Authors: Imasuen Osasere Festus , Okoro Edesiri Godsday 
Published: June 2024

Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to examine the effects of directors’ observable characteristics on market-level financial performance in Nigeria and South Africa via ex-post-facto research design.

Method: Cross-sectional data of one hundred and eleven (111) and one hundred and sixty-four (164) financial and non-financial firms were sampled in Nigeria and South Africa respectively from 2012-2021. Directors' observable characteristics used were board independence and gender diversity, and market-level performance indicators (Tobin’s Q and market-to-book-value ratios) Data were obtained from the annual reports and accounts of publicly quoted firms on Nigerian and Johannesburg Stock Exchanges. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive, post-estimation and inferential statistical tools.

Results and Conclusion: The results of fixed and random effects regression revealed that while directors’ observable characteristics had significant effects on Tobin’s Q (Wald=39.87; Prob.=0.0000<0.05), an insignificant effects was found for market-to-book value (Wald = 6.27; Prob.=0.3933> 0.05) of firms in Nigeria and South. On the basis of the findings, it is recommended that management should engage in economic or business activities by way of investing more in capital assets or bonds to generate a high Tobin’s Q value for firms in Nigeria and South Africa
Implication of the Research: The implication is that directors’ observable characteristics can serve as a means of enhancing Tobin’s Q except market-to-book value

Originality/Value: There is the need for future researches to validate the model employed by using the identified directors’ observable characteristics which were not used in this current study.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The primary objective of this study was to delve into the intricate dynamics of how mindfulness and employee creativity collectively influence employee performance.

Method: The research design encapsulated the exploration of three direct relationships and a nuanced investigation of an indirect relationship elucidated through the mediating role of employee creativity between mindfulness and employee performance. Four distinct research hypotheses were rigorously tested, drawing upon data collected from an extensive survey involving two hundred and fifty-two employees within a prominent financial company in Indonesia. The survey instrument was administered through online questionnaires in two months, and the subsequent data analysis was facilitated through the employment of structural equation modeling and analysis of moment structures, a statistical program renowned for its efficacy in unraveling complex relationships within data structures.

Result and conlusion: This study has confirmed the interplay among these variables integrally. The outcomes gleaned from this empirical exploration unveiled that mindfulness exerts a discernible influence on employee performance, manifesting through both direct and indirect pathways mediated by the critical intermediary role of employee creativity.

Originality: This nuanced finding accentuated the existence of partial mediating roles, presenting a substantial contribution to the literature by addressing the incongruities observed in previous studies pertaining to the intricate interplay among mindfulness, employee creativity, and employee performance. The robustness of the tested model is underscored by its ability to reconcile and provide insights into the seemingly inconsistent results reported in the extant literature.

Credibilidade jornalística em debate
Authors: Ito Liliane 
Published: June 2024

A circulação de conteúdos falsos, com o objetivo de enganar a população e manipular a opinião pública, não é a única estratégia do modelo comunicacional desinformador. A erosão da confiabilidade de instituições tradicionais do saber – seja científico, histórico ou mesmo oriundo do jornalismo – deve ser encarada também como arma relevante para desinformar. Neste artigo, a partir da revisão bibliográfica e documental, pretende-se contribuir para as discussões teóricas sobre o acionamento da credibilidade jornalística em um patamar de desinformação. Defende-se que tal atributo é ora valorizado, ora corroído de maneiras sistematizadas e intencionais, como parte de uma estratégia comunicacional desinformadora abarcada pela pós-verdade. Como resultados, elencam-se duas estratégias desinformadoras nas quais a credibilidade jornalística é tratada de forma antagônica – como característica dissimulada ou como qualidade instituída e desejada.
Bye Bye Barcelona: imagens e narrativas sobre o Turismo Urbano e a Hospitalidade
Authors: Ramos Silvana Pirillo 
Published: June 2024

De forma pioneira e com ampla repercussão nas mídias, o documentário Bye Bye Barcelona da voz, por meio do depoimento de líderes de associações de moradores, professores, escritores, artistas e comerciantes, a problemática do overturismo e denuncia as fragilidades do setor turístico, desconstruindo o modelo Barcelona. Este artigo faz uma análise do documentário a fim de identificar os impactos do turismo massivo na vida cotidiana e dimensionar a hospitalidade pública em Barcelona. A pesquisa é exploratória, de abordagem qualitativa, utilizando-se da análise de conteúdo com interpretações subsidiadas pela revisão de literatura sobre impactos do turismo, cidade e hospitalidade. Conclui que aspectos da hospitalidade na cidade como acessibilidade, mobilidade, legibilidade e identidade estão comprometidos por uma espécie de desmanche do tecido urbano promovido pelas políticas neoliberais. O cidadão passou a ocupar, junto ao turista, lugar de consumidor da cidade, perdendo seu direito a ela como partícipe ativo na produção social e política. Por meio de protestos e mobilizações os moradores revelam consciência do processo de expropriação da cidade a que estão submetidos e requalificam suas demandas na agenda urbana, não contra o turismo e nem contra o turista, mas por um outro modelo de cidade turística sustentável.
