Fine-scale cultural variation reinforces genetic structure in England
Authors: Pichkar Yakov , Creanza Nicole 
Published: September 2022

AbstractGenes and languages both contain signatures of human history. Genetics and culture have each been shown to track population movements and demographic history. Complicating this picture, cultural traits may themselves influence the ways in which people interact with one another. For example, cultural differences can produce barriers to gene flow if they cause groups of people to differentiate themselves from one another. However, the degree of cultural difference necessary and the magnitude of these effects on gene flow remain unknown. In particular, language differences may limit population mixing, and we focus on whether subtle, dialect-level linguistic differences have influenced genetic population structure, likely by affecting mating preferences. Here, we analyze spatially dense linguistic and genetic data to examine whether the intensity of differences between and within dialects in England are associated with high genetic rates of change. We find that genetic variation and dialect markers have similar spatial distributions on a country-wide scale, and become less distinct as the scale of smaller administrative units such as counties. This covariation, combined with the absence of geographic barriers that could coordinate cultural and genetic differentiation, suggests that some dialect-level linguistic boundaries have influenced the genetic population structure in England.
Effectiveness of online capacity building programs in wholistic development of faculties: an empirical analysis
Authors: Kumar Chetan , Rangappa K.B. , Suchitra S. 
Published: September 2022

PurposeFaculties have a vital role to play in ensuring that their graduates are trained with relevant skills. Formally arranged capacity building programs (CBPs) can aid in training and retraining the faculties with relevant contemporary skills so that they in turn can do justice to their students. The purpose of this study is to analyze the efficacy of such public-funded online CBPs in enhancing faculties’ research and teaching capabilities.Design/methodology/approachAscientifically designed questionnaire was sent to faculties who attended 12-day public-funded online capacity building workshop. Binomial logistic regression models were constructed to analyze as to how effective the online workshop was in enhancing teaching and research skills of the faculties involved.FindingsFrom the research study, the authors were able to infer that although faculties were able to understand theoretical concepts of qualitative nature relatively easily, the authors felt that its value addition in enhancing the research output was rather limited. The study also found that the faculties felt teaching concepts outside their “syllabus” to be counterintuitive. A significant finding of the study was that research had an important role in enhancing their teaching efficacy.Originality/valueStudies which are undertaken to test the efficacy of online capacity building workshops are scarce. This domain is going to gain importance in near future as technology is evolving at a rapid rate and online training of faculties helps in optimizing scarce resources.

Findings
The website of PAI of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia recorded a high level in all quality dimensions, whereas the website of PAI of Jordan recorded moderate quality in all dimensions except for accessibility; the website of PAI of Egypt recorded a high level in all quality dimensions except for the educational purpose. Based on the qualitative analysis, participants agreed that the PAI website has the best quality, accessibility, navigation and design compared with the Egyptian and the Jordanian PAIs websites.

Practical implications
Designers of PAI websites should consider end users’ needs and regularly assess the website’s usability. PAIs developers should also establish more interactive portals to provide transparent and effective electronic services to users. The findings are significant in helping policymakers better understand the importance of distance training and learning using websites and platforms.

Social implications
Developing a high-quality website enhances the relationship between the government and its employees, consequently establishing the credibility and trust of citizens in public services.

Originality/value
To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study that measures the quality of PAI websites in the Arab world. The findings provide more cross-culture evidence for the e-government and digital literature in helping policymakers develop more technology interactive platforms.
Research on pedestrian detection based on multi-level fine-grained YOLOX algorithm
Authors: Wang Hong , Xie Yong , Tian Shasha , Zheng Lu , Dong Xiaojie , Zhu Yu 
Published: September 2022

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to address the problems of low accuracy and missed detection of occluded pedestrians and small target pedestrians when using the YOLOX general object detection algorithm for pedestrian detection. This study proposes a multi-level fine-grained YOLOX pedestrian detection algorithm.Design/methodology/approachFirst, to address the problem of the original YOLOX algorithm in obtaining a single perceptual field for the feature map before feature fusion, this study improves the PAFPN structure by adding the ResCoT module to increase the diversity of the perceptual field of the feature map and divides the pedestrian multi-scale features into finer granularity. Second, for the CSPLayer of the PAFPN, a weight gain-based normalization-based attention module (NAM) is proposed to make the model pay more attention to the context information when extracting pedestrian features and highlight the salient features of pedestrians. Finally, the authors experimentally determined the optimal values for the confidence loss function.FindingsThe experimental results show that, compared with the original YOLOX algorithm, the AP of the improved algorithm increased by 2.90%, the Recall increased by 3.57%, and F1 increased by 2% on the pedestrian dataset.Research limitations/implicationsThe multi-level fine-grained YOLOX pedestrian detection algorithm can effectively improve the detection of occluded pedestrians and small target pedestrians.Originality/valueThe authors introduce a multi-level fine-grained ResCoT module and a weight gain-based NAM attention module.
Transient-mixed lubrication model numerically for friction and wear of journal bearings under heavy load during start-up
Authors: Yan Kang , Li Hulin , Ding Ning , Jiang Dan , Meng Xianghui 
Published: September 2022

