Non-tariff and tariff impediments affecting spatial competition between the United States and Brazil for soybean shipments to China
Authors: Wilson William , Bullock David W 
Published: July 2024

PurposeThis study’s purpose is to analyze the effects of trade interventions and non-tariff impediments between the exporters (the United States and Brazil) and China for soybean trade.Design/methodology/approachA spatial model is developed and solved using an optimized Monte Carlo simulation (OMCS) and is used to minimize the costs of supplying soybeans to China. The costs included the origin basis; transportation to ports, including trucks, railways and barges; demurrage; and ocean freight. The sum of these charges determines the delivered costs to China from each origin. Most variables are random and correlated. Time-series distributions are based on historical data. Production and exports are highly seasonal and important.FindingsBase-case flows are highly seasonal, are risky and reflect actual trade. Sensitivities illustrate the effects of mitigating the quality differentials and interpreting a term of the Phase One agreement that purchases would be made so long as the prices are competitive. The results are also used to illustrate the influence of diversifying from the United States as a supplier. Finally, the policy implications are discussed.Research limitations/implicationsRemoving the quality discounts for US soybeans raises the US market share by 9%. These results also illustrate that diversification of supply sources is important for the importing country. Indeed, if China were to pursue less diversification import costs and/or risks would escalate. Hence, these results suggest that diversification is an appealing element of an import strategy. The results suggest a large distribution of prices and costs, particularly in Brazil. On average, the United States is most likely to be competitive for only a few months of the year, and the results are highly seasonal.Practical implicationsCompetition in supplying soybean to China is extremely competitive and the underlying factors impacting spatial competition are risk, correlated and spatially dependent. In addition to these, there are quality differences, and there are trade policies and strategies that affect competition. The empirical model and results illustrate the intensity of competition in this market as well the impacts of these non-tariff barriers and trade strategies in this market.Social implicationsImportant policies have been taken and continue to be under review regarding competition and trade among these countries. These results illustrate the impacts of these policies on market shares and competition.Originality/valueThis problem is important to the world soybean trading sector, and the methodology captures important seasonal and random variables that affect trade flows. The OMCS model is appropriate for this problem and has only been used minimally in the recent literature about commodity trade.
Evaluation of AI content generation tools for verification of academic integrity in higher education
Authors: Saqib Muhammad Bilal , Zia Saba 
Published: July 2024

PurposeThe notion of using a generative artificial intelligence (AI) engine for text composition has gained excessive popularity among students, educators and researchers, following the introduction of ChatGPT. However, this has added another dimension to the daunting task of verifying originality in academic writing. Consequently, the market for detecting artificially generated content has seen a mushroom growth of tools that claim to be more than 90% accurate in sensing artificially written content.Design/methodology/approachThis research evaluates the capabilities of some highly mentioned AI detection tools to separate reality from their hyperbolic claims. For this purpose, eight AI engines have been tested on four different types of data, which cover the different ways of using ChatGPT. These types are Original, Paraphrased by AI, 100% AI generated and 100% AI generated with Contextual Information. The AI index recorded by these tools against the datasets was evaluated as an indicator of their performance.FindingsThe resulting figures of cumulative mean validate that these tools excel at identifying human generated content (1.71% AI content) and perform reasonably well in labelling AI generated content (76.85% AI content). However, they are perplexed by the scenarios where the content is either paraphrased by the AI (39.42% AI content) or generated by giving a precise context for the output (60.1% AI content).Originality/valueThis paper evaluates different services for the detection of AI-generated content to verify academic integrity in research work and higher education and provides new insights into their performance.
Innovative SMEs in Italy. Explaining profitability patterns in inner areas
Authors: Aiello Francesco , Errico Lucia , Rondinella Sandro 
Published: July 2024

