Most researchers who have employed the job demands-resources (JD-R) model to investigate factors influencing work engagement, omitted effects of personal characteristics. In this study, we discussed moderating proactive personality on influence social support and work-family conflict (WFC) engagement. Participants comprised 477 workers in several airports eastern China. The results showed that had a positive effect WFC negative These influences were moderated by individual. We also role JD-R model.

Purpose Drawing upon Folkman and Lazarus’ (1984) coping framework interdependence theory (Thibaut Kelley, 1959), the purpose of this paper is to investigate how expatriate spouses’ strategies (problem-focused emotion-focused) affect spouse adjustment adjustment. In addition, authors also examine mediating effect on strategies-spouse relationship. Design/methodology/approach To test these relationships, collected multi-source data from 191 spouses their partners living in 37 countries....

Abstract Integrating conservation of resource (COR) theory and the relational organizing, we conceptualize expatriate–host country national (HCN) knowledge transfer as gains between sender receiver. Based on a sample 107 expatriate–HCN dyads, found that when receiver, be it an expatriate or HCN, is high cultural intelligence (CQ), will more likely to perceive higher levels trust in receiver shared vision with These cognitive responses receiver's CQ are instrumental facilitating acquisition....

Purpose Integrating anxiety and uncertainty management (AUM) theory of organizing, this study aims to contribute the knowledge literature by examining interdependent bidirectional nature transfer between expatriates host country nationals (HCNs). Specifically, authors investigate how receivers’ cognitive response senders’ behaviors during their interactions becomes an important conduit successful knowledge. Design/methodology/approach The used actor partner interdependence model analyze data...

The study gives a summary of marketing analytics, its importance in modern companies, and the changing environment influenced by technological progress. It stresses need to keep abreast trends approaches improve organisational results. literature review explores important elements analytics such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, predictive personalization, consumer segmentation, growing significance augmented reality virtual reality. delves into how these technologies are...

Abstract Based on stakeholder theory, we examined whether perceptions and actual relationships between human resource (HR) line managers influence perceived future firm performance as rated by managers. With a matched sample of 105 HR working in Hong Kong, found that when an effective function, higher level involvement the strategic planning process was positively associated with performance. Moreover, effectiveness than The discrepancy negatively Furthermore, managers, contrast to...

Purpose Drawing on the whole-life perspective of career development and conservation resources theory, authors consider whether self-initiated expatriates' (SIEs’) cultural intelligence (CQ) is a general, cross-domain resource that helps SIEs gain in work nonwork domains. The contend CQ will be associated with greater levels organizational community embeddedness, which turn facilitate their satisfaction. also propose role perceived host country diversity climate as an environmental condition...

Purpose Drawing on the challenge–hindrance stressor framework and “too-much-of-a-good-thing” principle, this study examined curvilinear effects of two emic social challenge stressors (guanxi beliefs participative decision-making (PDM)) moderating effect an etic hindrance (perceived organizational politics) Hong Kong United States nurses’ job satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative survey method was implemented, with data provided by 355 nurses 116 nurses. Structural equation...

Using equity, stress and buffer theories, we investigate the role played by organizational inequities (organizational justice provision of benefits) assignment stressors (work adjustment novelty) in predicting expatriate pay satisfaction. We also assess perceived value as an important that moderates above relationships. With a sample 78 expatriates from nine nationalities working Hong Kong, find work are both positively related to strengthens benefits–pay satisfaction adjustment–pay...

Purpose The purpose of this study is to develop a conceptual model explicating the development expatriate social capital and its influence on effectiveness in terms knowledge transfer adjustment. Drawing upon theory weak tie theory, we elucidate process through which facilitates adjustment via greater access role information support. Design/methodology/approach This reviews distills research proposes suggests potential avenues for global mobility scholars. Findings contributes understanding...

Purpose Drawing on expectancy value theory (EVT), this paper examines knowledge exchange between expatriate and host country national (HCN) dyads to understand whether receivers' perceptions about senders' motivation transfer perceived of the jointly affect learn and, in turn, facilitate their acquisition sharing. Design/methodology/approach Latent moderated structural (LMS) equations were used analyze data from 107 expatriate–HCN working Asia Pacific region. Findings In general, senders are...

A new cost function, which is a modification of the function Castedo and Figugiras-Vidal for adaptive blind beamforming cyclostationary signals, proposed. The proposed enables well-known recursive least-squares technique to be applied. Simulations demonstrate that resulting algorithm has faster convergence speed than stochastic gradient-based Figugiras-Vidal.

Purpose We examined who is more likely to use flexible work arrangements (FWAs) alleviate work-family conflict (WFC) and under what conditions the of FWAs actually reduces WFC. Design/methodology/approach tested model using survey data collected at two time points from 217 employees. Findings Proactive employees are flextime WFC (b = −0.03; 95% biased-corrected CI: [−0.12, −0.01]) this mediation relationship not moderated by their level low work-to-nonwork boundary permeability. In addition,...
