Authors: Marques da Silva João Felipe , Gimenez Carvalho Brígida , Ricardo Martins Marina Sidnéia 
Published: July 2024

A diversidade de atores e prestadores, as múltiplas funções gestoras e as distintas formas de contratualização para a oferta de serviços públicos de saúde são alguns dos condicionantes do processo de regionalização do SUS. Nessa perspectiva, esse artigo analisa o processo de regionalização e contratualização da assistência especializada hospitalar, tendo em vista os aspectos mencionados, na perspectiva da gestão municipal. Trata-se de uma reflexão teórica sobre o processo de regionalização e contratualização, a partir da análise das normativas que orientam esse processo, particularmente daquelas que tratam das responsabilidades de gestão do ente municipal. O artigo apresenta uma análise teórica a respeito do processo de contratação de serviços hospitalares e da regionalização no âmbito do SUS; propõe uma classificação a respeito das modalidades contratuais e realiza um debate acerca da gestão do SUS e de estratégias de contratualização com vistas à regionalização. Conclui-se que as políticas voltadas à contratualização de serviços de saúde necessitam ser discutidas por constituir-se um aspecto fundamental para operacionalização da regionalização, além disso evidencia-se uma lacuna legislativa quanto à definição do papel e das responsabilidades gestoras. Diante disso, advoga-se a favor de um instrumento que permita a contratualização regionalizada e a segurança jurídica dos entes envolvidos.

A coleta de dados consistiu em um questionário sociodemográfico, aplicado a pessoas idosas, buscando o perfil, o uso de tecnologia e as percepções de isolamento social pela Escala de Lubben. A amostra foi constituída de 230 pessoas idosas, sendo que 199 pessoas (86,5%) alegaram usar a internet para acessar alguma rede social e 130 (56,5%) informaram dificuldades em acessar a internet. Quanto à frequência, 69,10% utilizam a internet frequentemente, enquanto 23,5% usam poucas vezes. No tocante ao isolamento social, a frequência medida através da Escala Breve de Redes Sociais de Lubben é de apenas 12%, apresentando-se socialmente isolados, enquanto 88% das pessoas apresentaram ausência de isolamento social. O uso de tecnologias digitais por pessoas idosas apresenta papel positivo na superação de sentimentos negativos como o de isolamento observados em tempo de distanciamento social pelo Covid-19, havendo necessidade de mais inclusão e letramento digital dessas pessoas.
Factors Affecting the Ability to Repay Debts of Corporations at Commercial Banks
Authors: Tran Tu Ngoc 
Published: July 2024

This study aims to estimate the influence of these factors on the ability of corporations to repay debts at commercial banks in Vietnam, especially in Ho Chi Minh City. Moreover, this study focuses on the period from 2018 to 2022. Hence, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic were also examined in this study. In addition, this study employs a binary logistic regression method to analyze the extent of the factors' impact on the ability of corporate customers to repay debts. The results reveal that the model includes six statistically significant factors: collateral, loan term, income, firm size, leverage, net sales, and COVID-19. Furthermore, the model can be used to forecast corporations’ ability to repay debts, which could help commercial banks plan their loan strategies for corporate customers based on the significant results of the Hosmer-Lemeshow test. The study, on the other hand, only focused on some banks in the biggest city in the south of Vietnam, so further research on the area is needed, such as over Vietnam.

Published: July 2024

Welfare technology has made a significant impact on society, supporting people´s communication, independence, and day-to-day living. This study aims to investigate university students' knowledge of welfare technologies related to smart active aging. The research was guided by the following questions: 1: What do Slovak university students know about welfare technologies? 2: How are welfare technologies used in the households of university students and their relatives? An online interview survey with reflexive thematic analysis was conducted with 120 university students at two universities in Slovakia. Findings show four themes that were identified: (1) Different interpretations of welfare technologies. (2) Broadening students’ knowledge about welfare smart technologies. (3) Attitudes towards smart and welfare technologies. (4) Gap in practical usage of welfare technologies. Welfare technology is a new topic connected to active aging. Primarily, the younger generation, as proved, has low knowledge on this theme. The novelty of the study lies in connecting the welfare technology concept with the education of the younger generation. Welfare technologies have the potential to promote positive intergenerational relationships, autonomy, and mental and physical well-being among older adults. As for improvements, smart active aging and welfare technology concepts should be incorporated more intensively into higher education. This would help curb the knowledge gap and ensure the development of skills for implementing welfare technologies in the daily lives of their elderly relatives.

Authors: Wu Ying-Ying , Batool Hira , Yang Yao-Jing 
Published: July 2024

E-commerce live streaming has experienced a significant and rapid increase in recent years, establishing itself as a vital catalyst for the growth of the e-commerce business. This research delves into the influence of e-commerce live streaming attributes, namely, authenticity, interactivity, and entertainment, on consumers' purchase intentions. It is based on the Stimulus‒Organism‒Response (SOR) theory and focuses on customer flow experience and hedonic shopping value. To evaluate the study model, the authors gathered survey data from 360 live streaming e-commerce customers and used structural equation modeling. The results indicate that client purchase intentions in e-commerce live streaming are positively influenced by authenticity, interactivity, and entertainment. Authenticity, entertainment, and interaction all contribute to enhancing consumers' flow experience in e-commerce live streaming, with interactivity being the most influential factor. The phenomenon of flow experience has a beneficial impact on the purchasing intentions of clients engaged in e-commerce live streaming. The flow experience serves as an intermediary between the characteristics of e-commerce live streaming and consumers' intentions to make purchases. Hedonic shopping value affects the relationship between the flow experience and the customer's intention to make a purchase. Put simply, when customers have a strong perception of the pleasure they derive from shopping, their intention to make purchases becomes more profound when they are influenced by the state of flow. This study not only contributes to the body of knowledge regarding the correlation between the attributes of e-commerce live streaming and consumer receptiveness, but it also provides businesses and platforms that utilize e-commerce live streaming with actionable recommendations. By improving the content design of live streaming features in e-commerce, customer engagement and immersion are significantly enhanced, establishing a foundation for increasing consumer purchase intention.

