Purpose – The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of a high-performance work system on human resource performance and the mediating effect of informal learning in this causal relationship. Design/Methodology/Approach – The research method of this study is a quantitative approach, and the data was aggregated to the 1st Human Capital Corporate Panel Survey II (HCCPS) by the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education & Training (KRIVET) due to its focus on the experience of accounting experts in Korean companies. A total of 1,024 participants were included in this study. Findings – The study found that high-involvement work organization and high-commitment HRM had a positive effect on organizational commitment and job competence in Korean companies, and that informal learning had a partial mediating effect in the causal relationship between a high-involvement work organization and organizational commitment and job competence. Research Implications – From a theoretical perspective, this research highlights the importance of informal learning in linking high-performance work system with human resource performance. In addition, this study also demonstrates the relational impact of high-commitment HRM and high-involvement work organization in Korean companies, further expanding the literature on workplace performance. From a practical perspective, this study suggests that companies need to incorporate effective high performance work systems, and build an environment to enable active informal learning opportunities. In addition, institutions should promote learning initiatives to maximize human resource effectiveness, ultimately improving organizational performance.

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to analyze the structure and characteristics of RTA-DSM, and to analyze the potential of RTA-DSM as an alternative to the WTO-DSM in the crisis of the WTO dispute sttlement system. Design/Methodology/Approach – This paper largely is a literature review. It adopts a method of examining the texts of regional trade agreements based on the WTO RTA database. In addition, this study does not perform legal analysis as much as possible, and analyzes RTA-DSM from an institutional point of view. Findings – RTA-DSM has a similar structure to the WTO-DSM. However, the content of RTA-DSM is insufficient compared to the WTO-DSM, and as a result, there are few cases of dispute resolution. The crisis of the Appellate Body and the rapid evolution of RTA-DSM have increased the importance of RTA-DSM as an alternative to the WTO-DSM. The introduction of dispute settlement systems in regional trade agreements is an irreversible trend, and considering the usefulness, cases of dispute resolution using RTA-DSM will increase rapidly in the future. Research Implications – RTA-DSM cannot completely replace the WTO-DSM. In the long term, WTODSM should be restored, and RTA-DSM should play a supplementary role. The centrality of the WTO, which supports the multilateral trade system, must be maintained through the restoration of the WTO-DSM.

Purpose – Indonesia has always experienced a deficit in the balance of payments in the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) sector. However, it is hoped that the high value of Indonesian IPR imports will be beneficial in increasing the attractiveness of FDI, encouraging economic growth, and increasing IPR exports. The purpose of this research is to examine the causal relationship between IPR imports (MIPR), IPR exports (XIPR), incoming FDI in the manufacturing sector (FDI), and economic growth (GGDP) in the case of Indonesia. Design/Methodology/Approach – The data used in this research are time series data from the first quarter of 2004 to the fourth quarter of 2021. These data are analyzed using the VECM approach. Findings – The study results show that MIPR has dominated Indonesia’s total trade in this sector. The contribution of import value is 95 percent compared to exports, which are only 5 percent. The VECM estimation results show a one-way Granger causality relationship from the independent variables (FDI, GGDP, and XIPR) to MIPR as a dependent variable. In a short-term causality relationship, IPR imports encourage FDI inflows into Indonesia. Then, FDI in the manufacturing sector significantly impacts Indonesia’s IPR exports. Research Implications – Indonesia’s outflow of money to pay for the use of foreign IPR can encourage the entry of FDI in the manufacturing sector, resulting in a technology transfer that produces domestic IPR, which can be sold abroad.

Purpose - In the face of an increasingly competitive business environment and the growing complexity and dynamism of work activities, employee voice and creative behaviors are essential to organizational growth and survival. Consequently, this study examines how to increase voice and creative behaviors in organizational life using transformational leadership and transactional leadership as the entry points, and selecting job crafting as the mediating variable. Design/Methodology/Approach - A hypothesized model was developed to examine the relationship between the constructs. The sample for the study comprised 364 Chinese employees. Data were analyzed using SPSS and structural equation modelling in AMOS. Findings - Transformational leadership and transactional leadership positively impact job crafting, voice behavior, and creative behavior, complementing the existing theory. Furthermore, this study finds that through job crafting, transformational leadership has an enhanced impact on voice and creative behaviors. Research Implications - Transformational leadership and transactional leadership are two separate and complementary types of leadership. Therefore, organizations should develop leaders that can flexibly use both styles to improve leadership effectiveness. Furthermore, the organization should pay more attention to employee job crafting, voice behavior, and creative behavior. Organizations or supervisors should appropriately grant employees work autonomy to respond to the rapidly changing external environment.

