Authors: Newell Graeme 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThe environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda has taken on increased importance in the real estate sector in recent years. This paper assesses the increasing importance of biodiversity, nature-related issues and habitat in the ESG agenda for real estate and the impact of the introduction of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) guidelines and several European-based biodiversity initiatives that will shape biodiversity and nature-related risk management in real estate going forward. Strategies being used by the leading real estate players to deliver this important biodiversity and nature-related dimension of ESG are also identified.Design/methodology/approachThis research is based on a thorough understanding of the ESG environment in the real estate industry by the author. Best practice examples regarding biodiversity and nature in ESG and the use of the TNFD guidelines in the real estate sector are provided.FindingsNature-related risk management is increasingly important. Biodiversity and nature-related guidelines such as TNFD are important to capture biodiversity, nature and habitat issues in the ESG agenda in the real estate sector. These biodiversity guidelines will enable real estate players to be explicit in evaluating, addressing and disclosing their nature-related risks to their stakeholders and facilitating the effective delivery of nature-related risk management procedures. Several major real estate players have already given a commitment to delivering these TNFD guidelines and are developing best practice procedures to embed these TNFD guidelines for biodiversity, nature and habitat in their real estate decision-making. These biodiversity guidelines are expected to have an increasing impact in the real estate sector going forward.Practical implicationsESG is a key element in the real estate sector today, with net zero carbon strategies and climate change risk management being key dimensions going forward. This climate-related agenda is now being extended to a nature-related agenda, as the issues of biodiversity, nature and habitat are addressed. Guidelines such as TNFD are an important development that the real estate sector will need to embrace, with several leading real estate players already committing to TNFD in their real estate reporting and decision-making. The development of best practice procedures and suitable metrics for these nature-related guidelines will be key components for the fuller assessment of biodiversity, nature and habitat in the real estate space.Originality/valueThis paper is the first paper to specifically address the need for more focus on incorporating biodiversity and nature in ESG in the real estate industry, highlighted by the use of the TNFD guidelines and European-based biodiversity initiatives. Best practice examples from the real estate industry are assessed. This area of biodiversity, nature and TNFD will be a key issue for ESG in the real estate industry going forward.

Fostering sustainable employability in interorganizational networks: which activities and conditions pay off?
Authors: Courchesne Sarah A. , Stynen Dave , Semeijn Judith H. , Caniëls Marjolein C.J. 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
Currently, lifelong learning and sustainable employability are increasingly fostered in the context of interorganizational networks, which provide workers with access to network activities (e.g., training, career counseling). This study aims to investigate the relationship between workers’ participation in network activities and their sustainable employability by considering workers’ experiences with the network activities. This study also examines the role of relational factors, including network trust and leader-member exchange, as conditions that may influence the link between workers’ participation in network activities and their sustainable employability (i.e. workability, perceived employability and vitality).

Design/methodology/approach
This study has a mixed methods design. A quantitative approach (cross-sectional, questionnaire) was used to establish associations between variables. This approach was supplemented with qualitative data (semistructured interviews) to explore whether Self-Determination Theory can provide an explanation for the associations and the role of (relational) factors that workers perceive as hindering or facilitating in that process.

Findings
The results suggest that participating in network activities have promising benefits for both workers and organizations by facilitating the work ability and perceived employability components of sustainable employability. For these relationships, workers’ satisfaction of their need for competency and relatedness serves as explanatory mechanisms. Moreover, the actualization of benefits of network activities is influenced by relational factors both within the network (i.e. trust) and within organizations (i.e. leader-member exchange).

Originality/value
This study investigates workers’ experiences with network activities, regarding fostering workers’ sustainable employability, and the role of relational factors. Specifically, it considers Human Resource Management practices from a network-level perspective, which is currently understudied. By doing so, this study adds a unique perspective to the Human Resource Management, sustainable employability and career literature streams.
The Dark Triad and cyberloafing: unveiling the shadowy nexus
Authors: Cohen Aaron , Özsoy Emrah 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
Cyberloafing has emerged as a significant phenomenon in the modern workplace, largely driven by shifts in work dynamics. Recent discussions suggest that Dark Triad traits may play a critical role in influencing cyberloafing behaviors; however, research exploring these traits in the context of cyberloafing remains limited. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the complex relationship between the Dark Triad personality traits – psychopathy, Machiavellianism and narcissism – and cyberloafing. Additionally, this study examines four other psychological variables and two demographic factors as potential correlates of cyberloafing.

Design/methodology/approach
The survey sample consisted of 155 working adults from the USA who participated via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk). All participants were required to be full-time employees (working 35 or more hours per week) and hold MTurk Master qualifications.

