The current service trend does not merely involve face-to-face interactions, including smiling (high-contact-service) by service employees, but also using methods such as texting (low-contact service). Sincere and insincere smile studies have used a method involving dynamic (videos) and static stimuli (photographs). However, research into the different types of smiles is still limited to methods using a vignette. This study aims to examine the effect of the type of smile on customer satisfaction using a vignette and video. A total of 139 people participated in 2 (smile: sincere versus insincere) x 2 (media: vignette versus video) groups. The study found that there is an influence from the type of smile on customer satisfaction. A sincere smile using video produces greater customer satisfaction than using a vignette does, because the emotional contagion process through video is more real than it is through a vignette. The interesting finding from this study is that there is a gap in the insincere smile condition between using video and a vignette. The dissatisfaction of customers is greater when served with an insincere smile by text (vignette), compared with a face-to-face interaction by video. Video could only capture the muscle movement on a person’s cheeks (zygomaticus major), but it could not see the muscle wrinkles formed around the eyes (orbicularis oculi), compared to a vignette. This study implies that although the standard operational procedure (SOP) for service demands friendliness, a customer can feel whether a server’s smile is genuine or fake. The customer’s dissatisfaction toward an insincere smile will be higher with a low-contact service using text than a high-contact service with video.

This study’s aim is to conduct an empirical investigation of the impact of supply chain practices on firm performance. The prime objective of the paper is to study the impact of information-sharing practices and inventory management on firm performance. To realize the specified objective of the study, data were gathered from 170 individuals who are familiar with the supply chain practices of the companies and analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The result shows a significant direct and indirect effect of information sharing and inventory management practices on firm performance. Generally, the results show that higher information-sharing practices and better inventory management practices lead to greater firm performance; and higher information-sharing leads to improved inventory management, which in turn leads to greater firm performance. Theoretically, the result provides evidence of the effects of information sharing and inventory management on the supply chain practices’ performance in a firm. The managerial implications of the results are enhancing information sharing and inventory management practices by adopting, internalizing, and building information technology into all the business operations to enhance information sharing and inventory management practices to enhance firm performance.

This study examines the relations between the CEO type (owner CEO vs. professional CEO) and earnings management over 9,266 firm-years from 2011 to 2020 in Korea. Two earnings management measures, accrual management and real activity management (abnormal cash flow from operations, abnormal production cost, and abnormal discretionary expense), are considered as means to avoid reporting losses or earnings decreases. We partition the sample into two groups based on the type of CEO (owner CEO vs. professional CEO) and investigate whether earnings management is used for achieving earnings targets (small profit or small earnings increases) for each group. We find all earnings management measures are significant at the 5% level or better in the direction of aggressive earnings management in the owner CEO sample, while all but one measure (abnormal production cost) are insignificant in the professional CEO sample. Our findings suggest that an owner CEO is more likely to manage earnings to achieve small profit or small earnings increases compared to a professional CEO.

Entrepreneurship is a personality attribute that enables a person to discover resources passionately through a combination of new strategies to generate significant market value. Therefore, this research aims to examine the importance of the intellectual agility-resonance of businesses in all industrial sectors in Indonesia. Quantitative data were collected from 303 small and medium-sized micro-enterprises and analyzed using SEM-PLS line analysis. The result showed that the intellectual agility-resonance of entrepreneurial creativity increases satisfaction. Furthermore, empirical research on aspects like psychological well-being, financial optimism, job risks, and outcomes show what can be achieved through intellectual agility-resonance. Theoretically, entrepreneurial creativity is an intellectuality that comes from the dimension of the source of competitive excellence.

This study tests three behavioral biases: the gambler’s fallacy, the halo effect, and the familiarity effect. The novelty is the behavioral bias in bullish and bearish markets, based on different investors’ risk profiles. The questionnaire used a Likert scale. This study argues that bullish and bearish markets, and different risk profiles, affect investors’ behavioral bias. The gambler’s fallacy occurs when markets are bullish and partially when markets are bearish. The halo effect without risk profile does not occur in either market, and the familiarity effect occurs in both markets. Investors with a very conservative risk profile will experience behavioral bias, especially the gambler’s fallacy and the familiarity effect, with bullish and bearish markets. Investors with a conservative risk profile will partially experience the halo effect in bullish markets.

