Abstract

Purpose

This qualitative research aims to explore staff perspectives on working effectively with people with intellectual disability who are in contact with the criminal justice system.

Design/methodology/approach

Taking a case study approach, staff working for a third sector community organisation were interviewed about the components of effective work with their customers. The staff supported people engaged in the Community Justice Program.

Findings

Staff consistently described relationship building as the most important part of their work. There were three components to relationship building: the process of relationship building, the elements of a high-quality staff–customer relationship and the staff skills needed to develop a good relationship.

Originality/value

This paper makes two contributions to the literature. First, it focuses our attention on a third sector organisation supporting people in contact with the justice system as opposed to a formal criminal justice agency. Second, the paper seeks to understand the processes and skills staff deploy to build a high-quality relationship with criminal justice-involved people with intellectual disability.

Abstract

Purpose

We investigated the association of COVID-19 indicators and economic uncertainty indices on payment-based system cryptocurrency (i.e. Bitcoin, Ripple and Dogecoin) returns.

Design/methodology/approach

We used an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model for panel data and performed robustness checks by utilizing a random effect model (REM) and generalized method of moments (GMM). There are 25 most adopted cryptocurrency’s countries and the data spans from 22 March 2021 to 6 May 2022.

Findings

This research discovered four findings: (1) the index of COVID-19 vaccine confidence (VCI) recovers the economic and Bitcoin has become more attractive, causing investors to shift their investment from Dogecoin to Bitcoin. However, the VCI was revealed to be insignificant to Ripple; (2) during uncertain times, Bitcoin could perform as a diversifier, while Ripple could behave as a diversifier, safe haven or hedge. Meanwhile, the movement of Dogecoin prices tended to be influenced by public figures’ actions; (3) public opinion on Twitter and government policy changes regarding COVID-19 and economy had a crucial role in investment decision making; and (4) the COVID-19 variants revealed insignificant results to payment-based system cryptocurrency returns.

Originality/value

This study contributed to verifying the vaccine confidence index effect on payment-based system cryptocurrency returns. Also, we further investigated the uncertainty indicators impacting on cryptocurrency returns during the COVID-19 pandemic. Lastly, we utilized the COVID-19 variants as a cryptocurrency returns’ new determinant.

Abstract

Purpose

This research looks into the revolutionary potential of Industry 5.0, healthcare, sustainability and the metaverse, with a focus on the transformation of healthcare firms through cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT). The study emphasizes the significance of sustainability, human-machine collaboration and Industry 5.0 in the development of a technologically advanced, inclusive and immersive healthcare system.

Design/methodology/approach

The study surveyed 354 medical professionals and used structural equation modeling (SEM) to investigate healthcare sustainability, Industry 5.0 and the metaverse, emphasizing the integration of modern technology while maintaining ethical issues.

Findings

The findings highlight Industry 5.0’s and the metaverse’s transformational potential in healthcare firms. The study finds that human centricity (HC) has only a minor direct impact on healthcare sustainability, whereas intelligent automation (IA) and innovation (INN) play important roles that are regulated by external factors.

Practical implications

Utilizing IA inside healthcare organizations can result in significant industrial advancements. However, these organizations must recognize the importance of moderating factors and attempt to find a balance between INN and thesev restraints.

Originality/value

This study makes a substantial contribution to the field by investigating the potential of Industry 5.0, healthcare, sustainability and the metaverse. It discusses how these advances can transform healthcare firms, with an emphasis on patient-centered treatment, environmental sustainability and data ethics. The study emphasizes the importance of having a thorough awareness of these trends and their implications for healthcare practices.
