Evaluation of search engine results pages in various languages and contents: the changes in strategies and criteria
Authors: Sendurur Emine , Gabriel Sonja 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
This study aims to discover how domain familiarity and language affect the cognitive load and the strategies applied for the evaluation of search engine results pages (SERP).

Design/methodology/approach
This study used an experimental research design. The pattern of the experiment was based upon repeated measures design. Each student was given four SERPs varying in two dimensions: language and content. The criteria of students to decide on the three best links within the SERP, the reasoning behind their selection, and their perceived cognitive load of the given task were the repeated measures collected from each participant.

Findings
The evaluation criteria changed according to the language and task type. The cognitive load was reported higher when the content was presented in English or when the content was academic. Regarding the search strategies, a majority of students trusted familiar sources or relied on keywords they found in the short description of the links. A qualitative analysis showed that students can be grouped into different types according to the reasons they stated for their choices. Source seeker, keyword seeker and specific information seeker were the most common types observed.

Originality/value
This study has an international scope with regard to data collection. Moreover, the tasks and findings contribute to the literature on information literacy.
Preparedness for a low-carbon future – knowledge level of built environment students
Authors: Unuigbe Maria , Zulu Sambo Lyson 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
The UK Government has committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, being the first major nation to do so. While laudable, it raises the question, “are future built environment professionals (BEPs) equipped for this?” Although studies related to students’ perspectives exist, they broadly focus on sustainability-related pedagogical aspects, with limited studies conducted in the built environment (BE). This study makes the case that it is timely to investigate this from an emerging perspective using the term “low-carbon future” (LCF), given that it is germane to achieving net-zero emissions and is at the forefront of academic and practice discourse. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the knowledge level of UK BE students’ in higher education institutions (HEIs) specific to the term LCF.

Design/methodology/approach
This is a systematic scoping study review of published papers related to sustainability in BE curricula in the UK HEI context.

Findings
The findings reveal that LCF remains at a nascent stage, with no study specifically addressing it. It indicates a knowledge gap that could impact the grounding students require to address current and future sustainability challenges.

Research limitations/implications
The review focused on a specific term, which, while relevant, is very niche. A review of other emerging terms, considering LCF as a theme, and/or empirical data from diverse stakeholders in UK HEIs could enrich the results.

Practical implications
This study provides significant insight into the status of sustainability inclusion in the BE curriculum. It would serve as a reference for stakeholders involved in equipping future BEPs with the requisite knowledge and skills to deal with sustainability challenges that will be consequential beyond the UK context. It would also inform future research.

Social implications
Sustainability-informed and equipped BEPs will be influential in shaping their immediate surroundings and how people engage with them, which will contribute to developing a more equitable and sustainable society.

Originality/value
Beyond contributing to the discourse on sustainability literacy in UK HEI from an emerging concept perspective, this study would be useful as possibly the first of its kind. Therefore, it fills the theoretical gap and proffers recommendations that would be beneficial for curriculum development.
Reconstructing legitimacy of internal auditing during ERP implementations: two contrasting cases
Authors: Elbardan Hany , Nordberg Donald , Sinha Vikash Kumar 
Published: November 2023

PurposeThis study aims to examine how the legitimacy of internal auditing is reconstructed during enterprise resource planning (ERP)-driven technological change.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on the comparative analysis of internal auditing and its transformation due to ERP implementations at two case firms operating in the food sector in Egypt – one a major Egyptian multinational corporation (MNC) and the other a major domestic company (DC).FindingsInternal auditors (IAs) at MNC saw ERP implementation as an opportunity to reconstruct the legitimacy of internal auditing work by engaging and partnering with actors involved with the ERP change. In doing so, the IAs acquired system certifications and provided line functions and external auditors with data-driven business insights. The “practical coping mechanism” adopted by the IAs led to the acceptance (and legitimacy) of their work. In contrast, IAs at DC adopted a purposeful strategy of disengaging, blaming and rejecting since they were skeptical of the top management team's (TMT's) sincerity. The “disinterestedness” led to the loss of legitimacy in the eyes of the stakeholders.Originality/valueThe article offers two contributions. First, it extends the literature by highlighting a spectrum of behavior displayed by IAs (coping with impending issues vs strategic purposefulness) during ERP-driven technological change. Second, the article contributes to the literature on legitimacy by highlighting four intertwined micro-processes – participating, socializing, learning and role-forging – that contribute to reconstructing the legitimacy of internal auditing.
Reinventing teaching pedagogy: the benefits of quiz-enhanced flipped classroom model on students' learning outcomes and engagement
Authors: Samaila Kamaludeen , Al-Samarraie Hosam 
Published: November 2023

