Towards fighting COVID-19: can servant leadership behaviour enhance commitment of medical knowledge-workers
Authors: Ngoma Muhammed , Namono Rehema , Nangoli Sudi , Bashir Hassan , Nakyeyune Swafiyya 
Published: March 2023

PurposeThis article examines the potential of increasing commitment of medical knowledge-workers (medical-KWs) in hospitals, particularly in handling deadly pandemics like COVID-19, through servant leadership behaviour. The authors hold that medical-KWs like doctors and nurses form the core team of knowledge-workers (KWs) at the forefront of fighting COVID-19 through seeking possible vaccines, treating patients and promoting behaviours that curtail its spread. Thus research directed towards enhancing their continued commitment is both timely and valuable.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses an explanatory cross-sectional survey design.FindingsResults reveal that servant leadership behaviour significantly explains changes in commitment of medical-KWs. Results further establish that perceived fairness – a key psychological factor – significantly explains how servant leadership enhances the commitment of medical-KWs.Research limitations/implicationsData used were sourced from medical-KWs in selected public hospitals only. Thus results may differ among medical-KWs in private hospitals, yet they have also championed the fight against COVID-19. Never the less these results provide a direction of thought to guide practice and other related studies on a wider-scale.Practical implicationsIn their quest to eradicate COVID-19 and its negative effects on social-economic development, nations have to actively promote servant leadership behaviour in the hospitals (by establishing quality relationships, credibility and efficient processes for delivering the shared goal) as mechanisms for sustaining the continued commitment of medical-KWs towards fighting the pandemic.Originality/valueResults portray events from an economy that has registered successes in combating pandemics like Ebola and currently COVID-19 and thus offer a plausible benchmark for practice.
Eulerian–Lagrangian CFD model for prediction of heat transfer between aircraft deicing liquid sprays and a surface
Authors: Ernez Sami , Morency François 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
The aim of this paper is to present a Eulerian–Lagrangian model of aircraft ground deicing that avoids the scale’s dispersion problem caused by the great distance between the spray nozzle and the surface to be deiced. Verification is done using the case of a hot particle liquid spray impinging on a horizontal flat plate. The impinged particles flow outwards radially from the impingement zone and form a hot film wall. The computed wall heat distribution is verified. In the end, an inclination spray’s angle study is presented.

Design/methodology/approach
The problem is divided into two regions. First, a 3D region is created for the evolution of the Lagrangian particles spray. A second 2D region is provided for the formation of a liquid film. The two regions exchange mass, momentum and energy through an interface. Heat losses are modelled through particles and liquid-film cooling and evaporation, particles splash and heat transfer to a fixed temperature plate.

Findings
For a chamber pressure of 1 bar, the predicted spray penetration is within 10 per cent of the experimental results. For this study case, the heat transfer is maximized with an inclination angle of approximately 30° of the spray.

Originality/value
The model presented makes it possible to simulate the impingement and heat transfer of a large-scale liquid spray with a reasonable computational cost. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this model is a first attempt of the computational fluid dynamics simulation of ground deicing.
An exploration of determinants of affordable housing choice
Authors: Olanrewaju AbdulLateef , Woon Tan Chai 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
Housing sufficiency is an indication of national development, and in recognition of this, a longstanding development objective of the Malaysian Government is the provision of affordable housing. The government has introduced various policies, schemes and regulations to increase housing supply. However, despite these measures, homeownership rates are dropping, and housing prices are outstripping inflation. For this reason, this paper aims to explain the determinants of housing choices. The issues in affordable housing supply in Malaysia are that of shortage and distributions. The problem of distribution is largely addressable through choice reconciliations.

Design/methodology/approach
The research is based on a cross-sectional survey questionnaire, comprising 20 determinants and 468 householders/users. The questionnaire was developed via a review of the literature and the authors’ experience. The survey forms are administered by hand.

Findings
Six determinants were found to be extremely important to households’ choice of housing. The Kaiser’s measure of sampling adequacy (MSA) indicated that the strength of the relationships among the determinants was strong (MSA = 0.762). Bartlett’s test of sphericity, was significant χ2 (1035) = 5013.814, p < 0.001), indicating the data were drawn from the same population and that the determinants were related. Using principal component analysis, all the 20 determinants were reduced to seven factors that accounted for some 60 per cent of the total proportion communalities. The factors were general factor, financial factor, building factor, income factor, accessibility factor, market factor and location factor.

