Drawing from stewardship theory, it proposes that both organizational LTO and pay satisfaction will inversely influence employees’ intentions to quit. Furthermore, these two antecedents are expected to have an interactive influence on turnover intentions. The theoretical model was empirically tested with data collected from an online survey of 335 white-collar employees across various industries in Türkiye. The data were analyzed using moderated multiple regressions. The findings provide empirical support for the hypothesized negative relationships between both organizational LTO and pay satisfaction with employees' intentions to leave their jobs. Furthermore, LTO has a significant moderating effect. When pay satisfaction is low, LTO significantly reduces turnover intentions. No significant effect is found when pay satisfaction is high. Hence, the study shows that pay satisfaction has a key influence on employees’ decisions to remain with the organization, especially in the context of high levels of unemployment and economic uncertainty observed in developing countries like Türkiye. Nevertheless, the study findings also suggest that organizations that have a high level of LTO can buffer at least some of the negative effects of low pay on employee retention.","PeriodicalId":491329,"journal":{"name":"Business and Economics Research Journal","volume":"19 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796411","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}

Specifically, the study investigates the effect of product knowledge level on brand image and brand loyalty, the effect of brand image on brand loyalty, and how brand image mediates the effect of product knowledge on the brand loyalty of mobile phone users. The participants of the study were mobile phone users in the prominent cities of Turkey. A total of 426 participants were identified with the utilization of convenience sampling methodology and the data collection process was executed through a questionnaire distributed electronically. The results of the study confirmed the direct positive and significant effects of the product knowledge level of consumers on brand image and brand loyalty. On the other hand, the image perception of consumers regarding the mobile phone brand is found to have a significant and positive direct effect on brand loyalty. When brand image is included in the model as a mediating variable, the direct effect of product knowledge on brand loyalty turns into an insignificant one, which confirms the mediating role of brand image on the effect of product knowledge on brand loyalty.","PeriodicalId":491329,"journal":{"name":"Business and Economics Research Journal","volume":"10 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796664","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}

While there has been much study on the effectiveness and success of internships in fields like health, engineering, and teaching, there is a scarcity of studies examining how internship experiences might impact the career outcomes of business students. Based on social cognitive career theory, this study aims to explore business students' internship experiences and their potential influence on their career resources. A qualitative research design was employed in this study. Two diverse focus group studies, which consisted of thirteen students in total, were conducted to investigate the participants’ internship experiences deeply. The findings were analyzed using thematic content analysis. Based on the results, two themes emerged: “internship satisfaction factors” and “career resources.” The findings showed that internship experiences make significant contributions to the career development process by providing vital skills, including networking, communication, and job searching, in addition to facilitating the transfer of theoretical knowledge into practice. The findings provide valuable insights for scholars and policymakers in higher education institutions and various organizations interested in establishing internship programs.","PeriodicalId":491329,"journal":{"name":"Business and Economics Research Journal","volume":"11 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796658","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 proposes a methodology to identify the most essential and impactful responsibilities for leaders. Utilizing the Delphi technique, decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL), and analytical network process (ANP), data were collected from 40 respondents representing diverse stakeholder groups. The study first identified five major criteria through Delphi technique which included: (a) needs of the surrounding community, (b) areas with minimal government support, (c) enhancement of organizational image, (d) contribution to organizational performance, and (e) quantity of resources required. DEMATEL analysis revealed that criterion (e) was the most influential, followed by (b), (c), (a), and (d). Criteria (a), (b), and (c) acted as influencers, whereas (d) and (e) were receivers. Then, using the Delphi technique, five key responsibilities were identified: (R1) supporting children’s education, (R2) capacity building for the local community, (R3) setting up water filtration plants, (R4) improving the working environment, and (R5) reducing discrimination. ANP analysis prioritized these responsibilities according to the already identified criteria as R1, R2, R5, R4, and R3 respectively. This structured approach is expected to guide leaders in making decisions to allocate resources optimally, thereby maximizing benefits for both the organization and the community.","PeriodicalId":491329,"journal":{"name":"Business and Economics Research Journal","volume":"10 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796661","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}

Through an empirical study, data was collected from 388 consumers in Turkey. SmartPLS was used to test the proposed hypotheses. Several key findings were reached: (i) Anthropomorphism impacts consumers' performance expectations positively. (ii) Anthropomorphism does not influence positive attitudes towards artificial intelligence. (iii) Consumers' performance expectations have significantly positive effects on positive attitudes towards artificial intelligence and also on positive emotions. (iv) Positive emotions do not influence positive attitudes towards artificial intelligence. (v) Positive attitudes towards artificial intelligence significantly have positive effects on consumers’ engagement on social media. (vi) Social media self-efficacy has a positive effect on consumers’ engagement on social media. (vii) Consumers’ social media engagement impacts purchase behavior positively. Establishing a comprehensive framework, this study offers valuable insights into the intricate relationships among anthropomorphism, performance expectations, emotions, attitudes, social media self-efficacy, social media engagement, and consumer purchase decisions in the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence. The study contributes to the literature by examining the antecedents and consequences of consumers’ positive attitudes toward artificial intelligence with a comprehensive model. Besides, understanding the drivers that push consumers to generate positive attitudes toward artificial intelligence and the consequences of these positive attitudes is crucial for marketing managers and businesses.","PeriodicalId":491329,"journal":{"name":"Business and Economics Research Journal","volume":"4 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796401","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}

To test this model, hopelessness, organizational performance, and emotion regulation was measured in employees working in the banking sector. In total, 221 employees completed this study and to test research hypothesis structural equation modeling was used. The current study demonstrated that hopelessness has a significant negative relationship with both emotion regulation and organizational performance. It was also found that emotion regulation has a mediating effect on this relationship where higher emotion regulation decreases its strength. Additionally, t-test and ANOVA analyzes were used to reveal differences between demographic variables and study variables. Efforts of employees to develop their emotion regulation abilities in a variety of situations may play an important role in reducing the negative effects of hopelessness and develop the performance of individuals.
