Impact of corporate reputation on market risk: Indian evidence
Authors: Kaur Amanpreet , Joshi Mahesh , Singh GaganDeep 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
The study aims to examine the relation between corporate reputation and a firm’s systematic risk for top performing Indian companies.

Design/methodology/approach
The paper uses Panel regression analysis of the data from the top 500 listed Indian companies constituting the BSE500 index over a 15-year period from 1 April 2002–31 March 2017. Firm age and shareholders’ return have been used as proxy of firm reputation. This paper use signalling theory to explain the impact of corporate reputation on market risk where proxy for the corporate reputation is seen as an information available to the market.

Findings
The findings show a significant positive impact of corporate reputation on systematic risk, indicating that a firm’s systematic risk increases with its reputation. Specifically, the findings suggest that reputed firms experience increased levels of market risk and scrutiny from stakeholders.

Practical implications
The results will help corporate managers from developing economies where corporate reputation plays an important role in determining the investment behaviour.

Originality/value
This study deploys two broad approaches to measure reputation and discern its impact on risk, such as reputation among financial stakeholders and reputation among public stakeholders on market risk, specifically on fast emerging Indian market.
Analysis of the perceived firm ethicality and brand loyalty through the lens of corporate social responsibility, green brand innovativeness and green marketing: evidence from an emerging economy
Authors: Budi Riharjo Ikhsan , Efendi David , Kurnia Kurnia , Respatia Wimba 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the perceived firm ethicality and loyalty behaviour of consumers through the lens of corporate social responsibility (CSR), green brand innovativeness (GBI) and green marketing (GM).

Design/methodology/approach
The authors used questionnaires as a primary method of data collection. The authors selected four large malls in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia and three large malls in Surabaya, the second-largest city in the country. These locations were chosen due to their high levels of consumer activity and the presence of numerous products from major companies.

Findings
The findings provide strong support for all proposed hypotheses, confirming that perceived firm ethicality plays a crucial role in significantly enhancing brand loyalty. This positive relationship however is mediated through distinct pathways, namely CSR, GBI and GM. Each of these factors contributes meaningfully to shaping consumer perceptions of a firm’s ethicality, which in turn drives greater loyalty to the brand. Collectively, these strategies synergise to amplify a firm’s perceived ethicality, further solidifying brand loyalty. Notably, CSR, perceived firm ethicality, GBI and GM together account for approximately 65.2% of the variance in customer brand loyalty.

Originality/value
The study offers important theoretical insights into attachment theory by extending it to consumer-brand relationships, demonstrating that perceived firm ethicality fosters emotional attachment, which enhances brand loyalty. Just as secure attachment in human relationships builds trust and loyalty, consumers develop emotional bonds with brands they perceive as ethical, supported by CSR practices, GBI and GM from the firms. These strategies reinforce consumer trust and loyalty, paralleling attachment theory’s secure base concept.

Published: January 2025

Purpose
Particularly in the rapidly expanding beauty and personal care sector, affiliate electronic word of mouth (eWOM) from affiliates has grown to be a dependable and trustworthy source of information. Guided by Signaling Theory, this paper aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis to understand the intricate dynamics of affiliate eWOM within the context of Iranian beauty and personal care products.

Design/methodology/approach
The study polled 330 consumers who have purchased beauty and personal care products in Iran. Data were gathered using a convenience sample, and the partial least square structural equation modeling model was used to examine and assess the hypotheses.

Findings
The results demonstrated a significant impact of information quality, rating, helpfulness and number of reviews, along with user-generated videos and photos, on the customer’s actual purchase and intention to purchase the beauty and personal care products. However, the ranking and recency of reviews do not significantly contribute to the stated relationship.

