Despite of increasing interest in social cognitive research in strategic management during recent years, few studies have examined the relationship between cognitive structures of top management and middle management. This study represents the information processing approach in managerial cognition research assuming that top management communicate their shared cognitions into the organization reducing ambiguity of operative environment faced by the other levels of organization shaping the operations of the organizations. The authors' empirical study examines managerial cognitive maps collected with a cognitive mapping method in a transportation company. In the study, top managers and middle managers separately evaluated sustainability management issues and their relevance for the company providing 75 individual cognitive maps. Based on this, the authors' study aims to fill the gap in research of relationship between top management and middle management cognitive structures and increase understanding on role of managerial cognition in strategic management research.
尽管近年来对战略管理的社会认知研究越来越感兴趣,但很少有研究考察高层管理人员和中层管理人员认知结构之间的关系。本研究代表了管理认知研究中的信息处理方法,假设最高管理者将他们的共同认知传达到组织中,减少组织其他层面所面临的影响组织运作的运营环境的模糊性。本文以某运输公司为研究对象,对运用认知地图法收集的管理认知地图进行了实证研究。在研究中,高层管理人员和中层管理人员分别评估可持续管理问题及其与公司的相关性,提供75个个人认知地图。基于此,笔者的研究旨在填补高层管理人员和中层管理人员认知结构关系研究的空白,增加对管理认知在战略管理研究中的作用的认识。

This paper aims to explore the goals and motives of electronic government utilization among the citizens, the motives of their preference as well as the extent of use of these smart applications in the UAE. Also, it investigates the basic element of Smart Government uses within the federal authorities, response times, and recommendations for improving smart government. This study answers the following questions: What is the purpose of creating smart government? What are the users' aims in using smart government and what level of satisfaction do they experience? To augment this research, 450 questionnaires were distributed among federal authorities' users in all 7 emirates in the UAE. In addition, 18 interviews were conducted with managers in the federal government. The users reported high levels of satisfaction using smart government technologies, indicating a high level of usage and trust. The results also show that higher service speed contributes to higher levels of satisfaction. Managers are very optimistic about Smart Government, but some challenges remain, such as the existence of a lack of information or guidelines for using smart government. There is currently no central government department for applying smart government, and no clear vision or philosophies regarding smart government.
本文旨在探讨公民使用电子政务的目标和动机,他们偏好的动机以及这些智能应用程序在阿联酋的使用程度。此外,它还调查了联邦当局使用智能政府的基本要素、响应时间以及改进智能政府的建议。本研究回答了以下问题:创建智能政府的目的是什么?用户使用智能政府的目的是什么?他们的满意度如何?为了扩大这项研究,在阿联酋所有7个酋长国的联邦当局用户中分发了450份问卷。此外,还对联邦政府的管理人员进行了18次访谈。用户报告了对智能政府技术的高满意度,表明了高水平的使用和信任。结果还表明,服务速度越快,满意度越高。管理人员对智能政府非常乐观,但仍然存在一些挑战,例如缺乏使用智能政府的信息或指导方针。目前没有一个中央政府部门负责智能政府的应用,也没有一个清晰的智能政府愿景和理念。

Business incubation programme has been adopted by numerous countries globally. Its adoption has been related to its performance and actual contribution to entrepreneurship development. Studies have acknowledged the role of incubation programme to different spheres of national economy. In spite of the positive side of incubator model, there is still a contradiction concerning incubation performance in the developing countries, especially, Nigeria. This study aims to examine the contribution of government policy on the relationship between the critical success factors (CSFs) and incubator performance in Nigeria. Questionnaires were distributed to a sample size of 153 respondents from a population of 253 incubatees. The Partial Least Squares (PLS) software was used to analyze the data. Government policy as a moderator did not show a significant moderation relationship between the CSFs and incubator performance. The study recommends that future studies should integrate this quantitative approach of data collection with the qualitative method. Also, as the value of the coefficient of determination is 46%, future research should look at other factors which may likely increase the variation in performance explained by (or accounted for by) the variation in the CSFs.
全球许多国家都采用了企业孵化方案。它的采用与它的业绩和对企业精神发展的实际贡献有关。研究已确认孵化方案对国民经济不同领域的作用。尽管孵化器模式有积极的一面,但在发展中国家,特别是尼日利亚,孵化绩效仍然存在矛盾。本研究旨在考察尼日利亚政府政策对关键成功因素(CSFs)与孵化器绩效之间关系的贡献。从253个孵化器中向153名受访者分发了调查问卷。采用偏最小二乘(PLS)软件对数据进行分析。政府政策作为一个调节因素,在基金和孵化器绩效之间没有显示出显著的调节关系。该研究建议,未来的研究应将这种定量的数据收集方法与定性的方法结合起来。此外,由于决定系数的值为46%,未来的研究应该着眼于其他因素,这些因素可能会增加由csf变化解释(或解释)的性能变化。

