Conflicted about online learning?: Using sentiment analysis to explore learner approach-avoidance motivation
Authors: Stanworth James O. , Yen Wan-Hsuan , Warden Clyde A. 
Published: July 2022

PurposeStudent motivation underpins the challenge of learning, made more complex by the move to online education. While emotions are integral to students' motivation, research has, to date, overlooked the dualistic nature of emotions that can cause stress. Using approach-avoidance conflict theory, the authors explore this issue in the context of novel online students' responses to a fully online class.Design/methodology/approachUsing a combination of critical incident technique and laddering, the authors implemented the big data method of sentiment analysis (SA) which results in approach tables with 1,318 tokens and avoid tables with 1,090 tokens. Using lexicon-based SA, the authors identify tokens relating to approach, avoid and mixed emotions.FindingsThe authors implemented the big data method of SA which results in approach tables with 1,318 tokens and avoid tables with 1,090 tokens. Using lexicon-based SA, the authors identify tokens relating to approach, avoid and mixed emotions. These ambivalent emotions provide an opportunity for teachers to rapidly diagnose and address issues of student engagement in an online learning class.Originality/valueResults demonstrate the practical application of SA to unpack the role of emotions in online learner motivation.
Leadership and culture in combating corruption: a comparative analysis
Authors: Quah Jon S.T. 
Published: July 2022

PurposeThis paper analyses the importance of leadership and culture in combating corruption in Hong Kong SAR, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore and Taiwan.Design/methodology/approachThis paper is based on the comparative analysis of the effectiveness of the anti-corruption measures in the studies of six selected countries/regions in this special issue of Public Administration and Policy. The contributors in this special issue were invited because of their publications on combating corruption in the six countries/regions.FindingsThe critical variable ensuring the effectiveness of combating corruption is the strong political will of the leadership in changing the culture of corruption in the country/region by implementing a zero-tolerance policy toward corruption, as shown in Singapore and Hong Kong. In New Zealand’s case, leadership plays a less important role because of the population’s emphasis on equality and egalitarianism and its reliance on the Ombudsman and Serious Fraud Office to curb corruption. However, the corrupt leadership of Tanaka Kakuei in Japan, Najib Rajak in Malaysia, and Chen Shui-bian in Taiwan, demonstrates clearly their insidious impact of consolidating their kleptocratic rule in these countries/regions.Originality/valueAs the role of leadership and culture in combating corruption has not been given sufficient attention in the literature, this paper attempts to rectify this neglect by demonstrating that the political leaders in Singapore and Hong Kong, and to a lesser extent, New Zealand, have succeeded in minimising corruption while their counterparts in Japan, Taiwan and Malaysia, have failed to do so.
Canine/handler relationships: a descriptive mixed-methods analysis of handlers' well-being and stress
Authors: Abraham Sarah , Abderhalden Frances P. , Matusiak Matthew C. 
Published: July 2022

PurposeThis study aims to examine the relationships between handlers and (canine) K9. Understanding the influence of well-being and stress (general, occupational and home) is a first step in understanding the performance of K9 units in law enforcement.Design/methodology/approachA mixed-methods approach employing semi-structured interviews and quantitative surveys. This approach assessed the relationship between handlers and K9s, while capturing context and the nuanced nature of these partnerships.FindingsHandlers agree that K9 can detect handlers' general stress, which potentially impacts K9 performance. Occupational stress influences handler/K9 abilities, however, handlers did not agree on all individual behaviors contributing to this stress. Finally, handlers stressed the importance of K9 units training together and suggested supervisors do not always appreciate the importance of joint training sessions.Originality/valueAs specialized units, K9s are often overlooked in policing scholarship, but serve a substantial large role in the missions of safety and security. Little is known about the dynamics of handler/K9 relationships.
The quality of working life from a person-centred perspective: linking job crafting, work environment types and work engagement
Authors: Urbanaviciute Ieva , Lazauskaite-Zabielske Jurgita 
Published: July 2022

