Published: August 2024

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the effects of digital overload on job autonomy and job satisfaction among civil servants in the Nigerian public sector using the job demand–resources model.Design/methodology/approachA questionnaire survey was conducted among mid-career and senior-level officers in five federal ministries in Nigeria. The collected data were analyzed by using structural equation modeling partial least squares to test the research hypotheses and necessary condition analysis to assess the necessary conditions for high satisfaction among civil servants.FindingsThe study reveals that the use of information and communication technology (ICT) has a significant positive impact on digital overload. Furthermore, digital overload has a significant negative effect on job autonomy and adversely affects job satisfaction. Additionally, job autonomy partially mediates the relationship between digital overload and job satisfaction. Job autonomy and ICT use were found to be necessary conditions for high satisfaction.Research limitations/implicationsThe study acknowledges certain limitations, such as the focus on civil servants in federal ministries in Nigeria and the reliance on self-reported data.Practical implicationsThe findings of this study have practical implications for policymakers in the Nigerian civil service. They highlight the importance of reducing digital overload and promoting job autonomy to enhance job satisfaction, as well as to improve the overall performance and efficiency of the public sector.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the existing literature by providing insights into the detrimental effects of digital overload on civil servants’ job autonomy and satisfaction in the Nigerian public sector. It explores a relatively unexplored aspect of digitalization and emphasizes the need to address the negative implications of digital overload. Additionally, it examines the necessary conditions for high satisfaction among civil servants.
Shared sensemaking during a strategic change process: a non-managerial perspective
Authors: de Metz Nadine , Jansen van Rensburg Mari , Davis Annemarie 
Published: August 2024

PurposeThis study offers insight into how individuals in non-managerial positions make sense of a strategic change as it unfolds. We explore the dynamic aspects of how these individuals perceive and engage with the evolving process, and how shared strategic understanding is created. The study aimed to bridge the gap between structure and action by highlighting the agency of faculty staff members, during strategic change, in a business school context.Design/methodology/approachThe study utilized a longitudinal, real-time, inductive approach based on a single explanatory case study to describe how phenomena change over time in context, focusing on faculty staff members in non-managerial positions. Qualitative data was collected in three phases involving real-time reflective diaries and observations, interviews, and documentation. A combinatory process-practice ontology, was adopted, complemented by a “temporal lens” to capture the strategic change process as it unfolded.FindingsThe authors present a temporal process model of strategic change and identify four enabling factors through which shared sensemaking was achieved during the change process. Additionally, the study explores the role of tensions and dissonance in fostering reflection and progress within the context of organizational change.Originality/valueFindings contribute to the concept of shared sensemaking, and we illustrate how a change process is enabled through the interplay of dynamic (less visible) practices and static (prescriptive) elements of a change process. We contribute towards theory development through a more comprehensive understanding of contextual dynamics and how change processes unfold and interweave, by considering process, structure, and context.
Does the adoption of artificial intelligence by audit firms and their clients affect audit quality and efficiency? Evidence from China
Authors: Rahman Md Jahidur , Zhu Hongtao , Yue Li 
Published: August 2024

Purpose
This study aims to examine whether the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) by audit firms and their clients affects audit efficiency and audit quality.

Design/methodology/approach
This study empirically examines the abovementioned research question based on data from China for the years 2011 to 2020. It uses audit report lag as a proxy for audit efficiency and the likelihood of annual report restatement as a proxy for audit quality. It adopts the propensity score matching and the two-stage OLS regression model to address the endogeneity issue led by firms’ innate complicated functions.

Findings
The findings show that when audit firms and their clients use AI separately, there's a positive link between AI use and audit report lag. However, when audit firms and clients use AI together, there's a negative link between AI use and audit report delays that enhance overall audit efficiency. Next, the authors observe a negative link between AI use and the likelihood of a restatement. Finally, the authors find that the association between AI adoption and audit quality is driven by increased audit effort lag. Results are consistent and robust to endogeneity tests and sensitivity analyses.

