While big data analytics can spur innovation among firms, it is unclear whether it can effectively drive value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture to deal with disruptions and the ever-changing demands of customers. This study therefore aims to examine how value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture can be improved through big data analytics capability (BDAC). This study advances the discourse by investigating how the market environment and strategic orientations play significant but little-studied roles in enhancing or lessening BDAC’s impact on business model innovation (BMI).

Drawing on dynamic capability and contingency perspectives, a model of five hypotheses was developed and validated using survey data from 208 managers of manufacturing firms in Ghana. Covariance-based structural equation modeling was used for the analysis.

The findings revealed that BDAC and strategic orientation (market and learning) directly influence the dimensions of BMI (value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture). The findings further showed that strategic orientations partially mediate the BDAC–BMI link. The authors also noted that the BDAC–BMI link is amplified at high levels of market dynamism.

The findings suggest that investing in BDA alone may not be sufficient to drive superior business model innovation. However, market orientation and continuous learning are crucial to fully realizing BDAC’s full potential in enabling value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture, especially in a dynamic market environment.

This study contributes to existing BMI literature by being the first to examine how BDAC facilitates value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture in developing countries. This paper also advances BM literature by theorizing and validating important but rarely studied roles of strategic orientations and market dynamism. Thus, this paper extends the understanding of the conditions and mechanisms through which the effect of BDAC on value creation, value proposition, value delivery and value capture can be optimized.

As it is known, the accounting information system (AIS) plays a significant role in the business ecosystem by recording and processing financial and accounting data and reporting the produced information to all relevant parties for decision-making. However, its used methods and systems, including double-entry bookkeeping and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, have limitations, especially in terms of trust and reliability concerns for stakeholders and the possible scope for records manipulation and fraud. The application of blockchain technology is believed to enhance the reliability of the AIS and addresses many of its current limitations. Blockchain can offer numerous benefits if used to manage AIS functions through enhanced trust, reliability, and transparency, increased efficiency, reduced costs and fraud, improved accounting information quality and real-time accounting. Nevertheless, the adoption and implementation of blockchain in the AIS are associated with several technical and nontechnical challenges which are not easy to address and could limit the wide technology adoption in the immediate future. Considering that a full understanding of the benefits and challenges of adopting blockchain in the AIS still needs more clarification, this chapter examines blockchain technology and its implications for the AIS. It reviews blockchain characteristics and its benefits to the AIS, discusses its possible integration into the AIS, outlines adoption and implementation challenges, and suggests critical avenues for future research.

El objetivo de este trabajo es trazar la historia de la academia del turismo y ofrecer observaciones sobre su futuro desarrollo en el siglo XXI.

Este artículo se basa en una revisión limitada de la literatura y en las reflexiones personales de los autores a sus principales enfoques.

A lo largo de la revisión de la historia multigeneracional de la academia del turismo, se pone de manifiesto que, si bien nos hemos convertido en una comunidad de estudiosos más rigurosa desde el punto de vista científico, uno de los retos para el mundo académico en el futuro será cómo cultivar mejor un espíritu de entendimiento entre las distintas partes del mundo académico cuando se presenten puntos de vista que no parezcan coincidir con la propia concepción de la “verdad”.

Este artículo contribuye a los debates académicos sobre la historia y el futuro de la academia en turismo, al desafiar a la academia a reflexionar críticamente sobre su creciente diversidad y sobre cómo incorporar diversos puntos de vista al canon del conocimiento turístico.

This study aims to explore and evaluate how sociodemographic, psychographic and situational factors jointly determine the satisfaction and expenditure of sports tourists, two key variables for the sustainability and development of sport tourism.

To meet the objective of the study, structural equation modelling was applied to data collected through a face-to-face survey of 520 sports tourists practising outdoor sports in the Valle del Jerte region (Cáceres, Spain) during the months of March and April 2024.

The findings revealed that older and higher income tourists experienced higher levels of satisfaction with sporting activities. Specifically, young women with a high educational and economic level were found to have the highest expenditure in the sports destination. Furthermore, it was confirmed that authenticity, distance and water sports activities had a positive impact on visitor satisfaction, and that tourist expenditure was influenced by local connection and all sociodemographic and situational factors considered.

