Research Aims: The present research investigates the relationships among behavioural belief, attitude toward entrepreneurship, religiosity, and entrepreneurial intention in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach: We use a structural equation model supported by LISREL 8.80 to analyse a sample of 146 owners of micro and small enterprises. Research Findings: We found new results to add to the entrepreneurship literature regarding the relationship between religiosity and entrepreneurship. Although religiosity has been mostly discussed in previous research as a moderator, this study found that religiosity also has a strong direct relationship to entrepreneurial intention. Further, most of the independent variables also show a significant influence on entrepreneurial intention. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: Based on our result, this paper found that religiosity has a strong direct relationship to entrepreneurial intention. Our paper is also the first to aggregate behavioral beliefs through multiple religious points of view regarding entrepreneurial intention . Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context: The result can be applied to enhance entrepreneurship in South East Asian countries Research limitation & implications: The result has implications for entrepreneurship education, business practitioners, and policy makers to strengthen entrepreneurial intention. Furthermore, since affective attitude and instrumental attitude involve a reciprocal process over a long period, this study recommends that future research should apply longitudinal study.

Research Aims: Recently, the usage of branding has become more popular in non-traditional social markets such as politics due to decreasing political participation. This study investigates how political brand relationship quality (satisfaction and trust) influences political brand engagement (PBE) and voters' citizenship behaviour (VCB). Design/Methodology/Approach: The current study collected data from voters who are located in Jakarta and participated in the Indonesian presidential election of 2014. A total of 520 voters participated. Data were collected via quota sampling and drop-off survey and were analysed using structural equation modelling. Research Findings: The empirical findings suggest that satisfaction has the strongest impact on political party brand engagement, while trust has the strongest impact on voters' citizenship behaviour. Further results imply that political brand engagement contributes to voters' citizenship behaviour, as well as significantly mediates the relationship between political brand relationship quality (satisfaction and trust) and voters' citizenship behaviour. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study is based on social exchange theory and source credibility theory. The findings of this study have theoretical implications in that the results lend support to the appropriate role of brand relationship quality and brand engagement in creating voters' citizenship behaviour. Managerial Implication in the Southeast Asian Context: The findings of this study add new insights to the political branding literature as well as strategic guidelines for the political parties that are planning to build a relationship with voters. As a way to improve voters' perceptions in Southeast Asia, political parties should adapt conventional marketing theory to a political marketing setting, and implement marketing programmes that keenly engaged with voter's behaviour. Research Limitation and Implications: This study bears several limitations. First, the current study was conducted in the capital city of Indonesia, thus limiting the scope of the research. Second, this study was restricted to a political party. It would be interesting if future studies examine political candidates as a brand.

R esearch Aims: This study proposes to fill the gap in entreprenuership literature by focusing on the relationship between entrepreneurs' psychological capital and growth intention mediated by their work performance. Design/methodology/approach: This research used cross-sectional quantitative research and employed convenience sampling technique. A total of 275 Small and Medium Entreprise (SME) entrepreneurs participated and answered the survey questionnaires. Research Findings: The findings confirmed the direct relationships between psychological capital and work performance; and psychological capital and growth intention of entrepreneurs. However, this study found no mediating effect of work performance in the relationship between psychological capital and growth intention of the entreprenuers. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study enhanced the understanding on the importance of psychological capital as influential psychological resource for entrepreneurs as it has positive effects on attitudes and their work performance. These findings advocate the inclusion of psychological capital in entrepreneurial studies as important resource for work performance improvement and positive attitudes. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context : The government and SMEs supporting agencies need to give attention to psychological capital in their entrepreneurship development policy and programmes. Further, universities and training providers should also focus on psychological capital resources in entrepreneurial education and training modules. Research limitation & implications: This study is confined to Malaysian SME entrepreneurs only and uses convenient sampling technique. Therefore, generalization of the findings is limited. Future research can investigate the related variables in different countries and contexts to examine the importance of psychological capital in entrepreneurial setting.

Research Aims: The process of innovation is complex and involved various stage which required employees to have an innovative behaviour. Underpinned by social exchange theory, this study examines how employee participation in Lean Thinking influence the employees' innovative behaviour. We also examine the possibility that competency moderates this relationship . Design/methodology/approach: Measurements from previous studies were adapted in developing the questionnaire and data were analysed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. Research Findings: The results showed that there is a positive relationship between employee participation in Lean Thinking and employee innovative behaviour, and a positive relationship between employee competency and employee innovative behaviour. However, employee competency does not moderate the relationship between employee participation in Lean Thinking and employee innovative behaviour. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This study enhanced the social exchange theory by proving that employees are motivated to perform more than their duties and results into innovative behaviour when they are encouraging to participate in Lean Thinking. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context: Managers should keep encouraging employee to participate in Lean Thinking and give empowerment for decision making which could engender employee innovative behaviour. Research limitation & implications: The main limitation is the insignificant moderating effect of employee competency. Therefore, we recommend that researchers use psychological variables such as psychological empowerment and psychological ownership.