PurposeThe flipped classroom model is an emerging teaching pedagogy in universities, colleges and secondary schools. This model will likely be successful if students prepare and acquire basic knowledge before class hours. Pre-class video lectures are common for students to access knowledge before class hours. However, students often do not watch the pre-class videos or do so only immediately before class hours due to poor engagement and supporting strategies, which can have detrimental effects on their learning achievement. To address this issue, embedding quiz questions into pre-class recorded videos may increase the completion of pre-class activities, students' engagement and learning success. This study examines the effect of a quiz-based flipped classroom (QFC) model to improve students' learning achievement and engagement in a computer science course.Design/methodology/approachThe study involved 173 participants divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group consisted of 78 students who used the QFC model, while the control group consisted of 73 students who used the conventional flipped classroom (CFC) model.FindingsThe 10-week experiment showed that the QFC model effectively improved students' learning achievement and engagement (both behavioral and agentic) compared to the CFC model.Practical implicationsEmbedding quiz strategy into the pre-class video demonstrated the potential support to enhance the efficacy of the CFC model. Based on the results of this research, the authors recommended that flipped educators can use the quiz strategy to minimize pre-class issues (especially students' disengagement).Originality/valueThis research adds to the existing literature by evaluating the effect of the newly proposed model on students' learning outcomes and engagement. This study's results can guide colleges and universities intending to implement a blended learning or flipped learning model. The research also gives design, content and course implementation guidelines, which can help engage students to achieve their learning objectives.
Does CEO narcissism matter? An examination of the relationship between board structure and earnings management in Kenya
Authors: Tarus Daniel Kipkirong , Korir Fiona Jepkosgei 
Published: November 2023

PurposeThis paper examines how board structure influences real earnings management and the interaction effect of CEO narcissism on board structure-real earnings management relationship.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used panel data derived from secondary sources from publicly listed firms in Kenya during 2002–2017. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe results indicate that board independence, board tenure and size have significant negative effect on real earnings management, while CEO duality positively affects real earnings management. Further, the interaction results show that CEO narcissism moderates the relationship between CEO duality and real earnings management.Research limitations/implicationsThe results suggest that real earnings management reduces when boards are independent, large and comprising of long-tenured members. However, when the CEO plays dual role of a chairman, real earnings management increases. The authors also find that when CEOs are narcissists, the monitoring role of the board is compromised.Originality/valueThe study adds value to the understanding of how board structure and CEO narcissism influence the monitoring role of the board among firms listed at Nairobi Securities Exchange.
Improvements in pincer nail deformity occur earlier and last longer when acetylcysteine gel is added to an overcurvature‐correcting device: Results of a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, vehicle‐controlled, investigator‐blinded study

Published: November 2023

AbstractAcetylcysteine (AC) destabilizes keratin and softens nails, reducing the time needed to correct pincer nail deformity with an overcurvature‐correcting device. The objective of this phase 3, multicenter, randomized, investigator‐blinded study was to evaluate the early and sustained therapeutic effectiveness and safety of 10% AC gel plus an overcurvature‐correcting device to treat pincer nails. Patients aged 12 years and older with hallux pincer nail were fitted with an overcurvature‐correcting device for 7 days, with a 24‐h application of AC gel (n = 40) or vehicle (n = 39) on day 1. The primary end point (achievement of a distal narrowed nail width ratio ≥70% on day 8) was met by 47.5% in the 10% AC group and 25.6% in the vehicle group (difference 21.9%;p = 0.0439). Secondary end points showed a greater tendency towards improvement with 10% AC. The nail correction effect was maintained for at least 12 weeks in the majority of AC‐treated patients, although the study duration was insufficient to assess the long‐term probability of recurrence. No AC‐related adverse events were reported. In conclusion, a single application of 10% AC gel combined with short‐term device use facilitated earlier correction of pincer nails compared with the device alone, with improvements maintained after device removal.
Ultra‐resolution surface‐consistent full waveform inversion