PurposeThe current study inspects pathways through which job crafting relates to the quality of employees' working lives. To date, this has been mostly done either by linking job crafting to individual job characteristics or by investigating its association with separate aspects of occupational well-being (such as work engagement), whereas empirical evidence about how it may affect one's overall work situation remains scarce.Design/methodology/approachTo address this question, the authors conducted latent profile analyses based on selected job resources and job demands, which allowed the authors to derive distinct work environment patterns prevailing in a heterogeneous sample of 1,064 employees. Four patterns were identified denoting a passive, high-strain, low-strain and optimally balanced work environment types. The authors then tested the hypothesis that job crafting would relate to employees' odds of exposure to these patterns and that the latter would differentiate between high and low work engagement.FindingsApproach job crafting was related to higher odds of being exposed to a favourably balanced work environment, and the reverse was true of avoidance crafting. Work engagement differed as a function of the quality of the work environment. Furthermore, the results suggested a potentially indirect link between approach job crafting and work engagement via exposure to different work environment types, whereas avoidance crafting related to lower work engagement only directly.Originality/valueThe findings contribute to theory testing and practice by providing a holistic representation of the work environment and then interlinking its features with employee proactivity and engagement.
Decolonising research approaches towards non-extractive research
Authors: Igwe Paul Agu , Madichie Nnamdi O. , Rugara David Gamariel 
Published: July 2022

Purpose
This study aims to reflect on the extent to which research approaches need to be deconstructed and re-imagined towards developing inclusive knowledge and non-extractive research approaches from a Global South perspective.

Design/methodology/approach
Conceptually, integrating the methodological logic and strategy of community-based participatory research (CBPR) and a postcolonial paradigm of decolonising research, this study proposes a research process that engages cultural diversity and an inclusive environment. CBPR approach enables involving, informing and consulting Indigenous communities in espousing theoretical approaches and giving voice to marginalised groups.

Findings
This study answers pertinent questions on what “decolonising” means and how to decolonise research by developing a model of culturally inclusive research approaches. This study ultimately posits that colonialism dominates research and limits knowledge transmission among Indigenous research ideologies.

Research limitations/implications
In recent years, the world has witnessed major socio-political protests that challenges systemic racism and the role of education and institutions in perpetuating racial inequality. This study advocates that researchers consider integrating communities in the designing, conducting, gathering of data, analysing, interpreting and reporting research.

Practical implications
This study advocates knowledge creation through research that considers integrating the voices of Indigenous communities in the design, analysis, interpretation and reporting of research protocols.

Originality/value
In the light of anticolonial thought, decolonising research approaches provides a means for a radical change in research ethics protocol. A model of culturally inclusive research approach was developed, using the framework of CBPR, decolonising the research approaches comprising 6 Rs (respect, relevance, reciprocity, responsibility, relationships and relationality).
Research on compensation method for registration error of large-scale measurement field based on multi-temperature sensors
Authors: Huang Lulu , Huang Xiang , Li Shuang-Gao 
Published: July 2022

Purpose
The size of the aircraft tooling structure is huge, and the ambient temperature is difficult to maintain a constant state. Aiming at the influence of current temperature, this paper aims to propose a compensation method for registration error of large-scale measurement fields based on multi-temperature sensors.

Design/methodology/approach
In this method, an enhanced reference points (ERS)–temperature regression model is constructed from ERS and temperature data. The ERS offsets compensation model is established by solving the offset through the regression model, and the ERS offset compensation analysis is carried out.

Findings
The experimental results show that the proposed registration error compensation algorithm has obvious advantages over traditional methods in reducing the influence of ambient temperature and improving the measurement accuracy by reducing the registration error.

Originality/value
This method reduces registration error caused by the influence of ambient temperature and is used for aircraft measurements in different temperature environments.
The 2020 Aged Care Workforce Census and Issues Arising for Residential Care Workforce Planning and Policy
Authors: Howe Anna 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThe Australian Government has committed to addressing the recommendations on workforce made by the 2021 Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety. Implementation requires a sound information base but examination of the 2020 Aged Care Workforce Census finds it inadequate for these purposes. Only half the reported 32 per cent workforce increase is substantiated on the basis of funding increases and the balance attributed to extraneous factors that inflated results. These limitations are discussed with reference to four major areas of workforce planning and policy and conclusions are drawn about margins for change associated with each of these areas.