Authors: Raffak Hicham , Lakhouili Abdellah , Mansouri Mohamed 
Published: July 2024

To improve their market position and competitiveness, organizations aim to shorten production times, cut costs, and boost the quality and variety of their products. While Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is a good method to achieve these goals, implementing it can be risky: any change to a task in the initial process directly affects the final process's performance in terms of time, cost, and quality. This article, drawing on design science, a literature review, and a field study with responses from executives and managers of two companies in the aerospace and automotive sectors in Morocco to measure their satisfaction and identify their risk management needs, provides an overview of the BPR method, its implementation frameworks and methodologies, and explains the importance of risk management in such projects. It suggests an improved continuous risk management process for BPR projects that enhances the gathering and use of risk management data through machine learning.

Published: July 2024

Internet technology's worldwide success and adoption have provided organizations with direct access to their constituents and customers. Especially, organizations relying on online platforms provide comparatively better services and have strong relations with their clients. This research also focused on relevant phenomena in the United Arab Emirates banking sector organizations. The researchers employed a cross-sectional design and randomly selected a sample of n=400 individuals. Results revealed a significant impact of customer support services on providing product information (p>0.008) and service quality (p>0.000). Further, the effect of service quality on Artificial Intelligence also remained significant (p>0.000). Besides, Artificial Intelligence is also found significantly impact the Public Relations of Emirati banks (p>0.006). Finally, the mediating impact of communication skills on Artificial Intelligence and Public Relations remained significant (p>0.088). Moreover, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) revealed the Sum of Square Values at 568.19, the Overall Relative Error value at 0.813, and the accuracy level at 18.7% (training). While, regarding the testing, the Sum of Square Values remained at 256.80 and the Average Overall Relative Error value remained at 0.861, indicating an overall accuracy of 13.9%. Thus, it is concluded that the importance of two-way communication can be determined because it helps determine and understand the customers' needs and demands. The more an organization understands its customers, the more it fulfills their expectations, indicating the importance of two-way communication. Finally, this research recommends more studies regarding AI-enabled Emotional Intelligence in other sectors to dig out in-depth results. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-08-03-020 Full Text: PDF
Stimulation of Purchase Behavior Toward Biodegradable Bags: The Role of Green Skepticism
Authors: Nguyen Le , Hoa Nguyen Thi Lien 
Published: July 2024

Today, the habit of using light, durable, and disposable plastics that are poorly managed is one of the main reasons for environmental pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change in Vietnam. Besides, due to the lack of consumption, most plastic companies in Vietnam refuse to switch their production to biodegradable plastic bags. The study is conducted to promote the purchase behavior of biodegradable plastic bags, which can reduce the consumption of non-degradable plastic in Vietnam. A non-probability sampling method was applied, with a sample size of 828 consumers who lived in Southeast Vietnam. SmartPLS software was applied to examine the hypotheses. The results show that attitudes, coping appraisal, and threat positively influence the purchase behavior of biodegradable plastic bags. Green skepticism negatively moderates the relationship between attitudes, coping appraisal, threat appraisal, and purchase intention toward biodegradable plastic bags. This study also added psychological factors, such as green skepticism, to fill the perception-behavior gap from previous studies and extend the protection-motivation theory. Some managerial implications will be proposed for plastic companies in Vietnam to switch their production toward biodegradable plastic bags. Besides, consumers will also be given guidance and encouragement to use these products through integrated marketing communication strategies. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-08-03-04 Full Text: PDF
Measuring Sustainability: A Validation Study of a Triple Bottom Line (TBL) Scale in Portugal
Authors: Sabino Ana , Moreira Ana , Cesário Francisco , Pinto Coelho Mafalda 
Published: July 2024

Studies on sustainability using the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) approach are increasing. However, there is no consensus on how to measure the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainability based on TBL theory. Despite numerous proposals, there is a lack of integrated measures covering all three dimensions simultaneously and having a human-centered approach. This gap is particularly pronounced in Portugal, where no existing scale adequately meets the needs of academics and practitioners. To address this challenge, and based on existing measures that encompass the nature of each TBL dimension, we present and validate a 15-item TBL scale, with 5 items per dimension: economic, social, and environmental. To test convergent validity and contribute to the discussion regarding the links between TBL and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), we also analyzed the association between each TBL dimension and each CSR dimension. Using a sample of 635 participants, divided into two independent sub-samples, we conducted comprehensive statistical analyses, including exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, reliability testing, and convergent and discriminant analysis, followed by invariance testing of the TBL scale. The results suggest that the proposed measure fits the Portuguese sample, and all psychometric results are robust. We also establish the links between the three dimensions of TBL—economic, social, and environmental—and the CSR dimensions, as convergent validity is verified between social TBL and employees' CSR practices. We discuss theoretical and practical implications, as well as limitations and suggestions for future research. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-08-03-06 Full Text: PDF