Published: November 2023

AbstractFull waveform inversion for land seismic data requires the development of specific strategies for modelling the complex response associated to the near surface. Seismic wave propagation is distorted by several effects, such as topographic relief, wavefield scattering, attenuation (often frequency‐dependent) and anisotropy. The modelling of such shallow complexities is often unmanageable by parametric inversions such that data preconditioning and surface‐related corrections are required before tackling the full waveform inversion velocity modelling problem. We developed a unified framework addressing both surface‐consistent corrections and full waveform inversion by using the transmitted portion of the wavefield. The problem of surface‐consistent decomposition is recast in terms of the transmitted wavefield leading to kinematic and dynamic corrections to account for sub‐resolution wave propagation distortions occurring in the near surface weathering layer. Seismic data are deconvolved from the effects of the near surface to better represent the deeper subsurface wavefield propagation. Signal‐to‐noise enhancement is obtained after the surface‐consistent transmission preconditioning by the generation of virtual super gathers reconstructed in the midpoint‐offset sorting domain. An original scheme of 1.5D Laplace–Fourier full waveform inversion, involving 3D radiation and 1D velocity inversion, is then applied for the velocity reconstruction where the amplitude information of the seismic data is fully preserved and utilized. The unified approach of surface‐consistent transmission preconditioning and velocity modelling is demonstrated on the Society of Exploration Geophysicists Advanced Modelling arid model dataset as well as on two complex field datasets containing near surface complexities typical of arid regions. The approach provides the solution of the near surface distortions by performing data preconditioning and velocity inversions in a unified scheme. The surface‐consistent full waveform inversion approach has been utilized for large land seismic projects and represents a robust tool for supporting land seismic imaging.
A comparison of the carbon footprint of alternative sampling approaches for cervical screening in the UK: A descriptive study
Authors: Whittaker Maya , Davies Jennifer C. , Sargent Alexandra , Sawyer Matt , Crosbie Emma J. 
Published: November 2023

AbstractObjectiveTo understand whether self‐sampling can reduce carbon emissions (CO2e) from the NHS cervical screening programme (NHSCSP) by comparing the carbon footprint of three sampling strategies: routine cervical sampling, vaginal self‐sampling and first‐void (FV) urine collection.DesignDescriptive study.SettingNational Health Service (NHS), United Kingdom (UK).Population or SamplePatients aged 25–64 years eligible for cervical screening in the UK.MethodsA carbon footprint analysis was undertaken for three cervical screening sampling approaches, from point of invitation to screening through to preparation for transport to the laboratory for HPV testing. A combination of primary and secondary data were used, with a bottom‐up approach applied to collection of primary data.Main Outcome MeasuresWe report CO2e per sampling approach, which is the unit used to express carbon footprint and harmonise the contributions of greenhouse gases with different global warming potentials.ResultsThe total carbon footprint of routine cervical sampling is 3670 g CO2e. By comparison, vaginal self‐sampling had a total carbon footprint of 423 g CO2e, and FV urine sampling 570 g CO2e. The largest share of emissions for routine sampling was attributable to the carbon footprint associated with an appointment in a primary care setting, which totalled 2768 g CO2e.ConclusionsRoutine cervical sampling is up to 8.7‐fold more carbon‐intensive than self‐sampling approaches with equivalent effectiveness. We found negligible differences in the carbon footprint of alternative self‐sampling methods, supporting the need for an informed choice of screening options for participants, which includes sharing information on their environmental impacts.
Why do young adults coreside with their parents?
Authors: Acolin Arthur , Lin Desen , Wachter Susan M. 
Published: November 2023

AbstractNearly one in every two adults aged 18–29 currently lives with their parents, compared to slightly more than one in four in 1960. The literature focuses on changing labor market conditions and marriage–childbearing delays to account for this shift. Using a Blinder–Oaxaca procedure, we identify a role for housing affordability, measured by market‐level median housing rent or price to median household income ratios, as an additional factor in the increase in coresidency since but not before 2000. We endogenize the marriage–childbearing decision with a Heckman selection model and attribute up to a quarter of the observed 9‐percentage‐point increase in the coresidence share between 2000 and 2021 to a decrease in housing affordability. We find a nonlinear relationship between affordability and coresidence with the relationship strongest in the least affordable metros where affordability constraints might be more binding. Overall, these results show changes in market‐level housing affordability are associated with the increase in young adult coresidence over the first two decades of the 21st century.

