The mediating effect of mindfulness and self-compassion on leaders' communication competence and job satisfaction
Authors: Ramos Salazar Leslie 
Published: December 2021

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the interrelationships between leaders' communication competence, mindfulness, self-compassion and job satisfaction. Barge and Hirokawa's (1989) communication-centered theoretical approach of leadership and Gilbert's (2005) social mentality offered frameworks to examine mindfulness and self-compassion as co-mediators of the relationship between business leaders' communication competence and job satisfaction.Design/methodology/approachA cross-sectional online survey was conducted with 219 business leaders in the USA via snowball sampling.FindingsThe results showed that communication competence served as an antecedent of mindfulness and self-compassion. Additionally, self-compassion served as a significant mediator between the positive relationship between communication competence and job satisfaction.Practical implicationsManagers and business leaders may gain insights about the benefit of developing self-compassion and communication competence skills to enhance their job satisfaction via courses, workshops and certifications.Originality/valueThis study is the first to examine the effect of two well-being constructs (self-compassion and mindfulness) on the relationship between leaders' communication competence and job satisfaction.
Understanding the development of a common social identity between expatriates and host country nationals
Authors: Mumtaz Sana , Nadeem Sadia 
Published: December 2021

Purpose This article examines the impact of expatriates' interaction adjustment and conducive work environment (i.e. trust, shared vision and intercultural communication) on the development of a common social identity between expatriates and host country nationals (HCNs) using the social identity theory (SIT). It also investigates whether increased trust, shared vision and intercultural communication mediate the relationship between expatriates' interaction adjustment and development of a common social identity.Design/methodology/approach Dyadic data were collected from 93 Chinese expatriates and 239 Pakistani HCNs using a three-wave time-lag design. A multilevel model was estimated using Bayesian estimation technique in the Mplus software.Findings Empirical evidence suggests an inverse relationship between expatriates' interaction adjustment and the development of a common social identity between expatriates and HCNs. Further, trust and intercultural communication led to a positive impact on the group memberships between expatriates and HCNs. However, no support was found regarding the mediating role of trust, shared vision and intercultural communication in this empirical research.Originality/value The existing literature focuses mainly on change experiences of expatriates during international assignments. However, the current study goes beyond this and investigates the individualized change experiences of HCNs. Further, empirical evidence in this research found a negative relationship between expatriates' interaction adjustment and the development of a common social identity between expatriates and HCNs, which needs to be examined further.

Published: December 2021

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to prepare flood hazard map and show the extent of flood hazard under climate change scenarios in Woybo River catchment. The hydraulic model, Hydrologic Engineering Center - River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) was used to simulate the floods under future climate scenarios. The impact of climate changes on severity of flooding was evaluated for the mid-term (2041–2070) and long-term (2071–2100) with relative to a baseline period (1971–2000).

Design/methodology/approach
Future climate scenarios were constructed from the bias corrected outputs of five regional climate models and the inflow hydrographs for 10, 25, 50 and 100 years design floods were derived from the flow which generated from HEC-hydrological modeling system; that was an input for the HEC-RAS model to generate the flood hazard maps in the catchment.

Findings
The results of this research show that 25.68% of the study area can be classified as very high hazard class while 28.56% of the area is under high hazard. It was also found that 20.20% is under moderate hazard and about 25.56% is under low hazard class in future under high emission scenario. The projected area to be flooded in far future relative to the baseline period is 66.3 ha of land which accounts for 62.82% from the total area. This study suggested that agricultural/crop land located at the right side of the Woybo River near the flood plain would be affected more with the 25, 50 and 100 years design floods.