This analysis contributes to the sport tourism literature by combining factors of different typologies into a single model and by incorporating expenditure behaviour as a dependent variable and the type of sport activity variable as a situational factor affecting expenditure. This approach expands existing knowledge by providing a more comprehensive view of the effect of sociodemographic, psychographic and situational factors on sport tourism, allowing destination managers to design effective strategies that optimise the satisfaction and expenditure of sports tourists.

本研究旨在探讨和评估社会人口、心理和情境因素如何共同决定体育游客的满意度和消费, 这是体育旅游可持续发展的两个关键变量。

为实现研究目标, 我们采用结构方程模型（SEM）对 2024 年 3 月至 4 月期间在 Valle del Jerte 地区（西班牙卡塞雷斯）从事户外运动的 520 名体育游客进行了面对面调查。

结果显示, 收入较高的老年游客对体育活动的满意度较高。特别是, 教育和经济水平较高的年轻女性在体育目的地的消费最高。此外, 研究还证实, 真实性、距离和水上运动活动对游客满意度有积极影响, 而游客消费则受当地关联性以及所有社会人口和情景因素的影响。

这项分析将不同类型的因素整合到一个模型中, 并将消费行为作为因变量, 将体育活动类型作为影响消费的情景因素, 从而为体育旅游文献做出了贡献。这种方法能更全面地了解社会人口、心理和情境因素对体育旅游的影响, 从而扩展现有知识, 使目的地管理者能够设计有效的战略, 优化体育游客的满意度和消费。

Este estudio busca explorar y evaluar cómo los factores sociodemográficos, psicográficos y situacionales determinan conjuntamente la satisfacción y el gasto de los turistas deportivos, dos variables clave para la sostenibilidad y el desarrollo del turismo deportivo.

Para cumplir con el objetivo del estudio, se aplicó un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) a los datos recabados a través de una encuesta presencial a 520 turistas deportivos que practicaban deportes al aire libre en la comarca del Valle del Jerte (Cáceres, España) durante los meses de marzo y abril de 2024.

Los resultados revelaron que los turistas de mayor edad y con ingresos más elevados experimentaban mayores niveles de satisfacción con las actividades deportivas. En concreto, se observó que las mujeres jóvenes con un nivel educativo y económico alto eran las que más gastaban en el destino deportivo. Además, se confirmó que la autenticidad, la distancia y las actividades deportivas acuáticas influían positivamente en la satisfacción de los visitantes y que el gasto de los turistas estaba influenciado por la conexión local y por todos los factores sociodemográficos y situacionales considerados.

Este análisis contribuye a la literatura sobre turismo deportivo al combinar factores de diferentes tipologías en un único modelo y al incorporar el comportamiento de gasto como variable dependiente y la variable tipo de actividad deportiva como factor situacional que incide en el gasto. Este enfoque amplía el conocimiento existente al ofrecer una visión más completa del efecto de los factores sociodemográficos, psicográficos y situacionales en el turismo deportivo, lo que permite a los gestores de destinos diseñar estrategias eficaces que optimicen la satisfacción y el gasto de los turistas deportivos.

This study explores the determinants of public willingness to comply with COVID-19 regulations to address the research gap at the intersection of public health and law enforcement within the unique sociocultural context of Taiwan.

Utilizing survey data from New Taipei City in 2021, the analysis involved multiple linear regression models to assess the influences of psychological conditions (i.e. distress and self-efficacy), community compliance and perceptions of government (i.e. general trust in government and specific perceptions of police procedural justice) on compliance tendencies while controlling for individual demographics.

The results indicated that self-efficacy, perceived community compliance, trust in government, and police procedural justice are positively associated with public compliance with COVID-19 regulations. Among these variables, trust in government and police procedural justice were identified as the most prominent factors, followed by self-efficacy and perceived community compliance. As demographic factors such as age, gender and education did not significantly affect willingness to comply, psychological, social and governmental influences are more powerful determinants of compliance than static demographic characteristics.

This study provides empirical evidence from Taiwan on the factors shaping public compliance during an unprecedented global pandemic. It highlights the importance of fostering governmental trust and enhancing police procedural justice during periods of stability to secure compliance with public health directives in times of crisis.

This paper aims to review research on mental health and well-being (MHW) in tourism, which the United Nations addresses in Sustainable Development Goal No. 3 (SDG 3). The authors also pinpoint future directions regarding how tourism can contribute to this goal from theoretical and practical standpoints.

The authors review the literature on MHW in tourism from the perspectives of tourists, residents and tourism workers.