Published: November 2023

AbstractPurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the preoperative risk factors in patients with radiologically resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs), deemed to be unresectable intraoperatively.MethodsData on patients radiologically diagnosed with resectable PDACs and subsequently underwent pancreatectomy between January 2020 and December 2021 were retrospectively collected. Preoperative risk factors were also analysed.ResultsFifty‐three patients with resectable PDAC who underwent laparotomy for curative intent were divided into the no‐metastases (n = 32) and distant metastases (n = 21) groups. Univariate analysis identified factors associated with distant metastases found intraoperatively, such as significant weight loss (odds ratio [OR] 5.29, P = .02), tumour size >35 mm (OR 4.15, P = .017), tumours located at the body and tail of the pancreas (OR 6, P = .041), superior mesenteric vein (SMV) abutment from the tumour (OR 7.5, P = .02), serum carbohydrate antigen 19‐9 > 385 IU/mL (OR 3.58, P = .031) and serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels >9 IU/mL. However, multivariate analysis showed that only significant weight loss (adjusted OR 27.19, P = .011), SMV abutment from the tumour (adjusted OR 52.64, P = .01) and serum CEA levels >9 IU/mL were associated with distant metastases found intraoperatively.ConclusionSignificant weight loss, SMV abutment and serum CEA levels of >9 IU/mL were intraoperatively associated with distant metastases. Staging laparoscopy and positron emission tomography–computed tomography may reduce unnecessary laparotomies and change clinical management in these patients.

Published: November 2023

AbstractThis study aimed to investigate the ultrasound‐assisted extraction of bioactive compounds from persimmon (Diospyros kaki) calyx by deep eutectic solvents (DES) with different molar ratios. For this reason, the prepared DES extracts’ total phenolic–flavonoid compounds and antioxidant activities (1,1‐diphenyl‐2‐picrilhydrazyl radical scavenging activity [DPPH•], Cupric Reducing Antioxidant Capacity (CUPRAC), and ferric reducing antioxidant power [FRAP]) were investigated as a result of the experimental design and optimization study conducted for this purpose. A sonication time of 20 min was determined as the optimal condition. Under these conditions, a molar ratio of 1.9:1 (lactic acid:choline chloride) and a water ratio of 70% provided the highest phenolic/flavonoid compounds and antioxidative activity. Correlations among water ratio, molar ratio, and sonication time were determined using principal component analysis (PCA). In conditions where total flavonoid compound, FRAP, and DPPH• are high due to PCA, it can be concluded that the sonication time is at high level; on the contrary, the water and molar ratios are at low level. In conclusion, ultrasound‐assisted extraction using DES proved effective in persimmon calyx. Therefore, it can be recommended to use these environmentally friendly green solvents as an alternative to organic solvents in preparing extracts in various fields.Practical ApplicationThis study shows the effectiveness of the ultrasound‐assisted green extraction method using persimmon calyx specified as waste. These findings are compelling in the food industry in terms of consumers being now aware of green technology and the discovery that calyx is a good source of bioactive compounds.

Published: November 2023

AbstractWith declining biodiversity worldwide, a better understanding of species diversity and their relationships is imperative for conservation and management efforts. Marine sponges are species‐rich ecological key players on coral reefs, but their species diversity is still poorly understood. This is particularly true for the demosponge order Haplosclerida, whose systematic relationships are contentious due to the incongruencies between morphological and molecular phylogenetic hypotheses. The single gene markers applied in previous studies did not resolve these discrepancies. Hence, there is a high need for a genome‐wide approach to derive a phylogenetically robust classification and understand this group's evolutionary relationships. To this end, we developed a target enrichment‐based multilocus probe assay for the order Haplosclerida using transcriptomic data. This probe assay consists of 20,000 enrichment probes targeting 2956 ultraconserved elements in coding (i.e. exon) regions across the genome and was tested on 26 haplosclerid specimens from the Red Sea. Our target‐enrichment approach correctly placed our samples in a well‐supported phylogeny, in agreement with previous haplosclerid molecular phylogenies. Our results demonstrate the applicability of high‐resolution genomic methods in a systematically complex marine invertebrate group and provide a promising approach for robust phylogenies of Haplosclerida. Subsequently, this will lead to biologically unambiguous taxonomic revisions, better interpretations of biological and ecological observations and new avenues for applied research, conservation and managing declining marine diversity.