Originality/value
This research is first of its kind to analyze affiliate eWOM cues in the case of cosmetics e-commerce.
Investigating the impact of multiple media use on performance in dispersed teams: unraveling the millefeuille effect
Authors: Boukef Nabila , Haas Aurore , Kalika Michel 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the use of social media platforms compared to IT-enabled communication in the context of dispersed teams.Design/methodology/approachWe draw on the millefeuille theory to develop a model that examines the impact of multiple media use (namely the millefeuille effect) on team performance. Data were collected from 70 dispersed teams.FindingsWe showed dispersed teams are more likely to improve their performance when relying on diverse media, including social media platforms and other IT-enabled communication. We provide empirical evidence that the millefeuille effect does not necessarily impede performance.Originality/valueAn increasing number of companies are implementing social media platforms as part of their media portfolio in addition to the already existing IT-enabled communication, such as email. However, we lack understanding of how the use of different media impacts team performance. Drawing on the millefeuille theory, this study investigates the use of social media platforms in dispersed teams by examining how their use with other IT-enabled communication can lead to team performance. This research introduces and differentiates two measures of the millefeuille effect to explain the different impacts of the millefeuille effect: millefeuille size (the number of non-overlapping media used) and millefeuille diversity (the variety of media used).
Examining the impacts of socioeconomic indicators on sustainable customary land secretariats in Ghana
Authors: Kwakye Benjamin , Gyamfi-Yeboah Frank , Afrane Ebenezer , Abbas Jannat 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThe primary objective of establishing customary land secretariats (CLSs) is to enhance land governance at the local level. However, many have questioned the effectiveness of CLSs after their establishment and the probable factors accounting for their inefficiencies. In this paper, we examine the impacts of socioeconomic indicators on sustainable CLSs in Ghana.Design/methodology/approachWe employed a mixture of cointegration techniques namely the dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS), the fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS) and the canonical cointegrating regression (CCR), contemporaneous with graphical analysis using secondary data from the Duayaw Nkwanta CLS.FindingsFrom the Johansen Cointegration test, the study found land transaction recordings to be cointegrated with the explanatory variables. Local demand for land, land access, average land values and the rate of unemployment were discovered as the principal impacting factors on the CLS. Also, evidence from the graphical analysis depicts that there is a significant improvement in the acquisition of land by women: and land transaction recordings have kept rising after the COVID-19 pandemic.Practical implicationsWe conclude that to promote local land governance for the rural-urban poor and the underrepresented, sustaining the CLSs post-establishment in the local communities is of utmost importance.Originality/valueThis paper serves as one of the maiden editions to apply econometrics in customary land administration in Ghana for long-term policy directions. Besides, it serves as a reflection on the existing performance of the CLSs based on the available dataset.

Published: January 2025

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of percussion and rotation pressure on the performance of drilling steels in different types of rock, specifically sandstone and granodiorite, in an underground mine in Peru.

Design/methodology/approach
The study employed a controlled experimental design, varying percussion and rotation pressures under specific geological conditions. The performance metrics, including wear and efficiency of drilling steels, were analyzed using robust regression methods to address the non-normal distribution of data. Experiments were conducted under pressures of 130 and 160 bars for granodiorite and 80 and 35 for sandstone.

Findings
The results indicated that drilling steels experienced greater wear and efficiency in granodiorite compared to sandstone. In granodiorite, wear on the drill body reached 3.7 mm and 2.4 mm on the inserts, with an efficiency of 2.31 m/min. In sandstone, wear was 2.45 mm and 1.15 mm, with an efficiency of 1.92 m/min. In addition, drilling costs were lower in sandstone (0.35 US$/m) compared to granodiorite (0.40 US$/m). It was concluded that both percussion and rotation pressure significantly influence the wear and performance of drilling steels, increasing wear but improving efficiency with each 1-bar increment in pressure.

Originality/value
The originality of this study lies in its comprehensive analysis of how percussion and rotation pressure affect the wear and performance of drilling steels in two distinct rock types: sandstone and granodiorite. The application of robust multiple linear regression provides a deeper understanding of the relationship between pressure increments and drilling efficiency, offering valuable insights for optimizing drilling operations in underground mines.
Shopping cart abandonment among young consumers: a moderated mediation study
Authors: Sharma Kiran , Srivastava Shalini 
Published: January 2025

Purpose
This study examines the associations of a buyer’s online buying intentions, followed by shopping cart abandonment. The objective of the study is to investigate the determinants that trigger a buyer for abandoning the shopping cart, despite the consumers’ intent to buy. This study aims to examine the factors that leads a consumer to abandon the shopping cart, despite the intention to purchase.

Design/methodology/approach
A cross-sectional data from 354 millennials was undertaken for the current study. These young consumers were identified to examine the conceptual model, which was conceived using the theories of planned behavior, expectation disconfirmation, along with a few seminal works of consumer behavior and psychology.