PurposeThis paper investigates whether and to what extent operating in inner areas affects the profitability of innovative Italian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) over 2012–2018.Design/methodology/approachGuided by the National Strategy for Inner Areas and the “Investment Compact,” this study distinguishes between inner and core innovative SMEs. It employs various econometric models to estimate a regression for the return on assets of SMEs, differentiating between firms operating in inner and non-inner areas of northwest, northeast, centre and south Italy.FindingsFindings reveal that innovative SMEs in inner areas generally exhibit lower profitability compared to those in non-inner municipalities. However, huge heterogeneity in results is observed across the country. Specifically, innovative SMEs in the inner areas of the south register lower profitability than those operating in non-inner zones. Conversely, innovative SMEs located in the inner municipalities of northwest and northeast Italy show higher profitability than their peers in non-inner areas. The results imply that targeted policies for inner areas are crucial. However, due to the diversity of local impacts, a differentiated approach, depending on the geographic context, is necessary.Originality/valueThe study aims to explore the relationship between inner areas and the performance of innovative SMEs in Italy. More precisely, it examines the effect of operating in a municipality located within an inner area on the profitability of innovative SMEs. This issue has been overlooked in existing literature. Importantly, we aim to determine whether there is a heterogeneous impact based on geographical localisation, specifically in the Northwest, the Northeast, the Centre and the South of the country. Therefore, this paper contributes to the literature by investigating the factors influencing the performance of innovative SMEs and suggesting new policy recommendations for developing inner areas in Italy.
A one-year prospective study of organizational justice and work attitudes: an extended job demands-resources model
Authors: HO Henry C.Y. 
Published: July 2024

PurposeOrganizational justice plays a crucial role in shaping employee work attitudes. This study examines how and when procedural, distributive, interpersonal, and informational justice affects employees’ affective commitment and work engagement. The research is grounded in an extended job demands-resources model, incorporating the social identity theory. The integrated model hypothesizes that all four dimensions of organizational justice positively influence employees’ commitment and engagement by fostering organizational identification. Furthermore, it is posited that this cognitive-affective process is particularly significant when employees face high job demands, as opposed to low job demands.Design/methodology/approachA three-wave prospective study was conducted with a sample of 400 employees in the social and personal services industry in Hong Kong, China. Data were collected at baseline, three months, and one year.FindingsThe findings support the hypothesized conditional indirect associations between organizational justice (procedural, distributive, and informational justice) and both measures of work attitudes.Practical implicationsThis study highlights the importance of fair, ethical, and just procedures, resource distribution, and communication in organizations, particularly in stressful industries. Employers and supervisors are encouraged to adopt employee-oriented management practices, foster positive leader-member exchange relationships, and acknowledge and reward valuable contributions.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the existing literature on organizational justice by elucidating its underlying cognitive-affective mechanism and identifying the boundary conditions under which it operates.

Authors: Okafor Francis Onyemaechi 
Published: July 2024

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to draw attention to inherent barriers to help-seeking, particularly those caused by increased globalization and diversification of our societies. It explores the underutilization of mental health resources by ethnic minority groups while highlighting some alternative treatment approaches with growing evidence bases.

Design/methodology/approach
Using a literature review and comparative analysis of relevant studies, the author makes a case for increased adoption of alternative therapies; citing the evidence base for the most promising treatments which include exercise therapy, mindfulness-based therapies, yoga for depression and spirituality-based therapies. It further compares the efficacy and advantages of these therapies with common mainstream therapies.

Findings
In comparison, some alternative treatment modules are just as effective, if not better than traditional, mainstream therapies for certain ailments. In conclusion, the paper calls for increased research on the efficacy of alternative therapies; and beckons service providers to explore the potential for these therapies to bridge the gap in treatment towards a more inclusive and client-centered mental health care.

Originality/value
The author provides a plethora of thought-provoking ideas in this article. For instance, he tendered a different outlook on barriers to treatment by differentiating between accessibility challenges versus underutilization. He also highlights the critical impact of Eurocentrism as a contributor to barriers to treatment utilization.