Originality/value
Multiple climate models were assessed properly and the ensemble mean was used to prepare flood hazard map using HEC-RAS modeling.
Suppression of pheromone biosynthesis and mating behavior by RNA interference of pheromone gland‐specific fatty acyl reductase in Maruca vitrata
Authors: Cha Wook Hyun , Lee Dae‐Weon 
Published: December 2021

AbstractIn moths, various enzymes, such as fatty acid synthases, fatty acyl desaturases, and fatty acyl reductases (FARs), are involved in pheromone biosynthesis. In particular, pheromone gland‐specific FAR (pgFAR) plays an important role in converting the functional group from carboxylic to alcohol during pheromone biosynthesis. A novel pgFAR of Maruca vitrata, Mvi‐pgFAR, was identified through transcriptome sequencing of its pheromone gland. To investigate the involvement of Mvi‐pgFAR in pheromone biosynthesis, Mvi‐pgFAR was cloned from the pheromone gland and suppressed by RNA interference (RNAi). Mvi‐pgFAR harbored several conserved motifs related to NAD(P)H‐binding, N‐glycosylation, and adenosine / guanosine triphosphate binding. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Mvi‐pgFAR with other lepidopteran pgFARs formed an independent clade. Mvi‐pgFAR was specifically expressed only in the pheromone gland. Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction showed that the diurnal expression levels of Mvi‐pgFAR in the pheromone gland were the highest at 2 h before the scotophase. After primarily confirming Mvi‐pgFAR suppression by RNAi, (E,E)‐10,12‐hexadecadienal (E10E12‐16:Ald), a major sex pheromone component, was quantified by gas chromatography. When Mvi‐pgFAR was successfully suppressed, E10E12‐16:Ald production was reduced by up to half of that of the control, and the mating rate was subsequently decreased. Our results demonstrate that Mvi‐pgFAR downregulation can suppress mating behavior by changing the relative sex pheromone component ratio, suggesting that Mvi‐pgFAR can be used as a novel control target.

Published: December 2021

AbstractThis study responds to ongoing challenges with recruiting quality graduate talent in the accounting/finance industry, critical given transforming labour market requirements. Drawing on Person‐Organisation Fit (POF) theory, we explore what attracts 475 Accounting/Finance students to graduate roles, their preferences for different organisation types, and influences on career decision‐making. Supporting earlier work, we evidence dominating preferences for ‘Big Four’ firms yet discern several appealing features of other organisational types and important intrinsic and extrinsic factors in decision‐making. Findings inform stakeholder strategies to support students for sustainable careers in different accounting/finance contexts and improve the recruitment outcomes of all organisation types in the industry.
A transit state
Authors: EL‐SHAARAWI NADIA 
Published: December 2021

AbstractFor Iraqi refugees in Cairo, third‐country resettlement offers a possible alternative to conditions of exile that they describe as “living in transit.” Yet resettlement—in which refugees are “selected and transferred” by a third country that offers them residence and, usually, citizenship—is available to less than 1 percent of refugees. A scholarly focus on already‐resettled refugees obscures the resettlement process's larger social and political effects in places where seeking resettlement may take years, shaping life in exile and simultaneously rendering mobility, and citizenship, both possible and unlikely. Ethnographically, this article follows refugees from the US‐led war in Iraq as they navigate the resettlement process, a process that places contradictory demands on them and evokes its own ambivalences. Centering Iraqis’ experiences of seeking resettlement troubles its designation as a “durable solution” and reveals ambivalence not only about bureaucratic processes but also about the very possibility of humanitarian solutions to displacement.

SummaryThis study aimed to evaluate the concordance between minimal residual disease (MRD) results obtained by multicolour flow cytometry (MFC) and polymerase chain reaction for fusion gene transcripts (FGTs) in infants with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) associated with rearrangement of the KMT2A gene (KMT2A‐r). A total of 942 bone marrow (BM) samples from 123 infants were studied for MFC‐MRD and FGT‐MRD. In total, 383 samples (40.7%) were concordantly MRD‐negative. MRD was detected by the two methods in 441 cases (46.8%); 99 samples (10.5%) were only FGT‐MRD‐positive and 19 (2.0%) were only MFC‐MRD‐positive. A final concordance rate of 87.4% was established. Most discordance occurred if residual leukaemia was present at levels close to the sensitivity limits. Neither the type of KMT2A fusion nor a new type of treatment hampering MFC methodology had an influence on the concordance rate. The prognostic value of MFC‐MRD and FGT‐MRD differed. MFC‐MRD was able to identify a rapid response at early time‐points, whereas FGT‐MRD was a reliable relapse predictor at later treatment stages. Additionally, the most precise risk definition was obtained when combining the two methods. Because of the high comparability in results, these two rather simple and inexpensive approaches could be good options of high clinical value.
Documenting Diaspora, Diasporising Memory: Memory and Mediation among Chilean and UruguayanHijxs del exilio
Authors: Levey Cara 
Published: December 2021

