This study aims to compare the nasalance and nasal airflow between professional singers trained in Carnatic classical singing and non-singers. We also aimed to correlate perceived nasality with objective measurements of nasalance and nasal airflow. A total of 40 female participants (20 to 50 years) were involved in this study. The first group comprised 15 female professional Carnatic singers with a minimum of 10 years of classical training. The second group consisted of 25 non-singer females. These participants were compared on nasalance, nasal airflow and perceived nasality across three sets of stimuli (vowels, oral non-words, and nasal non-words) and three pitch-conditions (low, mid, and high). Correlations were also made between objective measures of nasalance and nasal airflow and perceived nasality. Mixed ANOVA showed a significant (P < 0.05) interaction in nasalance between pitch conditions and groups. Group differences were also observed in the nasalance scores of vowels, oral non-words, nasal non-words. There was a significant difference (P < 0.05) in nasalance with ascending pitch in singers and non-singers. A comparison of aerodynamic analysis of vowels, oral non-words, and nasal non-words between singers and non-singers suggested that nasal airflow was higher in singers. Perceptual nasality was significantly lower (P < 0.05) in Carnatic singers than non-singers. Correlations between objective measures of nasalance and nasal airflow and perceived nasality were not observed. Despite an increased airflow, nasality was lower in trained Carnatic singers than non-singers. Current findings suggest that vocal training impacts nasalance, nasal airflow and perceived nasality.

Abstract Purpose: This article presents the results of qualitative research performed through the semi-structured interviews to elaborate a theoretical-methodological human resources churning model that will allow to statistically describe the relations of interdependence between the selected variables, to analyze their impact, and to test hypotheses in future studies. Originality/value: The relevance of this study lies in the opportunity to contribute to the development of such an intricate, unexplored topic, with scarcely available literature and empirical studies, providing the elaboration of an interview script as an instrument for data collection that facilitates future studies. Churning of human resources (excess of turnover) is solely related to the replacement of workers who voluntarily choose to leave organizations (Burgess et al., 2000). Design/methodology/approach: This study follows a qualitative approach. The process of data collection consisted of developing a semi-structured interview guide to gather information through the performance of 20 interviews. Findings: Through the analysis of the results, it was possible to ascertain that the more favorable churning dimensions are, the greater the retention of workers in organizations. Thus, the elaboration and application of strategic measures by organizations become relevant for the retention of the most experienced and qualified workers in order to avoid high costs with new hiring, which are a direct result of such replacements (churning).
摘要目的:本文介绍了通过半结构化访谈进行的定性研究结果，以阐述一个理论-方法的人力资源流失模型，该模型将允许统计描述所选变量之间的相互依存关系，分析它们的影响，并在未来的研究中检验假设。原创性/价值:本研究的相关性在于有机会为这样一个复杂的、未探索的话题的发展做出贡献，几乎没有文献和实证研究，提供了一个访谈脚本的阐述，作为数据收集的工具，有助于未来的研究。人力资源的流动(过度流动)仅与自愿选择离开组织的员工的替代有关(Burgess et al.， 2000)。设计/方法/方法:本研究采用定性方法。数据收集过程包括制定半结构化访谈指南，通过20次访谈的表现来收集信息。研究发现:通过对结果的分析，可以确定的是，越有利的搅动维度，员工在组织中的保留越大。因此，各组织的战略措施的制订和应用与保留最有经验和合格的工人有关，以便避免新雇用的高成本，这是这种替换(搅动)的直接结果。

Abstract Purpose: To analyze the effects of psychological resilience and managerial attitudes (job involvement and commitment to budget goals) on the relationship between participative budgeting and managerial performance. Originality/value: The present study innovates by providing evidence of the cognitive effects of psychological resilience, the affective effects of job involvement, and budget goal commitment on the relationship between budgetary participation and managerial performance, which is the theoretical gap explored. Design/methodology/approach: Descriptive and quantitative survey research carried out through structural equation modeling (SEM) with a sample composed of 251 controllers working in companies in Southern Brazil. Findings: The findings show that the intervening variables (psychological resilience and managerial attitudes) exert a positive influence on the tested relations. The results demonstrate that participative budgeting influences managerial performance through the cognitive effects of psychological resilience, combined with the affective effects of budget goal commitment. Job involvement enhances levels of psychological resilience and has positive effects on managerial performance. Thus, it can be concluded that budget configuration influences controllers’ resilience levels and contributes to their commitment to budget goals, as it triggers cognitive and affective reactions that increase managerial performance.