The response‐to‐intervention (RtI) model is widely used to support students with special educational needs and their teachers. However, little is known about how educational and health care professionals support the implementation of this model in specific contexts. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of educational and health care professionals (n = 101) regarding their involvement in RtI practices in Quebec, Canada. A cross‐sectional online survey was sent to school‐board directors responsible for overviewing support services (n = 35), and to professionals implementing those services (n = 66). Descriptive and content analyses were performed and perspectives of the two groups were compared. Regarding perspectives of RtI implementation, discrepancies were revealed between directors' perceptions of the involvement of their professionals versus the professionals' reported implementation of the RtI model in practice. Directors reported greater knowledge about RtI (84%) than professionals (72%). Professionals consistently reported lower involvement in supporting RtI implementation than did directors. Coaching was the most frequent activity reported and was mentioned by both directors and professionals as a service provided at all RtI tiers. Results reveal inconsistencies about tiered practices among administrators and school health care professionals, with individuals defining tiers differently and varying in practices implemented at specific tiers. Participants also provided useful suggestions to further implement RtI.
A TERRITORIAL PERSPECTIVE ON URBAN AND REGIONAL ENERGY TRANSITIONS: Shifting Power Densities in the Berlin‐Brandenburg Region
Authors: Walker Benedikt 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThe interdependent development of subnational territories and energy transitions deserves greater attention. Territories demarcate spheres of influence, order relations of energy supply and demand, and offer opportunities and restrictions for local energy autonomy. Nevertheless, territorial perspectives on urban and regional energy transitions are conceptually underdeveloped. Drawing from political geography, this article presents a conceptual framework for understanding how subnational territories shape energy transitions and vice versa. This territorial perspective offers critical insights for research into the (urban) materiality of renewables, energy landscapes and uneven development. First, many cities will rely on renewable energy supply from rural territories to become carbon neutral, due to the low power densities of renewables. Second, governance actors mobilize territorial practices to create and disrupt relations between different energy landscapes. Finally, territorial boundaries are resources in governance processes and structuring elements of uneven development. I use the framework to analyze a case study of a wind energy conflict in three municipalities next to Berlin, which illustrates how Berlin's government asserts its territorial priorities and creates renewable energy hinterlands in a process I conceptualize as hinterlandization.

Published: July 2022

AbstractObjectiveTo assess a new approach (weighting by “income probabilities [IP]”) that uses US Census data from the patients' communities to approximate individual‐level income, an important but often missing variable in health services research.Data SourcesCommunity (census tract level) income data came from the 2017 5‐year American Community Survey (ACS). The patient data included those diagnosed with cancer in 2017 in Ohio (n = 65,759). The reference population was the 2017 5‐year ACS Public Use Microdata Sample (n = 564,357 generalizing to 11,288,350 Ohioans).Study Design/MethodsWe applied the traditional approach of income approximation using median census tract income along with two IP based approaches to estimate the proportions in the patient data with incomes of 0%–149%, 150%–299%, 300%–499%, and 500%+ of the federal poverty level (FPL) (“class‐relevant income grouping”) or 0%–138%, 139%–249%, 250%–399%, and 400%+ FPL (“policy‐relevant income grouping”). These estimated income distributions were then compared with the known income distributions of the reference population.Data Collection/Extraction MethodsThe patient data came from Ohio's cancer registry. The other data were publicly available.Principal FindingsBoth IP based approaches consistently outperformed the traditional approach overall and in subgroup analyses, as measured by the weighted average absolute percentage point differences between the proportions of each of the income categories of the reference population and the estimated proportions generated by the income approximation approaches (“average percent difference,” or APD). The smallest APD for an IP based method, 0.5%, was seen in non‐Hispanic White females in the class‐relevant income grouping (compared with 16.5% for the conventional method), while the largest APD, 7.1%, was seen in non‐Hispanic Black females in the policy‐relevant income grouping (compared with 18.0% for the conventional method).ConclusionsWeighting by IP substantially outperformed the conventional approach of estimating the distribution of incomes in patient data.
Entrepreneurial Ecosystems as Amplifiers of the Lean Startup Philosophy: Management Control Practices in Earliest‐Stage Startups*
Authors: Becker Sebastian D. , Endenich Christoph 
Published: July 2022

ABSTRACTEntrepreneurial ecosystems play a key role in the development of startups not only by providing support—such as flexible office space and access to skilled employees, mentors, and investors—but moreover by promoting concrete ideals about “good” entrepreneurship. However, we know less about the role that ecosystems play in managerial practices of startups. In our empirical analysis of management control systems (MCSs) in earliest‐stage startups, we witness a strong influence of entrepreneurial ideals—above all, the Lean Startup philosophy—on the MCSs analyzed. Building on cross‐sectional field study data resulting from a comprehensive field‐immersion strategy and 50 interviews with key actors in an entrepreneurial ecosystem as well as with founder‐managers of startups, we consider the entrepreneurial ecosystem as a collective meso‐level community that mediates between macro‐level institutional pressures and micro‐level practices of startups. We show how this community, through a variety of what we term amplifying mechanisms, actively deinstitutionalizes a legacy entrepreneurial philosophy epitomized by the business plan concept. At the same time, the community propagates the Lean Startup philosophy so that this alternative has become the dominant institutional philosophy in the studied ecosystem and its startups. Due to the amplifying mechanisms exerted by the meso level, startups use MCSs that play a crucial role in the rapid experimentation and learning process toward finding a scalable business model that is characteristic of the Lean Startup philosophy. We highlight that this philosophy of scientific experimentation has, to a significant degree, transformed intuitive entrepreneurial processes into a set of transactions that can be steered and accelerated by MCSs.
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: A practical approach for emergency physicians
Authors: Edlow Jonathan A. , Kerber Kevin 
Published: July 2022

