Punishment, Emotional Intelligence, and Leadership Skills Development: Constructive Discipline or Counterproductive Stress
type: item
description: The majority of leadership development in military-style educational institutions is a result of stringent methods of discipline and punishment. While punishment seeks to correct behavior and promote discipline, the effect of punishment on the development of leadership traits and emotional growth are debated. The aim of this study is to determine whether punishment has direct effect on the development of leadership traits or whether punishment acts through emotional intelligence, and whether emotional intelligence functions as a mediating variable with respect to punishment and leadership traits development. The study when carried out entailed the survey of a total of 270 cadets from Pakistan’s Cadet Colleges in a cross sectional survey form, and used validated scales measuring punishment, emotional intelligence and leadership traits. The data collected were analyzed through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM), regarding direct, indirect and mediating effects. Results indicate that punishment does not directly develop leadership traits, but that it does modify emotional intelligence in a positive direction through supervision, and development of emotional intelligence does subsequently develop leadership traits. Cadets with a higher emotional intelligence were able to translate punishment into reflective learning, resiliency and interpersonal skills, hence in this indirect way enabling them to have increased leadership traits. Thus, the importance of emotional intelligence in the function of punishment being either a constructive discipline medium or a means of stress is indicated. These results point to the importance of integrating emotionally intelligent concepts into discipline with regard to the literature on leadership skills development.

Employee Resilience Dynamics in SMEs under Environmental Turbulence: A Conservation of Resources Theory Approach
type: item
description: Workplaces are prone to challenges and adversities, and employees are evident to be the significant players in facing and overcoming challenges. Resilient employees cope with challenges and as a significant organizational resource they can contribute to survival and prosperity of organization. SMEs are deemed more vulnerable during a crisis due to limited resources and for sustaining in uncertain business environment SMEs should develop employee resilience. Conservation of Resource (COR) theory is a motivational-stress theory which holds that people strive to obtain, retain, and protect things they value, and threat to resources triggers stress and motivates behaviors to defend and accumulate them. Literature about employee resilience highlights the role of authentic leader, perceived organizational support, and organizational identification in fostering employee resilience, while there is environmental turbulence that can interfere in employee resilience development, whereas employee resilience is associated with employee performance. This is a concept paper that analyzes employee resilience of SME employees in the lens of COR theory, in which authentic leadership is a social resource that results in a organizational resource i.e. perceived organizational support, which contributes in personal resource i.e. organizational identification, which results in employee resilience as another personal resource. Environmental turbulence is a primary source of stress because it threatens employee resilience, organizational identification and external resources, but employee resilience influence employees to bounce back and result in employee performance. The model will provide theoretical framework for empirical research, which will help in improving human resource practices and policies.

Harnessing Digital Technology for Sustainable Growth in Southeast Asia: The Role of Trade Openness and Institutional Excellence
type: item
description: The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emphasize the importance of harnessing innovation and technology to address pressing global challenges like poverty, inequality, climate change, and economic sustainability. Southeast Asia’s ASEAN countries have shown remarkable growth in GDP and the digital economy, but also face significant pollution issues. Despite these dynamics, research into ASEAN's sustainability remains limited. This study examines the impact of digital technology and digital service trade on sustainable development in ASEAN, with a focus on the moderating role of institutional quality. Using panel data from 10 ASEAN countries between 2005 and 2019, this study employs feasible generalized least squares and generalized estimating equations to examine the influence of institutional quality on sustainability. This study incorporates population size and industrial value added as control variables. The findings reveal that while digitalization alone does not ensure sustainability, digital service trade can pose risks unless supported by strong institutions. This research highlights the importance of institutional development in harnessing digital advancements for environmental and social progress. The study showed that enhancing institutional quality and aligning policies are crucial to transforming digital innovation and trade into sustainable and equitable growth across ASEAN.