This study aimed at investigating the influence of students' characteristics majors, maturity, and gender on mobile device security practices in the context of a developing country. Focusing on graduate and undergraduate students from both public and private universities, participants' characteristics were measured against three approaches of mobile devices security practices user-behavior and activities, device settings, and disaster recovery. The sample consisted of 375 students from two public universities and three private university colleges. The results found that Technology and Engineering students differ statistically from Business and Arts students in terms of mobile device settings and disaster recovery practices. The undergraduate students were less engaged in risky activities with their devices compared with the graduate students. Moreover, the younger students were more cautious than the older students regarding user-behavior and device settings. Finally, female students were more negligent when it comes to setting the devices to militate against security threats.
本研究旨在调查在一个发展中国家背景下,学生的特点、专业、成熟度和性别对移动设备安全实践的影响。以来自公立和私立大学的研究生和本科生为研究对象,通过移动设备安全实践、用户行为和活动、设备设置和灾难恢复三种方法来衡量参与者的特征。样本包括来自两所公立大学和三所私立大学学院的375名学生。结果发现,在移动设备设置和灾难恢复实践方面,技术和工程专业的学生与商业和艺术专业的学生在统计上存在差异。与研究生相比,本科生较少使用电子设备从事危险活动。此外,在用户行为和设备设置方面,年龄较小的学生比年龄较大的学生更谨慎。最后,女学生在设置设备防范安全威胁方面更为疏忽。

Balancing the Old with the New: Creating a Typology for Explicit-Implicit CSRS Interaction 平衡新旧:为显式-隐式CSRS交互创建一种类型
Pub Date : 2016-07-01 DOI: 10.4018/IJISSC.2016070103
Richard Peters, Cary Caro, Peggy Golden
In this article the authors articulate four separate models that consider the inter-relationships between Explicit and Implicit Corporate Social Responsibility. These models suggest that the transition from a traditional and 'quiet' social responsibility approach to a strategic and more expressive communication is design is variable and influenced by both institutional and firm level factors. At the institutional level, market liberalization, social legacy, localization forces and cultural legitimacy may all help predict where firms exist along the Explicit-Implicit continuum. Organizationally, strategy, social significance, market size and space, and self-determinism to moderate the extent to which firm adopts or resists Explicit CSRS. By considering these models and their related factors individually, the authors present a rich framework to educate future research in social responsibility and social change.
在本文中,作者阐述了四个独立的模型,考虑了显性和隐性企业社会责任之间的相互关系。这些模型表明,从传统的、“安静的”社会责任方法到战略性的、更具表现力的沟通设计的转变是可变的,并受到制度和企业层面因素的影响。在制度层面,市场自由化、社会遗产、本土化力量和文化合法性都有助于预测企业在显性-隐性连续体中的位置。组织、战略、社会意义、市场规模和空间以及自我决定论调节企业采用或抵制显性社会责任的程度。通过对这些模型及其相关因素的单独考虑,作者提出了一个丰富的框架,以指导未来社会责任与社会变革的研究。

Today's youths are yesterday's future generation and tomorrow's guardian of future generations. Successful water governance requires the sustainable management of water resources which in turn implies the maximisation of economic, social and environmental goals. This research, whilst focusing on the social traits of the current youth cohort, forms the basis of a wider national survey amongst Maltese society in order to identify their economic, social and environmental traits as one of the basis for developing a robust water governance framework for Malta. The research shows that whilst there is a solid foundation in the current youth crop to build upon for effective water governance, there is still considerable work that needs to be undertaken in order to raise awareness amongst a sizeable component of the current youth cohort.
今天的青年是昨天的未来一代,明天的未来一代的守护者。成功的水治理需要水资源的可持续管理,这反过来意味着经济、社会和环境目标的最大化。这项研究虽然侧重于当前青年群体的社会特征,但它构成了在马耳他社会中进行更广泛的全国调查的基础,以确定其经济、社会和环境特征,作为为马耳他制定强有力的水治理框架的基础之一。研究表明,虽然目前的青年群体为有效的水资源治理奠定了坚实的基础,但要提高当前青年群体中相当大一部分人的认识,仍有大量工作要做。

