Authors: Schiavone Ana Beatriz Prado , Komatsu André Vilela , Bazon Marina Rezende 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
This study aims to examine the association between self-control, family practices and delinquent behaviors among Brazilian adolescents using a person-centered approach.

Design/methodology/approach
Following the International Self-Reported Delinquency Study standardized protocol, data came from 1,909 adolescents between 13 and 17 years (female = 49.6%, male = 48.3%, non-binary = 2.1% and mean age = 15) attending public and private schools of two cities in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Participants were grouped according to their scores in impulsivity and sensation-seeking. Clusters were characterized and compared regarding sociodemographic variables, family aspects (family bond and parental monitoring) and self-reported delinquency.

Findings
Analysis resulted in four groups characterized by: low impulsivity and low sensation-seeking (High Self-controlled; n = 564), high impulsivity and high sensation-seeking (Low Self-controlled; n = 378), high impulsivity and low sensation-seeking (Impulsives; n = 452) and low impulsivity and high sensation-seeking (Sensation-seekers; n = 475). High Self-controlled scored higher in family bonding and parental monitoring than the other three groups. Low Self-controlled reported the highest offense rates, followed by the Sensation-seekers, who scored more than Low Self-controlled and Impulsives.

Originality/value
This person-centered approach reveals individual differences in self-control, highlighting subgroup homogeneity and associations with parenting practices and delinquency. The findings of this study contribute theoretically to refining the General Theory of Crime and practically by guiding targeted interventions. This study underscores that sensation-seeking may influence delinquency more than impulsivity and suggests parental monitoring and bonding are key in shaping adolescents’ self-control.

Published: February 2025

Purpose
This study aims to explore the factors affecting sustainable workplace remodeling in Saudi Arabia.

Design/methodology/approach
A literature review was conducted, resulting in 30 factors grouped into five categories. A questionnaire was designed and tested, and stakeholders including architects/engineers (A/Es), contractors and facilities managers were surveyed to evaluate the importance of these factors. The responses were analyzed to determine the relative importance index (RII), importance rating (IR) and ranking of each factor.

Findings
All 30 factors were evaluated as “Extremely Important” and “Very Important” in the collective assessment conducted by the three stakeholder categories. The findings revealed that the key factors, unanimously highlighted by all groups, include “The highest-ranking factors Constrained budget for the project”, “Availability of an experienced contractor in the remodeling field”, “Compliance with safety codes and standards”, “Underestimation of project complexity” and “Availability of specifications”.

Research limitations/implications
The study presents an approach for assessing stakeholder consensus, using the RII and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient to analyze the results. This approach aims to improve understanding of how various stakeholders influence and perceive sustainability in construction projects.

Practical implications
The study offers guidance for various stakeholders, to integrate sustainable practices into their operations. It emphasizes communication, implementing cost-efficient designs and ensuring compliance with sustainability standards to enhance the longevity and efficiency of remodeled workplaces.

Originality/value
The study adds to the current knowledge base by providing insights into sustainable practices of workplace remodeling specific to the context of Saudi Arabia.
Developing a process model for inspection management of building facilities using financial analysis
Authors: Amani Nima 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to develop a process model for inspection management of building facilities based on a financial analysis process using a facilities assessment index (FAI).

Design/methodology/approach
A piping system is surveyed using financial analysis to implement optimal inspection time and cost based on limited costs. Inspection technical sheets were sent to 30 installation consultant companies in Iran. Financial sheets were sent to hotel financial managers. There are three main stages in the development of the building facilities inspection management process: Stage I: gathering data, Stage II: developing a draft process model, Stage III: testing the process model and Stage IV: verification of process model. The research applies decision-making techniques to resolve various issues using cost data.

Findings
By analyzing historical data and using a process model, the author determined that the most cost-effective approach is to inspect and repair pipes when the FAI (condition index [CI]) reaches 70. At this point, the saving to investment ratio (SIR) is 1.69, indicating substantial economic benefits. For pipes with a CI below 55, replacement is recommended due to lower economic benefits from repair. When the CI reaches 40, the pipes are considered to be at the end of their useful life, and replacement is the optimal course of action. The process model was rigorously tested to ensure its accuracy in predicting future scenarios. By comparing model predictions with historical data and established solutions, the author found a strong correlation between the highest SIR and a CI of 70 in both historical and predictive data analyses. This consistency suggests that the model can effectively predict optimal inspection timing for the wastewater system.