Findings
The results show perceived risk to be a mediator to a buyer’s online buying intention and shopping cart abandonment, and process satisfaction moderates the association among the two variables in the presence of perceived risk.

Research limitations/implications
This study was conducted with a sample of Indian millennial consumers; hence, its findings may not be generalizable.

Originality/value
This study concludes with important implications for both academicians and e-tailers, which could prove useful in reducing cases of abandonment of shopping carts, due to which, e-tailers do tend to lose out young consumers resulting thereby in revenue loss.
Varieties of pro‐Europeanism? How mainstream parties compete over redistribution in the European Union
Authors: FREUDLSPERGER CHRISTIAN , WEINRICH MARTIN 
Published: January 2025

AbstractHaving long shied away from proactively politicizing issues of European integration, the past crisis decade has put generally pro‐European mainstream parties under pressure to spell out more clearly which kind of Europe they support. We distinguish two such fundamental ideas of Europe: the redistributive polity, organizing transnational solidarity and the regulatory polity, strengthening national self‐reliance. Both notions are integrationist, but they come with distinct policy implications. What determines mainstream party support for either of these polity ideas? We investigate this question on data provided by the ‘EUandI’ voting advice application, which contains party positions on core issues of integration for all EU member states for the four European Parliament elections between 2009 and 2024. Mainstream party support for redistribution, we find, is generally driven by their ideological placement on the economic and cultural dimension. While progressive and left parties tend towards EU‐level redistribution, conservative and right parties are wedded to the idea of a regulatory European polity. This general dynamic, however, interacts with parties’ domestic considerations, that is, the public salience of an issue and a country's net‐payer status in the EU. We further find that the effect of mainstream parties’ ideological positioning differs across policy domains. While cultural and economic positions drive support for redistribution in fiscal and taxation policy to a nearly equal extent, support for redistribution in migration policy is driven by cultural factors alone, while in matters of security and defence right mainstream parties are more supportive of European solidarity than parties of the mainstream left. Our analysis demonstrates that mainstream parties now compete visibly over EU‐level redistribution, but that their stances on transnational solidarity differ depending on the domestic situation and the policy domain in question.
Content validation of the nursing diagnosis “Adult Disuse Syndrome”: A quantitative study
Authors: Ardila‐Suárez Edinson Fabian , Sánchez‐Martínez Vanessa , Escalada‐Hernández Paula 
Published: January 2025

AbstractPurposeThis study aimed to establish the content validity of the proposed nursing diagnosis (ND) “Adult Disuse Syndrome” and all its components.MethodThis is an exploratory descriptive study of diagnostic content validation under Fehring's proposal. Forty three expert nurses with clinical, teaching, and research experience analyzed the components of the diagnosis. The representativeness and relevance of the components of the diagnosis under study were evaluated through a Likert‐type questionnaire. Data distribution analysis was carried out, and the components were validated if their content validity index (CVI) was over 0.80. The overall CVI was obtained for the clinical indicators.FindingsA total of 12 defining characteristics (DCs) were validated, 3 etiological factors were highly related, 6 risk populations were confirmed, and 11 conditions were considered associated. Most validated DCs refer to the physical dimension, but those focusing on the psychological and social dimensions were also validated. The etiological factors were related to the effects of immobility. The risk populations were validated in different contexts or situations, and associated conditions were mainly oriented toward chronic conditions.ConclusionsThis study validated the content of the elements of the proposed ND “Adult Disuse Syndrome.” These were considered relevant and appropriate by both academic and clinical experts.Implications for nursing practiceThe content validation by experts of the components of the ND “Adult Disuse Syndrome” provides nurses with a tool for the identification of the phenomenon that exceeds the risk and occurs frequently in patients exposed to the effects of immobility. At the same time, it will guide the results pursued in the care plan and the application of the respective nursing and interdisciplinary interventions that favor the reduction of the complications derived from disuse.
Differential Organ Ageing Is Associated With Age‐Related Macular Degeneration
Authors: Papadam Anastasios , Lionikas Arimantas , Grassmann Felix 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTAge‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive disorder and the leading cause of central vision loss. Age is the most important risk factor, followed by genetics and smoking. However, ageing is a complex process, and biological age can deviate from chronological age between individuals and within different organ systems. Initially, we used machine learning to predict the biological age of the immune, cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, musculoskeletal, metabolic and hepatic systems by analysing various physiological and physical markers in the UK Biobank cohort. Then, we investigated the association of each organ's biological age with incident AMD derived from electronic health record data as well as with different AMD genetic risk scores. We observed that most organ systems in participants who developed AMD after recruitment showed accelerated ageing compared with controls, with the immune system being the most affected, especially in younger males. Surprisingly, we found that AMD patients showed slower ageing of their hepatic system compared to controls, particularly in female patients. The overall AMD genetic risk score was associated with faster organ ageing across all tissues except cardiovascular and pulmonary, while genetic risk scores stratified by pathways differently influenced each organ system. In conclusion, we found differential organ ageing associated with AMD. Significantly, genetic risk variants of AMD are associated with differential ageing of various organ systems.

