Case overview/synopsis
The decision-based case explores the challenges faced by Siddhartha Das, the founder of FoodWise Pvt Ltd, a multi-cuisine restaurant based out of Kolkata, India. Das initially launched an online Bengali meal delivery service in 2017, which successfully expanded into an offline multi-cuisine retail outlet by October 2019. However, the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a significant blow to his business, preventing it from achieving profitability. The case is set in July 2021, where Das reviews his half-yearly performance report recognizing the imminent risks threatening his food venture unless immediate changes are undertaken. The multi-cuisine nature of his restaurant business necessitated higher expenditures on specialty chefs and costly vendors to maintain premium food quality. Faced with a dilemma, Das must decide whether to continue with the current multi-cuisine model and find ways to manage costs or to evaluate the performance of his six cuisines and consider switching his venture to a specialized cuisine restaurant. The case invites students to assist Das in making a data-driven strategic decision by using Menu Engineering and exploratory data analysis techniques.

Exploring the VIA classification of human strengths and virtues using topic modeling
Authors: Gegač Josip , Greb Nikola , Bagić Babac Marina 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore the Values in Action (VIA) classification of human strengths and virtues by using unsupervised machine learning techniques, specifically topic modeling algorithms, on a sample of X (formerly known as Twitter) posts. This study aims to investigate if and to what extent the structure of posts with the highest positive sentiment, as determined by topic modeling algorithms, aligns with the structure of the VIA classification.

Design/methodology/approach
This study uses a sample of X posts as the data set for the analysis. Unsupervised machine learning techniques, specifically topic modeling algorithms, are used to extract and categorize topics from X posts. The sentiment analysis algorithm is used to identify posts with the most positive sentiment. The structure and representation of these positive sentiment posts are then compared with the structure of the VIA classification.

Findings
The results of this study reveal a correlation between the structure of posts with the highest positive sentiment, as determined by topic modeling algorithms, and the structure of the VIA classification. This indicates that the topic structures derived from the X posts exhibit similarities to the categorization of character strengths proposed by the VIA classification. The findings of this study provide empirical validation for the VIA classification framework when applied to social media data.

Originality/value
This paper contributes to the literature by using unsupervised machine learning techniques to validate the VIA classification on social media data. The use of these innovative methods adds a novel dimension to the research on character strengths and virtues.
ESG performance and cross-region investment: evidence from China
Authors: Li Mingyang , Hu Yang 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThis study examines the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance on cross-region investment in China.Design/methodology/approachThis study utilized firm-level data from the China Stock Market and Accounting Research database covering 2009 to 2021, comprising 3,600 Chinese listed firms. Cross-region investment activities were measured using data on establishing subsidiaries across regional borders obtained from the TianYanCha website. Besides, this study also implemented the instrumental variables (IV) and difference-in-differences approach to address potential endogeneity issues. The panel Poisson and panel negative binomial models are used for robustness tests.FindingsThe findings indicate that companies with better ESG performance are more likely to establish cross-region subsidiaries, positively affecting cross-regional investment activities. Strong ESG performance reduces financing constraints, enhances information transparency and improves corporate reputation and resource allocation efficiency, thereby increasing cross-regional investment. Well-established ESG performance also helps overcome judicial barriers. Moreover, cross-region investments driven by ESG are less motivated by tax avoidance, pollution transfer and management self-interest.Research limitations/implicationsWe focus on listed companies in China, which may limit the applicability of our conclusions to other regions. Our measurement of cross-region investment might also underestimate its extent due to diverse investment methods. We suggest two future research directions: first, studies could explore the future performance of ESG-facilitated cross-region investments; second, further analysis could assess whether corporate ESG performance effectively dismantles administrative barriers and mitigates market segmentation.Originality/valueUnder China’s distinctive market segmentation phenomenon, this study fills a gap by providing new causal evidence of the role of managerial performance in mitigating capital flow boundaries.
How are library cataloging metadata used differently over time: a large-scale quantitative analysis of the Library of Congress catalog
Authors: Li Kai , Dobreski Brian , Busch Molly 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThe library catalog is not only a useful tool for patrons to find and access library collections but also a valuable dataset for various types of quantitative analysis on our cultural assets. This research aims to develop the latter potential of library metadata by conducting a large-scale analysis of how the metadata fields encoded in the Machine-Readable Cataloging (MARC) standards.Design/methodology/approachWe examined more than 6 million book records from 1980 to 2018 in the catalog of the Library of Congress. We particularly focused on how bibliographic records have changed over time and whether these changes correlate with the introduction of new cataloging policies.FindingsOur results show that more than 200 unique fields and 1,300 unique subfields have been used in the MARC format, though the majority of them are used in fewer than 1% of all records. At the same time, bibliographic records have become increasingly complex, with more fields and subfields per record over the past 40 years. Additionally, there are clear, although sometimes asynchronous, parallel developments between MARC tags and cataloging standards.Originality/valueThis study represents the first large-scale quantitative analysis of the history of library metadata, revealing significant and interesting changes over time and highlighting challenges for the meaningful use of library metadata in the current data environment.
Breaking the cycle of injustice: how leaders act justly under the double threat of higher-level injustice and low justice rewards
Authors: Chen Sixuan , Ye Bei , Zhang Yani , Zhou Kong , Wei Xuhua 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThis research investigates when and why lower-level leaders counteract interactional injustice after experiencing injustice from their superiors.Design/methodology/approachTwo scenario-based studies were employed to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe enactment of injustice by higher-level leaders was found to increase psychological disidentification among lower-level leaders, prompting them to exhibit higher levels of interactional justice, particularly in contexts where justice is seldom rewarded.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper extends trickle-down effects research by demonstrating how reactance can interrupt the transmission of injustice from higher-level leaders, suggesting that a reactance-provoking environment can motivate lower-level leaders to act more justly.Practical implicationsOrganizations can mitigate the spread of injustice by enhancing middle-level leaders’ awareness of unjust behaviors and fostering a leadership self-concept that emphasizes interactional justice.Originality/valueThis paper clarifies the reversal of the trickle-down process of interactional injustice, contributing to the literature on trickle-down effects and interactional justice.
So, you want to be a partner? How microaggressions and implicit biases create barriers for promotion
Authors: Shannon Kimberly R. , Faircloth Marcy , Plecka Malgorzata , Shannon Teo D. 
Published: January 2025