Originality/value
Any decision-making is based on the existing cost and resource allocation of the buildings in inspection activities. This issue is very important: how to allocate the limited costs available for facilities inspection to achieve the best return on spending. This method helps building managers and engineers make better decisions to reduce inspection costs and increase facilities’ service life.

How to measure management innovation for a human-centric organization
Authors: D’Amato Vittorio , Tosca Elena , Ricciardelli Alessandra , Tuporini Luca 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
Measurement of the process of management innovation (MI) is critical for both practitioners and academics, yet the literature is scarce and characterized by a diversity of approaches and practices that can be confusing and contradictory. This study aims to create a novel instrument for assessing MI, achieved through a critical analysis of the literature focused primarily on identifying the dimensions of MI and, second, the scales used for their measurement.

Design/methodology/approach
Using survey data from 415 managers of the service sector from different companies in Italy, the validation of the MIINDEX was conducted. Internal consistency analysis (Cronbach’s alpha) was used to test the statistical reliability of the tool.

Findings
The paper offers a review of key publications on the proposed dimensions of MI and the scales used for their measurement that have been published in research journals within the past two decades. The validation of the index was deemed satisfactory. These research results lead to several conclusions that enrich the current academic debate about MI and contribute to managerial and business practices.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper originally proposed a clear and holistic framework covering the range of activities needed to capture all the nuances of MI.
Information transfers from peer firms’ analyst revisions
Authors: Chen Li , Shane Philip , Wu Xiaohua (Stephen) , Zhang Yuyu 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
This study aims to examine whether analyst revisions on peer firms have information transfer effects on focal firms in the same industry, and whether firm-level rivalry and common analysts affect such information transfer.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses a large sample of US data on listed companies and financial analysts from 1996 to 2021. The authors use ordinary least squares and a short-window event study to test the formulated hypotheses.

Findings
The findings show that, on average, focal firm stock returns are positively associated with peer firms’ analyst revisions. However, information transfers from nonrival (rival) peer firms’ analyst revisions are positive (negative). Revisions by common analysts covering both peer and focal firms drive more positive transfers. Furthermore, peer firms’ revisions by common analysts, compared to noncommon analysts, trigger more reactions from focal firm analysts, consistent with investor reactions. Finally, common analyst coverage raises short-term return synchronicity around revisions.

Originality/value
This study adds to the information transfer literature by examining the information released by noncorporate entities (i.e. analyst revisions). It also extends our understanding of the roles of analysts, particularly the peer effect and common analysts, in the capital markets. Findings on analyst-driven return interdependencies among peers may interest investors in portfolio construction.
Mental health and play: a positive autoethnographic case study of René Proyer
Authors: Proyer René , Gonot-Schoupinsky Freda 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to invite Professor René Proyer, a leading positive psychologist and authority on play, to tell his story, share highlights from his research and insights into playfulness, mental health and positive psychology.

Design/methodology/approach
A positive autoethnographic case study approach is used to enable Professor Proyer to narrate his story while also addressing topics within a Q&A format.

Findings
Play is important for childhood, adolescent and adult mental health and well-being. Although distinct from one another, humor, laughter, creativity and playfulness exhibit overlap. Proyer’s research has even shown that just reflecting on playful moments can increase happiness and alleviate depression.

Research limitations/implications
The experiences, perspectives and insight of one person are narrated in this case study and these cannot be generalized.

Practical implications
Play can be widely defined, and there are many ways to enjoy it freely and at no cost, making it highly accessible and practical to support mental health and well-being. By seeking out and creating playful situations, we can embrace playfulness as adults.

Social implications
As Proyer relays by quoting Christopher Peterson, one definition of positive psychology is “Other people matter”. By finding ways to playfully interact with others, we can find immediate enjoyment but also build and strengthen relationships and support our health and well-being, and that of others too.

