The role of learning motivation in linking regulatory emotional self-efficacy to professional identity among vocational medical students
OBJECTIVE: This study compared regulatory emotional self-efficacy (RESE), learning motivation (LM), and professional identity (PI) between vocational medical students who actively chose their major and those who did not, and further examined the mediating role of LM in the relationship between RESE and PI. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 332 first-year vocational medical students were divided into an active choice group (n = 155) and a pa…
Moderating the Effects of Artificial Intelligence on Language Learning
This study examines how artificial intelligence (AI) tools support self‐regulated learning (SRL) and psychological need satisfaction in a Chinese university English‐as‐a‐foreign‐language (EFL) context, focusing on the moderating role of prior knowledge, operationalized in this study as baseline English proficiency. Using a quasi‐experimental design, 190 undergraduates enrolled in a mandatory College English course engaged with either general‐purp…

Employee Overtime and Innovation Dilemma
A social influence view of the internationalization of cultural products
A thriving international cultural industry fuels the expansion of the global creative economy. Yet, what drives the international diffusion and performance of cultural products? This study adopts a social influence perspective to examine the international performance of film exports, addressing a critical gap in existing research that often isolates social influences without considering the impact of their (in)congruence. Given the subjective nat…

The Power of Precision
Can algorithmic control positively impact employee well‐being in the workplace? This study examines the potential benefits of algorithmic control, particularly through monitoring work activities and assessing performance, in enhancing employees' workplace well‐being within conventional employment settings. Grounded in labour process theory, our analysis of a multi‐wave data set reveals that both algorithmic monitoring and performance management c…
Reconciling multiple institutional logics for ambidexterity
Over the past several decades, Chinese universities have introduced various Western-style human resource management (HRM) practices to improve organizational performance. Such HRM innovations have resulted in new employment relations and paradoxical HR practices, which cannot be explained by the unitary institutional logic assumed by conventional HRM theories. Based on in-depth interviews of academic and administrative members, this study examine…
Legitimacy under pressure
Environmental pollution and climate change have become alarming global issues in the process of rapid economic growth and accelerated internationalization. Due to the environmentally sensitive nature of energy firms, maintaining their legitimacy in the international expansion process, especially in countries with weak environmental performance, is a largely underexplored area in the existing literature. Building on legitimacy as a theoretical per…

The impact of Covid-19 on tourism firm value in an emerging market during various pandemic prevention periods
The tourism industry is one of the hardest hit by Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). A growing number of studies have examined the negative impact of COVID-19 on the tourism industry, but what remains less explored is the underlying mechanism of such a negative impact of the pandemic on tourism firm value. This study focuses on three COVID-19 prevention and control periods to test the impact of COVID-19 on stock returns and the mediating effect…

Smart cities and sustainable development
The last two decades have witnessed a surge in interest in the smart–sustainable city, but it remains unclear how smart cities can achieve the multifaceted goals of sustainable development, such as ecological performance, human development and sustainability efficiency. This study performs a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) of 35 Chinese large smart cities through configurational theorizing of the smart–sustainable city nexus. T…
Nursery City Innovation
How can innovative cities be cultivated and fertilized? Embracing and reframing insights from multidisciplinary academic discourse, we conceptualize three paired tensional dimensions, namely, the human‐society, the market‐government and the global–local tensions, to form a six‐I city innovation framework. Also termed a CELL framework, the six I‐related key elements are: human intelligence, societal incentives, government involvement, market incli…
Global connectedness, local embeddedness and creative economies in European cities
Embracing the global–local debate, this study examines how cities configure their global connectedness and local embeddedness attributes in order to achieve the high performance of urban creative economies in Europe. Using the configurational approach, a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) is undertaken to investigate urban creative economy performance in a sample of 168 European cities from 30 countries during the period 2000–17. …

Regional competitiveness for attracting and retaining foreign direct investment
This study examines the entry and exit of multinational enterprises (MNEs) across regions in China. It analyses the strategic entry and exit of MNEs in 31 Chinese provinces during the period 2001–07. The fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) reveals multiple regional competitiveness profiles, as configurations of economic and institutional conditions, which are associated with a large scale of MNE entries and/or exits. It is found th…

Occupational safety in China
The improvement of health and safety standards within the organizational context is an important issue of global concern. China's occupational health and safety (OHS) has increasingly drawn national and international attention as it has not kept pace with its globalization of production and trade. The traditional approach to managing workplace safety in China has focused on the technical aspects of engineering systems and processes, and it has at…
