Value-driven energy prosumerism: Toward an integrated understanding of peer-to-peer energy trading adoption
The growth of residential renewable energy has created new opportunities for decentralized energy systems, including peer-to-peer energy trading (P2P-ET). While the technical potential of P2P-ET is increasingly recognized, its broader adoption remains contingent on a complex set of behavioral drivers. This study proposes a two-tier behavioral framework to explain how individual value orientations (biospheric, egoistic, hedonic and altruistic) and…
Put your feet up: The impact of personality traits, job pressure, and social support on the need for recovery after work
The need for recovery after work (NFR) is an important warning of work-related fatigue. NFR is linked to prolonged work-related efforts and depletion of resources, creating a need for temporary respite from work demands. The aim of the current study was to investigate the relationships between NFR and the five-factor model (FFM), comprising the personality traits of emotional stability (ES), extraversion (E), agreeableness (A), conscientiousness …
Cultivating flexibility: The relationship between flexible organizational values, participation climate, and job attitudes from an employee perspective
Adopting a flexible organizational culture have the potential to be a remedy for organizations that face globalization, technological advancements, and higher expectations from the workforce. However, research on the mechanism between organizational culture and its outcomes remain understudied. This study adopts an employee-centric approach, suggesting that employees’ perception of a participation climate act as a mediator between flexible organi…
Enhancing Self-Reported Assessment of Working Conditions in Policing: Revisiting the Psychometric Properties and Applications of the Police Stress Questionnaire
ObjectivesPolicing is recognized as a highly stressful occupation, encompassing stressors not commonly encountered in other fields. In response, police-specific stress scales have been developed and used when studying police work. Despite changes in the composition of police personnel, most studies examining police working conditions focus on sworn police officers (SPO), excluding employees without police education (EWPE). To advance research and…
A longitudinal study of human–chatbot relationships
Social chatbots have become more advanced, paving the way for human–chatbot relationships (HCRs). Although this phenomenon has already received some research attention, the results have been contradictory, and there is uncertainty regarding how to understand HCR formation. To provide the needed knowledge on this phenomenon, we conducted a qualitative longitudinal study. We interviewed 25 participants over a 12-week period to understand how their …
My Chatbot Companion - a Study of Human-Chatbot Relationships
There has been a recent surge of interest in social chatbots, and human-chatbot relationships (HCRs) are becoming more prevalent, but little knowledge exists on how HCRs develop and may impact the broader social context of the users. Guided by Social Penetration Theory, we interviewed 18 participants, all of whom had developed a friendship with a social chatbot named Replika, to understand the HCR development process. We find that at the outset, …
More than, less than, or minimum, maximum: How upper and lower bounds determine subjective interval estimates
Uncertain quantities can be described by single‐point estimates of lower interval bounds ( X 1 ), upper interval bounds ( X 2 ), two‐bound estimates (separate estimates of X 1 and X 2 ), and by ranges ( X 1 − X 2 ). A price estimation task showed that single‐bound estimates phrased as “ T costs more than X 1 ” and “ T costs less than X 2 ,” yielded much larger intervals than “minimum X 1 ” and “maximum X 2 .” This difference can be attributed to …
