Furthermore, there is a scarcity of research focused on the mediator role of EP in the nexus between AI and OP. This ambiguity underscores the need for a comprehensive understanding of how AI interacts with EP and OP within specific organizational contexts, such as Ethio Telecom. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of AI on OP with a mediating role of EP. Quantitative data was collected through an online survey using Kobo Toolbox from 172 purposively selected employees. AI was modeled as third-order formative construct, while EP and OP were first-order reflective constructs. The variables were measured using validated multi-item questionnaires with a 7-point Likert scale. The association between these variables was investigated with PLS-SEM in SMART PLS 4.1.03. The results showed that there were positive and significant relationships between AI and EP, AI and OP, EP and OP, and AI on OP through EP. Furthermore, EP served as a partial mediator between OP and AI. These findings are consistent with previous studies and theories, such as the resource-based view and human capital theories. The results suggest that organizations can dramatically improve performance in the digital age by implementing AI and creating a work environment that encourages productivity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100474"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, expert interviews were conducted to gather deeper insights. In the quantitative phase, data collected from surveys were analyzed using various methods, including Cronbach’s Alpha method, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) method, and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) method. The analysis results show that all four factors (Policies and Regulations, Human Resources, Information Technology, and Organizational Culture) positively impact accounting information security control, which in turn directly influences the effectiveness of internal control. Measurement scales were developed for each factor. The study also confirmed that six variables link accounting information security control with improved internal control effectiveness. After excluding unreliable variables, the model was validated through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), and all hypotheses were accepted. The research results make an important contribution to the development of knowledge about the role of accounting information security control in enhancing the internal control’s effectiveness in Vietnamese enterprises.

It is crucial for organization’s survival in today’s competitive environment. Therefore, knowledge management is equally important as managing other resources and capabilities for gaining a competitive advantage. The issue of knowledge management has become a growing concern and hot topic for management research, especially in organisations like universities, where knowledge creation and management is essential. This paper investigates the link between knowledge management effectiveness, departments’ innovation, and performance of universities, through the case of King Faisal University (KFU). KFU was founded in 1975 by royal decree on the 6th of Jamada II, 1397 H, in Al-Hofuf, Al-Ahsa, Saudi Arabia and includes 16 colleges such as Business Administration, Art, Agriculture and Food Sciences, Veterinary, Clinical Pharmacy and Medicine. Based on an exploratory survey conducted among 115 participants from KFU, the results of structural model using SEM analysis reveal that knowledge management effectiveness significantly and positively influences departments’ innovation (β= 0.34, p < 0.001) and KFU performance (β= 0.572, p < 0.001). Additionally, departments’ innovation significantly and positively influences KFU performance (β= 0.37, p < 0.01). Furthermore, the results suggest that departments’ innovation acts as a mediator in the link between knowledge management effectiveness and performance of KFU (β= 0.129, with p = 0.021 <0.05). Various implications are then discussed for scholars and university administrators.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100473"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A multitude of analytical techniques, including panel fixed effects regression, panel mediation effects regression, panel moderation effects regression, and two-stage instrumental variable regression, are employed to investigate these impacts. The findings reveal that a digital strategy exerts a significant and positive influence on firm innovation investment. Furthermore, the mechanism through which this impact occurs is elucidated: digital strategy fosters company innovation investment by augmenting investments in R&D human capital and digital infrastructure. Heterogeneity analysis underscores that the implementation of a digital strategy has a more pronounced effect on company innovation investment under conditions of high financial constraints. Conversely, when institutional investors hold a larger proportion of shares, the impact of digital strategy implementation on company innovation investment is less pronounced. The robustness of these findings is confirmed through additional tests, such as two-stage instrumental variable regression, a panel random effects model, and substitution of the dependent variable. These results collectively offer a scientific rationale for companies to adopt digital strategies and enhance their innovation investment endeavors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100471"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Good governance and an effective financial system are vital for managing natural resources sustainably. This study investigates the roles of good governance and innovative financial systems—including digital financial inclusion, green finance, and FinTech—in influencing natural resource management. Additionally, it explores how good governance moderates the effects of these variables on natural resources. Using a panel dataset of 18 nations for 2013–2019 years, we employ a hybrid methodology that integrates Fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA), Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA), and econometric modeling. fsQCA is employed to uncover and examine intricate combinations of causal conditions of the researched variables that together contribute to natural resource management. Our findings reveal that while green finance positively impacts natural resources, FinTech and digital financial inclusion initially have negative effects. However, these negative impacts are reversed under the moderating influence of good governance, resulting in positive outcomes. High levels of good governance consistently interact with varying levels of green finance, FinTech, and digital financial inclusion to foster natural resource management. Furthermore, good governance plays a critical role in shaping the necessary conditions for sustainable resource utilization. The study emphasizes the importance of governance reforms to achieve sustainable resource management. By identifying essential conditions for natural resource utilization, the research provides actionable insights for targeted policy interventions and strategic initiatives.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100468"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143138104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
