ABSTRACTObjective:To establish an association between patient personality traits and potential willingness to undergo various orthodontic treatments.Materials and Methods:One hundred adolescent individuals aged 12–16 years completed an anonymous electronic questionnaire via Survey Monkey. The 24-item questionnaire contained three major sections: patient demographics, a modified Big Five Inventory (BFI)-10 personality index, and a willingness to undergo treatment assessment. Multiple-variable linear regression analyses were used to determine the associations among age, gender, ethnicity, and the five personality traits simultaneously with willingness to undergo treatment. Statistical significance was set at P ≤ .05.Results:Ninety-six of the 100 individuals were included in the statistical analysis. Age, ethnicity, and gender failed to correlate with potential willingness to undergo orthodontic treatment. Several personality dimensions within the modified BFI-10 (agreeableness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism) were significantly associated with willingness to undergo various orthodontic treatments (P ≤ .05). Agreeableness demonstrated positive correlations with five treatment modalities, while both conscientiousness and neuroticism exhibited negative associations with a single treatment modality. Openness and extraversion were the only personality dimensions that failed to associate with any of the treatment modalities. Four of the nine treatment modalities had no association with patient demographics or a patient's personality dimensions.Conclusions:Personality traits are useful in predicting a patient's potential willingness to participate in various orthodontic treatments. The agreeableness dimension provided the most utility in predicting patient willingness. Age, ethnicity, and gender were not significant in predicting patient willingness.

The study investigates a possibility of multidimensionality of a construct of willingness to disclose personal information (WTD). Willingness or unwillingness to disclose personal information has been a widely studied phenomenon as personal data is becoming increasingly important for many industries including marketing. Most of these studies treat the willingness to disclose personal information as a homogenous construct. In many cases it is measured by providing a number of personal information items and asking about the willingness to share them. Although recently there have been studies that find possible multidimensionality of the construct, most of them do not further elaborate this possibility. Therefore, we have adopted a scale used in many previous studies and made an attempt to test the hypotheses that would base the argument regarding the multidimensionality of this construct or even the possibility to consider several separate variables and constructs aimed at measuring the willingness to disclose personal data. This was achieved by using three antecedents of the willingness to disclose personal data – the perceived regulatory effectiveness, privacy awareness and disposition to value privacy – and comparing how they interact with different types of the willingness. This allowed to assess different relationship patterns between the antecedents and possible dimensions of the willingness to disclose personal information. We have employed Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis to check the homogeneity of the willingness to disclose personal information and Structural Equation Modelling to test the patterns of the relations. We have found that there is more than one separate dimension of WTD which means it could not be treated as a homogenous construct. Factorial analysis distinguishes three types of the willingness linked with three types of data: the willingness to disclose personal data that includes individual facts (profile data), social networking data and online browsing/purchasing data. The conclusion of multidimensionality is also supported by the differences in relationship patterns observed between the antecedents and the willingness to disclose personal information.

This study suggests that, in addition to willingness, ability is a relevant and important dimension of self-service technology (SST) acceptance and, going beyond prior studies' exclusive focus on willingness, develops an SST acceptance model that captures both consumer ability and willingness to use such technologies. Previous research on consumer acceptance of SSTs has focused primarily on consumers' willingness, while neglecting their ability – this is evident in many SST studies investigating adoption intentions. However, using an SST often requires skills and some level of confidence. Drawing upon the ability–willingness framework, this study adopts a cross-sectional field survey approach to recruit real consumers using self-checkout technology at a supermarket. Results from structural equation modelling based on 281 consumers highlight the relevance and importance of ability, and show that consumers' willingness and ability to use SSTs are determined by different factors.

A New Ecological Paradigm scale was used as a measurement tool to determine consumer perception of the environment through the context of red seabream (Pagrus major) aquaculture and the use of copper-alloy nets. To identify the underlying dimension of consumer perception, exploratory factor analysis was conducted, which showed that consumer perception comprised two dimensions—nature and balance, and human dominance—yielding two indicators as independent variables for a contingent valuation method estimation. The estimation results indicate that demographic variables and one consumer perception variable (i.e., the human dominance indicator) are insignificant. However, the economic variable, one consumer perception variable (i.e., nature and balance), and seafood preference are significant. Finally, willingness-to-pay was estimated for sustainable aquaculture products by comparing the mean willingness-to-pay within New Ecological Paradigm-level groups.