These co-authors bring invaluable first-hand insights that both critique and enrich our understanding, enabling them to actively shape the discourse and direction of future POR research. This collaboration ensures the development of more relevant, grounded and transformative approaches in mental health research, thereby enhancing the pertinence and impact of these findings in real-world settings.
Research on torque measurement in flight test for all-moving horizontal tail based on spiral driver
Authors: Min Meng , Xian Jiang , Tenglong Gao , Yufei Ping 
Published: July 2024

PurposeTorque is one of the main loads acting on the aircraft wing, the horizontal tail and the vertical tail. In flight load measurement, due to the significant influence of the bending moment and the shear force on the strain gauge, the accuracy of torque measurement is usually low. Therefore, aircraft torque measurement is difficult. Based on the characteristics of a certain type of horizontal tail, a measurement method for the torque with high accuracy was proposed in this paper.Design/methodology/approachA new simplified torque measurement method for the all-moving horizontal tail was proposed based on the spiral driver. The feasibility of the method and key points of the tests were analyzed and studied through a virtual load calibration test.FindingsBased on the results of the real load calibration test, the torque load equation with high accuracy was established, and the torque measurement was achieved in load flight tests.Research limitations/implicationsHowever, the proposed method is based on the structure of the spiral driver. If there is generally no spiral driver at the aircraft wings and vertical tails, then the appropriate torque measurement method needs to be derived according to the specific object.Originality/valueThe research in this paper provides a new idea for the torque measurement of aircraft structures, which can be used for the torque measurement of subsequent aircraft types.
Music festivals research in the hospitality and tourism industry: a bibliometric analysis
Authors: Kement Uzeyir 
Published: July 2024

PurposeMusic festivals are categorized as event management in the hospitality and tourism (H&T) industry. Additionally, music festivals or events are a continuous phenomenon in the context of the hospitality and tourism industry. In this study, a bibliometric approach was proposed to examine research that addresses both the H&T industry and music festivals.Design/methodology/approachA total of 462 studies covering the years 1981–2024 were retrieved from the Scopus database. The study analyzed keywords, institutions, sources, countries, and titles. During the analysis phase, descriptive analysis, clustering, thematic mapping, and relationship networks were employed using Bibliometrix and VOSviewer analysis programs.FindingsAs a result of the analysis, the most frequently used keywords were “tourism” and “festival,” with the most prolific author being Kruger M., the most productive country being the United States of America, and the leading journal being Event Management. Seven different clusters emerged from the networking of keywords. In the thematic map, the motor themes were music festivals, experience, social media, and co-creation. The basic themes were festival, music, tourism, event management, market segmentation, and music tourism. The emerging or declining themes were culture, music events, and COVID-19. Finally, the niche theme was entrepreneurship.Research limitations/implicationsIt’s noted that this research solely utilized the Scopus database and publications such as chemistry and mathematics, were excluded. The findings were limited to bibliometric analysis, and future studies could include content and thematic evaluations.Social implicationsThe research is useful in understanding how music festivals socially direct tourists and their future perspectives. On the other hand, determining the global status of scientific publications regarding music festivals with high social and economic impact is important for proper planning and sustainability of such events.Originality/valueMusic festivals are an important type of event in terms of mobility in the H&T industry. In this respect, it is in a state of change and development over the years. This research examined publications about music festivals in the H&T industry from the past to the present with a bibliometric approach. In this way, the development of publications produced on the relevant subject was revealed.
The Decision Relevance of Loan Fair Values for Depositors
Authors: CHEN QI , VASHISHTHA RAHUL , WANG SHUYAN 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACTUsing a large sample of U.S. commercial banks from 1994 to 2019, we find that loan fair values are highly relevant for depositor decision making. A one‐standard‐deviation decrease in loan fair value performance is associated with more than 10% lower uninsured deposit flows than the sample average. Information in fair values about loan credit quality is quite limited and cannot account for the bulk of the relevance. Instead, consistent with models of bank fragility, the relevance seems to stem more from information on the decline in loan liquidation values, triggering panic‐based withdrawals motivated by (self‐fulfilling) expectations of withdrawals by other depositors. The findings inform the cost‐benefit tradeoff of reporting loan fair values.
Navigating competing tensions: A qualitative study of experiences and perceptions of leadership among emergency medicine doctors
Authors: Rayner Suzanne , Richards Hayden , Lee Georgie B , Lee Elleanor , Rixon Andrew 
Published: July 2024