Purpose
Friction and wear are very important factors in predicting the performance of journal bearings, particularly under heavy load in start-up processes. However, there are few relevant studies on the numerical model. This study aims to establish a transient-mixed lubrication model to predict the performance of journal bearings, focusing on the friction and wear behavior under heavy load during start-up.

Design/methodology/approach
The average Reynold equation, three-dimensional energy equation, shear stress model for friction and Archard model for wear are coupled in the transient model by finite difference method. The linear wear simulation method is bought out to reduce the update times and the calculation time.

Findings
The different start-up accelerations and linear wear times set are compared and discussed, which indicates a reasonable start-up acceleration is necessary for journal bearings under heavy load during start-up, and setting linear wear times is an effective method to reduce the simulation time significantly. Furthermore, the wear profile in the start-up process spreads in both the clearance and circumferential directions, but mainly in the clearance direction, which increases the minimum film thickness and affects the friction performance.

Originality/value
This study is of great significance for the numerical prediction of the transient performance of journal bearings during start-up considering friction and wear.
Bouncing forward or bouncing back? How family firms enact resilience in times of crisis
Authors: Mihotić Lucija , Raynard Mia , Sinčić Ćorić Dubravka 
Published: September 2022

PurposeThe study aims to develop theoretical understanding about how family-run businesses navigate unexpected and highly disruptive events by examining how family-based resilience capacity is variously transformed into an organizational capability.Design/methodology/approachThe study relies on a qualitative comparative case study design to explore how Croatian family-run businesses navigated market and operational disruptions brought on by the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Drawing on semi-structured interviews and organizational data, this study compares how family-run businesses operating in different industries experienced and coped with disruptions. Using inductive qualitative coding methods, patterns across codes were identified and aggregated into dimensions that describe two broad approaches for leveraging family social capital in the enactment of organizational resilience.FindingsThe analysis shows that family-run businesses may employ family social capital in retrospective and prospective ways. A retrospective approach involves targeted and conservative uses of family social capital, wherein the aim is to maintain organizational functioning and return to “business as usual”. In contrast, a prospective approach employs these resources in a more strategic and flexible way to adapt to a “new” future. While both approaches can enable firms to successfully navigate crises, these approaches differ in terms of their temporal orientation and implications for marketing flexibility.Originality/valueThe study contributes to a better understanding of how family social capital can be differentially leveraged in times of crises, and how these differences may stem from having temporal orientations that focus on either preserving the past or adapting to new conditions. The study advances theorizing at the intersection of organizational resilience and family business by deepening understanding of the heterogeneity of ways in which family businesses manage change for long-term business continuity. For owners and managers of family-run business, the study provides insights into how unexpected disruptions can be managed and how businesses might respond to fast-changing market conditions.
Corruption and the curse of over-quantification
Authors: Prabowo Hendi Yogi 
Published: September 2022

Purpose
The primary purpose of this exploratory paper is to propose a novel analytical framework for examining corruption from a behavioral perspective by highlighting multiple issues associated with quantification culture.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper is part of the author’s exploratory study into the complex corruption phenomenon in Indonesia from a variety of viewpoints to obtain a better understanding of its nature and dynamics. By building on previous literature on quantification culture, audit culture and the corruption phenomenon, this paper explores the different issues related to overreliance on numbers and how they may have led to increased corruption, particularly in Indonesia. Using the Fraud Decision Scale framework, this paper also demonstrates how the quantification culture affects the cost-benefit analysis of corruption offenders. To develop the best anticorruption strategy and lay the groundwork for future anticorruption studies, this paper presents a fresh perspective on how to analyze and evaluate the corruption issue.

