Presenting products on websites – the importance of information quality criteria for online shoppers
Authors: Amsl Sarah , Watson Iain , Teller Christoph , Wood Steve 
Published: July 2023

PurposeOnline shoppers make product purchase decisions based on product information shown on a retailer's website and potentially in comparison to that seen on competitors' websites. Insufficient, poor quality or missing information about a product can lead to reduced retailer sales. Measuring online product information quality (PIQ) is therefore an essential element in helping retailers maximize their potential success. This paper aims (1) to identify directly quantifiable PIQ criteria, (2) to assess the effects of PIQ and (3) to evaluate the moderating effect of product involvement.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a scenario-based experiment within 3,544 do-it-yourself (DIY) online shoppers from the United Kingdom (UK). Within an 8 × 2 × 2 between-subjects design, the authors manipulated the factors PIQ criteria (8), PIQ level (2) and product type (2).FindingsThe findings support that poor PIQ has a negative impact on consumers online shopping outcomes. The authors also found that the effects of PIQ differ between the various criteria, the product category and the level of consumer involvement in the selling process. In the context of product depiction, title readability and product attribute comparability with other retailers' websites a high level of PIQ is required. Moreover, high involvement products need a higher level of PIQ than low involvement products.Originality/valueThis research expands website quality and service failure literature by introducing PIQ criteria and its effects in the context of online retailing. The authors also establish actionable managerial recommendations to assist retailers to embrace and utilize PIQ to better understand their own potential website and thus business improvements.
Understanding the determinants of technology upgrade: an integration of retrospective and prospective perspectives
Authors: Zhang Yan , Wang Nan , Sun Yongqiang 
Published: July 2023

PurposeTechnology upgrade has been adopted as a strategy for technology vendors to modify and improve their incumbent technologies. However, user resistance is widespread in practice. In order to understand user technology upgrade behavior, this study integrates the retrospective and prospective sides of actions and proposes an inertia-mindfulness ambidexterity perspective to explore the antecedents of technology upgrade.Design/methodology/approachAn online survey was conducted to collect data from 520 Microsoft Windows users to test this research model. Structural equation modeling (SEM) approach was used to evaluate measurement model and structural model.FindingsInertia can induce individuals' psychological reactance and thus reduce their intention to upgrade. In contrast, mindfulness can decrease users' psychological reactance and then motivate them to upgrade to a new version of technology. Finally, individuals' dissatisfaction with the current version of technology would weaken the negative impact of psychological reactance on upgrade intention.Originality/valueThis study generates an inertia-mindfulness ambidexterity perspective to investigate the factors that influence user technology upgrade intention from both retrospective and prospective sides and then identifies psychological reactance as underlying mechanism to explain how inertia and mindfulness work. Finally, this study posits that user dissatisfaction with current version of technology can moderate the relationship between psychological reactance and technology upgrade intention.
The impact of tighter banking regulation on bank loan loss provisioning: empirical evidence from a quasi-natural experiment
Authors: Luu Hiep Ngoc , Vu Phuong-Tra , Nguyen Dung Thuy Thi , Hoang Thinh Gia 
Published: July 2023

Purpose
The paper aims to examine the impact of tighter banking regulation on banks’ loan loss provisioning in an emerging market context.

Design/methodology/approach
The authors exploit the adoption of the Basel II Accord in Vietnam as a quasi-natural experiment and use Difference-to-Difference (DiD) method to examine the impact of tighter banking regulation on Vietnamese banks’ provisioning during the period of 2010–2019.

Findings
The paper finds that affected banks (i.e. those taking part in the pilot adoption programme) manage to reduce their provisions significantly compared to their control peers in the post-adoption period. More importantly, this paper further finds that the affected banks manage their provisions primarily for incomes smoothing and signalling. This paper also finds that those banks expand their lending significantly and experience an increase in financial performance in the post-adoption period. Overall, the results provide supports for the “borrowing from the future” proposition that banks may perceive that a tighter banking regulation provides them with growth opportunities, so they have the tendency to manipulate their provisions to facilitate their current income.