AbstractObjectivesEmergency medicine (EM) doctors are often required to manage a diverse set of complex challenges; navigating direct patient care, systemic issues and inter‐professional interactions. Leadership is well recognised as crucial in optimising both the delivery and the quality of patient care. There is a clear need to gain greater understanding of the reality of EM leadership through exploring doctors' experience and perception of leadership in EM, yet there is a paucity of research focusing on this area. The objective of the present study was to explore the research question: ‘What are the experiences and perceptions of leadership by EM doctors?’MethodsThis single‐site qualitative study was undertaken using semi‐structured in‐depth individual interviews to collect data. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed and de‐identified. Reflexive thematic analysis was performed by the research team with the aid of DelveTool software.ResultsOur sample included nine participants incorporating consultants and registrars. Three major themes were identified: (i) situational tensions, (ii) relational tensions and (iii) leadership style tensions. Each of these was further explored with subthemes discussed separately.ConclusionsLeadership within the ED is complex and multifaceted, with doctors required to navigate many competing tensions. The present study highlighted key areas for future leadership development, including situational awareness, emotional intelligence and a fluid approach to leadership styles. The present study provides an important step towards enhancing the development of targeted leadership training for EM doctors.
move2: R package for processing movement data
Authors: Kranstauber Bart , Safi Kamran , Scharf Anne K. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Studying animal movement is key to understanding ecological processes and studying the impacts of global change. The pivotal importance of collecting movement data drives technological development, and as a consequence, movement trajectories are gathered at unprecedented rates.

For the analysis of the ever‐increasing volume of movement tracks, software packages that bridge between data storage, analysis and visualization are crucial. To facilitate analysis, it is key that the metadata, as well as projections, measurements units, and attributes for the track as a whole and auxiliary sensor measurements, are retained. At the same time, the software needs to be flexible enough to accommodate data from the multitude of different sources and tracking technologies.

Here, we present the newly developed R package move2 that facilitates import, manipulation, analysis and visualization of movement tracks. The package enables the usage of new programming techniques developed in recent years and has been developed based on the experiences made in the past decade with the move package.

The package is tightly integrated into the Movebank ‘ecosystem’ by being a key data format in MoveApps and providing a direct download option from movebank. However, move2 allows the integration of movement data sources of any provenance, providing a generic entry point for movement data analysis in R.

AbstractBackgroundAntigen‐specific memory B cells play a key role in the induction of desensitization and remission to food allergens in oral immunotherapy and in the development of natural tolerance (NT). Here, we characterized milk allergen Bos d 9‐specific B cells in oral allergen‐specific immunotherapy (OIT) and in children spontaneously outgrowing cow's milk allergy (CMA) due to NT.MethodsSamples from children with CMA who received oral OIT (before, during, and after), children who naturally outgrew CMA (NT), and healthy individuals were received from Stanford biobank. Bos d 9‐specific B cells were isolated by flow cytometry and RNA‐sequencing was performed. Protein profile of Bos d 9‐specific B cells was analyzed by proximity extension assay.ResultsIncreased frequencies of circulating milk allergen Bos d 9‐specific B cells were observed after OIT and NT. Milk‐desensitized subjects showed the partial acquisition of phenotypic features of remission, suggesting that desensitization is an earlier stage of remission. Within these most significantly expressed genes, IL10RA and TGFB3 were highly expressed in desensitized OIT patients. In both the remission and desensitized groups, B cell activation‐, Breg cells‐, BCR‐signaling‐, and differentiation‐related genes were upregulated. In NT, pathways associated with innate immunity characteristics, development of marginal zone B cells, and a more established suppressor function of B cells prevail that may play a role in long‐term tolerance. The analyses of immunoglobulin heavy chain genes in specific B cells demonstrated that IgG2 in desensitization, IgG1, IgA1, IgA2, IgG4, and IgD in remission, and IgD in NT were predominating. Secreted proteins from allergen‐specific B cells revealed higher levels of regulatory cytokines, IL‐10, and TGF‐β after OIT and NT.ConclusionAllergen‐specific B cells are essential elements in regulating food allergy towards remission in OIT‐received and naturally resolved individuals.
