Perceptions of asset managers on corporate social responsibility challenges and opportunities
Authors: Nel Kara , Erasmus Pierre D. , Mans-Kemp Nadia 
Published: January 2025

Purpose: Companies and investors in South Africa are challenged with multiple sustainability concerns. Asset managers have substantial power to motivate investee companies to focus on pressing corporate social responsibility (CSR) issues. Yet, there is limited scholarly evidence on how they process CSR information and which sustainability considerations influence their decisions. Therefore, the CSR challenges and opportunities that selected South African asset managers experience were explored.Design/methodology/approach: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 26 South African asset managers. Thematic analysis was conducted to derive four main themes.Findings/results: Four considerations were identified on which the considered asset managers based their responsible investment decisions when reflecting on CSR practices. Firstly, CSR should form part of a company’s primary purpose. Secondly, the interviewees focussed on material industry-specific CSR risks when making investment decisions. Thirdly, the inclusion of CSR practices in asset managers’ decision-making was hindered by the relatively small South African investable market, a limited demand for responsible investments from asset owners and beneficiaries, and insufficient disclosure of material sustainability information. Lastly, the interviewees highlighted social and economic infrastructure investment opportunities. Furthermore, they mentioned that CSR practices can be improved by refined regulation and educating asset owners and beneficiaries.Practical implications: Corporate leaders are urged to increasingly engage with asset managers and collaborate with stakeholders from the private sector to address prominent sustainability issues and to capitalise on related opportunities.Originality/value: This research contributes four considerations to the limited body of knowledge on the unique CSR challenges and opportunities pertaining to the investment decisions of an influential stakeholder group, namely asset managers in South Africa.

Published: January 2025

Objective:
To explore the perspectives of high-risk pregnant women regarding the home care program for high-risk pregnancies.

Methods:
This qualitative study was conducted in a university hospital and 5 comprehensive health centers in Ahvaz, Iran, from February 2023 to July 2023. The sampling method used was purposive sampling considering the maximum possible diversity, which continued until data saturation. 11 in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted with high-risk pregnant women. Data were simultaneously analysed using Graneheim and Lundman content analysis by MAXQDA version 20 software.

Results:
Data analysis extracted 3 themes, 12 categories, and 26 subcategories. The themes and categories were “high-risk pregnancy and related issues (pursuing treatment and paying attention to the high-risk situation by pregnant women, psychological aspect of high-risk pregnancy on pregnant women and caregivers, emotional and physical aspects of high-risk pregnancy, the consequences of high-risk pregnancy on the people around them and empowerment of high-risk pregnant women)”, “support dimension (family and community support for high-risk pregnant women)”, and “framework of program (acculturalization, means and equipment, security, manpower and the necessary arrangements for the home care)”.

Conclusions:
High-risk pregnancy affects various aspects of the lives of high-risk pregnant women and their families. Creating the necessary conditions for providing care at home plays a vital role in supporting high-risk pregnant women and removing related obstacles to receiving prenatal care in person. It will be especially beneficial for high-risk pregnant women in low-income areas.
Evaluation of systemic factors in age-related macular degeneration at a tertiary care hospital in Uttarakhand, India
Authors: Vats Vatsala , Shakeel Tarannum , Singh Amanjot 
Published: January 2025

Abstract

Background:
Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) is a degenerative disease associated with aging, with a higher prevalence in regions such as Africa (17.4%). Reported prevalence in various Indian studies ranges from 1.1% in southern India to 4.7% in northern India. Smoking, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HTN), and body mass index (BMI) are the factors that have been correlated with ARMD.

Aim and Objective:
This study aims to evaluate the association of systemic factors such as smoking, DM, HTN, and BMI with ARMD.

Materials and Methods:
It is a hospital-based cross-sectional study with patients aged over 40 years visiting the outpatient ophthalmology department who were screened for ARMD for a duration of 6 months from January 2024 to June 2024. All patients aged over 40 years were screened for ARMD. Patients with ocular trauma, congenital ocular anomalies, immunocompromised status, or active ocular inflammation were excluded from the study. The presence of even a single “Drusen” in the macula was considered the diagnostic criterion for ARMD. Diagnosed cases of ARMD were assessed for DM, HTN, BMI, and smoking. The data were recorded and analyzed to identify any associations.

Results:
The prevalence of ARMD among patients screened over 1 year was found to be 1.40%. Among 40 patients with ARMD, 24 (60%) patients reported a positive history of smoking, which was statistically significant with a P value of 0.00442. Out of the 40 patients, 37 (92.5%) patients had a BMI within the normal range of 18.5–24.9 kg/m2. No significant association was found between BMI, DM, and HTN with ARMD in this study.

Conclusion:
Our study from Uttarakhand indicates a low prevalence of ARMD and shows a positive and significant association with smoking. Furthermore, evaluation of other systemic factors is required to provide more consistent evidence of correlation.

Zwischen Emanzipation und Emigration: Das Modehaus Gebr. Robinsohn am Neuen Wall
Authors: Steckmest Sylvia 
Published: January 2025

Die Geschichte vom Aufstieg und der Zerstörung des größten Hamburger Modehauses.