Enhancing Customer Retention within Malaysia Banking: Exploring the Impact of Relationship Marketing, Service Quality, Price, and Mediating Role of Satisfaction
type: item
description: The value of Customer Retention as the primary goal is to cultivate a loyal customer base that continually generates revenue through repeat transactions. The merger undertaken by the bank has resulted in a more extensive customer base, affording the opportunity for cross-selling various financial products. It is noteworthy that the performance of banks exhibited fluctuations. Remarkably, smaller banks can outperform their larger counterparts. As a result, this study aims to explore the strategies that enhance customer satisfaction by nurturing customer relationships through the perspective of Relationship Marketing. The establishment of long-term relationships emerges as a pivotal approach for banks to deliver quality services, encompassing both human and non-human interaction. Satisfaction plays a mediating role in achieving customers’ expectations in addition of the pricing strategy employed by banks, particularly the interest rates extended to customers. To obtain empirical insights, quantitative research is being conducted. Questionnaires have been distributed to customers selected at random from three distinct areas in Perak state. A total of 129 questionnaires were gathered and analyzed with SmartPLS. The outcomes were positive and supported relationship between relationship marketing and service quality in promoting retaining customer, with the two variables being mediated by satisfaction. Despite that, the linkage of pricing strategies and Customer Retention is not substantiated, and no mediation through customer satisfaction is observed. This implies that customers may be highly inclined to switch if being offered more competitive pricing. For future investigations, in the banking performance, are encouraged to explore the perspective of banks’ operation cost and management expenses.

Factors Affecting Green Entrepreneurial Intention in Malaysian University Students After the Covid-19 Pandemic
type: item
description: The business world has witnessed a shift towards green entrepreneurship, driven by the need to address environmental issues and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Traditional businesses have embraced technology and adapted their strategies to align with environmental preservation goals. The level of pollution, including water and air pollution, caused by large corporations has become a significant concern globally. Green entrepreneurship involves selling environmentally friendly products and working towards economic stability while safeguarding the environment. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global economies and caused uncertainties in economic growth, leading to virtual communication and limited supply and demand. Moreover, the pandemic has highlighted the vulnerability of businesses, emphasising the importance of adopting a green business model to prevent future health-related crises. Efforts to protect the environment have been increasing since the early 1970s, with universities playing a crucial role in promoting entrepreneurial education and practical training. However, aspiring entrepreneurs, especially students, face challenges in accessing information, funding, and government support for their green business ideas. Future entrepreneurs and the younger generation hold the key to creating a greener business environment and need support from universities and businesses. A total of 169 useful responses were received to be analysed for this study. The results confirms the positive significance of self-efficacy, attitude, and the need for achievement on green entrepreneurial intention. However, educational support did not show a significant influence. These findings confirm essential factors for green entrepreneurship, also highlighting the practical implications and potential roles of educational institutions and policymakers in fostering sustainable entrepreneurship among university students.

The Role of Leadership to Employees’ Behaviors: A Signaling Theory Perspective
type: item
description: ABSTRACT The issues of climate change and environmental degradation are substantial human concerns that have resulted in numerous consequences. The responsibility lies with human behaviors. Every company must adhere to environmental laws and regulations and emphasize employees’ pro-behaviors towards the environment (EPBTE). The primary aim of this academic investigation is to utilize the signaling theory to find the variables that influence EPBTE. The EPBTE is influenced by two main variables: spiritual leadership (SPL) and organizational support towards the environment (OSTE). The proposed model was evaluated in the banking industry using SEM analysis, employing the snowball sampling technique. The data support the influence of OSTE on EPBTE, and SPL also plays a substantial role in moderating this association. The present study contributes to the existing knowledge in the field of EPBTE research by investigating the significance of OSTE and SPL. Furthermore, the role of OSTE and SPL in the signaling theory perspective also adds knowledge to the existing literature.