Published: January 2025

AbstractBackgroundPreliminary evaluations of 212 drinking offspring from the San Diego Prospective Study (SDPD) indicated that over 50% developed alcohol use disorder (AUD) by their mid‐20s. The present analysis evaluated if those findings remained robust when the group increased to 454 individuals, a sample size that facilitated a search for potential contributors to the high AUD prevalence.MethodsSemistructured interviews were used to evaluate lifetime AUD diagnoses in 224 daughters and 230 sons from the SDPS (N = 454) by mean age 26. Analyses compared participants with and without AUD regarding demography, alcohol use, personality, and psychiatric diagnoses. Characteristics associated with AUD were entered together in a backward elimination regression analysis, and the results were entered in a structural equation model (SEM) to evaluate potential mediation of risks for alcohol problems.ResultsLifetime AUD was documented for 61% of the sons and 41% of the daughters. Offspring with AUD reported averages of 13 maximum and five usual drinks per occasion and endorsed an average of 4 DSM AUD criteria. Even after considering personality characteristics, family AUD histories, and personal psychiatric histories, significant contributions to the regression analysis were limited to lower levels of response to alcohol, higher positive alcohol expectancies, and drinking to cope. Key elements of the hypothesized SEM were supported, and mediation between the low alcohol response and the number of alcohol problems was documented for expectancies, drinking to cope, and peer heavier drinking.ConclusionThe results support prior high AUD rates in SDPS offspring and demonstrate that the AUD diagnoses were associated with robust alcohol intake and problems. The data also indicated mediation of the impact of the low alcohol response on the development of AUD through several characteristics proposed by prior work in other populations.

AbstractBackgroundDuring the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic, there was a marked increase in alcohol consumption. COVID‐19 superimposed on underlying liver disease notably worsens the outcome of many forms of liver injury. The goal of a current pilot study was to test the dual exposure of alcohol and COVID‐19 infection in an experimental animal model of alcohol‐associated liver disease (ALD).MethodsAfter 4 weeks of ethanol (EtOH) feeding, C57BL/6 male mice received SARS‐CoV‐2 (SARS2‐N501YMA30) intranasally at 3 × 102, 1 × 103, 3 × 103, and 1 × 104 plaque‐forming units (PFU). Mice were then weighed/monitored daily for morbidity/mortality for 10 days while continuing EtOH consumption. Markers of liver inflammation, injury, and intestinal barrier integrity were evaluated.ResultsA similar gradual weight loss was observed in all inoculated mice (slightly less in the 3 × 102 group) up to post‐infection day 4. Greater mortality was observed in mice receiving the highest viral dose at days 3 and 4 post‐infection. The majority of the surviving mice subjected to EtOH and inoculated with 3 × 103 or 1 × 104 PFU rapidly lost 25% of their body weight and were euthanized on post‐infection day 4. Analysis of liver health in animals that survived to the end of the experiment exhibited no significant changes in hepatic steatosis but had a limited increase in plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels at all viral doses versus EtOH alone. However, the 1 × 104 PFU viral dose exacerbated EtOH‐induced hepatic inflammation characterized by elevated levels of several pro‐inflammatory cytokines, including Il‐6 and Tnf‐α. There was limited effect of viral infection on the intestine.ConclusionsSARS‐CoV‐2 infection caused a dose‐dependent negative impact on body weight and survival in mice fed EtOH. This pilot study suggests that early mortality observed after high‐dose SARS‐CoV‐2 challenge could be due, in part, to hepatic dysfunction following chronic EtOH feeding.
