How do value co-creation and e-engagement enhance e-commerce consumers’ repurchase intention?

This study develops an integrated model to investigate how value co-creation, driven by positively-valanced e-engagement, enhances repurchase intention among e-commence consumers. Applying the tenets of UTAUT, this study also examines the moderating role of technology adoption in the association between e-engagement and value co-creation in the e-commerce context. Data were collected via 411 surveys completed by e-commerce consumers in India. Data analysis was done using PLS structural equation modelling. Results show that value co-creation, driven by positively-valanced e-engagement, enhances repurchase intention among e-commerce consumers, while, technology adoption moderates the association between positively-valanced e-engagement and value co-creation. The findings also reveal that consumption values, such as utilitarian and hedonic values, mediate the effects of value co-creation on repurchase intention among e-commerce consumers.

Exploring the effects of positive organizational behaviour (POB) models on occupational eustress amongst construction employees

The general perspective of organizational behaviour (OB) has been characterized more by negativity than positively. The introduction of a positive approach into OB is known as positive organizational behaviour (POB), which focuses on employees' positive emotions and strengths to enable them to thrive and reinforce the organization. The study assesses the effects of POB constructs on eustress amongst construction employees in Nigeria. Data were collected from 326 respondents practising in the construction firms using a quantitative survey and analyzed using both descriptive and inferential surveys, including structural equation modelling (SEM). The study identified five constructs of POB models and five parameters of eustress that have a significant influenceon eustress. The study focuses on identifying the areas that can propel positive mental health among construction employees to improve their performances and increase work productivity. Therefore, it recommends that construction stakeholders should consider adopting company policies that can drive their implementations.

PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT OF BLUD PUSKESMAS EMPLOYEES BASED ON THE RELIANCE ON MULTIPLE PERFORMANCE MEASURE THROUGH LEVERS OF CONTROL

Penelitian ini menguji pengaruh ketergantungan berbagai ukuran kinerja (finansial dan non-keuangan) terhadap kinerja pegawai Badan Layanan Umum Daerah (BLUD) Pusat Kesehatan Masyarakat (Puskesmas) atau Badan Layanan Umum Daerah Puskesmas Tanjung Jabung Barat dan Kabupaten Batanghari. Studi ini juga menganalisis dampak hubungan yang dimediasi oleh Levers of Control (sistem kontrol diagnostik dan sistem kontrol interaktif). Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah pegawai BLUD Puskesmas Tanjung Jabung Barat dan BLUD Puskesmas Batanghari yang diambil sebagai sampel sebanyak 81 responden. Penelitian ini menggunakan structural equation modelling (SEM-PLS) dengan software WarpPLS versi 7.0. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa Levers of Control memediasi hubungan antara ketergantungan pada beberapa ukuran kinerja pada kinerja. Namun, studi ini gagal menunjukkan bahwa kinerja BLUD Puskesmas dipengaruhi oleh ketergantungan pada berbagai ukuran kinerja. Studi ini memberikan kontribusi penting bagi BLUD Puskesmas bukan hanya di Kabupaten Tanjung Jabung Barat dan Batanghari akan tetapi juga BLUD Puskesmas di Indonesia berupa penggunaan levers of control sebagai variabel mediasi hubungan antara ketergantungan pada beberapa ukuran kinerja pada kinerja pegawai BLUD Puskesmas.

The role of e-purchasing in government procurement fraud reduction through expanding market access

This study aims to analyze the effect of e-purchasing implementation on the reduction of fraud in government procurements in Indonesia. This study also analyzes the role of market access in mediating the effect of e-purchasing implementation on government procurement fraud. The study was conducted in all Procurement Service Units (ULP) of cities and districts in Indonesia. The questionnaires were sent electronically to 520 ULPs, but only 120 respondents could be used in this study. In analyzing data, the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used with the support of the program Partial Least Square (WarpPLS 7.0) to examine the relationship between variables studied. The results show that the implementation of e-purchasing directly reduces the level of fraud in government procurements in Indonesia. Other findings of the study also indicate that the implementation of e-purchasing expands market access. The rise of market access in implementing e-purchasing will affect the level of frauds relating to procurement practices in the Indonesian government.