AbstractBenign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a very common condition in the population and an important cause of acute vertigo or dizziness in patients presenting to an emergency department (ED). Despite this, abundant evidence shows that current ED management of patients with BPPV is suboptimal. Common ED management processes include brain imaging and treatment with vestibular suppressant medications such as meclizine, neither of which is recommended by current guidelines. The most efficient management of BPPV is to perform a bedside test (Dix‐Hallpike test) and then to treat the patients with a bedside positional (the Epley) maneuver. In this practical review we emphasize the efficient management for the most common form of BPPV—posterior canal BPPV. Using this management will reduce resource utilization (laboratory testing, brain imaging, specialist consultation), reduce ED length of stay, and reduce use of ineffective mediations that have side effects but little therapeutic effect. Application of these practices would improve important patient‐centered outcomes such as symptom reduction, radiation exposure, side effects from medications, and less need for urgent follow‐up with another health care provider. The article also discusses the approach to patients in whom the Dix‐Hallpike and/or Epley maneuvers do not seem to work. This includes a discussion the second most common variant of BPPV (horizontal canal BPPV) and criteria for safe discharge of patients. Another important advantage of learning BPPV best practices is that it is enormously satisfying for the clinician, not unlike treating a child with a nursemaid's elbow.
The ASC 606 standard, revenue informativeness, and analysts forecast quality
Authors: Hao Jie , Pham Viet Tuan 
Published: July 2022

AbstractWe examine the adoption effect of ASC 606 on revenue informativeness, analyst forecast dispersion, and forecast errors. We find that the adoption of ASC 606 is associated with increases in revenue informativeness but decreases in analyst forecast accuracy and consensus. Such adoption effects are mainly temporary and focused in firms that are more affected by the new standard. Last, we find that firms using the full retrospective adoption method are associated with higher revenue informativeness and lower analyst forecast error than firms using the modified retrospective method.
The effect of an additional application of sealer prior to backfilling in the Continuous Wave of Condensation technique
Authors: Ahmed Humza , Ratnayake Jithendra , Cathro Peter , Chandler Nick 
Published: July 2022

AbstractAn additional sealer application was investigated prior to backfilling with the Continuous Wave of Condensation (CWC). 105 Palatal roots were sectioned and prepared to a file size 40, 0.06 taper with Vortex Blue® files. Groups A, B and C had a single sealer application before while groups D, E and F, received a second application of dyed sealer prior to backfilling. Roots were sectioned at 2,3,4,6,7 and 8 mm from the root apex. The percentage of sealer and dentinal tubular penetration depth was calculated at each level. At each ascending level, the sealer percentage decreased for each experimental group while the number of outer third penetration depths increased when all groups were combined. An additional sealer application prior to backfilling had minimal effect on the percentage of sealer or outer third penetration depths and can be considered a clinical preference rather than an imperative step with the CWC technique.

AbstractPurposeThis study aimed to analyze treatment outcomes and prognostic markers, including immune and inflammatory factors, of postoperative radiation therapy (RT) administered to patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA).MethodsWe retrospectively included 59 patients with CCA who underwent surgery and postoperative RT with curative intent from 2004 to 2019. Patients received external irradiation (50 Gy in 25 fractions) using three‐dimensional RT. We analyzed prognostic factors of inflammation, such as pre‐RT platelet count, hemoglobin, lymphocyte count ratio (LCR) of the leukocyte count, platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR).ResultsTumor stages were distributed as follows: I (n = 8), II (n = 25), III (n = 15), and IVA (n = 11). The median follow‐up was 24 months. Two‐year overall survival (OS), cause‐specific survival (CSS), progression‐free survival (PFS), and locoregional control (LRC) rates were 59.5%, 62.0%, 40.1%, and 66.7%, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that lower LCR was significantly associated with shorter PFS (p = 0.0446). There was no significant difference between the median baseline values of PLR and NLR; and age ≥75, positive regional lymph node metastases (N+), and chemotherapy after RT were significantly associated with poor OS. Multivariate analysis revealed a significant association of N+ with worse OS, PFS, and CSS and that lower LCR was significantly associated with better PFS (p = 0.0234). Among late toxicity events, two patients (3.38%) were suspected with therapy‐related liver toxicity.ConclusionsLower LCR before RT was a better prognostic factor for postoperative RT of patients with CCA.