Findings
The author established that despite the benefits that quantification practices – such as indicators, scores, ratings and rankings – bring to societies and organizations, there is evidence that these practices can have unfavorable effects when used excessively or incorrectly. One of the adverse effects of quantification practices is over-quantification, which manifests as various inappropriate behaviors, including an excessive desire to acquire riches and material belongings. Additionally, the worship of ranks and status derived from quantitative evaluation processes has led many people to prioritize short-term objectives above long-term improvements. Eventually, these will cause organizations to lose productivity and make them susceptible to fraud and corruption. Future studies are needed to determine the most effective approach for mitigating over-quantification issues. In this exploratory paper, the author proposes balancing quantitative practices with qualitative knowledge to gradually alter people’s behavior by broadening their perspectives in perceiving various phenomena in the world, not only by describing and explaining them but also by comprehending their underlying meanings.

Research limitations/implications
This exploratory study is self-funded and relies primarily on documentary analysis to explore the corruption phenomenon in Indonesia. Future studies will benefit from in-depth interviews with former corruption offenders and investigators.

Practical implications
This exploratory paper contributes to the development of a sound corruption prevention approach by presenting a novel analytical framework for examining various behavioral problems linked with quantification culture that may lead to the escalation of corruption.

Originality/value
This study emphasizes the significance of understanding the structure and dynamics of quantification culture and their negative behavioral impacts on people to comprehend the corruption phenomenon better.

Does financial efficiency contribute to improvement in energy efficiency? Evidence from BRICS and next 11 countries
Authors: Wang Qiang , Zhang Chen , Li Rongrong 
Published: September 2022

PurposeThis study is aimed to measure the intertemporal financial efficiency of 16 emerging economy countries (BRICS and N-11) and further to investigate the mechanisms of financial development on energy efficiency covering the period 2008–2020.Design/methodology/approachThe dynamic data envelopment analysis model is used to measure financial efficiency dynamically. The generalized method of moments is used to investigate the effects of financial efficiency on energy efficiency. In the proposed approach, energy efficiency is the dependent variable, whereas financial efficiency, GDP per capita, industrial structure upgrade index, urbanization level and export trade structure are the regressors. Generalized moment estimation is performed.FindingsThere is heterogeneity in the level of financial development at different stages of economic development. The impact of financial efficiency on energy efficiency is related to the type of industries to which financial institutions are allocated. With the financial development of emerging economies, enterprises in technology-intensive industries are becoming the main contributors to higher profits for financial institutions, the products and results of these enterprises reduce energy consumption and increase energy efficiency. In addition, residents with rising levels of wealth holdings prefer low-carbon and environmentally friendly products, which indirectly improves energy efficiency. Per capita GDP and urbanization have no significant impact on the energy efficiency of emerging economies. The optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure of emerging economies has played a role in promoting energy efficiency. The export trade structure has a restraining effect on energy efficiency.Originality/valueThe findings contribute value by supporting a positive link between Financial Development and Energy Efficiency in the emerging economies. Enterprises in technology-intensive industries have gradually become the main force that brings higher profits to financial institutions. The products and achievements of these enterprises will reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency. The findings of this study provide emerging economies with an objective view of their financial development and energy efficiency, while also providing governments and policymakers with ways to improve energy efficiency and achieve sustainable development.
Using personality type to engage and retain remote, hybrid and office-based workers
Authors: Hackston John 
Published: September 2022

Purpose
This study aims to investigate the attitudes to remote, hybrid and nonremote working, and how these are influenced by personality type and other factors. By understanding these relationships, recommendations for navigating the changing work environment can be developed.

Design/methodology/approach
A total of 443 people, comprising a mix of remote, hybrid and nonremote workers, completed an anonymous online survey in which they were asked to provide their Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI) type preferences, demographic information, views about their job and (as appropriate) information about their home working environment and views on remote working and/or their workplace environment and views on nonremote working and/or on issues specific to hybrid working.

Findings
Differences between employees’ preferred amount of remote working and the actuality of their job was a key determinant of whether they were thinking of leaving, suggesting that mandating a return to the workplace could result in the loss of valuable employees. Other factors included managerial support, workplace inclusion and the interaction of personality type. Personality-type considerations were also important in making the office an attractive place to return to, with Extraversion–Introversion a key area.

Originality/value
The MBTI framework is already widely used for leadership development, teambuilding and other applications. Taking personality type into consideration when planning the future of hybrid working in an organization allows human resources teams to build on existing knowledge to achieve a smooth transition.
