The Impact

The impact of collaboration on innovation performance has been investigated in many studies. This study provides a unique view on innovation performance by exploring the mediating role of social performance between collaboration and innovation performance. For this, a structural model was tested through an empirical investigation with partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) using a sample made up of 239 export manufacturing firms. The results of the empirical study show that social performance appears to be a necessary condition for innovation performance. Our findings confirm the great potential of addressing social concern increasingly drive innovation performance. The next decade is likely to be a period of rapidly expanding social performance practices in the manufacturing firms. The managers could foster sustainable innovation by collaborating customers and enhance their firm social performance.

Introduction: Improvement of productivity is one of the most important aims of organizations. Employees and managers play a central role in enhancing the organization's productivity. Therefore, it is important to consider the effective factors on improving it. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of work conscience in the relationship between employees' spiritual intelligence and productivity. Method: The research design was cross-sectional and correlational. The participants included 248 employees of the Yazd Education Organization (8 managers, 60 deputies, and 180 employees) selected by proportional stratified sampling method. Data were collected using Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire (King, 2008), Work Conscience Questionnaire (Barrick & Mount, 1991), and Productivity Questionnaire (Hersey & Goldsmith, 1983). Data analysis was performed using correlation method based on the structural equation modeling approach using AMOS software version 24. Results: The analysis showed that the model has a suitable fit to data. The  direct effect of spiritual intelligence on work conscience (0.58) and the direct effect of work conscience on productivity (0.51) were positive and significant. However, the direct effect of spiritual intelligence on productivity was not significant; so, it was omitted from the model. Moreover, the result of bootstrap test indicated a significant and indirect effect of spiritual intelligence on productivity by mediating the role of work conscience. Conclusion: It can be concluded that managers of organizations can increase their working conscience by enhancing the spiritual intelligence of their employees and achieve more productivity.

Research Gap

This research intends to examine the effect of pricing bundling capability on price value offerings and marketing performance. It also tests the role of price value offerings as a mediating variable. Price building capacity develops from pricing capability to fill the research gap of its effect on marketing performance. Some studies prove that pricing capability affects performance. On the other hand, some found that it does not and recommend further research to improve this capability in line with the price strategy implemented by the company. Previous research on price strategy focuses on the consumers’ perspective. This study concentrates on the producers’ viewpoint. We collected data from 183 SME’s restaurants’ managers in Purwokerto using structured questionnaires. Structural Equation Model is used to obtain the aim of the research and analyze the measurement and structural model. The result suggests that pricing bundling capability positively affects pricing capacity on marketing performance and price value offerings. It also shows that price value offerings positively affect the marketing performance and that price value offerings mediate the effect of pricing capability on marketing performance. We suggest the SME’s restaurants’ managers pay attention to their pricing bundling capability to increase the price value offerings and marketing performance.

The Relationship

Background and Purpose: The role of collocation learning strategies is less of a concern as mediator. Although several correlation studies of bivariate factors have provided the relationship between the variables, many cannot answer the question of how the relationship exists. Also, a lot of studies have taken into account the variables of collocation learning strategies as mediator factors and have not illustrated clearly the relationship between independent variables (motivation) and dependent variables (collocation knowledge). As such, the aim of the present study is to identify the knowledge of Arabic collocation by taking several factors, namely; motivation and collocation learning strategies that have the potential to increase the knowledge of Arabic collocation in Malaysia.    Methodology: In this study, a cross-sectional design was applied. Simple random sampling was used, where a total of 344 final year Arabic language students from eight public universities in Malaysia took part in the study by completing a set of tests and questionnaires. The data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) technique.   Findings: The findings show there is a direct and indirect relationship between motivation variable, collocation learning strategies and collocation knowledge. In addition, the learning strategies factor also serves as a partial mediator.   Contributions: This study suggests that collocation learning strategies play a role in the relationship between motivation and collocation knowledge in the context of Arabic language at higher education level in Malaysia.   Keywords: Collocation learning strategies, motivation, collocation knowledge, Arabic language, public universities.   Cite as: Asbulah, L.

<p>The present research investigates the mediating role of resiliency in the relationship to life satisfaction and happiness. The study uses correlation and the research population consisted of 241 female students from the University of Tehran who were chosen with the simple random sampling method to answer the questionnaires. To measure the variables of the research, the scale of life satisfaction proposed by Diener et al. (1985), the resiliency of Conner and Davidson (2003), and Oxford happiness (1989) were utilized. The results which were attained using the method of structural equation modeling demonstrated that the exogenous variable of life satisfaction has a significant direct effect on happiness. In addition, according to the results, the relationship between life satisfaction and happiness is mediated by resiliency. In this pattern, all the regression weights were significant from a statistical perspective, and in general, the results show that life satisfaction affects happiness directly and via the mediation of resiliency.</p>

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of prestige sensitivity on mobile phone customer’s price acceptance in Vietnam and the mediating role of product knowledge and price mavenism on this relationship. We used the convenience sampling method for data collection via questionnaires with a sample of 605 consumers who purchased mobile phones. The collected data was analysed by applying a structural equation modelling method. The result indicates that prestige sensitivity has both direct and indirect effects on price acceptance via product knowledge and price mavenism. The findings suggest that prestige sensitivity can be used as a market segmentation criterion for mobile phones when making price decisions and providing customers with adequate information could improve price acceptance.