Findings
The findings of this study provide credible support for the research hypotheses. While not all Dark Triad traits are linked to cyberloafing, the influence of certain traits is significant enough to draw meaningful conclusions. Specifically, the results of this study showed that Machiavellianism and psychopathy were associated with both forms of cyberloafing: browsing activities and emailing activities. However, narcissism was not related to any form of cyberloafing. Additionally, pay satisfaction and social media addiction were positively related to both forms of cyberloafing, while age was negatively related.

Research limitations/implications
This paper addresses several limitations, suggests avenues for future research and outlines practical implications for organizations aiming to mitigate the adverse effects of cyberloafing.

Originality/value
Cyberloafing – engaging in non-work-related online activities during work hours – has gained increasing attention because of its potential to disrupt productivity and organizational functioning. However, limited research has explored this important behavior in depth. Building on contemporary studies, this study investigates the underlying mechanisms and potential implications of how Dark Triad traits may either encourage or mitigate cyberloafing.
Do prestigious clients result in extra fees for audit partners?
Authors: Taylor Stuart Douglas 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate whether audit partners can signal their audit quality to the market by having, gaining or losing large prestigious audit clients.

Design/methodology/approach
A hedonic audit fee model is estimated on a sample of 19.702 firm/years of Australian listed companies for the period 2013–23 with variables added to code for partners who have, gain or lose large clients at various fee thresholds.

Findings
Non Big-4 partners who have, gain or lose large clients can earn significant fee premiums from their smaller clients However, there are no significant fee premiums for Big-4 partners. The results for non Big-4 are partially explained by a “trading up” effect.

Practical implications
The results show that audit firms, particularly non Big-4 firms, can market their partners based on the prestigious clients they audit and can earn fee premiums for doing so. They also show that the market values partners who prune their client portfolios.

Originality/value
This paper shows smaller clients can make judgments about audit partner quality based on the ability of partners to attract and retain large clients and willingness to prune their client portfolios and that this will influence their willingness to pay fee premiums to be audited by such partners.
Academic integrity considerations of using ChatGPT in assessment activities among university student teachers
Authors: Obed Kipelo , Anangisye William A.L. , Sanga Philipo 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
This study aims to investigate academic integrity considerations of Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT) usage in assessment activities among the finalist student teachers at the University of Dar es Salaam. The study builds upon other previous studies on the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. However, it is unique in terms of its context and the focus on integrity.

Design/methodology/approach
A questionnaire was used to collect data from 383 finalist student teachers, and other 30 students were involved in focus group discussions (FGDs). Data for this study were analysed using IBM-SPSS Statistics Versions 25 to obtain descriptive statistics for the quantitative part and thematic analysis was used along with QDA Miner Lite for the qualitative part to generate themes.

Findings
Student teachers consider ChatGPT as a transformative AI technology to ease the accomplishment of their assessment tasks. However, a large percentage of them did not pay much attention to academic integrity while using the AI tool. About 199 (52%) out of 383 respondents said ChatGPT is a useful tool in generating answers for their assessment tasks compared to 192 (50.1%) of respondents who had negative opinions.

Research limitations/implications
Given the sensitivity of the topic on academic integrity some participants were hesitant to share information until when the researchers clarified the purpose of the study. Participants were told that the information they would provide was purely for academic purpose. Also, this study was conducted when students’ regular classes were in progress, such that it was challenging to set universal time to conduct FGDs where all intended participants could attend. The researcher was flexible enough to find hours which were conducive for participants to participate in FGDs.

Practical implications
For practitioners, given the fact that ChatGPT is a relatively new AI tool, training for raising awareness of its use should be conducted. Besides, specific academic integrity guidelines for its ethical use should be formulated and implemented. Likewise, instructors should set questions that prompt students original thinking which the AI tool cannot easily give contextualized solutions.

Social implications
The university where the AI tool is used is an open system that is within the society, and the impacts of AI technologies are inevitable in social domains. The society, therefore, should be informed about the emerging AI tools with their associated potentials and shortcomings to safeguard the norms and interests of the society.

Originality/value
The study provides a comprehensive overview of student teachers’ ChatGPT use and its implication on academic integrity. Given the novelty nature of ChatGPT use in education, course instructors and students may benefit from insights into responsible utilization of this AI technology without compromising integrity and quality of education.
Big‐Hearted Invaders: The Impacts of Range Expansion and Parasite Infection on Heart Mass in Cane Toads
Authors: Crane Hailey R. , Rollins Lee A. , Shine Richard , Brown Gregory P. 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThe invasion of cane toads (Rhinella marina) across tropical Australia has resulted in the rapid evolution of traits that enable higher rates of dispersal, and that adapt toads to hot dry climates. In anurans, a larger heart facilitates both locomotor activity and desiccation tolerance. Heart size is also often affected, either directly or indirectly, by parasite infections. To test the effects of invasion history and parasite exposure on heart size, we studied common garden‐reared toads whose parents were sourced from diverse locations, and experimentally exposed them to larvae of a nematode lungworm (Rhabdias pseudosphaerocephala). Offspring of invasion‐front parents had larger hearts than did conspecifics from long‐established populations. Exposure to infective lungworm larvae decreased heart mass in toads from all populations. Our study suggests that cardiovascular function, like other traits, has evolved rapidly during the toad invasion; and that lungworm parasites can modify the cardiovascular function and hence aerobic capacity of their host.