Purpose - With renewed greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, abatement commitments and the rejoining of the Paris Climate Agreement of 2015 by the U.S., this study assesses the impact of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions reduction, and the opportunity cost of the U.S. in implementing its nationally determined commitments (NDCs). Design/Methodology/Approach - The study employs the GTAP-E model, an extension of the static GTAP model with CO₂ emissions trading, and GTAP DB version 10A with a base year of 2014. Model implementation includes a baseline scenario that projects the global economy from 2014 to 2030, and four policy scenarios representing the implementation of U.S. NDC targets without and with emissions trading. Findings - Simulation results suggest that CO₂ emissions reduction with trading significantly lowers the emissions abatement cost compared to CO₂ emissions reduction with no trading. Furthermore, the study finds that CO₂ emissions reduction leads to a drop in industry output by all energy and most non-energy sectors. Simulation results illustrate that CO₂ emissions reduction by the U.S. significantly affects most of its trading partners’ real GDPs, welfare, export and import flows, and industry outputs. Research Implications - The study provides a comprehensive impact assessment of global CO₂ emissions reduction, including U.S. contributions to addressing climate change. Moreover, the study has quantified the opportunity cost the U.S. will likely pay for meeting its NDC targets, and the likely impact of CO₂ emissions reduction by the U.S. on its major trading partners, especially the EU, Korea, Japan, and China.
目的——随着温室气体(GHG)排放的增加、减排承诺的增加以及美国重新加入2015年《巴黎气候协定》，本研究评估了二氧化碳(CO 2)减排的影响，以及美国在实施其国家自主承诺(NDCs)方面的机会成本。设计/方法/方法-该研究采用GTAP- e模型，该模型是包含二氧化碳排放交易的静态GTAP模型的扩展，以及GTAP DB 10A版，基准年为2014年。模型实施包括预测2014年至2030年全球经济的基线情景，以及代表美国在没有和有排放交易的情况下实现国家自主贡献目标的四种政策情景。研究结果:模拟结果表明，与不进行交易的CO₂排放量减少相比，通过交易减少CO₂排放量显著降低了减排成本。此外，该研究还发现，二氧化碳排放量的减少会导致所有能源和大多数非能源部门的工业产出下降。模拟结果表明，美国的CO₂减排显著影响了大多数贸易伙伴的实际gdp、福利、进出口流量和产业产出。研究意义:该研究对全球二氧化碳排放量的减少进行了全面的影响评估，包括美国对应对气候变化的贡献。此外，该研究还量化了美国为实现NDC目标可能付出的机会成本，以及美国减少CO₂排放对其主要贸易伙伴(特别是欧盟、韩国、日本和中国)可能产生的影响。

Purpose - Given the significance of concerns raised about the global shift toward protectionism under trade policy uncertainty context, and echoed by requests to contribute to issues that concern a wider variety of stakeholders, this study aims to review new trade protection measures in response to the pandemic crisis and their effects on export performance from an emerging country’s exporters. Design/Methodology/Approach - Research data were gathered by surveying 613 export managers of different types of exporters in Vietnam from a list of exporters provided by Ministry of Industry and Trade, and then applied a regression model for analysis. Findings - The study demonstrated a negative relationship between firm export performance and six trade protectionism measures, including industrial subsidies, public-procurement restrictions, FDI restrictions, standards protectionism, green protectionism, and regional integration. Only restrictions on migrant workers had no appreciable impact on firm export performance. Additionally, only employee number, out of the three control factors, significantly and positively affected how well firms succeed in exporting. Research Implications - The study’s findings have significant ramifications and contributions to theory and practice in international trade for an emerging country to overcome new trade protectionism measures. To support firms in expanding export markets, the government of an emerging country should concentrate on establishing and developing policies to support exporters, especially small and medium enterprises. Firms should pursue a sustainable export strategy in light of the emergence of new trade protectionism in significant import markets.