Originality/value
Previous research only addressed factors affecting housing price, not a choice. This is the first study that explains determinants of housing choice determinants in Malaysia. This is the first study that involves large respondents. Previous research addressed housing in general and not affordable housing. The results will be useful to developers, homebuyers and policy makers towards affordable housing delivery.
What drives mobile MOOC's continuous intention? A theory of perceived value perspective
Authors: Dastane Omkar , Haba Herman Fassou 
Published: March 2023

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to identify drivers of mobile massive open online course (MOOC) continuous intention (CI) through the lenses of customer perceived value (CPV) theory. Consumer choice is successfully explained by CPV, but lesser attention is given to linking the theory to the mobile MOOC context whereby the majority of theories have adopted approaches like technology acceptance model (TAM), unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), etc.Design/methodology/approachA mix-method approach was employed. Study A (qualitative), explores context-specific perceived value (PV) dimensions using nethnographic analysis of 627 learner reviews on Corsera app. Study B (quantitative), collects primary data by administering a questionnaire based on dimensions, and 231 responses were then analysed using structural equation modelling.FindingsThe results revealed that three context-specific PVs (i.e. pedagogy, interface and content) have a positive and significant impact on CI. Pedagogy value is a chief driving force of mobile MOOC CI followed by content value. Ubiquity value demonstrated insignificant impact.Practical implicationsThe findings provide insights for MOOC apps and their developers for formulating better value propositions for ensuring sustainable business which may result in gaining a higher share in the growing mobile learning market.Originality/valueThis study bridges an important gap in mobile MOOC literature by providing a novel approach to investigating what drives mobile MOOC CI through the lenses of CPV theory. It is the first study investigating mobile MOOC CI through the specific CPV dimensions identified by employing a mixed-method approach. The study formulates a conceptual framework that may serve as a foundation for future research on mobile MOOCs for which literature is relatively scant.
On-boarding new employees: a three-component perspective of welcoming
Authors: Cesário Francisco , Chambel Maria José 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
No component of the human capital management has been more overlooked by companies than the process of welcoming new recruited employees – the on-boarding phase. This paper aims to present a three-component perspective of on-boarding and a contribution to measuring the employees’ perceptions based on three dimensions of welcoming: structured corporate welcome, manager welcome and coworkers welcome.

Design/methodology/approach
An empirical study based on a self-reported survey was conducted to test the model and an on-boarding employees’ perceptions proposed scale. The authors hypothesized that the three on-boarding components relate positively to some critical work outcomes (e.g. work engagement and affective organizational commitment). Analyses using a sample of 347 workers from Portuguese firms showed that the three-component on-boarding scale had adequate validity and all three components of on-boarding were positively related to the work outcomes included in this study.

Findings
Findings suggest that an effective onboarding process, based on the three-component perspective (corporate welcome, manager welcome and coworkers welcome), is a significant contribution to promote organizational affective commitment and work engagement of new employees.

Originality/value
The paper addresses the need for organizations to design on-boarding programs based on an integrated perspective, not only formal corporate activities but also preparing managers and coworkers to host effectively new employees. Strong association with work outcomes enables a better understanding on how onboard can contribute to an engaged and retained workforce.

