Art Students' Technostress, Perceived Usefulness, Satisfaction, and Continuance Intention to Use Mobile Educational Applications
In: Sage open, Band 14, Heft 2
ISSN: 2158-2440
Although learning with mobile educational applications (apps) has become popular in higher education, the factors accounting for students' voluntary continuous usage have not yet been investigated fully. This study aims to understand art students' continuance intention by combining the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) and the effect of technostress. A research model was proposed and verified with a sample of 339 undergraduates who majored in art from two Chinese universities. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that: (a) both perceived usefulness and satisfaction directly predict continuance intention, while perceived usefulness indirectly predicts continuance intention through the mediating effect of satisfaction; (b) Technostress has a direct negative effect on both perceived usefulness and continuance intention, but has no direct effect on satisfaction; (c) Technostress indirectly influence students' continuance intention through the mediator of perceived usefulness and satisfaction. The theoretical and practical implications based on the findings are discussed.
Enhancing supply chain resilience with supply chain governance and finance: the enabling role of digital technology adoption
In: Business process management journal, Band 29, Heft 4, S. 944-964
ISSN: 1758-4116
PurposeThis study aims to explore the impact of supply chain governance (SCG) on supply chain resilience (SCR) in China, as well as the mediating role of supply chain finance (SCF) and the moderating role of digital technology adoption (DTA).Design/methodology/approachBased on resource orchestration theory (ROT), this paper constructs a theoretical model to examine the influence of SCG on SCR. Employing data collected from 312 Chinese firms, multiple regression is conducted to test the theoretical hypotheses.FindingsThe results indicate that both relational governance (RG) and contractual governance (CG) significantly enhance SCR and SCF. In addition, SCF plays a mediating role in the relationship between SCG and SCR. The study also finds that DTA has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between SCG and SCF.Originality/valueFirst, based on ROT, this paper clarifies the nuanced driving effects of RG and CG on SCR. Second, SCF is introduced as an intermediary process between SCG and SCR, which reveals the inner mechanisms between SCG and SCR. Moreover, this study contributes to investigating the contingent role of DTA in the relationship between SCG and SCF.

Sudden crisis events and firms' stock price fluctuations: A multidimensional heterogeneity perspective
In: Journal of contingencies and crisis management, Band 32, Heft 1
ISSN: 1468-5973
AbstractThis study takes listed companies that have experienced sudden crisis events as samples. The event study method and multiple regression analysis are further adopted to explore the relationship between sudden crisis events and the stock price fluctuations of listed companies from the perspective of multidimensional characteristics. Findings reveal that sudden crisis events have a significant impact on stock price fluctuations. However, the firms' response frequency and response time to crisis events can exert a buffering role in their adverse association. Further analysis shows that the stock price fluctuations also vary with different heterogeneous characteristics including crisis event types, ownership types, firm competitiveness and firm size. The multidimensional analysis targeting the impact of sudden crisis events on the stock market is conducive to helping firms grasp the rhythm of crisis events and further implement some practical and feasible crisis management measures.

