Evidence-based translation in postpartum pelvic floor rehabilitation nursing
Background: Postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is a common condition and can undermine women's physical comfort, mental health, and social functioning.

This review summarizes the current evidence and compares it with routine care. Materials and methods: Recent studies and clinical practice guidelines were exam…
The dynamics of trust development in the life cycle of information systems’ use
This study takes a life cycle approach to investigate the process of trust development. The life cycle of user trust is based on the life cycle of information systems (IS) usage, including the pre-usage, usage, and post-usage stages. In this study, we conceptualise trust development in a three-stage model, and identify the driving forces for trust development and its impact on user behaviour at each stage. Using online dating services (ODS) as ou…
Conflicting social influences regarding controversial information systems
Purpose Controversial information systems (IS) represent a unique context in which certain members of a user's social circle may endorse the use of a system while others object to it. The purpose of this paper is to explore the simultaneous and often conflicting roles of such positive and negative social influences through social learning and ambivalence theories in shaping user adoption intention of a representative case of controversial IS, nam…
E-waste information security protection motivation
Purpose Electronic waste (e-waste) such as discarded computers and smartphones may contain large amounts of confidential data. Improper handling of remaining information in e-waste can, therefore, drive information security risk. This risk, however, is not always properly assessed and managed. The authors take the protection motivation theory (PMT) lens of analysis to understand intentions to protect one's discarded electronic assets. Design/meth…
The impact of ignorance and bias on information security protection motivation
Purpose Protection motivation theory (PMT) explains that the intention to cope with information security risks is based on informed threat and coping appraisals. However, people cannot always make appropriate assessments due to possible ignorance and cognitive biases. This study proposes a research model that introduces four antecedent factors from ignorance and bias perspectives into the PMT model and empirically tests this model with data from …
Dust Events and Indoor Air Quality in Residential Homes in Kuwait
Kuwait is a developed Middle Eastern country that is impacted by frequent dust storms from regional and/or remote deserts. The effectiveness of keeping homes tightly closed during these events to reduce dust exposures was assessed using indoor and outdoor particle samples at 10 residences within the metropolitan Kuwait City area. Specifically, this study compared indoor and outdoor levels of black carbon and 19 trace elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, S, …
A decision paradox
Purpose Online dating services have been growing rapidly in recent years. However, adopting these services may involve high risk and trust issues among potential users toward both online dating services and the daters they introduce to users. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how perceived benefits vs risks, and trust vs distrust affect user adoption vs non-adoption intentions toward using this rather controversial information and commu…
Do Airbnb’s “Superhosts” deserve the badge? An empirical study from China
The “Superhost” badge is that Airbnb entitles the host provides good services.

Six kinds of hosts’ good services are identified, including “Three Meals or Night Snacks,” “Fruits, Drinks or Snacks,” “Travel Guides,” “Free Shuttle …
A trust-risk perspective on social commerce use
Purpose Social commerce websites have emerged as new platforms which integrate social media features with traditional commerce aspects to enhance users' purchasing experience. The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of social factors such as trust toward site members in determining users' trust and risk evaluations, and the role of social commerce use habit in attenuating users' rational risk and trust considerations for developing purch…
Managing business‐to‐business relationships throughout the e‐commerce procurement life cycle

From the supplier side, marketing, sales, and service information is also readily gathered from customers. Building and maintaining customer relationships is the…