Originality/value
Professor Proyer is a positive psychologist and authority on playfulness. Here, he shares with us multiple insights in the areas of mental health and play.
Redenomination risk connectedness among European sovereign bond markets
Authors: Chebbi Tarek , AlGhazali Abdullah Mohammed , Mensi Walid , Kang Sanghoon 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the interconnectedness of redenomination risk premiums across the four main European sovereign bond markets (France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands).

Design/methodology/approach
The authors used the time-varying parameter vector autoregressions method to achieve the objectives.

Findings
This study reveals that the redenomination risk connectedness throughout the Euro area sovereign bond markets is dynamic and exhibits remarkable variations across various crisis episodes, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia–Ukraine tensions. In addition, the analysis uncovers significant bilateral connections between countries. Furthermore, the research finds that spillovers from the US dollar redenomination premium (USDRP) are greater than those from the euro redenomination premium (ERP) and currency redenomination premium (CRP). However, during the Ukraine–Russia tensions, the connectedness between the USDRP is stronger than that between the ERP and CRP. On the other hand, the connectedness between CRP is higher than the USDRP and ERP during the COVID-19 pandemic. Importantly, this study demonstrates that the four countries play a role as both shock transmitters and receivers, switching alternatively.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the related literature by exploring the redenomination risk connectedness throughout the Euro area sovereign bond markets. Specifically, we rely on the USDRP, the ERP and CRP. These findings have serious implications for both portfolio risk management.
Performance investigation of dual stator electrically excited flux switching machine
Authors: Khan Wasiullah , Khan Faisal , Ullah Wasiq , Akuru U. Bola , Zhao Wenxiang 
Published: February 2025

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the non-overlapped winding dual stator electrically excited flux switching machine (NOW-DSEEFSM) for wind energy applications. To reduce the cost of conventional design, several rotor pole topologies of low cost have been examined, and finally, an optimum design is compared with conventional design.

Design/methodology/approach
In this paper, NOW-DSEEFSM is designed, optimized, evaluated and compared with different rotor poles. Initially, the electromagnetic performance of the proposed machine is investigated on the 8, 10, 14, 20 and 22 rotor poles based on the finite element analysis by using JMAG software. From the initial results, 8-, 10- and 14-pole machines are further selected for parametric optimization to enhance the electromagnetic performance. After optimization, the result indicates that the machine with 14 poles can be considered as the overall most appropriate design for the proposed wind generator. Furthermore, analysis has been used on different armature and field current densities to study the effect on electromagnetic performances. Finally, a comparison is performed between the proposed machine and the conventional machine.

Findings
In the proposed machine to reduce the copper losses and overhang effect, the NOW topology is used against the well-known overlap winding and provides excellent flux regulation capability due to the existence of field winding, and to obtain high torque and power densities, the presented machine has two stator units and a single robust rotor.

Originality/value
The dual stator flux switching machine with NOW is designed, evaluated and compared to get high torque and power densities.

Published: February 2025

AbstractBackgroundThere are few realistic and accessible laparoscopic pyeloplasty training models. The aim of this study is to develop a functional training model through user‐centered design that depicts the pathological features of pelvicoureteric junction obstruction (PUJO).MethodsRealistic patient‐matched anatomical models of the kidney, renal pelvis, and ureter were created based on segmentations of computed tomography (CT) scans of a paediatric patient with PUJO who underwent laparoscopic pyeloplasty. Three training model versions (polyjet, resin, and silicone) were produced, tested, and published. Training model testing was conducted by consultant surgeons (n = 14), training surgeons (n = 5), and medical students (n = 8). Face validity testing was conducted to assess realism and usefulness of training models on a 10‐point Likert‐type scale. Training model accessibility was assessed using equipment availability and cost to set‐up and produce as proxy measures.ResultsParticipants significantly preferred polyjet and silicone models over resin models for overall rating (6.9 ± 2.3, 7.9 ± 1.1, and 5.0 ± 1.8) respectively; and usefulness in trainees (7.6 ± 2.1, 8.6 ± 0.9, and 5.0 ± 3.1) respectively. While both the polyjet and silicone models were found to be realistic and useful, the silicone model is considered more accessible due to the ready availability of the manufacturing equipment and materials and around 300‐fold reduction in cost compared to polyjet.ConclusionsA surgeon‐assessed realistic and useful pyeloplasty surgical training model was developed here which enables surgical practice on challenging small anatomical features. The comparatively low cost and accessibility of the silicone model can enable trainees to practice the procedure depicting the realistic pathological features in environments with limited resources.