Purpose - As the spread of COVID-19 has weakened recently, countries have switched to ‘with Corona’ policies. The hotel service industry, which has been hit hard in sales, is also making every effort to overcome difficulties through various brand strategies to provide high-quality services to customers and strengthen relationship quality through the trust of service employees at service points. Therefore, this study aims to verify the mediating role of employee trust in the relationship between perceived service quality and brand satisfaction and brand trust, and the causal effect of brand commitment by verifying whether brand satisfaction and brand trust affect brand loyalty or through brand commitment. Design/Methodology/Approach - Data were collected from consumers with experience using upscale hotels in Korea, and the research hypotheses were verified by structural equation model analysis using the SPSS 21.0 and Amos 21.0 statistical packages. Findings - First, the mediating effect of employee trust was confirmed in the relationship between perceived service quality, brand satisfaction, and brand trust. Second, brand satisfaction influenced brand trust and brand commitment, and brand trust influenced brand commitment. Third, brand satisfaction did not directly affect brand loyalty, but it did affect brand trust and brand commitment, and these constructs affected brand loyalty. Research Implications - In conclusion, it is necessary to manage service training for employees, as interactions with customers at the service point can provide the correct service and strengthen brand loyalty by identifying each component of brand relationship quality and checking the influence in the channel relationship.

The hotel service industry, which has been hit hard in sales, is also making every effort to overcome difficulties through various brand strategies to provide high-quality services to customers and strengthen relationship quality through the trust of service employees at service points. Therefore, this study aims to verify the mediating role of employee trust in the relationship between perceived service quality and brand satisfaction and brand trust, and the causal effect of brand commitment by verifying whether brand satisfaction and brand trust affect brand loyalty or through brand commitment. \u0000Design/Methodology/Approach - Data were collected from consumers with experience using upscale hotels in Korea, and the research hypotheses were verified by structural equation model analysis using the SPSS 21.0 and Amos 21.0 statistical packages. \u0000Findings - First, the mediating effect of employee trust was confirmed in the relationship between perceived service quality, brand satisfaction, and brand trust. Second, brand satisfaction influenced brand trust and brand commitment, and brand trust influenced brand commitment. Third, brand satisfaction did not directly affect brand loyalty, but it did affect brand trust and brand commitment, and these constructs affected brand loyalty. \u0000Research Implications - In conclusion, it is necessary to manage service training for employees, as interactions with customers at the service point can provide the correct service and strengthen brand loyalty by identifying each component of brand relationship quality and checking the influence in the channel relationship.","PeriodicalId":190222,"journal":{"name":"International Academy of Global Business and Trade","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131705371","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}

Purpose - Previous research on SPS (Simple Payment Service) includes studies focusing on the intention to adopt or to continue use. Therefore, there is a limitation in explaining the motivation of multiple users among Generation Z that have already adopted SPS. This study focuses on examining the factors affecting the switching intention of multiple users among Generation Z from one SPS to another based on the PPM (push, pull and mooring) model. Design/Methodology/Approach - This study applied the PPM model to explain the switching intention of multiple users. A total of 235 university students in their 20s with experience using two or more simple payment services were collected and analyzed. Findings - All three factors of the PPM model were found to have a statistically significant effect on switching intention. That is, intention to switch to other SPS was high, even though the consumers habitually used it or were reluctant to change. Research Implications - SPS providers need an effective PPM strategy to retain customers by providing benefits in terms of ease of use, versatility (online and offline payment), and price to prevent deviation from the service. It is also important to ensure the relative advantage and reliability of the service, and to implement favorable marketing tailored to the 20s.
目的-先前对SPS(简单支付服务)的研究包括关注采用或继续使用的意图。因此，解释已经采用SPS的Z世代中多个用户的动机是有局限性的。本研究主要基于PPM (push, pull and mooring)模型研究影响Z世代多个用户从一个SPS切换到另一个SPS的因素。设计/方法/方法-本研究应用PPM模型来解释多个用户的转换意图。对235名20多岁的大学生进行了调查，并分析了他们使用两种以上简单支付服务的经历。发现- PPM模型的所有三个因素都被发现对转换意图有统计上显著的影响。也就是说，即使消费者习惯使用其他SPS或不愿意改变，但转换到其他SPS的意愿很高。研究意义- SPS供应商需要一个有效的PPM策略，通过提供易用性、多功能性(在线和离线支付)和价格方面的好处来留住客户，以防止偏离服务。确保服务的相对优势和可靠性，实施针对20多岁人群的有利营销也很重要。
