Purpose Indirect or mediated effects constitute a type of relationship between constructs that often occurs in partial least squares (PLS) path modeling. Over the past few years, methods for testing mediation have become more sophisticated. However, many researchers continue to use outdated test mediating PLS, which can lead erroneous results. One reason even lack their altogether is no systematic tutorials on PLS exist draw newest statistical findings. The paper aims discuss these issues....

Purpose Structural equation modelling (SEM) has been defined as the combination of latent variables and structural relationships. The partial least squares SEM (PLS-SEM) is used to estimate complex cause-effect relationship models with most salient research methods across a variety disciplines, including knowledge management (KM). Following path initiated by different domains in business research, this paper aims examine how PLS-SEM applied KM also providing some new guidelines improve...

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between absorptive capacity and company innovativeness identify potential contexts capabilities that can act as catalysts for these relationships. We also existence enhancement innovativeness. These relationships are examined through an empirical investigation 286 large Spanish companies. Our results show important dynamic determinant developing a company's Moreover, best explained by two related constructs. First, unlearning context...

The topic of green innovation (GI) has increasingly attained organizational relevance due to its contribution the satisfaction environmental needs while concurrently enabling companies differentiate themselves from their competitors, and hence attain sustainable competitive advantages. In this context, we conducted a detailed analysis 618 papers on Web Science (WoS) database for 1971–2015 period. This paper develops bibliometric with aim assessing key in field identifying most substantive...

Purpose Expanded awareness and application of recent PLS-SEM reporting practices were again called for by Hair (2022) in his PLS 2022 Keynote Address. This paper aims to analyze extend the Industrial Management Data Systems (IMDS) focus on trends emerging more 2016–2022 period. Design/methodology/approach A review applications information systems studies published IMDS MISQ period 2012–2022 identifies comments a total 135 articles. Selected advanced analytical are also highlighted expand...

Nowadays, companies need to absorb new knowledge from external sources grasp environmental issues. However, the internal mechanisms through which is turned into green innovations remain scarcely addressed. Hence, this paper aims investigate relationships between two dimensions of absorptive capacity (potential and realized) with products process innovation performance. This study contributes literature by disentangling how acquire, assimilate, transform exploit develop innovations. To aim,...

Conditional mediation (CoMe) analysis integrates and moderation analyses to examine test hypotheses about how mediated relationships vary as a function of context, boundaries, or individual differences. Although CoMe can be crucial element empirical studies that seek advance theory in information systems, applications such are scarce, general, partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), particular. This paper clarifies conceptual fundamentals develops guidelines for within...

The purpose of this paper is to improve understanding Tourism Innovation by using a Uses and Gratification Theory model investigate tourist intention visit city after reading other users' valuations the destination on Mobile Applications. (U&G) was adapted factors which influence city. Satisfaction Experience were added as external variables U&G model. original Convenience construct for mobile tourism applications changed study. A survey carried out City. 261 users with different...

Purpose There is no empirical evidence, particularly in relation to small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs), support the concept of cultural barriers how they relate open‐mindedness (OM). Some these can be linked outdated knowledge, which impede adoption new configurations. The purpose this paper therefore test role relationship between OM organizational innovation. Design/methodology/approach These relationships are examined through an investigation 133 SMEs. Findings results show that...

The demand for e-learning in higher education is rising, competition increasing, and universities are investing significant resources towards improving the quality of their offerings. Thus, effective measures urgently required. With aim following total management practices raising students' satisfaction continuous improvement, a performance-evaluation model was applied sample business students. application this useful selecting items that most require improvement to achieve student...

Knowledge has become the main competitive tool for firms. Just as knowledge is considered most important strategic resource, management (KM) to be critical a firm's success. Several attempts have been undertaken identify and define different KM processes. From literature review, four key dimensions stand out affecting processes: creation, transfer, storage/retrieval, application. The aim of this paper contribute value by determining importance processes increasing creation capture in context...