Exploring the Role of Efficacy of Inclusive Instructions, Efficacy Collaboration, Efficacy Managing Behavior on Inclusive Practice among Teachers
type: item
description: All children, including those with various impairments and learning challenges, are entitled to education in regular schools, in response to the Salamanca Statement. Chinese authorities have demonstrated their commitment to inclusion through legislation, policy, and statements. The Chinese inclusive education paradigm has grown significantly over the last few decades. Nonetheless, research on the impact of Chinese teachers' efficacy in implementing inclusive practices in primary and secondary classrooms is limited. This cross-sectional study addresses this issue by evaluating 211 teachers in Beijing, Tianjin, Chengdu, and Qingdao, China. Quantitative data were collected from each participant using multiple regression analysis to examine the causal and effect between three predictors, efficacy in using inclusive instruction (EII), efficacy in collaboration (EC), and efficacy in managing behavior (EMB), on the inclusive practices as a criterion. The research results show that when teachers' EC is bolstered, an inclusive approach increases on the other side. This means that when teachers are more confident in their collaboration in inclusive education, they are more likely to adopt inclusive practices to support a diverse range of students better. As China's education system is still transforming, this finding has vital roles and implications for developing inclusive education policy and practice in China as educators interact with a more diverse student population.

The Role of Transformational Leadership on Performance among Academic Staff in China
type: item
description: An essential element that enhances the quality of education, particularly in terms of its impact on teaching performance in higher education, is the leadership using appropriate styles.The study, therefore, seeks to measure the impact of four pillars of transformational leadership: Idealized Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual Stimulation, and Individualized Consideration on the teaching performance of the academic staff. The sample included 290 full-time teachers from Wenzhou, China. Data were obtained through an online survey utilizing a structured questionnaire based on the theories and literature of the relevant review. AMOS was used to test the four validated research hypotheses and give a comprehensive measurement model. The study asserts that the four aspects of transformational leadership positively affect teaching performance, reflected by the four I's of transformational leadership. The current findings are beneficial to universities and assist educational leaders in gaining information on how transformational leadership dimensions may be used to influence the staff's teaching performance positively. In addition, the paper contributes to the existing corpus of research presented on the impact of transformational leadership on the teaching performance of the academic staff. Further, it informs policy and educational administrators in this area.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Chinese Parents And Students: Shifting Perspectives on Higher Education Amidst the Crisis
type: item
description: Since 2020, Chinese students studying in the United States have suffered a precipitous decline in enrollment. The restrictive nature of Chinese and American student visa policies during COVID-19 impacted Chinese international students' travel and admissions patterns. The result was an increased number of Chinese students studying in the U.K. and the European Union. This study employed approximately 60-minute ethnographic interviews with 15 participants to investigate Chinese parental decision making during the COVID crisis regarding their children's study abroad. The semi-structured audio-recorded interviews were conducted both remotely and physically. Interview data identified six major factor themes directed toward these fifteen parent participants: 1. Physical Safety, 2. Gender of Applicant, 3. Familial Financial Concerns, 4. Likelihood of Return, 5. Elite Education, and 6. "Conor Overtaking". These were strong indications that factors impact decision-making, and the COVID crisis has been involved in the process. Implications are discussed.

Comparison Analysis of Blockchain Consensus Algorithms in Decentralized Public Environment: A Review
type: item
description: The rapid evolution of blockchain technology has led to the development of various consensus algorithms (Ben-Sasson et al., 2014), each with distinct characteristics that influence the scalability, decentralization, energy efficiency, and transaction costs within decentralized public environments (Ampel et al., 2019). This study provides a comprehensive review of prominent consensus mechanisms (Block & Marcussen, 2019), including Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), Proof of Elapsed Time (PoET), and others, to elucidate their operational principles (Hu et al., 2021), strengths, and limitations (Al-Housni, 2019). Through a systematic comparison based on defined parameters, we dissect the transaction processes across different blockchains to understand their suitability for diverse applications. Our findings reveal significant trade-offs among the chosen algorithms, highlighting how they balance efficiency with security and decentralization. The analysis aims to offer insights into optimizing blockchain design for enhanced performance and sustainability, addressing the critical challenges faced by current and future decentralized systems. This paper not only serves as a guide for selecting appropriate consensus algorithms for specific needs but also sets the stage for further research into developing more robust and efficient blockchain frameworks.