Published: March 2023

PurposeAs university–industry collaboration (UIC) is associated to transfer of knowledge and technology, this collaboration is an extremely important field of study for the world's economies that helps industries become more competitive. UIC will assist universities in fine-tuning universities' educational programs to match with the industrial demand. This study, thus, presents a systematic literature review related to UIC in technology development process and technology commercialization.Design/methodology/approachThe Scopus database is used to extract the relevant articles. First, in presenting the articles, four scientometric analyses are used to visualize the bibliometric clusters, namely articles and journals co-citation analysis, countries collaboration analysis and keywords co-occurrence analysis. Next, a qualitative approach is used to classify the articles according to the methodology used and type of research. Finally, a research trend and keywords' evolution based on keywords are also provided.FindingsResults of this study reveal that majority of the articles used qualitative approach and descriptive analysis to explain the knowledge flow between industries and universities. According to the research trend analysis, researchers in this field were moving from the knowledge-based economy topic (from 2010–2013) to product development (2014–2015), technology commercialization (2016–2017), open innovation (2018–2019) and then currently are focusing on the green entrepreneurship topic.Practical implicationsThis study is expected to facilitate scholars to uncover gaps in the literature of UIC.Originality/valueThis study extends the use of scientometric analysis. The combination of “bibliometrix” R-package tool and VOSViewer software to perform the analysis is expected to give a new insight of doing the systematic literature review.
Impacts of rural roads on household welfare in Vietnam: evidence from a replication study
Authors: Nguyen Cuong Viet 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
Recently, there has been a call for replication research to validate empirical findings, especially findings that are important for development policies. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to replicate the estimation results from Mu and van de Walle (2011).

Design/methodology/approach
The author used raw data sets provided by Mu Ren and Dominique van de Walle and the same methods of Mu and van de Walle (2011). In addition to the pure replication, the author conducted the two extensions: sensitivity analysis of covariates and bandwidth selection and analysis of the effect of the road project on additional outcome variables.

Findings
Overall, the author ables to replicate most estimates from Mu and van de Walle (2011). The author find a positive effect of rural roads on local market development. The impact estimates of the road project are not sensitive to the selection of the bandwidth in kernel propensity score (PS) matching. There are no significant effects of road projects on additional outcomes, including access to credit and migration.

Practical implications
The study confirms a positive effect of rural roads on local market development. Thus, the government can provide investment in rural roads to improve the local market and its welfare.

Originality/value
This study tried to replicate and verify an important study on the impact of the rural road in Vietnam.
Identification and analysis of critical barriers for achieving sustainable development in India
Authors: Parida Ratri , Katiyar Rajesh , Rajhans Kirti 
Published: March 2023

PurposeAchieving sustainable development in terms of people, prosperity and partnership is the main aspect in any country’s plan for development. This sustainable development has to be achieved in three major dimensions, that is, economic, social and environmental in an integrated, balanced and systematic way. The same is highlighted in the United Nations’ (UN) vision for sustainable development by 2030. The purpose of this study is to identify the critical barriers of urban sustainability and gender equality with reference to Indian context, to suggest the strategies to achieve sustainable development in the referred area and to evaluate the relationship between them.Design/methodology/approachThe major contribution of this study lies in the development of a contextual relationship model from the various identified critical barriers in Indian context, using interpretive structural modeling with MICMAC analysis.FindingsOf the 17 goals given by UN, considering the Indian context, the goals of building resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization and fostering innovation; promoting sustained and inclusive economic growth along with full and productive employment and decent work for all; and gender equality and empowering women at all levels seem to be the major challenges and the same are selected in this study for further analysis. To understand the major challenges in these areas and also to find the way forward, the study has set following three major objectives: to identify the critical barriers of urban sustainability and gender equality with reference to Indian context; to suggest the strategies to achieve sustainable development in the referred area; and to evaluate the relationship between them.Originality/valueConsidering the highly volatile and complex demand requirements, this approach may help to enable the government to tackle issues/challenges related to both urban sustainability and gender inequality on priority basis and in a holistic manner to achieve the goals of sustainable development, thereby improving the quality of life.
Contingency factors and budget actors' behaviour during COVID-19: the case of Uganda
Authors: Nkundabanyanga Stephen Korutaro , Jayasinghe Kelum , Abaho Ernest , Mugambe Kenneth 
Published: March 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the viewpoints and experiences of multiple budget actors to understand their particular budget related behaviours contingent upon the COVID-19 (C19) pandemic of a developing country.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses Uganda as a case study and employs semi-structured interview method for the data collection. In trying to generate themes and patterns, data are analysed through three levels of coding: open, axial and selective coding. The contingency theory is used to interpret the data.FindingsThe task of budgeting formulation, implementation and control in times of C19 lead to varied actual behaviours of budget actors because of the environmental uncertainty, inappropriate structural and technological conditions and manipulative organisational cultures contingent upon the Ugandan C19 budget context.Research limitations/implicationsThe insights generated from the study can be useful for the national governments of emerging economies, e.g. African countries, to understand the conditions that influence the budget actors' behaviour and together, develop long-term financial resilience strategies to face future emergencies.Originality/valueThis study contributes to accounting and public budgeting theory by showing that contingency theory is a relevant framework for understanding budget actors' behaviour in emergency situations. The study potentially strengthens the contingency theory framework through its incorporation of organisational culture perspective into the “people” element.
Energy-based time equivalent approach to determine the fire resistance ratings of light gauge steel frame walls exposed to realistic design fire curves
Authors: Ariyanayagam Anthony Deloge , Mahendran Mahen 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to present the details of a study undertaken to develop an energy-based time equivalent approach to obtain the fire resistance ratings (FRRs) of light gauge steel frame (LSF) walls exposed to realistic design fire curves.