Researchers have predominantly analysed tourists’ MHW outcomes through the lenses of positive psychology and tourism therapy; only a small number of studies have focused on MHW-related benefits and challenges in terms of tourism development for residents and tourism workers. Investigations of MHW in tourism require interdisciplinary approaches to reveal how tourism promotes diverse stakeholders’ mental health. Practically, there is an urgent need to incorporate tourism products and services into mental health care, and design tourism experience with positive psychology principles.

This study offers insights into fostering MHW through tourism. It specifically proposes theoretical and practical ways in which tourism might enhance MHW for various industry stakeholders, contributing to SDG 3.

Se revisa la literatura relevante sobre la salud mental y el bienestar en el turismo desde la perspectiva de los turistas, residentes y trabajadores del sector turístico.

Actualmente, las investigaciones se centran principalmente en el análisis de la salud mental y el bienestar de los turistas desde la perspectiva de la psicología positiva y la terapia de turismo. Sin embargo, hay una falta de investigación sobre el impacto positivo y los desafíos del desarrollo turístico en la salud mental y el bienestar de los residentes y trabajadores del turismo. Por lo tanto, se requiere un enfoque interdisciplinario para revelar el papel del turismo en la promoción de la salud mental para diferentes partes interesadas. En cuanto a la práctica, se debe explorar activamente la integración de productos y servicios turísticos en el cuidado de la salud mental y diseñar actividades turísticas basadas en los principios de la psicología positiva.

Este estudio ofrece perspectivas sobre el papel del turismo en la promoción de la salud mental y el bienestar. Al proponer rutas teóricas y prácticas para mejorar la salud mental y el bienestar de las partes interesadas en el turismo, este artículo tiene como objetivo contribuir al logro del Objetivo de Desarrollo Sostenible 3 (ODS 3) de las Naciones Unidas.

The mechanical properties, including elastic constants and moduli, indicate the material’s stiffness and stability. Our calculations reveal that CuMg2GaS4 is a direct bandgap semiconductor, 2.18 eV. A detailed analysis of the electronic structure provides an insight into the bonding characteristics and charge distribution within the material.

This work presents a comprehensive investigation of the structural, electronic, optical, mechanical properties of the CuMg2GaS4 compound using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Unlike its counterpart CuMg2InS4, which exhibits a tetragonal WS structure, CuMg2GaS4 is found to be an energetically stable in the monoclinic phase.

The calculated effective masses of electrons (0.38 m0) and holes (1.28 m0) suggest promising charge carrier mobility within the compound. Furthermore, based on the evaluation of electronic structure and optical absorption properties of CuMg2GaS4 in relation with the redox potentials of water, this demonstrates its potential as a promising candidate for efficient photocatalytic water splitting under visible light irradiation. These findings contribute to the understanding of the structural and functional properties of CuMg2GaS4 and pave the way for its potential applications in optoelectronic and energy conversion devices.

The prime novelty is to employ ab initio self-consistent Full-Potential Linearized augmented plane wave + local orbital method (FP-LAPW + lo) and investigate the properties of CuMg2GaS4 of structural, mechanical, thermodynamic stabilities, linear optical response.

This chapter describes the redevelopment of the Open Language Chief Executive Personality Tool (OLCPT), a language-based machine learning (ML) tool for assessing executives' traits along the five factor model (FFM) of personality (openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism). Whereas the initial release of the OLCPT demonstrated the viability of using supervised machine learning to unobtrusively assess executives' personality traits, recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) related to large language models (LLMs) warranted revisiting its development. After applying LLM embeddings and performing other updates, including expanding the training sample, the redeveloped tool (available at https://zenodo.org/records/10800801) achieved substantially higher convergent validity than the initial release. The updated tool also demonstrates strong discriminant validity and reliability, and it can measure traits not included in the initial version (narcissism and humility). These improvements demonstrate the potential value of continuously updating existing, computer-aided measures in strategy and management research. Yet, such efforts may not always be feasible or even necessary. Thus, we also use this chapter to offer guidelines for determining when updating similar measures is worthwhile, urging scholars to carefully consider how existing tools perform and the relevance of advancements to the technologies underlying them. We conclude with additional suggestions for advancing measurement in our field, including keeping up with emerging technologies, encouraging complementary approaches to enable triangulation, avoiding the use of advanced techniques without carefully considering their applicability in a given context, and being realistic about what we ask for during the review process and what we consider a meaningful contribution in our field.
