Using longitudinal data collected in 2019 and 2021 as part of the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, fixed-effects models of job satisfaction are estimated. Changes in the share of total weekly work hours usually worked from home are not found to have any significant association with changes in job satisfaction for men. By contrast, a strong significant positive (but nonlinear) association is found for women, and this relationship is concentrated on women with children. These findings suggest the main benefit of working from home for workers arises from the improved ability to combine work and family responsibilities, something that matters more to women given they continue to shoulder most of the responsibility for house and care work.</p>","PeriodicalId":13504,"journal":{"name":"ILR Review","volume":"78 2","pages":"330-354"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11785509/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143079688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since digital nomads have been defined through travel and mobility lenses, they share similarities with sojourners and traditional tourists. At the same time, they are distinct because of their personal and professional freedom. Consequently, their journeys are fluid, and conventional models struggle to capture the essence of their socio-cultural adaptation comprehensively. Through exploratory interviews, we reveal that digital nomads prioritize socio-cultural adaptation depending on their private and professional goals and the context in which they find themselves. We draw on self-discrepancy theory to scrutinize this observation further in the main study. We examine how self-discrepancy in socio-cultural adaption influences affect-laden attitudes about the destination and subsequent behavioral intention, using a multi-cultural sample of 213 digital nomads who visited Croatia. We demonstrate how differences in cognitive understanding and social interactions lead to differential affect-laden attitudes about destination and behavioral intention.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48469,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Management","volume":"109 ","pages":"Article 105153"},"PeriodicalIF":10.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143387073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An online survey study was conducted recruiting 319 participants in the United States who experienced interactions with chatbots, and SPSS PROCESS Macro bootstrapping was used to test the hypotheses. The results confirmed that message relevance and message warmth negatively affect uniqueness neglect, which in turn positively affects perceived chatbot artificiality, and negatively affects perceived chatbot rapport, and perceived chatbot intelligence. The results also confirmed the mediating role of uniqueness neglect, perceived chatbot rapport, and perceived chatbot intelligence. This research contributes to the understanding of how chatbot realism can improve service recovery.

An international hidden entrepreneur arises when local regulations impose high costs on an international entrepreneur operating as the legal head of an enterprise, therefore giving rise to a concealed partnership with a local entrepreneur to serve as the official managing director. The IHEs in our study typically originate from emerging market nations. Drawing on qualitative data from 44 participants, we examine the complexities of (1) mechanisms of IHE practices, (2) catalysts to the rise of IHEs, and (3) ethical and economic impacts of the presence of IHEs and their implications for the local economy. We establish the existence of IHEs as a still underexplored phenomenon and the advantages and disadvantages of the system in consonance with the cognitive, regulative, and normative pillars of institutional theory. Our findings reveal that IHEs arise as a response to stringent regulatory barriers, socio-cultural norms, and cognitive skill gaps. This study contributes to institutional theory by demonstrating how these pillars intersect in the Saudi context, offering novel insights into informal entrepreneurship and its challenges to Saudi Vision 2030.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Innovation & Knowledge","volume":"10 2","pages":"Article 100669"},"PeriodicalIF":15.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143387112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study used the Combined COVID-19 MENA Monitor Household Survey (CCMMHH), compiled by the Economic Research Forum in 2020–21. To determine the key factors affecting food insecurity, multivariate regression with fixed effects for waves and administrative zones was employed to capture the unobservable factors. Permanent and temporary loss of jobs and decrease in wages were identified as significant independent risk factors for experiencing food insecurity. Work characteristics played a significant role in shaping food security in the surveyed Arab countries. The pandemic has highlighted the social groups whose food security must be protected to achieve economic stability in light of such crises.</p>","PeriodicalId":44825,"journal":{"name":"ECONOMIC AFFAIRS","volume":"45 1","pages":"100-122"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143389358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores an important while under-researched impact of contract enforcement on opportunism in manufacturer-distributor relationship, with a functional approach to contract enforcement adopted. A framework integrating different levels of analysis is developed to comprehensively examine how the impacts posed by mechanisms, contractual control enforcement and contractual coordination enforcement, differ as the levels of institutional development and information technology (IT) capability vary. This study analyzes data from manufacturers and one secondary dataset, empirically confirming the direct and negative impacts of contractual control/coordination enforcement on opportunism. Furthermore, the institutional development reinforces the deterrent effect of contractual control enforcement on opportunism, while having no impact on the effect on the contractual coordination enforcement in suppressing opportunism. Besides, the efficacy of contractual coordination enforcement in constraining opportunism can be strengthened by IT capability, which, however, weakens the opportunism-curbing effect of contractual control enforcement. Overall, this study addresses the relationship between contractual governance and organizational and environmental contingencies, developing useful implications for interfirm relationship management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51345,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Marketing Management","volume":"126 ","pages":"Pages 56-71"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143387633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