P2P lending offers loans to the public with easy processes and terms. However, the level of P2P lending disbursements is still lower than that of the banks. In addition, a comparison of the number of users of P2P lenders and the productive age population of Indonesia shows that there are still many people who do not use P2P lending. This paper examines the factors that make Indonesians avoid P2P lending. This study used an online survey approach for its data collection and structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the data from 499 responses. The study found that the perceived threat from P2P lending is influenced by its perceived severity, perceived susceptibility, and risk tolerance. This perceived threat and social influences cause people’s avoidance motivation. This study contributes to the fintech literature by providing empirical evidence on the avoidance of P2P lending from the borrowers’ perspectives using the TTAT model. Other implications are an input for regulators/governments to enforce the rules for user protection and input for the P2P lending service providers to provide educational programs regarding the use of P2P lending.

This study analyzes the influence of entrepreneurial attitudes and individual attributes on entrepreneurial activity in two ASEAN member countries: Vietnam and Thailand. By applying the multinomial logistics regression (MLR) analysis method, the results show that those with an entrepreneurial network, who can read business opportunities, and have skills and knowledge, have a positive and significant influence when deciding to start and invest in others’ new businesses. On the other hand, females and those with a secondary education were more likely to engage in entrepreneurial activities. The study also shows that Vietnam’s entrepreneurial attitudes and individual characteristics seem to be better, differentiating it from Thailand. The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) data from 2017 were the most recent data available at the time of this study. However, the availability of more up-to-date data is considered necessary to enrich and expand the impact of future research.

This study investigates the theoretical link between heuristic behavioral factors and the investment decision-making of women entrepreneurs, focusing on the importance of financial literacy as a potential mediator shaping prudent decision-making. We argue that women’s financial literacy is an efficient way to apply behavioral considerations in wise decision making. Using the proportionate stratified sampling method, we collected data from women entrepreneurs who were formally registered in Punjab Province, Pakistan. Owing to the complex model and small sample size, the smart PLS method was applied to analyze the structural relationship between the measured and latent constructs. The results show that overconfidence and availability heuristics have a significant positive impact on investment decisions, while financial literacy plays an essential intervening role between the overconfidence heuristic, availability heuristic, and investment decision-making. Our results support the execution of financial literacy awareness among women entrepreneurs to stimulate their financial decision control and give them the independence to make prudent financial decisions.

This study aims to examine the role of the double mediation of cognition-based trust and affect-based trust, along with the quality of the exchanges (perceived organizational support/POS and leader-member exchange/LMX), on the influence of organizational justice on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The survey involved 182 contract lecturers from the five top Muhammadiyah universities in Indonesia. Using structural equation models, this study has succeeded in demonstrating that the quality of the individual exchanges between supervisors and subordinates (LMX and affective-based trust) successfully mediate the sources of justice from the supervisors (interactional and informational justice). The quality of the individual exchanges with organizations (cognitive-based trust and POS) successfully mediate the sources of the organization (procedural justice). Implications for the theory and practice are discussed.

Despite various studies into the relationship between performance and the export market orientation, researchers still argue that the current findings remain mixed and inconclusive. In this study, the authors use meta-analytic techniques to examine the relationship between the export market orientation and performance, and the impact of firm-level, industry-level and country-level moderators using a total sample of 10,758 firms in 51 manuscripts from 19 countries. In particular, this study focuses on the nature of incongruent findings across studies conducted in different contexts around the globe. The results reveal that market orientation has a positive overall relationship with exporters’ revenue-based and profit-based performance. Moreover, the moderated regression analysis results indicate that the type of construct (general versus export-specific) and firm size moderate the relationship between the export market orientation and performance. The results also reveal that market turbulence, competitive intensity, and technological turbulence are significant industry-level moderators of the relationship between the market orientation and performance. This study contributes to the body of knowledge by aggregating the empirical evidence from the past literature and providing conclusive results that are beneficial for practitioners and researchers.