This research investigates how online customer reviews affect consumer decision-making (willingness to buy) during their first purchase of services or products. By using brand trust as a mediating variable in the relationship between online customers’ reviews and consumers’ willingness to buy, data was collected through a quasi-experiment approach, and analysed using structural equation modelling. 240 returns were used in this study (a response rate of approximately 70%). The findings demonstrated that the “reliability dimension” of brand trust has a mediating effect on online customer reviews’ valence to willingness to buy, while the “intentionality dimension” had little effect. Furthermore, the findings also suggested that online customer reviews generated by in-group and out-group reviewers have little effect on purchasing decisions when viewing the reviews from an independent source. These results suggest that marketers should focus more on managing negative online customer reviews that have a damaging effect on brand trust.

The world is guided by power politics. The power politics is the core process for regulating human behaviour activised in the society. The society is regulated and maintained with the provision of law and order sanctioned by power politics. Everybody has strong willingness for gaining power for the fulfilment of the self-interest and also for the betterment of the society. But from the view point of human nature, self-interest is more stronger than the interest in the society. The objective of this article is to analyze power politics for the fulfilment of human interest based on the struggle for power. Journal of Political Science Vol.7(1) 2004 20-28

This paper proposes and tests a model of a critical union commitment dimension: "Willingness to work" for the union. Organization and social psychological theories, along with previous empirical research, are used to develop the conceptual model, measures, and predictions. These predictions are tested via a two stage regression model, using data from a large sample of Swedish professional union members. As predicted, both attitudinal commitment and subjective norms are critical influences on the individual's willingness to work on behalf of the union.

SUMMARY Auditor independence, which has certainly been one of the most addressed topics in auditing literature, is a complex and ambiguous construct that can be analyzed along two dimensions. The first dimension, organizational independence, relates to auditors' willingness to act in accordance with professional standards and to report errors found during the audit. The second dimension, operational independence, relates to auditors' capability to work diligently and effectively in order to detect material anomalies. Surprisingly, “much of the debate has [so far] focused on the former,” while the latter has remained largely “under-discussed” (Power 1999, 132), if not ignored. In this paper, based on ethnographic data and semi-structured interviews, we examine the realities of auditors' operational independence and discuss the practical and theoretical implications of our findings. Our evidence suggests that auditors' operational independence is both unsettled in practice and impossible to achieve through institutional measures alone. This view may challenge orthodox and regulatory conceptions of audit, but the smooth conduct of an audit engagement largely depends on the auditees' desire to cooperate. In order to arouse and maintain this desire, audit team members resort to a number of relational strategies that aim at securing their capability to work with diligence and efficacy, but that can also undermine their willingness to take enforcement action when necessary. Audit, therefore, appears to be a complex balancing act between capability and willingness. Ultimately, it is shown that because official arrangements designed to guarantee operational independence are unlikely to be effective, the reality of auditor independence remains highly uncertain and needs to be constantly negotiated and renegotiated in the field.

AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF VERNON SWEETIN, for the Doctor of Philosophy degree, DEPARTMENT OF MARKETING, COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, presented on June 23, 2010, at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. TITLE: WILLINGNESS TO REWARD OR PUNISH BRANDS AS MODERATORS FOR THE BRAND PERSONALITY DIMENSION OF SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY MAJOR PROFESSOR: Dr. John H. Summey Social responsibility has received empirical support for its addition to the Brand Personality construct. The objectives of this study were first, to compare and contrast attitudinal reactions to varying descriptions of Social Responsibility as a Brand Personality dimension and second, to examine the data for possible moderation effects with the consumers' Willingness to Reward construct and the Willingness to Punish construct, with the latter as a proposed new construct for how consumers' respond to the Brand Dimension, Social Responsibility. The study tested 4 forms of social responsibility in a between-subjects factorial design. The study found that the subjects in the socially responsible condition had a difference in the Willingness to Reward construct when compared to the subjects in the socially irresponsible condition and the control condition. The study's support for the existence of the new moderator Willingness to Punish was found coupled with confirmatory support for Willingness to Reward as a moderator.

