Authors: Hegazy Mohamed , El-Deeb Mohamed Samy , Hamdy Hosny Ibrahim , Halim Yasser Tawfik 
Published: January 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to examine the effect of the auditors’ burnout determinates on audit quality and performance. It also analyses whether the demographic characteristics of gender, age group, education and job positions affect auditors’ decisions for burnout, audit quality and performance.

Design/methodology/approach
A questionnaire was distributed on a sample of auditors in the top ten auditing firms in an emerging market including the Big 4. Factor analysis, correlation matrix and structural equation modeling were used for the analysis of the collected data and testing the developed hypotheses.

Findings
The results show that burnout has negative consequences for both the auditor and the auditing firm. While good organizational climate has a negative significant association with audit quality, nonethical decisions and audit performance, role clarity has positive significant association with the audit quality and performance and has an insignificant association with nonethical decisions. Also, turnover intention has significant positive association with nonethical decision, audit quality and performance.

Originality/value
This research is among the first to focus on auditor’s burnout determinates on audit quality and performance in an emerging market characterized by different socioeconomic, political and cultural factors compared with those of developed markets. Auditors, regulators and professional policymakers can benefit from the results of this research.
Does startup culture in the emerging country grow around societal sustainability? An empirical study through the lens of co-creational capital and green intellect

Published: January 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the role of green intellectual capital in fostering societal sustainability. Also, this study investigated how co-creational customer capital mediates the relationship between green intellectual capital and societal sustainability. The paper draws attention to co-creating customer capital and understanding its impact on societal sustainability in high-contact service startups.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from responses from 376 high-contact service startup firms headquartered in the Indian subcontinent, particularly emerging markets. The proposed conceptual model was analyzed using the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach. The analysis is based on primary data obtained from strategic-level employees.FindingsThe results highlight the impact of co-creational customer capital in the Green Intellectual Capital – Societal Sustainability (GICS) model. Green intellectual capital components significantly influence societal sustainability outcomes in the existence of co-created customer values. It establishes customer capital as an essential factor that mediates the relationship between green intellectual capital and societal sustainability.Research limitations/implicationsThis research provides conceptualization and subsequent investigation of customer value creation in service-led startups. The construct co-creation is more appropriate for the service industry in common.Practical implicationsThis paper establishes co-created customer capital as an enabler in transforming underlying components of green intellectual capital into societal sustainability measures. Firms may generate higher customer value by pooling green human and relational capital along with active customer response and shared knowledge. This creates an organizational asset termed co-created customer capital specific to service industries.Originality/valueThe article proposes a novel way to analyze customer value in service organizations. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, no study has looked at how co-creational customer capital could act as a mediator between green intellectual capital and societal sustainability in the service industry context, particularly for SMEs and startups from emerging economies. Co-created customer capital may be used as an instrument to overcome managerial challenges in the context of transforming green intellectual capital into societal capital.
Unpacking the relationship between customer citizenship behavior and dysfunctional customer behavior: the role of customer moral credits and entitlement
Authors: Gong Taeshik , Wang Chen-Ya 
Published: January 2023

PurposeWhile the positive effects of customer citizenship behavior are well established, research on its potential negative consequences is scarce. This study aims to examine the indirect relationship between customer citizenship and dysfunctional customers via customer moral credits and entitlement, as well as the moderating influence of customer citizenship fatigue.Design/methodology/approachStudy 1 employed a cross-sectional design with a self-administered survey. The data were collected from 314 customers using an online research panel. In Study 2, the authors manipulated customer citizenship behavior using 203 participants to establish causality and rule out alternative explanations of the findings of Study 1. In Study 3, the authors replicated Study 2 and enhanced internal validity by using a more controlled experimental design using 128 participants.FindingsThis study shows that when customer citizenship fatigue is high, customer citizenship behavior elicits customer moral credit, which leads to customer entitlement and, in turn, promotes dysfunctional customer behavior. Conversely, when customer citizenship fatigue is low, customer citizenship behavior does not generate moral credit or entitlement, preventing dysfunctional customer behavior.Practical implicationsThe study shows that promoting customer citizenship behavior does not always lead to positive outcomes. Therefore, when promoting customer citizenship behavior, managers should consider the psychological licensing process and ways to mitigate the influence of moral credits.Originality/valueThis study challenges common wisdom and investigates the dark side of customer citizenship behavior. Specifically, it demonstrates that customer citizenship behavior could backfire (e.g. dysfunctional customer behavior). It also shows that only customers who experience a high level of fatigue from their citizenship behaviors are psychologically licensed to gain moral credit, leading to dysfunctional customer behavior.
Which is better? Business models of partial and cross ownership in an NEV supply chain