Originality/value
Findings can complement the audit quality and corporate governance literature by clarifying that external audit must evolve through digitalization and the incorporation of newly developed digital tools, such as AI.
Beyond the bottom line: assessing the social return on investment of a disability-inclusive social enterprise
Authors: Hutchinson Claire , Lester Leanne , Coram Veronica , Flatau Paul , Goodwin-Smith Ian 
Published: August 2024

Purpose
Though qualitative evidence of social impact exists for disability-inclusive social enterprise, there is a dearth of quantitative economic impact on their social impact. This study aims to address this gap and investigate the appropriateness and usefulness of social return on investment (SROI) methodology in this context.

Design/methodology/approach
Primary data was collected from people with disabilities, their families, staff at the parent company (an Australian Disability Enterprise [ADE]), social investors and other key stakeholders (n = 17). The study was also informed by the literature and a steering group to provide expert opinion when no other data existed to inform estimates. Sensitivity analysis was performed to check the robustness of the analysis.

Findings
Social return was estimated at $1.47–$2.65 for every $1 invested (over 3 years) and $8.48–$12.63 (20 years). Some forecast assumptions significantly impacted upon final ratios and need to be tested. How SROI ratios are received by social investors, the ADE sector and government remains untested. However, the political climate suggests ADEs adopting social enterprise models will be well received if they can deliver, and demonstrate through robust measurement, sustainable open employment opportunities.

Originality/value
Few studies exist that estimate the social impact of social enterprises supporting open employment of people with disabilities. At a time when ADEs (sheltered workshops) have been heavily criticised for providing repetitive, menial work for top up wages on welfare payments, the outputs from this research may provide valuable data to an ADE sector in transition as well as social investors and policy makers who increasingly require robust measurement of impact.

Published: August 2024

AbstractPsoriasis is a complex, chronic inflammatory skin disease that significantly impacts patients' quality of life (QOL), especially in cases of genital, nail, and scalp psoriasis. Bimekizumab is an inhibitor of interleukin (IL)‐17A and IL‐17F and used for the treatment of psoriasis. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of bimekizumab through in treating genital, nail, and scalp lesions with psoriasis over 24 weeks. The study was conducted from May 2022 and February 2024 on 52 psoriasis patients treated with bimekizumab. The therapeutic effects of bimekizumab were evaluated by the achievement of Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) rates of 0/1 on the genitals (genital‐PGA), fingernails (PGA‐F), scalp‐specific PGA (ss‐PGA), static PGA (sPGA), and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at weeks 4, 16, and 24. Bimekizumab treatment significantly improved genital, nail, and scalp lesions with psoriasis. At week 24, the achievement rate of genital‐PGA 0/1, PGA‐F 0/1, ss‐PGA 0/1 was 96.2%, 66.7%, or 93.9%, and that of sPGA 0/1 or DLQI 0/1 was 93.9% or 83.3%, respectively. Bimekizumab was effective for genital, nail, and scalp lesions with psoriasis, difficult‐to‐treat lesions, and simultaneously improved QOL in a real‐world clinical practice.

Published: August 2024

AbstractBackgroundOver the past 25 years, global opioid consumption has increased. Denmark ranks fifth in opioid use globally, exceeding other Scandinavian countries. Postsurgical pain is a common reason for opioid prescriptions, but opioid use patterns after patient discharge from the hospital are unclear. This study examines trends in opioid prescription among Danish surgical patients over a year.MethodsThis register‐based cohort study will use data from Danish governmental databases related to patients undergoing the 10 most frequent surgical procedures in 2018, excluding cancer‐related and minor procedures. The primary outcome will be the dispensed postoperative opioid prescriptions at retail pharmacies over four quarters. Secondary analyses will include associations with sex, age, education attainment, and oral morphine equivalent quotient. Surgical treatments and diagnoses will be identified using NOMESCO procedure codes and ICD‐10 codes. Opioids will be identified by ATC codes N02A and R05DA04. Subjects will be classified as preoperative opioid consumers or non‐opioid consumers based on opioid prescriptions redeemed in the 6 months before surgery.DiscussionThe study will use extensive national register‐based data, ensuring consistent data collection and enhancing the generalizability of the findings to similar healthcare systems. The study may identify high‐risk populations for long‐term opioids and provide information to support opioid prescribing guidelines and public health policies.