The authors investigate how job-related beliefs, professors, and families influence major decidedness for undergraduate business students. When students are decided about their major, they can focus on studies, have clearer direction, and reduce the time and number of classes necessary to complete their degree. By understanding how business students decide their academic major, universities can better direct recruitment, guidance, and retention resources. Using survey data from 410 undergraduates, the authors link job-related beliefs to major decidedness and show when students are optimistic about career potential, job structure, and the people orientedness of the profession associated with their major they will be more decided about their major. The findings also confirm the effects of professors and families on academic major decidedness. The results offered herein represent a call to action suggesting professors should spend time with undecided students, so they can better coach the students as they decide their major. Additionally, business schools should direct resources to educate family members, so they can help students decide their major. Lastly, when examining differences between first-generation and non-first generation students, the authors found professors and family members were more influential to the first-generation population. Hence, first-generation students are more receptive to guidance about their academic major.
作者调查了与工作相关的信念、教授和家庭如何影响本科商科学生的专业决定。当学生决定了他们的专业,他们可以专注于学习,有更明确的方向,并减少完成学位所需的时间和课程数量。通过了解商科学生如何选择他们的专业,大学可以更好地直接招聘、指导和保留资源。通过对410名本科生的调查数据,作者将与工作相关的信念与专业选择联系起来,并表明当学生对职业潜力、工作结构以及与专业相关的专业的以人为本持乐观态度时,他们会更坚定地选择自己的专业。研究结果还证实了教授和家庭对专业选择的影响。这里提供的结果代表了一种行动呼吁,建议教授应该花时间与犹豫不决的学生在一起,这样他们就可以在学生选择专业时更好地指导他们。此外,商学院应该将资源用于教育家庭成员,这样他们就可以帮助学生选择专业。最后,当研究第一代和非第一代学生之间的差异时,作者发现教授和家庭成员对第一代人口的影响更大。因此,第一代学生更容易接受有关其学术专业的指导。

Predicting corporate bankruptcy has been an important challenging problem in research topic in accounting and finance. In bankruptcy prediction, researchers often confront a range of observations and variables which are often vast amount of financial ratios. By reducing variables and select relevant data from a given dataset, data reduction process can optimize bankruptcy prediction. This study addresses four well-known data reduction methods including t-test, correlation analysis, principal component analysis (PCA) and factor analysis (FA) and evaluated them in bankruptcy prediction in the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). To this end, considering 35 financial ratios, the results of data reduction methods were separately used to train Support Vector Machine (SVM) as the powerful prediction model. Regarding the empirical results, among the aforementioned methods, the t-test lead to the most prediction rate with 97.1% of predictability and PCA by 95.1% provides the next position.
企业破产预测一直是会计与金融领域的一个重要研究课题。在破产预测中,研究人员经常面临一系列的观察结果和变量,这些变量通常是大量的财务比率。数据约简过程通过对变量进行约简,从给定数据集中选取相关数据,对破产预测进行优化。本文探讨了t检验、相关分析、主成分分析(PCA)和因子分析(FA)四种著名的数据约简方法,并对它们在德黑兰证券交易所(TSE)破产预测中的应用进行了评价。为此,考虑35个财务比率,分别使用数据约简方法的结果训练支持向量机(SVM)作为强大的预测模型。从实证结果来看,在上述方法中,t检验的预测率最高,可预测性为97.1%,其次是主成分分析法,可预测性为95.1%。

This study addresses four well-known data reduction methods including t-test, correlation analysis, principal component analysis (PCA) and factor analysis (FA) and evaluated them in bankruptcy prediction in the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). To this end, considering 35 financial ratios, the results of data reduction methods were separately used to train Support Vector Machine (SVM) as the powerful prediction model. Regarding the empirical results, among the aforementioned methods, the t-test lead to the most prediction rate with 97.1% of predictability and PCA by 95.1% provides the next position.","PeriodicalId":371573,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Socio-technical forecasts that materialized are of particular interest, as they are based on basic principles that must hold true for a long time, and thus worthy of special attention. The exploitation of the Internet as a vehicle for psychological and physical battle has been anticipated ever since the Internet became a world-wide phenomenon. Its potential for abuse by terrorist groups motivated Valeri & Knights to compile a list of key predictions, without the benefit of the hindsight afforded by the post-millennial terrorist attacks on the USA & Europe, and before social media was conceived. This paper evaluates some of their predictions in light of the massive social media and network attacks that occurred in Israel and Syria. Additionally, the paper examines how attacked governments and nations respond. The authors find that some of the key predictions advanced by Valeri and Knights have proven accurate. Offensive information warfare attacks have and will continue to influence policies, budgets and civic voluntary participation to counter such attacks.
实现的社会技术预测特别令人感兴趣,因为它们基于必须长期适用的基本原则,因此值得特别注意。自从互联网成为一种世界性的现象以来,人们就预料到利用互联网作为心理和物理战争的工具。它被恐怖组织滥用的可能性促使Valeri & Knights编制了一份关键预测清单,而没有考虑到千禧年后美国和欧洲遭受恐怖袭击的后见之明,也没有考虑到社交媒体的概念。本文根据发生在以色列和叙利亚的大规模社交媒体和网络攻击来评估他们的一些预测。此外,本文还研究了受到攻击的政府和国家如何应对。作者发现,瓦莱里和奈特提出的一些关键预测被证明是准确的。进攻性信息战攻击已经并将继续影响打击此类攻击的政策、预算和公民自愿参与。