Background: Innovation is widely recognized to be instrumental for the sustained competitiveness of businesses, including family businesses. However, many family firms are unable to achieve innovation on their own, necessitating the shift towards collaborative innovation. Yet, due to the overlap of family and business, innovation in family firms is characterized by the so-called“innovation paradox” where family firms usually possess a greater ability to innovate but lack the willingness to do so. Accordingly, considerable attention has been given to the factors that affect the willingness of family firms in an attempt to understand and possibly resolve the innovation paradox. Purpose: The purpose of the present study is to explore how the degree of family involvement in the top management team (TMT) influences the family firm’s willingness to engage in collaborative innovation and how that influences the preferred type of collaborative innovation. By exploring the link between the degree of family involvement in TMT and the willingness in the context of collaborative innovation, our study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the innovation paradox associated with family businesses, and thereby offer important insights to practitioners, both from the family and non-family perspective. Method: Our methods were based on qualitative research with an exploratory research design and multiple case-study methods of eleven family firms. Through semi-structured interviews with both family and non-family TMT members, we gained insights into the role of family influence on family firms. We also used a cross-case analysis to compare the cases and indicate similarities and differences in order to draw our conclusions. Conclusion: The results of the study show that the degree of family involvement in the top management teams influences the family firms’ willingness to engage in collaborative innovation. Depending on the degree of family involvement as represented by the respective configurations, five patterns of influence manifestations (IM) are identified.

Customer's ever increasing bargaining power makes it particularly important that practitioners and researchers more thoroughly understand the complex nature of customer commitment. Not surprisingly, however, although the construct of commitment has emerged as one of the key constructs in relationship marketing and has been widely studied in literature, there has been very little agreement on the conceptualisation of the construct. Building upon relationship marketing and organisational behaviour literature, the aim of this research is to extend our understanding of the nature of customer commitment by developing a three-dimensional customer commitment model relaying on commitment theory from the organisational behaviour literature; affective desire-based (AC), calculative cost-based (CC), and normative obligation-based (NC). Relationships among the commitment dimensions and relationships with a number of loyalty relational outcomes, namely, intention to stay (ITS), word of mouth (WOM), and willingness to pay (WTP) were investigated in this study. Using survey questionnaire distributed among customers of cell phone services (N=525), the data was analysed by structural equation modeling (SEM) and then additional analysis was employed to further demystify the complexity of the commitment concept. The results suggest that AC is the dominant source that generates customer loyalty, in line with the state of literature. Both cost-based and surprisingly obligation-based have shown detrimental effects on maintaining and developing the customer-service provider relationship. Additional analysis with various scenarios was implemented using mean split as cut score for high/low commitment dimensions. The findings suggest NC turns to have important positive role on relational outcomes when both AC and CC are below the mean split. When both AC and CC are high NC negatively affect at least ITS but at the same time make a clear positive effect on WTP. The findings can be instructional for identifying how firms can bend various marketing sources to secure more loyal customers to the service provider.