Published: August 2024

AbstractPurposeTreatment with glucocorticoids following paediatric cataract surgery is crucial to prevent inflammation, but may lead to secondary glaucoma, and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis suppression. We wish to compare glaucoma outcomes following high‐dose and low‐dose glucocorticoid treatment after paediatric cataract surgery.MethodsThis cohort study included Danish children undergoing cataract surgery before 10 years of age, receiving either a low‐dose or high‐dose postoperative glucocorticoid treatment. Case identification and collection of a standardized dataset were retrospective, from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2016, and prospective thereafter, until 31 December 2021. High‐dose treatment included 0.5–1.0 mg subconjunctival depot dexamethasone or methylprednisolone, followed by 6–8 drops of dexamethasone for 1 week, tapered by one drop weekly. Low‐dose treatment included 6 drops for 3 days, followed by 3 drops for 18 days. Sustained (>3 months) ocular hypertension or glaucoma was compared between the two groups.ResultsOverall, 267 children (388 eyes) were included in the study. Ninety‐five children (133 eyes) had received high‐dose treatment and had a median follow‐up time of 89 months (IQR: 57.2–107.4), while 173 children (255 eyes) had received the low‐dose treatment and had a median follow‐up time of 40.5 months (IQR: 22.9–60.4). Survival curves showed a lower risk of glaucoma in the low‐dose group for children with axial lengths ≥18 mm.ConclusionLow‐dose glucocorticoid treatment was associated with a lower risk of glaucoma in children with axial lengths ≥18 mm. The same effect was not observed in children with shorter eyes. High‐dose glucocorticoid should be limited in children undergoing cataract surgery.

Published: August 2024

AbstractAlthough positive attitudes toward own aging (ATOA) have been shown to be associated with higher levels of quality of life (QoL) among older adults, the potential interrelationship between ATOA and QoL has not been fully explored. A sample of 2129 older adults aged 60 and above who participated in the three waves of the Chinese longitudinal healthy longevity survey was used. QoL was measured using three indicators, including self‐rated health, loneliness, and life satisfaction. The cross‐lagged analysis results showed that the bidirectional association between ATOA and QoL was not significant, while positive ATOA predicted better self‐rated health, higher life satisfaction, and less loneliness. And there are no gender or age differences in the above relationships. In addition, economic status, sleep quality, and activity participation were common influences on self‐rated health, life satisfaction, and loneliness, as well as important factors affecting ATOA. Several variables, such as demographic characteristics, health behaviors, and health status, also influenced QoL and ATOA. Measures to promote positive ATOA can help improve QoL. In addition, emphasis should be placed on improving economic status, sleep quality, and activity participation levels to enhance QoL and ATOA in older adults, with appropriate interventions targeting other factors affecting QoL and ATOA.
Quality of life in older adults with mood states associated with bipolar disorder: A secondary analysis of the English longitudinal study of ageing data