Originality/value
This paper contributes to the established literature on the manipulation of bank provisioning as well as the impact of banking regulation, and especially Basel II on bank economic decisions. As compared to prior literature, the adoption of Basel II in Vietnam provided an ideal shock for us to conduct a DiD design to estimate the causal impact of tighter banking regulation on banks’ provisioning practices.
Healthcare professionals learning when implementing a digital artefact identifying patients’ cognitive impairment
Authors: Svensson Ann , Gustavsson Linn , Svenningsson Irene , Karlsson Christina , Karlsson Tina 
Published: July 2023

Purpose
This paper presents findings from a qualitative study of healthcare professionals’ practice, where learning is taking place when a digital artefact is implemented for identification of patients’ cognitive impairment. The use of digital artefacts is increasing in various workplaces, to include professionals in healthcare. This paper aims to explore the following research question: How is the professional learning unfolding in patient-based work when a digital artefact transforms the practice?

Design/methodology/approach
Various data collection methods are used for this study, consisting of dialogue meetings, interviews and a reference-group meeting. Thematic analysis is used to inductively bring forth the themes of the collected data.

Findings
Professionals’ knowledge and experience are of vital importance in learning and changing work practices. Together with their ability to reflect on changes, their knowledge and experience constitute the prefiguration when the introduction of a digital application brings about indeterminacy in the work practice.

Originality/value
This paper makes a contribution to practice-based research as it consolidates previous research and identifies professionals knowledge and learning in a healthcare context. This can be used to further explore and advance the field, as well as to establish the evidence-based importance of transforming practices based on implementation of digital artefacts.
Meaningful leadership and sustainable HRM: catalysts for follower calling – a moderated mediational model
Authors: Ahmad Jamil , Fatima Seerat 
Published: July 2023

PurposeThe aim of the study is to identify the ways of making work a calling for employees. Based on signaling theory, the authors present an integrated model to develop calling in employees by finding an indirect effect of meaningful leadership on calling through sustainable human resource management (SHRM) practices. Furthermore, the authors predict that meaningful work will moderate this mediating effect.Design/methodology/approachIn a three-wave time-lagged study, the authors followed 187 workers from multiple organizations across Pakistan to examine how meaningful leadership influences employee calling through SHRM practices in the form of signals. The authors established that this indirect effect is stronger when employees perceive their work as meaningful. The authors used structural equation modeling in MPlus to test a moderated mediational model.FindingsThe results show that meaningful leadership is positively related to calling through SHRM practices, and meaningful work significantly moderates this mediating relationship. Specifically, the indirect effect of meaningful leadership is stronger when meaningful work is high.Originality/valueThe study substantiates the high importance of meaningful leadership as a signaler and provides insight into the mechanism of meaningful work as a contingency to develop a calling. The uniqueness of the study lies in testing meaningful leadership empirically and identifying external antecedents of calling among employees.
Work arrangement “yo-yo”: forced flexibility from the office to home and back again
Authors: Jogulu Uma , Green Nicola , Franken Esme , Vassiley Alexis , Bentley Tim , Onnis Leigh-ann 
Published: July 2023

PurposeThis study explored one form of remote working – work from home – to understand the impact of work disruptions on workers and human resource management (HRM) practice and therefore how to adapt to future crises. Specifically, the purpose is to understand the impact of events on employees when they are forced to move back and forth (yo-yoing) between work from home and a central office, using the case of Perth, Western Australia (WA).Design/methodology/approachThirty-nine interviews with leaders, managers and co-workers working in private and public organisations suggest that forced changes to work arrangements affect job content and demands, well-being and potentially career trajectories.FindingsThe authors critically applied and developed the tenets of event system theory (EST) (novelty, disruption and criticality) by analysing an ongoing or “long” event rather than a discrete or time-limited one. The study found that the work-from-home experience influenced the individual perception of whether remote working would suit employees in the future, potentially influencing career paths. In addition, the selection of locations to live, preferred properties (e.g. home office space) and access to services (e.g. broadband infrastructure) has also become dominant features of work decisions.Research limitations/implicationsWhile the study generated rich data, it is not without limitations. The participants were from one Australian state which may not reflect the COVID-19 experiences of other jurisdictions. In addition, the participants were mostly female so this may offer a different perspective than a more gender-balanced sample. The study was limited to the perspectives of employees and middle managers.Practical implicationsThe authors note three areas of implications for practitioners. First, the findings suggest that strong organisational and HRM support assists employees to cope well with change. Second, the importance of technological and social preparedness in improving employee experiences highlights the role of HRM in job design. Third, it is key that salient events are recognised as potential determinants of career pathways.Originality/valueThe evidence from this research broadens the application of EST showing that forced flexibility has an influence on work arrangements by influencing a series of changes in features of work and experiences of employees. As such, this impacts employee's well-being and potentially future career decisions.
Phenological growth stages of Gleditsia sinensis Lam. (Fabaceae) using the extended BBCH scale