Teachers’ Insight on Digital Competencies and Maturity among School Administrators in Sarawak, Malaysian Schools
type: item
description: Digital in education is always evolving at a quick pace and Malaysia experienced a slower rate of adaption among the some Southeast countries. the administrators at the schools possess inadequate digital competence. This article aims to investigate the competence of school administrators from the perspective of teachers, as well as to classify Malaysian schools' level of digital maturity. Moreover, digital maturity is a prerequisite for the success of digital transformation, yet research on digital maturity in Malaysian education is lacking. Six Malaysian teachers participated in a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) by utilising a qualitative method. This study identified school administrators' competence for digital leadership are vision and mission, digital culture, digital professional development, digitally go-forward, digital safety and digital resilience. The subthemes are problem-solving, communication, teamwork, creativity, critical thinking, ethical and cultural awareness, adaptability, self-direction, technical skills, lifelong learning, and information management. Malaysian schools' digital maturity, as measured by the Educational Process-Capability Digital Maturity (EPCMM), is at level 3, which is designated as "Management." In order to empower and improve school administrators' competences to fully integrate digital technology into daily administrative tasks while leading the digital cultural changes in their schools, it is helpful to know the level of digital maturity in Malaysian schools.

The Washback Effect of Cet4 Reading Comprehension Test on EFL College Students' Language Learning Attitude
type: item
description: Washback in language testing studies how important exams affect teaching and learning. The College English Test Band 4 (CET-4) is a major foreign language test in China, and this study focuses on how it impacts students' attitudes toward reading comprehension. While previous research has looked at CET-4's impact on teaching and materials, there's a gap in understanding how students feel about the reading comprehension part. This study used a survey to investigate non-English major college students from two departments in one college in China about their experiences in CET-4 Reading Comprehension. The results show both positive and negative effects of CET-4 on students' attitudes. The study suggests ways to enhance the positive impact and reduce the negative, which can influence how students approach learning and feel about CET-4.

Willingness to Communicate among EFL Middle School Students in a Selected School in H City, China
type: item
description: In the Chinese education system, there is a notable emphasis on developing reading and writing skills in English, often employing a teacher-centered instructional approach. This focus may inadvertently sideline opportunities for real-world engagement and verbal communication in English, potentially hindering students' confidence and preparedness for oral language use. Recognizing the significance of cultivating a willingness to communicate as a crucial aspect of effective foreign language teaching, this study delves into factors influencing students' communication willingness, specifically exploring the impact of anxiety, self-efficacy, and speech proficiency. The research encompasses 361 participants from H City, China's middle school. The findings reveal a positive classroom environment and favorable experiences among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. The reported low anxiety levels indicate that effective teaching methods and gradual exposure to English-speaking activities contribute to a constructive and confidence-building learning atmosphere. Interestingly, though anxiety is found to have a practically negligible impact on willingness to communicate, both speech proficiency and self-efficacy exhibit moderate to strong positive associations with students' willingness to engage in English communication. These results highlight the significance of nurturing speech proficiency and self-efficacy in language learning contexts to foster active participation and confidence in English.

Reliability and Validity of Factors Affecting Quality of life in Breast Cancer Survivors
type: item
description: The high prevalence and mortality rates of breast cancer among women in global are a pressing concern. In Malaysia, about 8418 women from different cultural background were diagnosed with this disease in 2020, which emphasizing the need to address the factors that impact their quality of life. Certain factors have been identified through literature search and it was found that psychological state, self-care behavior, social support, healthcare support and the use of social media affect cancer women’s quality of life. To identify the usefulness of the related items, this study assessed reliability and validity of a survey instrument measuring those five factors that relate to the factors affecting quality of life in breast cancer. It measured six constructs using a 5-likert scale. Thirty breast cancer survivors have participated in this study, which, in result, found the instrument to be reliable for all measured constructs. However, one construct and certain items were found to be invalid, indicating the need for revision to ensure the instrument’s high validity. Future studies can explore these factors in more detail using qualitative methods through interview gathering data technique. The study also has policy implications to develop social media education and awareness program specifically for local women with breast cancer, as well as community to promote responsible and effective use of social media, which then focus to improve overall quality of life.