Design/methodology/approach
The energy-based time equivalent method was developed based on the performance of a structural member exposed to a realistic design fire curve in comparison to that of the standard fire time – temperature curve. The FRR predicted by the energy-based method for LSF wall configurations exposed to both rapid and prolonged fires were compared with those from fire design rules and finite element analyses (FEA).

Findings
The proposed energy method can be used to obtain the FRR of LSF walls in case of prolonged fires and cannot be used for rapid fires as the computed FRRs were higher than the results from FEA and fire design rules due to the influence of thermal bowing and its magnification effects at a high temperature gradient across the studs for rapid fires.

Originality/value
The energy-based time equivalent method was developed based on equal fire severity principles. Three different wall configurations were considered and exposed to both rapid and prolonged fires. The FRR obtained from the energy-based method were compared with fire design rules and FEA results to assess the use of the energy-based method to predict the FRR of LSF walls.
Configurations of innovation performance in foreign owned subsidiaries: focusing on organizational agility and digitalization
Authors: Dahms Sven , Cabrilo Sladjana , Kingkaew Suthikorn 
Published: March 2023

PurposeThe authors investigate conditions that drive innovation performance in foreign-owned subsidiaries. The authors study five variables affecting innovation performance: organizational agility and digital capabilities as the main drivers and competencies and embeddedness in internal and external networks as complementary antecedents of innovation.Design/methodology/approachThe authors draw on the neo-configurational perspective and apply fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to empirically test survey data from subsidiaries located in the emerging economies of Thailand and Vietnam.FindingsWhile the authors find no single condition on its own determining innovation performance, the authors do find that in concert they form four configurations of high innovation performance. The results indicate that all configurations contain competencies, as well as that subsidiaries should prioritize between internal and external networks to complement agility, digital capabilities, to achieve high innovation performance. The authors also reveal intriguing contextual differences in the innovation performance configurations between the two host countries.Originality/valueBy incorporating causal complexity as well as substitutability and complementarity of innovation drivers, the authors extend the current understanding of subsidiary innovation performance outcomes.
Assessing citizen perceptions of body-worn cameras after encounters with police
Authors: White Michael D. , Todak Natalie , Gaub Janne E. 
Published: March 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to assess perceptions of body-worn cameras (BWCs) among citizens who had BWC-recorded police encounters, and to explore the potential for a civilizing effect on citizen behavior.

Design/methodology/approach
From June to November 2015, the authors conducted telephone interviews with 249 citizens in Spokane (WA) who had a recent BWC-recorded police encounter.

Findings
Respondents were satisfied with how they were treated during the police encounter and, overall, had positive attitudes about BWCs. However, only 28 percent of respondents were actually aware of the BWC during their own encounter. The authors also found little evidence of a civilizing effect but did document a significant, positive connection between awareness of the BWC and enhanced perceptions of procedural justice.

Research limitations/implications
Authors only interviewed citizens who had encounters with officers wearing BWCs. However, variation in BWC awareness among citizens allowed the authors to construct a proxy “non-BWC condition” for comparison.

Practical implications
The pre-conditions necessary to produce a civilizing effect among citizens are complex and difficult to achieve. The intriguing relationship between BWC awareness and procedural justice suggests the technology may have the potential to improve police legitimacy.

Originality/value
The study is among the first to explore attitudes about BWCs among those who have their police encounters recorded, and results demonstrate high levels of support among this population. Findings bode well for continued adoption of BWCs in policing.