AbstractGleditsia sinensis is a species endemic to China, an ecologically economic multipurpose tree with great development potential, which could be used as medicine, food, industrial materials and wood. It is well known that the standardized description of plant development stages according to their phenological characteristics not only is crucial for conduct of various agronomic practices, but also facilitates the exchange of new findings based on the same understanding of the plant. However, a uniform phenology scale of G. sinensis has rarely been reported, despite its expanding plant area and rapid development of this industry over the past few years. Thus, phenological events of G. sinensis were monitored based on the BBCH scale during two consecutive years in this study. Eight of the 10 BBCH stages described in detail by combining numbers and letters based on its species characteristic were accurately recorded, including bud development (0), leaf development (1), shoot development (3), inflorescence emergence (5), flowering (6), pod development (7), maturity of pod (8) and senescence (9). As far as we know, it is the first time that a special phenological rhythm for G. sinensis has been developed using an extended BBCH scale, which not only provides the basis for other basic research, but also assists growers in conducting planting management practices.
Sebaceous carcinoma in Western Australia: A registry‐based study of site‐related outcomes
Authors: Hillan Adeline , Korbl Jasmin , Wood Benjamin Andrew , Trevithick Richard , Harvey Nathan Tobias 
Published: July 2023

AbstractSebaceous carcinoma is a rare cutaneous malignancy which is typically regarded as relatively aggressive and has traditionally been subdivided into periorbital or extraorbital tumours. We conducted a retrospective review of all cases of sebaceous carcinoma reported to the Western Australian Cancer Registry between 1987 and May 2019. The incidence of sebaceous carcinoma in Western Australia has increased over the last three decades, with extraorbital tumours being much more common than periorbital tumours. Very few sebaceous carcinomas have led directly to the death of patients; however, adverse outcomes were more likely with periorbital tumours, in particular local recurrence and the need for major surgical intervention.
Corporate environmental efforts, government environmental subsidies, and corporate non‐environmental R&D intensity: Evidence from listed firms
Authors: Chen Weihong , Lv David Diwei , Wong Christina W. Y. 
Published: July 2023

AbstractDrawing on the behavioral theory, this study examines how the misalignment between a firm's environmental effort and the level of subsidies received from the government in affecting the firm's investment in non‐environmental R&D. Based on a sample of Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2019 and using polynomial regression techniques, our findings reveal that firms in the “low effort‐high subsidies” group exhibit lower non‐environmental R&D intensity compared to firms in the “high effort‐low subsidies” group. This study contributes to the literature by shedding light on the interplay between corporate environmental efforts, government subsidies, and non‐environmental R&D investment. The findings suggest the importance of aligning the environmental efforts of firms with subsidy levels from the government to effectively allocate resources for different types of R&D. The implications of this research suggest that firms should carefully consider aligning their environmental efforts with government subsidies to optimize their investment in non‐environmental R&D and overall innovation strategy. Furthermore, the study indicates that firms and governments should prudently balance the relationship between environmental R&D and non‐environmental R&D to avoid any negative impact on the latter.