Research methodology
This descriptive case is drawn from the secondary sources by Mungaray (2018), a dissertation. The author, Kimberly R. Shannon (f.k.a. Mungaray) conducted the qualitative research over several months that included several dialogue or talking sessions with organization personnel. Additionally, she collected journals kept by the participants and conducted one-on-one interviews with each participant before and after the series of talking sessions. IRB approval was obtained prior to data collection. The people and places were disguised pursuant to the secondary sources. No AI was used in the writing of the case or Instructors’ Manual.

Case overview/synopsis
This descriptive case study considers the dynamics surrounding the promotion of women to top management (partner) in a Certified Public Accounting firm. The case study presents the perspectives of the current partner and the potential partners to help students recognize microinsults, microinvalidations and other privileged behaviors that perpetuate stereotype threat and learned helplessness, which thus creates barriers to career progression. These often unintentional comments and behaviors may further marginalize certain people (women, people of color and other marginalized identities, including an intersection of identities). The case concentrates on gender inequities and helps students develop an understanding of leadership implications while exercising their ability to consider multiple perspectives and motives. The case enables students to develop a plan of allyship.

Complexity academic level
This case is appropriate for undergraduate courses in ethics, organizational behavior, leadership, industrial psychology, sociology, women and gender studies, capstone courses in business or accounting and communications. Graduate courses in organizational behavior, leadership and women and gender studies.
A re‐examination of the relationship between plot size and productivity: The case of Bangladesh
Authors: Arman Mohammad Raied , Das Narayan , Nisat Rafia , Rahman Atiya 
Published: January 2025

AbstractRecent evidence shows that the inverse relationship between plot size and productivity is driven by an edge effect or by the over‐reporting of production by farmers on smaller plots. In this paper, we re‐examine the relationship between plot size and productivity in the context of Bangladesh. We also examine whether the effect of plot size is different across rice and non‐rice crops. We use panel data at the household level and estimate a fixed effects model. Results show that the effect of plot size on productivity is positive but not statistically significant. Further results show that there is no statistically significant effect of plot size on productivity for both rice and non‐rice crops. Our findings suggest that land redistribution, even if it leads to smaller plots, will not decrease farm production.
Hired Childcare and Changing Maternal Perceptions Among the Urban Poor: Baby Farming in the Western Lands of Late Imperial Russia
Authors: Oleshkevich Ekaterina 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThis article explores baby farming in the western regions of late imperial Russia, framing it as a childcare practice of the lower‐classes – a form of crèche for working mothers. The article delves into the public discourse surrounding baby farming among the educated strata and contrasts it with how this practice was viewed by the lower‐classes. I argue that baby farming was a form of wage labour – one of the few options available for middle‐aged urban women – and that the use of baby farmers’ services by mothers demonstrates the changing maternal perceptions among the lower‐classes.

ABSTRACTButterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) are among the most well‐studied organisms, with a vast literature covering their ecology, evolution, and natural history. However, many aspects of their biology continue to be discovered and rediscovered, including their wild feeding behaviours, preferences, causes and consequences. Here, we present and describe photographic and video records of adult butterflies exploiting unusual sources, including previously undocumented feeding behaviours for some species, and supporting natural history note novelties in already known feeding behaviours for others. We gathered a total of 23 records of primarily nectar‐ and fruit‐feeding butterfly species exploiting diverse sources, including fungi, flowering plants, withered plant parts, and a dead caterpillar. All records were made in different regions of Brazil, during field expeditions and naturalist walks, and were classified according to the butterfly species/groups involved, the type of resource exploited, and the location of the record. These records reinforce that butterflies can exhibit various feeding behaviours and may be involved in interspecific interactions and/or respond to food availability due to anthropogenic actions. Furthermore, this compilation of records reinforces the importance of publishing and sharing natural history observations to support and enhance the quality of ecological and taxonomic studies.
Nature AND nurture: enabling formate‐dependent growth in Methanosarcina acetivorans