1889 siedelte Leo Robinsohn von der Provinz Posen nach Frankfurt a. M. über und gründete dort die Firma »Gebr. Robinsohn«. Drei Jahre später machte er sich auf den Weg nach Hamburg, wo er auf der Bleichenbrücke ein Geschäft eröffnete, das kontinuierlich expandierte und schon bald zum führenden Modehaus für Damen in der Hansestadt wurde. Seit 1901 befand es sich am Neuen Wall.
Leo und – seit 1894 – sein Bruder Max Robinsohn waren zunächst alleinige Eigentümer, in späteren Jahren traten dann ihre Söhne in die Firma ein, die auch Modelle und Hüte anfertigte und in ihrer Hochphase über 700 Mitarbeiter beschäftigte.
Mit der Machtübernahme der Nationalsozialisten änderte sich alles. Spätestens seit der brutalen Zerstörung des Modehauses am 9. November 1938 war den Eigentümern klar, dass nichts mehr zu retten war. Die beiden Seniorchefs wurden inhaftiert, später wieder freigelassen. Hans Robinsohn, der Sohn von Max, floh mit seiner Familie nach Dänemark und später nach Malmö, wo bereits seine Eltern lebten. Leo Robinsohn und seine Frau konnten nach Paris entkommen. Die Firma wurde im März 1939 »arisiert« und weit unter Wert verkauft. Nach Kriegsende kam es zur Restitution, sodass das Grundstück am Neuen Wall noch lange im Familienbesitz blieb.

Authors: Hassan Abdulwadod S. A. , Nordin Norshahrizan , Azmin Adi Anuar , Al-Nabae Majid , Al-Hosaini Fahmi Fadhl 
Published: January 2025

Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of organisational culture (OC) and leadership (LS) on performance measurement (PM) in the Yemen constriction sector. It aims to examine the direct effects of control-oriented culture (COC) and flexible-oriented culture (FOC) on PM and their moderating influence on the relationship between LS and PM.

Theoretical Framework: This topic presents the main concepts and theories that underpin the research. The Competing Values Framework (CVF), leadership theory, and contingency theory stand out, providing a solid basis for understanding how OC and LS affect PM in the dynamic construction sector.

Method: This research adopted a quantitative approach using a questionnaire survey tool. Data was collected from managers and engineers of 171 construction firms in Yemen and analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (SEM-PLS) and SPSS tools.

Results and Discussion: The results reveal that while COC and FOC significantly affect PM, LS has no direct impact. In addition, the study found that COC plays a moderating role in the relationship between LS and PM. However, FOC does not have such an effect.

Research Implications: The results underscore the importance of adopting culturally aligned leadership strategies to improve PM and address the unique challenges in Yemen’s construction industry. These strategies also contribute to achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs), especially improving infrastructure and creating job opportunities.

Originality/Value: This study contributes to the theory by emphasising the complementary roles of flexibility and control in shaping PM. It offers practical recommendations for enhancing leadership and performance measurement in dynamic, resource-constrained environments.

Authors: Thanh Tran Cong , Nguyen Phuong Mai , Ho Nguyen-Nhu-Y , Hanh Nguyen Thi Hong , Son Tran Lam , Hang Hoang Minh 
Published: January 2025

Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the key factors influencing the commitment to digital transformation (DT) of Vietnamese small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Theoretical Framework: A model of influencing factors on digital transformation commitment was developed and verified using the resource-based view and institutional theories.

Method: This study surveyed 85 Vietnamese SMEs (43 manufacturing enterprises and 42 service enterprises) and used SPSS software to test the relationships between institutional factors (international and national governance, competitors, and customers), firm resources (finance resources, digital technology, human resource, and digital leadership) and firm commitment to digital transformation across various manufacturing and service industries.

Results and Discussions: The empirical results show that governance pressure, human resources, and digital technology are among the key influencing factors in Vietnamese SMEs’ commitment to digital transformation. Furthermore, Vietnamese SMEs commit more to digital transformation due to their engagement with international trade and digital technology resources. Customers and competitors have no effect on the firm’s commitment to digital transformation.

Research implications: The study implies that Vietnamese SMEs engage with digital transformation due to international and national encouragement, their digital technology and human resource capabilities rather than the pressures from customers and competitors.

Originality/Value: Research on DT in Vietnamese SMEs is still lacking. This study contributes to explaining why some Vietnamese SMEs commit to digital transformation while others do not. It distinguishes the external and internal factors driving Vietnamese SMEs’ digital transformation commitment.

Authors: Perdana Glady Sukma , Ilham Ilham , Alben Ary Suud Cahyo , Orhan Bekir Erhan , Geantă Vlad Adrian 
Published: January 2025

Background: Physical fitness is a key component of overall health, particularly for students in physical education programs. Outdoor-based physical training has been explored to enhance specific fitness components, including VO2max, muscle endurance, and leg explosive power. However, evidence on its effectiveness remains limited, particularly in areas such as leg power. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an 8-week outdoor-based physical training program on VO2max, arm muscle endurance, abdominal endurance, and leg muscle power in first-year male students. Materials and Methods: A pre-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. Thirty-three first-year students from the Physical Education, Health, and Recreation program at Bung Hatta University were selected using purposive sampling. Physical fitness was assessed before and after the intervention. The following tests were used: VO2max via the bleep test, arm endurance with the 1-minute push-up test, abdominal endurance with the 1-minute sit-up test, and leg power with the standing broad jump test. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests, conducted with Microsoft Excel and SPSS version 25. Results: Significant improvements were observed in VO2max (t = -9.077, p < 0.001), arm endurance (t = -8.433, p < .001), and abdominal endurance (t = -6.571, p < 0.001). However, no significant change was found in leg muscle power (t = 0.924, p = 0.362). Conclusion: Outdoor-based physical training effectively enhances VO2max and muscle endurance. However, it may require a longer duration or increased intensity to improve leg explosive power. This differentiates the program from conventional indoor training methods by emphasizing adaptability and engagement in outdoor settings. Further adjustments to the training program are recommended to optimize overall physical fitness improvements.