Addressing the absence of second‐generation exiles from Southern Cone post‐dictatorship memory scholarship, this paper compares two documentaries:Hora Chilena, about the British‐Chilean community andTus padres volverán, depicting Uruguayan exiles across Europe – both made by and/or about theno retornadxs(those who did not return to their countries of origin after dictatorship). The paper deploys documentary to offer a nuanced depiction of thehijxs del exilio(children of exile), finding them to be distinct to both the protagonist generation and their second‐generation peers in the Southern Cone. By incorporating neglected voices and reframing post‐dictatorship memory in Europe, the paper challenges memory narratives about second‐generation exile.
Mapping the uneven geographies of digital phenomena: The case of blockchain
Authors: Zook Matthew , McCanless Michael 
Published: December 2021

Key messages

Grounding practices within the materiality of geography is an important technique for studying the complexity of digital phenomena.
The DIGO (Discourses, Infrastructures, Groupings, and Outcomes) framework uses these categories to guide data selection for locating digital phenomenon in material geographies.
This article applies the DIGO framework to blockchain (using data about tweets, miners, firms, and ICOs) to show how this digital practice connects to and across material geographies.

Published: December 2021

AbstractObjectivesTo compare 2 implant scan bodies with different geometry on the accuracy of the virtual alignment process in the digital workflow.Materials and MethodsA master model of the edentulous maxilla with 6 implants and multiunit abutments (MUA) inserted was fabricated. Six dome‐shaped and cuboidal scan bodies were mounted on the MUAs, respectively, and consecutively scanned by a laboratory scanner 10 times. The original scans were imported to a dental‐specific CAD software and virtually aligned with the default CAD model in the implant library. Thus, 10 aligned models were created. Both the original scans and the aligned models were evaluated by an inspection software for deviation of the scan body surfaces, the centroids of scan body and MUA, the scan body center‐axis, and the inter‐MUA distances/angles. The two‐sample T‐test/Mann–Whitney U test were used to analyze the data with the level of significance set at 0.05.ResultsThe cuboidal group showed significant greater deviations of the model surface (13.9 µm vs. 10.7 µm) and the MUA centroids (31.7 µm vs. 22.8 µm) but smaller deviation of the inter‐MUA angle (0.047° vs. 0.070°) than those of the dome‐shaped group (p < .05). No significant differences in the deviation of scan body centroids, center‐axis, and the inter‐MUA distances between the 2 groups were found.ConclusionsVirtual alignment of implant scan body affected the accuracy of the digital workflow for complete‐arch implant‐supported prostheses (up to ~30 µm/0.09°). Different geometries of the implant scan body could also influence the transfer accuracy in the CAD process.

AbstractObjectivesThe action of stress hormones, mainly glucocorticoids, starts and coordinates the systemic response to stressful events. The HPA axis activity is predicated on information processing and modulation by upstream centres, such as the hippocampus where adult‐born neurons (hABN) have been reported to be an important component in the processing and integration of new information. Still, it remains unclear whether and how hABN regulates HPA axis activity and CORT production, particularly when considering sex differences.Materials and MethodsUsing both sexes of a transgenic rat model of cytogenesis ablation (GFAP‐Tk rat model), we examined the endocrinological and behavioural effects of disrupting the generation of new astrocytes and neurons within the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG).ResultsOur results show that GFAP‐Tk male rats present a heightened acute stress response. In contrast, GFAP‐Tk female rats have increased corticosterone secretion at nadir, a heightened, yet delayed, response to an acute stress stimulus, accompanied by neuronal hypertrophy in the basal lateral amygdala and increased expression of the glucocorticoid receptors in the ventral DG.ConclusionsOur results reveal that hABN regulation of the HPA axis response is sex‐differentiated.
Climate change impacts plant carbon balance, increasing mean future carbon use efficiency but decreasing total forest extent at dry range edges
Authors: Mathias Justin M. , Trugman Anna T. 
Published: December 2021