Published: January 2023

PurposeTo examine how shareholding affects optimal profits, R&D innovation, NEV market scale and social welfare in two supply chain models with partial and cross ownership patterns.Design/methodology/approachThe gradual retreat of government subsidies has directly weakened the financial support available to the stakeholders of new energy vehicles (NEVs). In this context, upstream and downstream enterprises of NEV are constantly seeking new business models of cooperation to achieve possible win-wins. NEV supply chain shareholding is an emerging new practice for such explorations. However, its performance in the NEV supply chain is seldom investigated. In this paper, we employ a Stackelberg game model to investigate how partial and cross-ownership affect the optimal decisions in a NEV supply chain.FindingsResults showed that: (1) Compared with the unilateral shareholding model, the battery supplier will benefit from cross-ownership in the supply chain, while the NEV manufacturer will not necessarily benefit from it. At the same time, cross-ownership will bring the greatest incentive for battery R&D (2) Supply chain downstream competition will not necessarily lead to the improvement of the total consumption of NEVs or the level of battery design. Pareto improvement can be brought only when one of the manufacturers holds less than a certain equity threshold. In addition, downstream competition will also not necessarily bring more benefits to the battery supplier.Originality/valueAt present, NEV supply chain management has attracted widespread attention from scholars from all walks of life. Previous studies have been carried out that covers topics such as pricing strategies and optimal profits and the role of NEV in the sustainable development of the automotive industry supply chain, or disparate impacts of government subsidies and carbon emission regulation on supply chain members. However, as far as the authors know, compared with the new emerging NEV corporate practice, the shareholding phenomenon between upstream and downstream in the supply chain of NEV has not been studied in the existing studies.
Genetic variability and plasticity of plant allometry
Authors: Vasseur François , Violle Cyrille , Enquist Brian J. , Vile Denis 
Published: January 2023

Abstract

The metabolic scaling theory (MST) predicts quasi‐universal trait–size relationships in plants, characterised by a unique allometric exponent within and across large taxonomic scales. However, recent studies have identified variability in allometric relationships, without a clear understanding of the modulating role played by genetic variation and environment.

Here, we investigated (1) the allometric relationships for two central traits of MST, namely total leaf area and plant growth rate, in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana, (2) the variability of plant allometries between genotypes and (3) the plastic responses of plant allometries under water deficit, high temperature and their interaction.

Using a population of 120 genotypes, we found that intraspecific allometries adhered on average with MST predictions. However, a broad variability but a moderate plasticity in the allometric exponents was observed across genotypes and environments. Allometric exponents were impacted significantly, yet weakly, by water deficit, but not by high temperature. Moreover, genotypes that deviated from MST predictions exhibited more plasticity in trait–size relationships than genotypes that followed MST predictions.

Our study suggests that plant allometry is genetically variable and might be related to different adaptive strategies to cope with stressing conditions. Thus, our results highlights the need of assessing trait–size relationships within species to understand the mechanisms of plant adaptation to contrasted environments.

Drill‐bit position monitoring using seismic‐while‐drilling data; numerical and field examples from Sweden
Authors: Wilczynski Zbigniew , Kaslilar Ayse , Ivandic Monika , Juhlin Christopher 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThe undesired drill‐bit deviation is a source of drilling risks and requires monitoring. Seismic‐while‐drilling is one potential method to achieve this and has been tested in a number of previous studies. In August 2020 in Örebro, Sweden, we conducted an experiment to test the feasibility of seismic‐while‐drilling drill‐bit positioning and other applications of the method. We used the hammer drill‐bit signal generated while drilling a 200 m deep well in hardrock conditions and implemented vertical stacking of the subsequent impulsive signals from the hammer source, generating enhanced direct arrivals from the drill‐bit. Then, we used the relative arrival times to estimate the drill‐bit position for selected bit depths, confirming our methodology with two numerical studies. We successfully estimated the position of the drill‐bit for the numerical examples and for several of the real data examples, with the accuracy dependent on the receiver array geometry and the quality of the data. We conclude that this drill‐bit positioning method shows potential for near‐real‐time monitoring in drilling operations that could be applicable for both impulsive and noise‐retrieved drill‐bit signals.