ABSTRACTPomacea canaliculata is recognized as a globally invasive aquatic species. Analyses of intestinal microbiota, dietary composition, and metabolism of invasive species can enhance our understanding of their feeding strategies and physiological adaptation strategies to the environment. Intestinal content samples were collected from P. canaliculata inhabiting three distinct environments including a pond, a river, and a ditch. These samples were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis and multiple metabarcoding analyses, including eukaryotic 18S rRNA, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI), and chloroplast rbcL genes. In addition, metabolomics analysis was conducted on the intestinal content samples to investigate metabolic change. The highest dietary diversity in P. canaliculata was observed in the ditch, and females exhibited a higher dietary diversity than males in the pond. The 18S rRNA gene has a high potential for identifying the dietary components of omnivorous species. The intestinal microbiota of P. canaliculata from different habitats displayed significant variations, attributed to differences in food resources and other environmental factors. Bacteria in the aquatic environment had minimal impact on the intestinal microbiota of P. canaliculata. Overall, P. canaliculata exhibited adaptive changes in physiological characteristics across different habitats, including alterations in diet, which, in turn, influence microbiota and metabolic pathways such as amino acid biosynthesis in the intestine. The present study investigated the physiological mechanisms that enable P. canaliculata to adapt to diverse habitats, considering various factors including diet, which is important for comprehending its invasive potential and the subsequent threats it poses to aquatic ecosystems.

ABSTRACTThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is a fatal disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). To date, several vaccines have been developed to combat the spread of this virus. Mucosal vaccines using food‐grade bacteria, such as Lactobacillus spp., are promising strategies for developing safe and effective vaccines against SARS‐CoV‐2. In this study, we designed a non‐GMO surface‐displayed SARS‐CoV‐2 spike S1 epitope on Limosilactobacillus fermentum‐derived bacteria‐like particles (BLPs). After that, we evaluated its efficacy to induce immune responses in immunocompetent mice. Moreover, we examined the influence of oral immunisation on the gut microbiome and microbiota metabolites. Twenty‐eight 6‐week‐old male C57BL/6 mice were orally immunised with the following: PBS (control), Lm. fermentum‐derived BLPs only, BLPs displaying SARS‐CoV‐2 spike S1‐2, or BLPs displaying SARS‐CoV‐2 spike S1‐3 epitopes. Our results showed that mucosal immunisation of mice with surface‐displayed SARS‐CoV‐2 spike epitopes provoked high‐level secretory IgA and systemic IgG production. Moreover, the immunisation exhibited a Th1‐like immune response, characterised by an elevated IgG2a‐to‐IgG1 ratio and high antiviral IFN‐γ production. In addition, we observed gut microbiome modulation and increased butyrate production in immunised mice. Overall, the use of Lm. fermentum‐derived BLPs and the anchor CshA to display SARS‐CoV‐2 spike S1epitopes is a promising novel strategy in developing a cost‐effective, non‐GMO mucosal vaccine alternative against SARS‐CoV‐2.

ABSTRACTIllegal wildlife trade is a growing problem internationally. Poaching of animals not only leads to the extinction of populations and species but also has serious consequences for ecosystems and economies. This study introduces a molecular marker system that authorities can use to detect and substantiate wildlife trafficking. SNPSTR markers combine short tandem repeats with single nucleotide polymorphisms within an amplicon to increase discriminatory power. Within the FOGS (Forensic Genetics for Species Protection) project, we have established SNPSTR marker sets for 74 vertebrate species. On average, each set consists of 19 SNPSTR markers with 82 SNPs per set. More than 1300 SNPSTR markers and over 300 STR markers were identified. Also, through its biobanking pipeline, the FOGS project enabled the cryopreservation of somatic cells from 91 vertebrate species as well as viable tissues for later cell initiation from a further 109 species, providing future strategies for ex situ conservation. In addition, many more fixed tissues and DNA samples of endangered species were biobanked. Therefore, FOGS was an interdisciplinary study, combining molecular wildlife forensics and conservation tools. The SNPSTR sets and cell culture information are accessible through the FOGS database (https://fogs‐portal.de/data) that is open to scientists, researchers, breeders and authorities worldwide to protect wildlife from illegal trade.