The purpose of this study is to develop and empirically test a theoretical framework that captures
the impact of corporate branding dimensions on customers' willingness to share brand content
online . Despite the increasing popularity of online communication, factors critical to such a new
communication medium remain largely unknown. Why a content got viral and others didn't?.
This dissertation examines two of the critical factors, namely corporate branding dimensions and
customers' motivations to share brand content online. Conceptualizing the act of sharing brand
content as a special case of a more general communication behavior, we identify four potential
motivations: (1) the need to be part of a group, (2) the need to be different, (3) the need to be
altruistic, and (4) the need for control. in the same time we identify six corporate branding
dimensions that had been predicted to have an influence on customers' motivation to share brand
content online: (1) corporate association, (2) corporate activities, (3) corporate values, (4)
corporate personality, (5) corporate functional benefits, and (6) corporate symbolic benefits.
Using an online survey, Cross-sectional data were collected from 323 customers who are active
on social media websites. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypotheses of the
framework developed for the study. we examine the relationship between corporate branding
dimensions and customer's motivation to share brand content online and how this relationship
affects the frequency of sharing brand content online. Results show that customers, who are more
in need for control, tend to be more influential by favorable corporate association and strong
functional benefits, as a result they become more willing to share brand content online. another
finding shows that customers who are more altruistic, tend to be more affected by ethical and
social corporate activities and distinctive corporate values, as a result of this relationship they
are more willing to share brand content online.Este estudo tem por finalidade desenvolver e testar empiricamente um enquadramento teórico capaz de perceber o impacto das dimensões de uma imagem de marca na motivação dos consumidores em partilhar conteúdo dessa marca online. Apesar do aumento de popularidade da comunicação online, os fatores que influenciam esse processo ainda não são inteiramente conhecidos. Porque é quecertos conteúdos se tornam virais e outros não? Esta dissertação examina dois dos fatores críticos, nomeadamente as dimensões de uma marca corporativa e a motivação dos consumidores para partilhar conteúdo dessa marca online. Partindo do princípio que o ato de partilhar conteúdo de uma marca online é um caso particular da utilização dos meios de comunicação, identificamos quatro potenciais motivações: (1) a necessidade de fazer parte de um grupo, (2) a necessidade de ser diferente, (3) a necessidade de ser altruísta, (4) a necessidade de ter controlo. Ao mesmo tempo identificamos seis dimensões de uma marca corporativa, que previmos virem ter influência na motivação dos consumidores para partilhar conteúdo dessa marca online: (1) as associações corporativas, (2) as atividades corporativas, (3) os valores corporativos, (4) a personalidade corporativa, (5) os benefícios funcionais corporativos e (6) os benefícios simbólicos corporativos. Através de um questionário online, foram colhidas informações transversais de 323 consumidores ativos em redes sociais na internet. Foi utilizado um modelo de equações estruturais para testar as hipóteses propostaspelo estudo. Examinamos a relação entre as dimensões de uma marca corporativa e as motivações dos consumidores para partilhar conteúdo dessa marca online, e como essa relação afeta a frequência com que essa partilha é feita. Os resultados mostram que consumidores com necessidade de ter controlo são mais influenciados por uma associação corporativa favorável e benefícios funcionais corporativos fortes, e nesse enquadramento, ficam mais motivados para partilhar conteúdo dessas marcas nas redes sociais online. Outros resultados mostram que consumidores altruístas tendem a ser mais influenciados por valores corporativos distintos e pelas atividades corporativas de âmbitos éticos e sociais, e dessa relação resulta um consumidor mais motivado a partilhar conteúdo dessas marcas online.

The chapter explores reflections on the practice of letter-writing, with equal attention to instructional handbooks (esp. Demetrius’ Περὶ ἑρμηνείας, Iulius Victor’s Rhetorica, Pseudo-Demetrius’ Τύποι ἐπιστολικοί, Pseudo-Libanius’ Ἐπιστολιμαῖοι χαρακτῆρες, and Erasmus of Rotterdam’s De conscribendis epistolis) and the meta-generic statements that letter-writers routinely embed in their correspondence (with a special focus on Cicero, Ovid, Seneca, and Pliny the Younger). In both types of sources, what one might call the social dimension of style registers as a primary concern: in order for the letter to fulfil its purpose, namely to generate a special bond between sender and recipient, the chosen idiolect has to be ‘appropriate’ (πρέπον/aptum) to the interpersonal relationship and its specific circumstances and exigencies. Shared stylistic values and the willingness of the letter-writer to adjust his character to that of the recipient generate a sense of community between the correspondents.

