous nation. The results will provide some insights for multinationals operating in Indonesia.
Experiences of prison officers on a Lifer Psychologically Informed Planned Environment
Authors: Bond Natalie , Gemmell Linda 
Published: November 2014

Purpose– Psychologically Informed Planned Environments (PIPEs) provide a pathway facility for offenders with complex needs, such as personality disorder; to maintain and develop the progress made on offending behaviour programmes (Ministry of Justice and Department of Health, 2012). The purpose of this paper is to explore the experiences of prison officers who work on a PIPE in a Lifer prison.Design/methodology/approach– Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to explore the experiences of five prison officers working on a PIPE in a Lifer prison.Findings– Main themes identified were labelled “Role Conflict”, “Growth”, “Relationships” and “Impact”. A rich and detailed account of the experience of the “voyage of discovery” and the personal challenges, costs and rewards of the PIPE work was achieved.Research limitations/implications– Limitations include the small number of participants, limited focus of the researchers, both Forensic Psychologists, and the uniqueness of the context, a Lifer prison. Limitations might be addressed by future research that could expand on the current findings. Implications for future research include further exploration of the psychological impact of the work, dynamics within the PIPE and the value of attachment theory in work with personality disordered offenders. Implications for future policy and practice concern training, support and the development of new PIPEs.Originality/value– The research adds a rich account of what it is like for these prison officers to work on a PIPE in a Lifer prison. The experiences shared reveal the personal challenge, costs and rewards of the work through which ideas to develop the staff, residents and the PIPE model emerged.
Organizational learning culture and customer satisfaction
Authors: Islam Talat , Ahmad Kassim Norliya , Ali Ghulam , Sadiq Misbah 
Published: November 2014

Purpose
– The aim of this study is to develop a theoretical framework with which to investigate the inter-relationships between organizational learning culture, normative commitment and customer satisfaction through the use of empirical investigation across the service sector.

Design/methodology/approach
– A questionnaire-based survey was given to 297 Malaysian employees in different service organizations.

Findings
– First, instruments were checked regarding its uni-dimensionality by applying confirmatory factor analysis and then structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied to test the model. SEM confirms that organizational learning culture not only directly influences customer satisfaction, but also has an indirect influence through normative commitment.

Research limitations/implications
– The study selected samples from Malaysia, the results might be different if samples are taken from a geographically different area.

Practical implications
– The study has theoretical and practical implications for Human Resources managers to enhance employees’ organizational commitment and customer satisfaction.

Originality/value
– The study highlights the importance of organizational learning culture in enhancing an employee’s commitment towards their organizations and customer satisfaction.
Rural tourism opportunities: strategies and requirements for destination leadership in peripheral areas
Authors: Pröbstl-Haider Ulrike , Melzer Verena , Jiricka Alexandra 
Published: November 2014

PurposeThis paper aims to address lack in destination leadership and to propose a new typology of approaches. Frequently, rural tourism is suggested as a remedy that should enhance the local economy, create new jobs, strengthen the regional identity and finance the infrastructure.Design/methodology/approachCase study analysis shows that regions, communities, tourism organizations and managers use different strategies to strengthen their tourism offers or to develop new ones. The paper analyzes different development approaches among destinations and discusses their respective leadership structure.FindingsThe typology of tourism development models makes the different development options transparent and easy to understand. This may aid a community to support tourism development with spatial planning and avoid conflicts with other forms of land uses. Overall, leadership for rural tourism development should lead to a strategic cooperation between tourism businesses and other organizations based on a commitment to destination coherence.Research limitations/implicationsThe chosen research approach is based on the analysis of Central European case studies. Therefore, researchers of other geographical backgrounds are encouraged to test the proposed propositions further.Practical implicationsThe presented typology illustrated four distinct options of coherent development strategies, which can support communities/regions to find a long-term decision frame.Originality/valueThe presented typology facilitates collaborative planning, helps operationalize rural tourism development policies and provides the foundation for spatial planning, all of which furthers the linkages between tourism and other sectors in the rural economy.
Portuguese tourism – facing the crisis
Authors: Brito Sérgio Palma 
Published: November 2014

Purpose
– The purpose of this paper is address two questions: “Did the context of economic crisis affect the image of Portugal as a tourist destination? And What were the answers and lessons learned?”.

Design/methodology/approach
– The authors have no information to assess the effect of the crisis on the brand image of Portugal as a tourist destination. The paper limits itself to what is a first step in this assessment and assumes that periods of low demand for destination Portugal are linked in some way to the economic crisis. The paper examines the UK market demand for holiday travel to Portugal from 2009 to 2013 and additionally the revenue contribution from tourism to Portugal’s balance of payments. The data are analyzed in the context of two decisions relating to Portuguese tourism governance: the anti crisis measures of 2009 and the new model for tourism promotion of 2013.

Findings
– The paper assumes that during the period 2009-2013 the demand for Portuguese tourism was not affected by the crisis and, if any damage has been done to the international brand image of destination Portugal, its consequences are not dramatic. In fact, the demand for destination Portugal in the UK market remained strong and is higher than the market as a whole. The same applies to destination Greece and the decline in demand for destination Turkey seems to be linked to social and political crisis in the country. Given this context, it is interesting to note that revenue from travel and tourism in Portugal achieved a growth rate that had not occurred before in the recent past.