Abstract Purpose: To present suggestions for behavioral competency development for engineers and Engineering students to work in Industry 4.0. Originality/value: A human-machine collaboration model (with artificial intelligence application) is proposed for training engineering professionals for the workplace. The behavioral skills for Industry 4.0 to be developed in Engineering degree programs and the quality of evidence of their inclusion in such programs of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro [UFRJ]) are assessed. Design/methodology/approach: The engineer-machine collaboration model draws on Design Thinking (Brown, 2010) and cognitive modeling of engineers based on a model of logical reasoning (Paul & Elder, 2002), integrating the cognitive model with a model of information flows in human-machine interactions (Riley, 1989). A competency model for Industry 4.0 (Prifti et al., 2017), interviews with leaders of Engineering schools of UFRJ, addressing their planning for the implementation of the new National Curriculum Guidelines for Engineering programs (Resolução no. 2, 2019), and application of the GRADE approach (Balshem et al., 2011) supported the identification of evidence of behavioral competencies for Industry 4.0 in the undergraduate programs. Findings: Engineering professionals train their critical analysis and decision-making skills while the machine searches for and processes information and performs simulations. Low quality evidence was found for the training of undergraduates in emotional intelligence, decision-making, and customer relations. No evidence was identified of training in self-management, entrepreneurship, and understanding of the business model.
摘要目的:为工业4.0环境下工程师和工科学生的行为能力培养提供建议。原创性/价值:提出了一种人机协作模型(与人工智能应用)，用于培训工作场所的工程专业人员。对巴西联邦大学(Universidade Federal do里约热内卢de Janeiro [UFRJ])工程学位课程中发展的工业4.0行为技能及其纳入此类课程的证据质量进行了评估。设计/方法论/方法:工程师-机器协作模型借鉴了设计思维(Brown, 2010)和基于逻辑推理模型的工程师认知模型(Paul & Elder, 2002)，将认知模型与人机交互中的信息流模型相结合(Riley, 1989)。工业4.0的能力模型(Prifti et al.， 2017)，对UFRJ工程学院的领导进行了采访，讨论了他们为实施新的国家工程课程指南(resolution upal o no. 1)制定的计划。2, 2019)，以及GRADE方法的应用(Balshem et al.， 2011)支持在本科课程中识别工业4.0行为能力的证据。发现:工程专业人员训练他们的批判性分析和决策技能，而机器搜索和处理信息并执行模拟。大学生情商、决策和客户关系方面的培训证据质量较低。没有证据表明在自我管理、企业家精神和对商业模式的理解方面进行了培训。

ABSTRACT Purpose: Based on the three-dimensional model of Meyer and Allen (1991), this study outlined organizational commitment profiles (OCP) for public service workers working at two federal universities, as well as sociodemographic and occupational characteristics associated with these profiles. Originality/value: OCP emerged as part of the Brazilian research scenario on organizational commitment (OC), as well as discussions that approached the implications of such profiles, in the public sector and public higher education institutions (HEIs). Design/methodology/approach: The research methodology included quantitative, descriptive, and field-based approaches. In the study, 470 respondents worked in administrative areas of two federal universities in Northeast Brazil in three occupational categories: technical servants, managers, and outsourced workers. The techniques used were exploratory factor analysis and latent profile analysis. Findings: As a basis for modeling the factorial structure of the OC scale (affective, normative, and continuance dimensions), four OCP were identified: uncommitted, affective-continuance commitment, moderate, and affectively committed. The uncommitted were primarily men and workers with less job tenure. The majority of the affective-continuance commitment and affectively committed were occupied by technical public servants and outsourced workers, while managers concentrated on the affective-continuance commitments.

Abstract Purpose: To provide a conceptual framework of the ecosystem of a collaborative research center in project studies. The ecosystem is an environment capable of articulating and integrating different actors, such as academics and practitioners from public and private organizations, non-governmental organizations, and professional associations. Furthermore, it discusses theoretical and empirical frontiers in project studies and produces knowledge and technologies directly applicable to organizations, generating impact at the individual, organizational, and social levels. Originality/value: The creation of a collaborative workspace that includes academics and practitioners in the co-production of knowledge has been highlighted as critical to driving project management forward. The framework establishes a common language among academics and practitioners to enhance the impact of the results of collaborative research on project management. Design/methodology/approach: A systematic literature review was carried out from a search on the Scopus and Web of Science databases, with 11 frameworks being evaluated from the perspective of sustainable impacts. The most appropriate framework was identified, analyzed, and enriched with an additional layer dedicated to project management. Findings: The conceptual framework proposed comprises four layers: project studies, process (resources, activities, outputs, outcomes, and impacts), supporting mechanisms and circumstances, and context. For future studies, we suggest adding empirical data to the proposed structure and evaluating the framework in a collaborative academic environment.