Published: January 2025

Methanosarcinales are versatile methanogens, capable of regulating most types of methanogenic pathways. Despite the versatile metabolic flexibility of Methanosarcinales, no member of this order has been shown to use formate for methanogenesis. In the present study, we identified a cytosolic formate dehydrogenase (FdhAB) present in several Methanosarcinales, likely acquired by independent horizontal gene transfers after an early evolutionary loss, encouraging re‐evaluation of our understanding of formate utilization in Methanosarcinales. To explore whether formate‐dependent (methyl‐reducing or CO2‐reducing) methanogenesis can occur in Methanosarcinales, we engineered two different strains of Methanosarcina acetivorans by functionally expressing FdhAB from Methanosarcina barkeri in M. acetivorans. In the first strain, fdhAB was integrated into the N5‐methyl‐ tetrahydrosarcinapterin:coenzyme M methyltransferase (mtr) operon, making it capable of growing by reducing methanol with electrons from formate. In the second strain, fdhAB was integrated into the F420‐reducing hydrogenase (frh) operon, instead of the mtr operon, enabling its growth with formate as the only source of carbon and energy after adaptive laboratory evolution. In this strain, one CO2 is reduced to one methane with electrons from oxidizing four formate to four CO2, a metabolism reported only in methanogens without cytochromes. Although methanogens without cytochromes typically utilize flavin‐based electron bifurcation to generate the ferredoxins needed for CO2 activation, we hypothesize that, in our engineered strains, reduced ferredoxins are obtained via the Rhodobacter nitrogen fixation complex complex running in reverse. Our work demonstrates formate‐dependent methyl‐reducing and CO2‐reducing methanogenesis in M. acetivorans that is enabled by the flexible nature of the microbe working in tandem with the nurturing provided.

ABSTRACTSacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a well‐established treatment for chronic lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD), including urge urinary incontinence, urgency frequency syndrome and dysfunctional voiding with nonobstructive urinary retention. Despite its efficacy, the precise mechanism of SNM remains unknown. Effective use of SNM hinges on precise electrode placement near the S3 or S4 sacral spinal nerves and proper programming of the neurostimulator. With advancements in technology, SNM devices have become more efficient, and their application is endorsed by the European Association of Urology (EAU). The increasing complexity of SNM devices necessitates enhanced training for healthcare professionals, highlighting the essential role of Proctor Specialists (PS) in the operating room (OR). PS provides critical technical and application support, ensuring optimal use of new neuromodulation devices and enhancing surgical outcomes. This study explores the impact of PS guidance on scrub nurses new to SNM through a self‐administered questionnaire given to 30 nurses with 3–9 years of endourological experience. The results indicated high satisfaction with PS presence and introduction of new techniques, with 60% of nurses affirming a positive effect of PS on surgical outcomes, primarily through improved adherence to protocols, correct application of procedures, reduced operating times and effective management of new devices. Concerns were noted about managing procedures autonomously posttraining: nurses recommended increased educational sessions and postprocedure briefings for better integration of new technologies. This study underscores the positive impact of PSs in the OR, suggesting further research across various surgical contexts to validate these findings.
On the Homoousia
Authors: Rieger Joerg 
Published: January 2025

AbstractThe affirmation of the co‐equality (homoousia) of the first and the second persons of the Trinity at the Council of Nicaea is a major milestone in the history of theology and the church. Established at a time when the Roman empire developed its Christian identity, it has often been assumed that Nicene theology was imperial theology. In this article, the theological surplus of the Nicene position will be examined, investigating its imperial pedigree while also demonstrating the anti‐imperial potential and the Nicene Creed's implications for liberative theological thinking then and now.
Living Christ's Love in Intercultural Communities
Authors: Yong Amos 
Published: January 2025

AbstractThis article was designed and intended to prompt reflection around the conciliar theme “Mission Reimagined: Transforming Disciples Challenging Empire.” Given the author's own Pentecostal background and substantive recent work on how the earliest messianic disciples lived out their missional vocation in the 1st‐century Mediterranean imperial regime of the Pax Romana, this article aims to revisit the apostolic narrative especially as recounted by St Luke in his second volume, the book of Acts, to identify, explore, and reconsider how the first Christians were, effectively, multicultural and transnational communities of the Spirit of Jesus. They navigated their interculturality, transculturality, and cross‐culturality not only across ethnic‐cultural domains but also across socio‐economic and political‐economic registers. From this perspective, contemporary global Christian communities that exist across diasporic and migrational zones can draw encouragement from how the first generation of Jesus’ followers two thousand years ago confronted similar challenges. In this way, we can return to the New Testament to retrieve resources old and new for Christian life, spiritual practice, and missional witness in the 21st‐century global context.