Published: August 2024

AbstractObjectivesTo investigate: (i) whether mood states associated with bipolar disorder are associated with poorer quality of life in older adults, and (ii) what are some of the predictors of quality of life in older adults with mood states associated with bipolar disorder.MethodsThe authors completed a cross‐sectional multilevel analysis of panel data from seven waves of The English Longitudinal Study of Ageing dataset. The main analysis included 567 participants who reported experiencing mood states associated with bipolar disorder. Some participants reported this in more than one wave, resulting in 835 observations of mood states associated with bipolar disorder across the seven waves. Quality of life was assessed using the Control, Autonomy, Self‐realization, and Pleasure‐19 (CASP‐19) measure.ResultsThe presence of mood states associated with bipolar disorder was significantly associated with poorer quality of life, even after controlling for multiple covariates (age, sex, social isolation, loneliness, alcohol use, education level, and economic status). Loneliness significantly predicted poorer quality of life in older adults with mood states associated with bipolar disorder. In contrast, higher educational attainment and being female predicted better quality of life in this group.ConclusionsOlder adults with mood states associated with bipolar disorder have potentially worse quality of life compared to the general population, which may be partly driven by loneliness. This has ramifications for the support offered to this population and suggests that treatments should focus on reducing loneliness to improve outcomes.
Trajectories of ethnic discrimination and school adjustment of ethnically minoritized adolescents: The role of school diversity climate
Authors: Baysu Gülseli , Grew Eva , Hillekens Jessie , Phalet Karen 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThis study investigated trajectories of ethnic discrimination experiences in school, diversity climates as contextual antecedents, and school adjustment as outcome. Latent‐Growth‐Mixture‐Models of repeated self‐reported discrimination over 3 years (2012–2015) by 1445 ethnically‐minoritized adolescents of Turkish and Moroccan background in 70 Belgian schools (52.6% boys, M
age = 15.07) revealed four trajectories: low (72.5%), moderate (16.6%), initially‐high (6.5%), or increasingly high discrimination (4.4%). Adolescents who attended schools with more minoritized peers, or schools that valued cultural diversity and equality, were more often in low‐discrimination trajectories, which predicted better academic outcomes. Overall, school diversity climates can protect minoritized adolescents from experiencing persistent or initially high discrimination over time. Moreover, high discrimination at any point in schooling—initially or later—is harmful to adolescents' school adjustment.

The evolution of structural gravity: The workhorse model of trade
Authors: Yotov Yoto V. 
Published: August 2024

AbstractThe gravity model is the workhorse model of trade. Yet, many economists still view gravity as a reduced‐form estimating equation and apply it without guidance from theory, while others are skeptical about its usefulness for counterfactual projections. This paper offers a historical overview of the evolution of gravity, from an a‐theoretical application to an estimating computable general equilibrium model, which can be nested in more complex frameworks. Along the way, I address some misconceptions about gravity, summarize the current recommendations for gravity estimations, highlight properties that have made gravity so successful, and review the latest contributions to the related literature.
Broad‐scale seasonal climate tracking is a consequence, not a driver, of avian migratory connectivity

AbstractTracking climatic conditions throughout the year is often assumed to be an adaptive behaviour underlying seasonal migration patterns in animal populations. We investigate this hypothesis using genetic markers data to map migratory connectivity for 27 genetically distinct bird populations from 7 species. We found that the variation in seasonal climate tracking across our suite of populations at a continental scale is more likely a consequence, rather than a direct driver, of migratory connectivity, which is primarily shaped by energy efficiency—i.e., optimizing the balance between accessing available resources and movement costs. However, our results also suggest that regional‐scale seasonal precipitation tracking affects population migration destinations, thus revealing a potential scale dependency of ecological processes driving migration. Our results have implications for the conservation of these migratory species under climate change, as populations tracking climate seasonally are potentially at higher risk if they adapt to a narrow range of climatic conditions.

AbstractBackground and PurposeThis study evaluated associations of brain amyloid with 2‐year objective and subjective cognitive measures in a trial‐ready older general population at risk for dementia.MethodsForty‐eight participants in the Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability underwent 11C‐Pittsburgh compound B (PiB) positron emission tomography (PET) scans and assessment of cognition (modified Neuropsychological Test Battery [NTB]) and subjective memory complaints (Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire).ResultsMean age was 71.4 ± 5.06 years, and 20 participants (42%) had positive baseline PiB‐PET scans. Amyloid positivity was associated with lower NTB executive function at baseline and less favorable 2‐year NTB total score and memory trajectories, but not with other objective or subjective cognitive measures. Overall, there was little cognitive decline during 2 years.ConclusionsAmyloid accumulation may affect objective but not necessarily subjective cognition from a very early at‐risk stage, although substantial decline likely requires >2 years to occur.