Abstract Purpose: This study aims to measure the religio-spiritual insights of consumers during religious festivals and compare the results considering the stimuli of two advertisements, i.e., religious and irritating advertisements. When the religio-spiritual insights of the consumers are neglected in the designing of a TV advertisement for a religious festival, in particular, it can lead to irritation and affect the consumers’ attitude toward advertising. Based on the theory of reasoned action (TRA), the mediating effect of religio-spiritual insights was measured between consumers’ attitude toward advertising and independent variables (irritation, credibility, information, good for the economy, and entertainment). Originality/value: This study uses the newly developed instrument of religio-spiritual insights to measure their influence on consumers’ attitudes toward advertising and confirms the mediating effect of religio-spiritual insights between the consumers’ attitude and other constructs, such as credibility, entertainment, information, irritation, and good for the economy. Design/methodology/approach: Two hundred and fifty-five household consumers were selected using the non-probability convenience sampling techniques to collect the responses using the survey method. Each respondent was asked to fill out two questionnaires after watching the attached stimulus advertisement, i.e., one religious and one irritating advertisement. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was used to test the hypothesis based on the bootstrapping test. Findings: The results show that religio-spiritual insights significantly mediate attitude toward advertising and other constructs when there was a religious advertisement that depicted religious cues, symbols, and visuals. Contrarily, a non-significant effect of irritation was identified on religio-spiritual insights when there was an irritating advertisement.

Abstract Purpose: This study aims to understand the mechanisms of property rights guarantee in the dairy agro-industrial system (DAGS) in Paraná, Brazil, and in the old Midi-Pyrénées region, France. Originality/value: From a complementary perspective of Transaction Cost Theory and Measurement Cost Theory, the proposal in the study is that the use of mechanisms to guarantee property rights through safeguards, parameters, measurement, agreements, or litigation contributes to the transaction of differentiated products and also to the protection of these rights, favoring systems improvement. Design/method/approach: A descriptive qualitative study was done, encompassing 25 semi-structured interviews with producers, processors, and key agents of the DAGS in the state of Paraná in Brazil and in the old Midi-Pyrénées region of France, in 2016 and 2017. Qualitative content analysis was performed with NVivo Pro software. Findings: It was identified that in France and in the central-eastern and western regions of Paraná, the use of complementary protection property rights mechanisms (safeguards, parameters, measurement, agreements, or litigation) allows higher quality milk transactions and reinvestments in production by agents, contributing to system improvement. In the northern region of Paraná, the limited use of property rights mechanisms (verbal agreement, measurement, unreliable information sharing, and the absence of ex post protection) allows minimal quality milk trans actions and restricts reinvestments in production, limiting systems improvement.

Originality/value: From a complementary perspective of Transaction Cost Theory and Measurement Cost Theory, the proposal in the study is that the use of mechanisms to guarantee property rights through safeguards, parameters, measurement, agreements, or litigation contributes to the transaction of differentiated products and also to the protection of these rights, favoring systems improvement. Design/method/approach: A descriptive qualitative study was done, encompassing 25 semi-structured interviews with producers, processors, and key agents of the DAGS in the state of Paraná in Brazil and in the old Midi-Pyrénées region of France, in 2016 and 2017.

Abstract Purpose: The study aims to analyze the relationship between profitability and conservative leverage of Brazilian companies. Originality/value: The study contributes to the literature by investigating profitability as a fundamental determinant of the conservative leverage of Brazilian companies, making it possible to understand whether this influence is based on a perspective of flexibility or financial constraint. Design/methodology/approach: The research is characterized as descriptive, archival, and quantitative. The study sample consisted of 271 public companies and 8,823 private companies. Data were collected in the Refinitiv Eikon database between 2012 and 2019 (eight years). For data analysis, the study used logistic regression in Stata software. Findings: The results indicate that, on average, 5.05% of public companies have zero leverage, and 29.08% of private companies have book leverage below 5%; in the context of public companies, the more profitable the company, the greater the probability of having almost zero leverage, corroborating the perspective of financial flexibility. Less profitable private companies are likelier to have zero leverage, which is consistent with the view of financial constraint.

Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this research is to analyze whether self-efficacy and entrepreneurial characteristics (e.g., risk-taking, planning, opportunity recognition, persistence, sociability, innovation, and leadership) differ in the explanation of entrepreneurial intention models, having entrepreneurial education as a moderator of relationships. Originality/value: This paper offers an in-depth perspective on which behavioral characteristics fit best into entrepreneurial intention models and helps to fill a theoretical and practical gap on the need for university education to increase its positive impact on human capital, particularly on students’ professional skills, demonstrating which characteristics are most impacted by entrepreneurial education. Design/methodology/approach: Quantitative methodology was employed, and data were analyzed with structural equation modeling. The sample consisted of 1,004 Brazilian university students from public and private universities. The research was conducted in a non-probabilistic way and with a convenience sample. In order to address the research hypothesis and objectives, all constructs were adapted from relevant literature on entrepreneurship. Findings: The results indicate it seems more appropriate to use a set of entrepreneurial characteristics when investigating an entrepreneurial intention model if you are looking for a higher explanatory factor and a more robust model; also, entrepreneurial characteristics represent a more sensitive model, which brings accurate assessments on factors that affect entrepreneurial intention. With these findings, entrepreneurial education can be planned to shape certain characteristics through actions in the university environment, making it possible to measure the impact of education on entrepreneurial intention.