AbstractObjectiveInvestigate associations between pre‐pregnancy participation and performance in a demanding cross‐country ski race (proxy for exercise volume and fitness) and perinatal outcomes. Pre‐registered protocol: osf.io/aywg2.DesignProspective cohort study.SettingBased on entire overlap between the Vasaloppet registry and the population‐based Swedish Pregnancy Register.SampleAll female Vasaloppet participants 1991–2017 with subsequent singleton delivery (skiers), and age‐ and county‐matched non‐skiers.MethodsWe calculated odds ratios (ORs) for non‐skiers versus skiers (model 1) and, among skiers, by performance (model 2), in Bayesian logistic regressions adjusted for socio‐demographics, lifestyle factors, and comorbidities. We repeated calculations adjusting for early pregnancy body mass index (potential mediator) and explored robustness (selection/exposure settings; multiple comparisons correction).Main outcome measuresTwenty‐nine important perinatal outcomes, predefined based on existing expert consensus.ResultsNon‐skiers (n = 194 384) versus skiers (n = 15 377) (and slower versus faster performance, not shown) consistently had higher odds of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) (OR 1.70, 95% highest density interval: 1.40–2.09), excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) (1.28, 1.22–1.38), psychiatric morbidity (1.60, 1.49–1.72), any caesarean section (CS) (1.34, 1.28–1.40), elective CS (1.39, 1.29–1.49), and large‐for‐gestational‐age babies (>90th percentile, 1.11, 1.04–1.18); lower odds of inadequate GWG (0.83, 0.79–0.88); and no associations with fetal/neonatal complications (e.g. preterm birth [1.09, 0.98–1.20], small for gestational age [SGA] [1.23, 1.05–1.45]). Adjustment for body mass index attenuated associations with excessive (1.20, 1.14–1.30) and inadequate GWG (0.87, 0.83–0.92) and large for gestational age (1.07, 1.00–1.13).ConclusionNon‐skiers compared with skiers, and slower versus faster performance, consistently displayed higher odds of GDM, excessive GWG, psychiatric morbidity, CS and large‐for‐gestational‐age babies; and lower odds of inadequate GWG, after adjustment for socio‐demographic and lifestyle factors and comorbidities. There were no associations with fetal/neonatal complications.
Where is the opportunity in opportunity zones?
Authors: Sage Alan , Langen Mike , van de Minne Alex 
Published: January 2023

AbstractIn December 2017, the U.S. Congress passed into law the Opportunity Zone (OZ) program. As an OZ, designated low‐income census tracts provide considerable tax breaks to property investors, intending to attract investments and spur economic growth. As the success of the program is dependent on investors' responses, we analyze market reactions in a difference‐in‐differences framework. We identify two potential effects on property markets: tax breaks for investors and expected land value appreciation. Our results show that tax breaks are priced efficiently. Qualified properties increase by 7–20% in price, while vacant land increase up to 37%. In contrast, we find limited signs of expected land value appreciation.
Recent advances in shelf life prediction models for monitoring food quality

Published: January 2023

AbstractEach year, 1.3 billion tons of food is lost due to spoilage or loss in the supply chain, accounting for approximately one third of global food production. This requires a manufacturer to provide accurate information on the shelf life of the food in each stage. Various models for monitoring food quality have been developed and applied to predict food shelf life. This review classified shelf life models and detailed the application background and characteristics of commonly used models to better understand the different uses and aspects of the commonly used models. In particular, the structural framework, application mechanisms, and numerical relationships of commonly used models were elaborated. In addition, the study focused on the application of commonly used models in the food field. Besides predicting the freshness index and remaining shelf life of food, the study addressed aspects such as food classification (maturity and damage) and content prediction. Finally, further promotion of shelf life models in the food field, use of multivariate analysis methods, and development of new models were foreseen. More reliable transportation, processing, and packaging methods could be screened out based on real‐time food quality monitoring.
How do dietetics students learn about sustainability? A scoping review
Authors: McCormack Joanna , Rutherford Shannon , Ross Lynda J. , Noble Christy , Bialocerkowski Andrea 
Published: January 2023