Between 74 and 85% of health documentation in advanced countries is conducted by internet, and 80% of customers use those data to seek information related to health service. The research reported in the present paper is aimed at finding out the influence of leadership style of head of ward, electronic documenting, and nurse performance on service innovation in Meuraxa Hospital in 2017. This study is a cross-sectional; survey of 100 nurses at Meuraxa Hospital who were doing electronic documentation. Structural equation modelling (SEM) showed that the respondents' perception of the leadership style of the head of the ward is agree and strongly agree where the average is 4.22. The respondents' perception on the use of electronic documentation is agree and strongly agree where the average index is 4.20; and most of respondents' perception on the innovation on nursing service is agree and strongly agree where the average index is 4.23. All the indices are in the cutoff value range. The result of this study shows a positive correlation: there is an influence of head of ward leadership style on the performance of nurse; the electronic documentation has an effect on the performance of the nurses; the performance of nurses has an effect on the innovation of nursing service; The leadership style of head of ward affects the innovation of nursing service. the electronic documentation can influence the improvement of nursing service innovation. There is an indirect influence of head of ward leadership style, electronic documentation, nurse perfomance on nursing on service innovation through nurse performance. The alternative hypotheses are accepted and fit model test is good. It is hoped that all head of wards and nurses can improve their service by doing documentation comprehensively.

This research analyses the influence of both individual and leadership characteristics on research productivity, mediated by institutional characteristics, of the lecturers in the Faculty of Economics and the Faculty of Languages and Arts at the University of X in Jakarta. We distributed a questionnaire with closed questions to 100 lecturers who are not department heads and hold master's degrees or higher. We then performed a quantitative analysis of mediation using SPSS software. The results indicate that the effect of individual characteristics on research productivity is partially mediated by institutional characteristics, and that the effect of leadership characteristics on research productivity is fully mediated by institutional characteristics.

Organisational politics affect almost every employee to some degree, becoming an inevitable and significant part of the entire organisation. Employees who feel victimised by office politics generally develop negative behaviours towards work and the entire organisation, affecting their performances . Differences in personality dimensions cause employees to demonstrate various responses to similar situations. This study assesses whether the perception of organisational politics affects the work and job engagement level of employees, and whether different personality dimensions moderate this relationship. Quantitative research was conducted on employees at the middle or upper level of management, working in different organisations that manufacture products in India. To collect the data, 450 structured questionnaires were distributed; 388 completed questionnaires were received and utilised for the analysis. The study concludes that a perception of organisational politics does exist among employees working in different organisations, and it has a negative relationship with both work and Organisational Engagement. Particular personality traits affect levels of engagement and act as moderators. If management wants to engage their employees more within the job and organisation, it must control the politics that create a negative perception of the organisation among employees.

This research aims to investigate why there is low insurance purchasing in Indonesia. The research framework adopts the theory of planned behaviour in exploring the insurance purchase intention behaviour of Indonesians. Furthermore, this research introduces health value as the moderating variable on the relationship between attitude towards insurance purchasing and the intention to purchase insurance. We take 311 insurance holders from five Indonesian big cities as the sample. The results show that perceived risk and perceived usefulness play important roles in the attitude towards the intention to purchase health insurance. Our findings also show that health value contributes significantly in explaining health insurance purchasing. This research contributes to the body of knowledge by introducing the theory of planned behaviour in health insurance research. Moreover, this research suggests to policymakers or insurance companies how to gauge psychological factors in terms of influencing people to purchase health insurance.

This research aims at studying an elderly employment model for the Thai automotive industry. Mixed methods with a sequential exploratory strategy were utilized. Grounded theory was employed by using in-depth interviews to investigate the characteristics of elderly employment in the Thai automotive industry. For this stage of the research, theoretical and purposive sampling was used to select 32 key informants from four groups of stakeholders: (1) elderly workers, (2) employers or human resource managers, (3) government officers, and (4) academics. The findings were then validated using a quantitative approach with structural equation modelling (SEM). A total of 308 elderly workers and human resource managers were surveyed regarding their opinion about elderly employment. Based on the survey, the elderly employment model in the Thai automotive industry, which is comprised of the approach to elderly employment, elderly employment preparation, and key success factors for elderly employment, was revealed to be a good fit.