description: The aims of this research are to examine the relationship between female directors, board size, independent commissioners, quality of earnings ratio on the quality of integrated reporting. In addition, this research also investigates how political connections moderate the effects of these variables on integrated reporting quality. The data was collected from annual reports of non-cyclical consumer goods companies listed on the IDX between 2019 and 2022. The analysis indicates that only the size of the board of commissioners had a significant effect on the quality of integrated reporting, while other variables show an insignificant effects on the quality of integrated reporting. However, the test results show that politically connected companies exhibit a stronger influence of female directors and board size on integrated reporting quality. With the results of this study, it is expected to contribute to a broader understanding of integrated reporting, so that it can help the development of integrated reporting.

The Effect of Asymmetric Information, Board of Commissioners Size, and Independent Board of Commissioners, on Earnings Management with Managerial Ownership as a Moderating Variable
type: item
description: This research aims to explore and provide empirical evidence regarding the influence of asymmetric information, board of commissioners size, and the presence of independent board members on earnings management in real estate and related companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2020 to 2022. Managerial ownership is introduced as a moderating variable in this investigation. Utilizing Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) for data analysis, the study revealed that asymmetric information, board of commissioners size, and independent board members did not significantly impact earnings management. However, when considering managerial ownership as a moderating factor, the presence of independent board members exhibited an influence on earnings management. This highlights the intricate relationship between corporate governance factors, specifically the board composition, and earnings management, with managerial ownership playing a moderating role. These findings provide valuable insights for stakeholders and policymakers, offering a nuanced understanding of corporate dynamics within the Indonesian real estate and related sectors.

title: The Effect of Female Directors, Board Size, Independent Commissioners, and Political Connections on Tax Avoidance With Integrated Reporting Quality as a Mediating Variable: Case Study of Non-Cyclical Consumer Goods Sector Companies Listed on Idx 2019-2022
description: This study examines the relationship between female directors, independent commissioners, board size, and political connection and corporate tax avoidance. In addition, this study examines the role of integrated report quality as a mediating variable in the relationship between these factors on tax avoidance. This research is motivated by the lack of research related to the role of integrated reporting, especially in Indonesia. This study uses the PLS-SEM analysis method to analyze data from non-cyclical consumer goods companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019-2022. This study found that female directors and board size affect tax avoidance, while other variables do not significantly affect tax avoidance. However, when the integrated reporting quality used as mediating variable shows that integrated reporting is able to mediate the influence of board size, independent commissioners and political connection on tax avoidance. With these results, it can describe the role of integrated reports as an effective tool to minimize tax avoidance by increasing the transparency of the company. This study used integrated reporting quality as a mediating variable on tax avoidance. Additionally, the measurement of integrated report quality in this study used modifications from previous studies.

The Influence of Heuristic and Computer-Assisted Audit Techniques (CAAT) on Fraud Detection with Experience as a Mediating
type: item
description: This study explores the impact of Heuristics and Computer-Assisted Audit Techniques (CAAT) on fraud detection, with Experience as the mediating variable. The findings show that CAAT has no significant effect on fraud detection, while heuristics have a significant effect. Experience also directly contributes positively to fraud detection. An interesting result is that CAAT affects fraud detection through experience as a mediator, while heuristics have no significant effect when mediated by experience. Experience serves as a key bridge that strengthens the relationship between CAAT and fraud detection. The implication is that organisations can improve audit strategies by understanding the complexity of these factors, acknowledging the differential impact between CAAT and heuristics, and leveraging experience as a vital mediator tool to improve fraud detection.
