This study seeks to delve deeper into the work engagement of millennial lecturers in Indonesian higher education, including both predictors and consequences. This study employs a mixed-methods approach through a sequential exploratory design. First, its conducts an extensive literature review to formulate research hypotheses, which were then assessed quantitatively using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling. Occupational self-efficacy and perceived organizational support manifest as personal and job resources, respectively, and dominate the work engagement literature. Specifically, the study demonstrates that occupational self-efficacy can moderate the effect of perceived organizational support on work engagement. Furthermore, work engagement acts as an important mediator in the relationship between perceived organizational support and organizational engagement. From the viewpoints of social exchange theory and self-determination theory, the findings of this study shed light on the underlying mechanism of the effect of perceived organizational support on millennial lecturers' organizational engagement. This study is one of only a few that focus on both work engagement and organizational engagement within an integrative conceptual framework.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84082569","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}

From the three proposed models, namely OLS, ARIMAX and Error Correction Model (ECM), the ECM model was selected as the best. By using the Montecarlo simulation, an estimate was made of the possible future value of the NPF in Islamic banking. The study established that exchange rates, economic disparities, inflation, economic growth and interest rates showed positive and significant effects on bank credit risk whereas inflation produced negative effects. The non-performing finance (NPF) was also estimated using the Montecarlo simulation using one million trials. The results were subsequently used to conduct a stress test for the projected NPF. With 99% confidence, the maximum potential value of bad credit was 21%. The maximum NPF bad credit was attained under confidence level of 95%.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85929847","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}

Its culture has complex interactions among multicultural and multi-lingual people, with diverse faiths and religions. This study investigates how a multicultural and multi-religious society responds to the influx of Korean products in the market and explores the differences in responses between fans and non-fans of the Korean Wave.Design/Methodology – Using the Online Focus Group Discussions (FGD) technique, qualitative research was conducted with ten participants to investigate multicultural Malaysians’ response to Korean country and product image.Findings – Through questions asked during the FGDs, themes that explain Malaysians’ perceptions of the Korean country image, Korean culture, and Korean products were identified. “Valuing relationship”, “Asian compatibility”, “natural and authentic”, “creativity and innovation”, “projection of boldness and confidence”, “cautious followers”, and “protective and caring culture” were primarily identified, representing positive attributes; “cosmetic surgery” was viewed negatively.Originality/value – Studies about the influence of culture and religion on Malaysian consumers’ responses toward Korean products are scarce. The findings of this study would provide insights into Malaysian consumers from diverse ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds. Understanding how foreign products enter and remain successful in a country like Malaysia could provide valuable insights to other countries and SMEs planning to enter new multicultural markets.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73132612","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}

Bibliometric analysis was conducted through the searching method on the Scopus database. The search string for the Scopus database was conducted systematically. A total of 2215 documents were identified and screened for the scope of this study. Data screening was performed, and no duplicates were found in the document list. Therefore, 445 documents were removed. A total of 1770 published articles were analysed using Microsoft Excel, VOSviewer, and Harzing’s Publish or Perish. The analysis revealed that the study of turnover intentions displays an increasing trend annually. The majority of articles are published in English, whereas the United States of America (USA) generated the highest number of publications. Osman M. Karatepe is the author with the highest number of publications and article citations in this analysis. The Journal of Vocational Behavior has the highest citation impact. In addition, a well-known publication entitled \"Job Satisfaction, Organizational Commitment, Turnover Intention, and Turnover: Path Analyses Based on Meta-Analytic Findings\" authored by Tett and Meyer (1993) has the highest citation with 65.21 per year. Concepts related to turnover intention such as job satisfaction, nurses, organizational commitment, turnover and burnout were the most frequently studied.

The annual reports of 150 companies listed on the main market, Bursa Malaysia, for the year ended 2014 were examined to analyze the companies' integrated reporting practices using content analysis. An integrated reporting index was constructed following the key elements of the integrated reporting framework established by the International Integrated Reporting Committee (IIRC). The study considered four corporate governance mechanisms: board composition, board size, board diversity, and ownership structure. The study used Multiple regressions to measure the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on the companies' integrated reporting initiatives. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to measure the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on the level of the companies' integrated reporting. The results showed that Malaysian companies' reporting of financial and non-financial information has not yet been integrated. Based on SEM analysis, the results indicated that only one variable, namely, the board size, was associated with the extent of integrated reporting. Board size was the most significant variable that influenced the level of integrated reporting of Malaysian public listed companies in 2014. The study contributes to the integrated reporting literature. It presents empirical evidence that corporate governance mechanisms influence companies' disclosure of integrated reporting information and, thus, providing additional data or information that will be significantly helpful for other researchers. The study will also stimulate the interest of academics in research activities concerning the characteristics of corporate governance mechanisms on integrated reporting activities. The findings are limited to the context of the study. It only looks at corporate governance mechanisms as a critical driver of integrated reporting and uses only the annual report disclosures from a single year.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88696132","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}

Retaining existing customers and attracting new customers has always been the challenge faced by service-based industries, which include private healthcare, primarily in hospitals. As a niche sector, private hospitals' tasks address demanding customer expectations. Based on the past reviews of the literature, this study proposes a few aspects to be investigated in the context of private hospitals in Malaysia. Data was collected and distributed using an online survey. The model was validated using Smart PLS (version 3.3.2) software and SPSS for data analysis. The sampling technique used was non-probability. The analysis revealed that brand trust significantly correlates with customer brand engagement which subsequently influences brand equity in private hospitals and is moderated by service quality for critical incidence. These findings give insight to policymakers, the healthcare industry, mainly private hospitals and academic fields to discover the influences to contemplate in this sector and remain competitive strategically.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91360919","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}

{"title":"THE SPEED OF ADJUSTMENT TOWARDS OPTIMAL CAPITAL STRUCTURE: DO OWNERSHIP CONCENTRATION AND BOARD DIVERSITY MATTER?","authors":"Hanis Adiela, Abdul Hadi","doi":"10.33736/ijbs.5627.2023","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33736/ijbs.5627.2023","url":null,"abstract":"Using a partial adjustment model of capital structure, this study examines the role of ownership concentration and board diversity on the speed of adjustment towards optimal leverage. While a degree of ownership concentration can create value, board diversity on the other hand, is vital for companies to endure shifting market conditions. Both components are necessary for leveraging the outcomes of recent Malaysian Corporate Governance Strategic Priorities (2017-2023). As such, recognizing factors that could hinder the adjustment process is important as firms may deviate from their optimal leverage. The analysis of this study includes the top 100 non-financial Malaysian listed companies from 2012 to 2017. Evidence from this study indicates large Malaysian firms have optimal leverage and adjust at a modest rate towards their target in the long-term. The results are robust when using two alternative measures of ownership concentration, which are the single largest shareholder (OC1) and five largest shareholders (OC5). This study reveals both proxies have negative impact on adjustment speed. In other words, large firms with high level of concentrated ownership adjust their leverage slower towards the optimal level. Likewise, a negative significant relationship is found between board diversity and adjustment speed with the presence of OC5. Firm size is also found to have a significant impact on adjustment speed. These results potentially have long-term ramifications for corporate governance, as specific prerogatives for minority shareholders and directors representing them are required to reduce the negative externalities brought by concentrated ownership. Firms should outweigh the cost and benefits of board diversity, as more diverse boards may hinder the adjustment process.","PeriodicalId":13836,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82708253","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}