Parent–child gender effect in the associations among problematic internet use, parent–adolescent conflict, and academic engagement
In: Family relations, Band 73, Heft 3, S. 1536-1549
ISSN: 1741-3729
AbstractObjectiveIn this study, we explored whether and how the indirect effects of father– and mother–adolescent conflict between PIU and academic engagement differ between female and male adolescents.BackgroundProblematic internet use (PIU) is an important health issue for adolescents. It has been found to be related to severe impairment in their interpersonal relationships (e.g., parent–child relationships) and academic outcomes (e.g., academic engagement), particularly during the COVID‐19 pandemic.MethodA national survey was conducted in diverse regions of the Chinese mainland, and a total of 2,688 adolescents between 10 and 19 years old (52.8% girls, Mage = 14.06 ± 2.47) participated in the study. Correlation and mediation analyses were conducted and were stratified by gender.ResultsMultigroup analysis indicated that PIU was similarly and positively associated with father– and mother–adolescent conflict in adolescent boys and girls, whereas only father–adolescent conflict was negatively related to boys' academic engagement and only mother–adolescent conflict was negatively related to girls' academic engagement.ConclusionThese results support the same‐gender matching model in parent–adolescent conflict and expand the same‐gender effect to Chinese culture.ImplicationsThese findings have important implications for understanding the mechanisms of how adolescent PIU impedes academic engagement through parent–adolescent conflict in father–son, father–daughter, mother–son, and mother–daughter dyads, indicating that family interventions focused on father–son and mother–daughter relationships may largely facilitate adolescents' academic engagement.
Work–family conflict, educational involvement, and adolescent academic engagement during COVID‐19: An investigation of developmental differences
In: Family relations, Band 72, Heft 4, S. 1491-1510
ISSN: 1741-3729
AbstractObjectiveIn this research, we examine the mediating effect of educational involvement between parental work–family conflict and adolescent academic engagement during COVID‐19, as well as the differences among developmental stages.BackgroundOnline learning during the COVID‐19 lockdown created challenges for adolescent academic engagement. One of the toughest challenges was that parents experienced increased work–family conflict, making it difficult for them to be involved in adolescent education. In this context, it is essential to understand the impact of parental work–family conflict on adolescent academic engagement.MethodA total of 886 dual‐income families participated in the study. Mothers and fathers completed the questionnaire, including questions regarding work–family conflict and educational involvement. Adolescents completed an academic engagement scale.ResultsThe structural equation model in the total sample showed that parental educational involvement mediated the effect of maternal work–family conflict on adolescent academic engagement. In addition, paternal educational involvement mediated the effect of paternal work–family conflict on adolescent academic engagement. Multigroup analysis indicated the impact of work–family conflict only existed in middle and late adolescence, and mother played a more important role in late adolescence.ConclusionThe study results confirmed the mediating role of parental educational involvement between the relationship of paternal work–family conflict and adolescent academic engagement. Furthermore, this relationship may vary for families with an adolescent at different developmental stages.

Coparenting and Adolescent Academic Engagement: The Mediating Role of Parent–Child Communication Among a National Sample of Chinese Families
In: Child & family social work
ISSN: 1365-2206
ABSTRACTThe relationship and related mediating mechanism between parental coparenting and adolescent academic engagement have yet to be elucidated during the pandemic. The present study is set to investigate the relationship between parental coparenting and adolescent academic engagement within Chinese families. Then it examines the mediating effects of parent–child communications in relationships. As a part of the national online survey in China, fathers, mothers and adolescents from 700 families across the country participated in the online survey. Both parents reported their coparenting support and conflict, while adolescents rated the level of open and problematic parent–child communication and their own academic engagement. Paternal coparenting conflict was related to adolescent academic engagement through both open and problematic communications. Paternal and maternal coparenting support was related to adolescent academic engagement through the mediating effect of open communication. Maternal coparenting conflict was related to adolescent academic engagement through problematic communication. Moreover, paternal coparenting support was positively directly related to adolescent academic engagement in the overall model. The research findings supported the effects of parental coparenting on adolescent academic engagement through the mediating effects of open and problematic parent–child communication. Paternal coparenting support had a greater impact on adolescent academic engagement.
Work and family conflicts, depressive symptoms and coparenting conflict behaviours: An interdependent approach
In: Child & family social work
ISSN: 1365-2206
AbstractThis study aims to investigate the relationships between work and family conflicts, specifically work‐to‐family and family‐to‐work conflicts, parental depressive symptoms and coparenting conflict behaviours during the COVID‐19 pandemic. This national survey study involved the participation of 830 families in mainland China, including fathers, mothers and adolescents. Fathers and mothers provided self‐reports on their experiences of work‐to‐family conflicts, family‐to‐work conflicts and depressive symptoms. Meanwhile, adolescents reported their perceptions of coparenting conflict behaviours exhibited by both fathers and mothers. The Actor‐Partner Interdependence Mediation Model was employed to analyse these relationships. In the Actor‐Partner Interdependence Mediation Model, paternal family‐to‐work conflicts were found to be positively associated with both paternal and maternal coparenting conflict behaviours, mediated through paternal depressive symptoms. Similarly, maternal family‐to‐work conflicts were positively linked to both paternal and maternal coparenting conflict behaviours, mediated through maternal depressive symptoms. Additionally, paternal family‐to‐work conflicts exhibited a direct positive relationship with both paternal and maternal coparenting conflict behaviours. However, paternal work‐to‐family conflicts demonstrated a direct negative association with paternal coparenting conflict behaviours. This study sheds light on the complex interconnectedness between work and family conflicts, parental depressive symptoms and coparenting conflict behaviours during the COVID‐19 pandemic. The findings highlight the importance of addressing work and family conflicts in understanding and managing coparenting dynamics, particularly during challenging times such as a pandemic. Such insights can inform interventions and support systems to promote healthier coparenting relationships and family well‐being.