AbstractCarbon use efficiency (CUE) represents how efficient a plant is at translating carbon gains through gross primary productivity (GPP) into net primary productivity (NPP) after respiratory costs (Ra). CUE varies across space with climate and species composition, but how CUE will respond to climate change is largely unknown due to uncertainty in Ra at novel high temperatures. We use a plant physiological model validated against global CUE observations and LIDAR vegetation canopy height data and find that model‐predicted decreases in CUE are diagnostic of transitions from forests to shrubland at dry range edges. Under future climate scenarios, we show mean growing season CUE increases in core forested areas, but forest extent decreases at dry range edges, with substantial uncertainty in absolute CUE due to uncertainty in Ra. Our results highlight that future forest resilience is nuanced and controlled by multiple competing mechanisms.
Decreasing relatedness among mycorrhizal fungi in a shared plant network increases fungal network size but not plant benefit

AbstractTheory suggests that relatives will cooperate more, and compete less, because of an increased benefit for shared genes. In symbiotic partnerships, hosts may benefit from interacting with highly related symbionts because there is less conflict among the symbionts. This has been difficult to test empirically. We used the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis to study the effects of fungal relatedness on host and fungal benefits, creating fungal networks varying in relatedness between two hosts, both in soil and in‐vitro. To determine how fungal relatedness affected overall transfer of nutrients, we fluorescently tagged phosphorus and quantified resource distribution between two root systems. We found that colonization by less‐related fungi was associated with increased fungal growth, lower transport of nutrients across the network, and lower plant benefit ‐ likely an outcome of increased fungal competition. More generally, we demonstrate how symbiont relatedness can mediate benefits of symbioses.

Published: December 2021

AbstractElton's biotic resistance hypothesis, which posits that diverse communities should be more resistant to biological invasions, has received considerable experimental support. However, it remains unclear whether such a negative diversity–invasibility relationship would persist under anthropogenic environmental change. By using the common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) as a model invader, our 4‐year grassland experiment demonstrated consistently negative relationships between resident species diversity and community invasibility, irrespective of nitrogen addition, a result further supported by a meta‐analysis. Importantly, our experiment showed that plant diversity consistently resisted invasion simultaneously through increased resident biomass, increased trait dissimilarity among residents, and increased community‐weighted means of resource‐conservative traits that strongly resist invasion, pointing to the importance of both trait complementarity and sampling effects for invasion resistance even under resource enrichment. Our study provides unique evidence that considering species’ functional traits can help further our understanding of biotic resistance to biological invasions in a changing environment.

Published: December 2021

AbstractObjectivesMultiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by parkinsonism, cerebellar ataxia and autonomic failure. This study was aimed at investigating possible associations between mortality, 24‐h blood pressure (BP) level and variability, and drug treatments for orthostatic hypotension (OH) in MSA patients.MethodsA total of 129 patients followed at the French Reference Center for MSA who underwent routine 24‐h ambulatory BP monitoring were included. Unified MSA Rating Scale (UMSARS) scores, drug treatments and the occurrence and cause of death were recorded.ResultsSeventy patients died during follow‐up (2.9 ± 1.8 years), mainly from terminal illness, pulmonary or sudden death. Multivariate Cox regression analysis, after adjustment for gender, disease duration and severity (UMSARS I+II score), showed that increased daytime systolic BP variability, OH severity and OH drug treatment were independently correlated with mortality. OH treatment was associated with the risk of cardiac causes and/or sudden death (p = 0.01). In a fully adjusted model, male gender [(female vs. male) hazard ratio (HR) 0.56, 95% CI 0.34–0.94, p = 0.03], UMSARS I+II score (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02–1.06, p < 0.01), systolic BP daytime variability (HR 3.66, 95% CI 1.46–9.17, p < 0.01) and OH treatment (HR: 2.13, 95% CI 1.15–3.94, p = 0.02) predicted mortality.ConclusionsIncreased daytime BP variability and OH treatment were predictive of mortality in patients with MSA, independently from disease severity. Further studies are required to assess if these associations are explained by more severe autonomic dysfunction or if OH treatment exposes per se to a specific risk in this population.