Research limitations/implications
– The scope for analyzing empirical data is limited to the statistical information for Tourism in Portugal. However, it is possible to identify patterns of demand behavior of demand that help provide clues to the variations in tourism flows.

Practical implications
– In 2013, the index of overnight stays and income to the Portuguese hospitality industry exceeded that of 2009, but the index of average revenue per overnight stay at current prices was still lower than that of 2009. It would appear that the anti-crisis measures that the government took in 2009 had little or no impact nor do the changes to the tourism promotion Model in 2013 reveal why the Government considered 2013 to be “the best tourist year ever” or in 2014 “an historic year”.

Originality/value
– The paper provides a bottom-up perspective, based on observation, measurement and analysis.
Animal Scavenging and Scattering and the Implications for Documenting the Deaths of Undocumented Border Crossers in the Sonoran Desert,
Authors: Beck Jess , Ostericher Ian , Sollish Gregory , De León Jason 
Published: November 2014

AbstractSince 1998, over 5500 people have died while attempting to cross the U.S.–Mexico border without authorization. These deaths have primarily occured in the Arizona desert. Despite the high volume of deaths, little experimental work has been conducted on Sonoran Desert taphonomy. In this study, pig carcasses were used as proxies for human remains and placed in different depositional contexts (i.e., direct sunlight and shade) that replicate typical sites of migrant death. Decomposition was documented through daily site visits, motion‐sensitive cameras and GIS mapping, while skeletal preservation was investigated through the collection of the remains and subsequent faunal analysis. Our results suggest that vultures and domestic dogs are underappreciated members of the Sonoran scavenging guild and may disperse skeletal remains and migrant possessions over 25 m from the site of death. The impact of scavengers and the desert environment on the decomposition process has significant implications for estimating death rates and identifying human remains along the Arizona/Mexico border.
The Importance of Microscopic Examination of the Lungs in Decedents with Sustained Central Intravascular Catheters: A Nine‐Case Series
Authors: Hamilton Heidi H. , Batalis Nicholas I. , Presnell Susan E. , Schandl Cynthia A. , Tormos Lee Marie 
Published: November 2014

AbstractIndwelling intravascular catheters provide convenient access to healthcare personnel and also recreational intravenous drug users who inject suspensions of oral medications. A nine‐case series of autopsies of clinically stable decedents with indwelling catheters and sudden death is herein presented. Pulmonary histologic findings were consistent with intravenous administration of oral medications in all cases. In eight, the mechanism of death was directly attributed to occlusive vascular embolization of foreign material, with or without contribution of acute drug toxicity. In one, the mechanism of death was solely attributed to acute drug toxicity. Acute, massive embolization of foreign material may explain sudden death by vascular obstruction, whereas chronic repeated injections lead to obliteration of the pulmonary vasculature, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and cardiac failure. Therefore, a complete autopsy with histologic examination of the lungs and toxicology testing is recommended in patients with indwelling catheters to determine the cause and mechanism of death.
Periodontal and peri‐implant microbiota in patients with healthy and inflamed periodontal and peri‐implant tissues
Authors: Zhuang Long‐Fei , Watt Rory M. , Mattheos Nikos , Si Mi‐Si , Lai Hong‐Chang , Lang Niklaus P. 
Published: November 2014

AbstractObjectiveTo compare the prevalence and levels of six bacterial pathogens within the subgingival/submucosal microbiota at teeth versus implants with various clinical conditions.Material and methodsTwenty‐two Chinese were included. Four subgingival/submucosal sites were selected for microbiological sampling within each subject, that is, (1) healthy peri‐implant tissues; (2) peri‐implantitis [PPD ≥ 5 mm, presence of bleeding on probing (BOP) and confirmed radiographic bone loss]; (3) healthy gingiva; and (4) periodontitis (PPD ≥4 mm). Subgingival/submucosal plaque was sampled using paper points. Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (q‐PCR) was used to quantify six pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g.), Treponema denticola (T.d.), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A.a.), Fusobacterium nucleatum (F.n.), Prevotella intermedia (P.i.), and Staphylococcus aureus (S.a.). Counts were log10‐transformed.ResultsThe most commonly detected species were S. a. and F. n., while A. a. and. P. i. had the lowest detection frequency. The detection frequencies of diseased tooth or implant sites for each of the six target species were either equal to or higher than the respective frequencies at the corresponding healthy sites. There were no statistically significant differences for any of the species or clinical sites (P > 0.05, Cochran's Q test). No statistically significant differences in the bacterial loads were found among the four clinical sites; with the exception of F. nucleatum. This was more abundant in periodontitis sites (P = 0.023, Friedman's 2‐way anova). Both periodontal and peri‐implant sites, irrespective of their health status, were revealed to harbor S. aureus cells. The log10‐transformed loads of S. aureus were approximately 3.5 within each of the clinical sites (P = 0.232). This was the highest of the six species analyzed.ConclusionsWithin the same subjects, putative periodontal pathogens were common to both periodontal and peri‐implant sites irrespective of health status. The prevalence and levels of P. gingivalis and F. nucleatum were significantly associated with periodontitis, but not with peri‐implantitis. A. actinomycetemcomitans was associated with both disease conditions, periodontitis and peri‐implantitis, but not with either gingival or mucosal health.