ObjectivesTo compare radiographic progression‐free survival (rPFS), overall survival (OS), and treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs) among patients with metastatic castrate‐resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) receiving a combination of first‐line poly(adenosine diphosphate‐ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) plus androgen receptor axis‐targeted agents (ARAT) vs placebo/ARAT.Materials and MethodsWe conducted a systematic review/meta‐analysis of all published Phase III randomised controlled trials using EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane (inception until 6 June 2023). Published full‐text manuscripts and conference abstracts were inclusion eligible. Study selection/data extraction were independently performed by two authors. The Cochrane Risk‐of‐Bias 2 Tool was used, and certainty of evidence assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations framework. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and relative risks, with corresponding confidence intervals (CIs), were generated using random‐effects models.ResultsThree trials were identified: PROpel, MAGNITUDE, and TALAPRO‐2. Compared to placebo/ARAT, the PARPi/ARAT combination was associated with a 35% rPFS improvement in the overall cohort (HR 0.65, 95% CI 0.56–0.76), with 68%, 45%, and 26% improvements in the BReast CAncer gene 1/gene 2 (BRCA1/2)‐mutated (BRCA1/2m; P < 0.001), homologous recombination repair‐mutated (HRRm; P < 0.001), and non‐HRRm cohorts (P = 0.003), respectively. OS data maturity ranged from 31% to 48%, with overall cohort OS data unavailable from MAGNITUDE. The PROpel/TALAPRO‐2 pooled analysis demonstrated a 16% OS improvement in the overall cohort (HR 0.84, 95 CI 0.72–0.98; P = 0.02). OS in the HRRm (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.61–0.95) and the BRCA1/2m cohorts (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.18–1.56) were improved, with a higher effect magnitude compared to the overall cohort. This combination was associated with a 45% relative risk increase in Grade ≥3 TEAEs, including 6.22‐fold for Grade ≥3 anaemia (31.9% vs 4.9%).ConclusionsThe addition of PARPi to ARAT in the first‐line mCRPC setting is associated with rPFS benefits across subgroups, with the greatest magnitude of benefit in BRCA1/2m patients. OS benefits remain inconsistent irrespective of HRRm status, with significant increases in Grade ≥3 TEAEs, particularly anaemia. Currently, we suggest this combined approach be selectively offered to HRRm patients, preferentially BRCA1/2m.

AbstractIntroductionTobramycin inhalation solution (TIS) is a treatment option for patients with frequent exacerbations of bronchiectasis. A possible side effect of TIS is the development of chronic cough and bronchospasm, whereby the guidelines suggest a (in hospital) tolerance test with the first dose of TIS. However, data on respiratory adverse events are not consistent. In the present analysis from the BATTLE study (NCT02657473), we evaluated the added value of the tolerance test and aimed to observe the development of inhaled treatment related bronchial hyperreactivity.MethodsFifty‐seven patients from the BATTLE study were analyzed. Patients were randomized to receive TIS or placebo OD for 1 year. A tolerance test was performed with spirometry measurements before and after the first dose and with a bronchodilator in advance. Adverse events were strictly monitored.ResultsFifty‐seven patients (100%) passed the tolerance test with no decrease in spirometry measurements or development of local intolerability. During the study treatment, a total of five TIS‐treated patients (17.8%) withdrew due to airway hyperresponsiveness after a mean of 9.2 (SD13.9) weeks and one placebo‐treated patient (3.5%) after 2 weeks (TIS vs. placebo; p = 0.66). The other TIS‐related adverse events were not clinically significant.ConclusionThe use of inhaled medication is well tolerated in the heterogenous bronchiectasis population, without signs of airway hyperresponsiveness after the first dose of inhaled medication. From this observation, it can be concluded that there is no additional value for this advised tolerance test. However, closely monitoring on adverse effects during the first weeks after starting TIS is recommended.

Published: July 2023

AbstractTreatment adherence is an underestimated determinant of treatment success. Poor treatment adherence can also affect the efficacy of clinical trials. A combination of multiple adherence‐monitoring methods is required to ensure robustness. We investigated whether multiple adherence‐monitoring methods, including a novel smartwatch‐based monitoring method, would yield reliable and concordant results. In this open, randomized, decentralized clinical trial, vitamin D‐deficient individuals were randomized to an App − only group (an electronic medication diary) or an App + Watch group (i.e., App and smartwatch‐based monitoring) groups after a week run‐in period. The participants received vitamin D supplements (1000 IU) for 12 weeks (two consecutive periods of 6 weeks) with two pill counts (at the sixth week) and biweekly blood samplings for serum 25(OH) vitamin D concentration. Adherence was assessed and compared between the methods. Sixteen participants were enrolled, of which 13 completed the study. Serum 25(OH) vitamin D levels comparably increased in both groups until the first 7 weeks but trended higher in the App + Watch group in the second period. The number of doses recorded by the pill count and App did not differ significantly between the run‐in and Period 1 (p = 0.5534) but became significantly discrepant in Period 2 (p = 0.0225). In contrast, the concordance for smartwatch‐based monitoring was consistent in either period (p = 0.5898 and p = 0.5839, respectively). We explored multiple adherence‐monitoring methods in this pilot feasibility clinical study. Smartwatch‐based adherence monitoring may be an objective and sensitive method for measuring treatment adherence.