AbstractAimGlobally, sustainability and planetary health are emerging as areas of critical importance. In 2015, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was adopted by the United Nations member states. Since then, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and the Commonwealth Secretariat have published guidelines for educators to embed sustainability content into curricula. This scoping review aims to identify how student dietitians learn about sustainability, how learning opportunities are evaluated, their outcomes, and whether these guidelines have translated into teaching activities contained in dietetic degrees.MethodsA scoping review was used to address the aims. Eight electronic databases and Google Scholar were searched from inception to March 2022 for articles describing dietetics students' participation in learning activities focused on sustainability. Data that addressed the research aims were charted independently by two researchers, then narratively synthesised.ResultsTwelve articles met the inclusion criteria. A range of teaching approaches and evaluation methods were used, from passive learning in lectures to experiential learning activities. A change in knowledge or behaviour was found for experiential learning activities (n = 5). For articles published after 2015 (n = 9), two mentioned the Sustainable Development Goals and no articles referenced the published guidelines.ConclusionsA paucity of evidence exists describing how dietetics students learn about sustainability and their learning outcomes. Of the 12 articles published, varied teaching approaches and evaluation methods have resulted in inconsistencies in the reporting of outcomes. The minimal reference to the Sustainable Development Goals and published guidelines suggests a slow translation of knowledge to practice.

Published: January 2023

AbstractAimTo describe what is known in the literature about parental perspectives in making prenatal decisions regarding treatment after birth at the limit of viability, as a better understanding of parental values can help professionals support parents as they decide.MethodsPubMed, Cochrane, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Web of Science were searched to identify relevant literature from 1 January 2010 to 22 April 2022 on parental decision making. Data were extracted from selected studies and organised into themes. The final themes were formed through collaboration with the parents of a premature infant born at 24 weeks.ResultsOf the 15,159 papers examined, 17 were included. Parental perspectives were described in terms of long‐term outcomes for the infant, survival, protection against the burden of neonatal treatment, long‐term impact on the family, religion and spiritual beliefs, to do everything possible, hope, sense of responsibility, wanting the best, doing what is right, giving a chance and the influence of experience.ConclusionThe extracted parental perspectives show the complexity of these decisions. Some perspectives were clear, but others were multi‐interpretable. Increasing the understanding of common parental perspectives can help improve shared prenatal decisions and lead to further improvement and personalisation of the process.

SummaryBackground/AimsMetabolic syndrome (MetS) affects over one third of the US adult population. Despite its close association with non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the traditional definition of MetS does not account for the presence of NAFLD. The present study thus aims to evaluate the inclusion of NAFLD in the diagnostic criteria of metabolic syndrome on its accuracy of capturing individuals with metabolic dysregulation and its prediction of adverse events.MethodsData collected from NHANES between 1999 and 2018 was analysed. Clinical characteristics and outcomes between individuals with metabolic syndrome from both the American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (MetS) and the study's proposed diagnostic criteria (MetS2) were evaluated. Outcomes in both groups were evaluated with multivariate analyses, and further subgroup analysis on individuals matched with Coarsened Exact Matching was performed.ResultsOf 46,184 individuals included, 32.54% and 40.54% fulfilled MetS and MetS2 criteria respectively. Considering NAFLD in the definition of metabolic syndrome, a further 8.00% (n = 3694) were included. MetS was significantly associated with all‐cause (HR: 1.184, 95% CI: 1.110–1.263, p < 0.001) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality (SHR: 1.288, 95% CI: 1.233–1.347, p < 0.001), and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). MetS2 was similarly associated with all‐cause (HR: 1.175, 95% CI: 1.088–1.269, p < 0.001), CVD mortality (SHR: 1.283, 95% CI: 1.245–1.323, p < 0.001) and MACE.ConclusionInclusion of NAFLD allows for identification a greater proportion of the population with metabolic risk. This allows for early intervention and potential to lift some burden off the global healthcare system.