Published: February 2025

AbstractObjectivesThe aim of the paper was to describe referrals to a UK school‐based mental health service for children and adolescents.MethodsChildren and young people (CYP) (N = 485, aged 4–18) were referred to two Mental Health Support Team sites in the South of England in 2021, for CBT‐informed interventions for mild‐to‐moderate anxiety and depression. Child and parent reported outcome measures were completed pre‐intervention, including measures of symptom severity and impact.ResultsReferrals consisted of 61% female, 57% secondary school age (12–18 years old) and 81% White British. Children of secondary school age self‐reported significantly higher levels of anxiety (p = .003) and depression (p < .001) than children of primary age. Females self‐reported significantly higher levels of anxiety (p < .001) and depression (p < .001) than males. The majority of CYP self‐reported below or borderline threshold anxiety, depression and overall internalizing symptoms. The majority of caregiver‐reported CYP difficulties met the clinical threshold for anxiety and overall internalizing symptoms, but not depression.ConclusionsThe findings have direct relevance to the transformation and delivery of school‐based public mental health services for children and adolescents. There is a need to collect routine data from other services to assess the broader needs of CYP referred for low intensity early interventions across regions.

ABSTRACTFamilial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant syndrome associated with germline mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. Patients eventually may develop colorectal cancer (CRC) if they are not diagnosed in the early stages. Dysbiosis is an important contributing factor to the complex events in carcinogenesis, which are poorly understood. First, 25 tissue samples from 13 patients with FAP at Songklanagarind Hospital were classified as nontumor (n = 18) or tumor tissues (n = 7). Following isolation, 5 DNA samples of insufficient quantity and quality were excluded. The 16S rRNA gene targeting the V3–V4 region was sequenced, and the sequencing data were analyzed using bioinformatics tools. The abundance of Romboutsia and Clostridium genera and Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 was significantly higher in tumor tissues than that in nonneoplastic samples. Furthermore, several bacterial genera, including Acinetobacter, Paracoccus, Brevundimonas, and Brevibacillus, were predominant or key taxa in nontumor mucosae. We found an alteration in the mucosa‐associated microbiota composition of southern Thai patients that may have contributed to the tumorigenesis of FAP. These findings may improve the knowledge of the potential roles of microbes in FAP and aid the development of preventive measures for cancer development and progression through modulation of the gut microbiota.

Authors: Santifort Koen , Plonek Marta , Görig Christiane , Huver Ingrid 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTObjectiveChromatic (colorimetric) pupillary light reflexes (cPLR) are reportedly useful in canine neuro‐ophthalmology to differentiate sudden acquired retinal degeneration syndrome (SARDS) from optic pathway disease (neurological disorders) causing acute blindness. We report two canine cases with cPLR test results reported to be consistent with primary retinal disease that were subsequently diagnosed with optic pathway (CNS) disease.Animals studiedA 7‐year‐old Dachshund and a 7‐year‐old Weimaraner were presented for acute blindness.Procedures and resultsBoth dogs failed obstacle tests, showed absent menace responses, bilateral mydriasis, and absent PLRs with white light in both eyes. The cPLRs were tested using a BPI‐50 Precision Illuminator (Retinographics Inc., USA). Both dogs exhibited no PLR with red light (660 nm), and brisk though incomplete pupillary constriction with blue light (465 nm) at 200 kcd/m2. Electroretinograms (ERG) of both eyes were normal in both dogs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed a left‐sided cystic extra‐axial mass (suspected meningioma) in the rostral cranial fossa in the Dachshund and a lesion affecting the rostral bones of the skull base and optic nerves in the Weimaraner (confirmed lymphoma).ConclusionsThese are the first two reported canine cases with acute, bilateral amaurosis due to optic pathway disease with present blue light‐cPLR.