Nichola Khan provides the introduction to this book, by bringing into conversation some prominent figures, each of whom has been engaged with issues related to violence in Karachi for at least one decade, some many more. The collection addresses some perennial global, national, and city crises which have precipitated waves of violence in Karachi, and it highlights an increase in critical voices and commentary alongside a greater willingness by publishers to take on the controversies these phenomena entail. First, it combines the diverse specialist insights, generated over time, of key academics, publishers, journalists, activists, and writers; thereby it differs from the usual academic “study” of a “type” of violence, group, or political party in the city. A second focus is on personal and professional engagement, and on ways each dimension might inform the other. Third, the book brings these aspects to a public engagement agenda, encouraging a shift outwards from the purely academic realm towards the creation of wider publics and counterpublics engaged in cultural and political commentary, and collective collaborations for change.

Subjective well-being in economics relies on more expansive notions of utility than do conventional economics approaches and provides metrics to assess the income and nonincome dimensions of well-being. The metrics are well suited to questions where revealed preferences provide limited information, such as the welfare effects of macroeconomic arrangements individuals are powerless to change, and on behaviors that result from lack of choice or addiction and self-control problems. Current scholarship distinguishes between hedonic well-being, which encompasses daily experience and quality of life, and evaluative well-being, which encompasses well-being over the life course, including opportunity and life fulfillment (eudemonia). Some research aims to understand the causal properties of subjective well-being, and finds that higher levels are associated with better health, labor market performance, and willingness to invest in the future. Despite the contribution this approach can make and the efforts of a number of governments to utilize it, methodological challenges remain.

The mass imprisonment of over 110,000 people of Japanese ancestry during World War II was one of the most egregious violations of civil liberties in US history. Removed from their homes on the temperate Pacific Coast, Japanese Americans spent the war years in ten desolate camps in the nation’s interior. Although scholars and commentators acknowledge the harsh environmental conditions of these camps, they have turned their attention to the social, political, or legal dimensions of this story. Nature Behind Barbed Wire shifts the focus to the natural world and explores how it shaped the experiences of Japanese Americans and federal officials who worked for the War Relocation Authority (WRA), the civilian agency that administered the camps. The complexities of the natural world both enhanced and constrained the WRA’s power and provided Japanese Americans with opportunities to redefine the terms and conditions of their confinement. Even as the environment compounded their feelings of despair and outrage, they also learned that their willingness (or lack thereof) to transform and adapt to the natural world could help them endure and even contest their incarceration. Ultimately, this book demonstrates that the Japanese American incarceration was fundamentally an environmental story. Japanese Americans and WRA officials negotiated the terms of confinement with each other and with a dynamic natural world.

Abstract The Euro and sovereign debt crises since 2008, as well as the following Great Recession, have challenged the strength of European solidarity between EU citizens and member states. This chapter analyses the strength of European solidarity within East Central Europe and other European countries in two dimensions: citizens’ willingness to support indebted European countries financially (European fiscal solidarity) and their willingness to reduce welfare differences among EU member states (European territorial solidarity). The analyses are based on a comparative survey conducted in 13 European countries in 2016. Results show that citizens displayed a notably high level of European solidarity in both dimensions. While ECE countries showed slightly lower approval rates for European fiscal solidarity, their demand for European territorial solidarity is average. However, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland do not form a unique cluster standing out on these topics, making further policies of European integration possible.

A brief literature review, rationale and significance, and methodology are discussed, and a conceptual framework based on the relationships between the stated variables is adopted in this empirical study to demonstrate linkages and insights. The findings demonstrate that the “reliability dimension” of brand trust had a mediating effect on online customer reviews' valence to willingness to buy, while the “intentionality dimension” of brand trust had little effect. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that online customer reviews generated by in-group and out-group reviewers have little effect on purchasing decisions (willingness to buy).

In the new dynamic economic environment where supply chains increasingly face constant change and instability, the better supply chain planning and management enabled by advanced data management systems provides enhanced value proposition for customers resulting in improved profitability for firms along the supply chain. However, achieving such high quality level of supply chain visibility is not an easy task requiring technological capability, organizational willingness and data quality management intensively demanding attention from both managers and scholars. Therefore, the chapter begins with an overview of the role of information systems in supply chain management followed by a discussion regarding the role of information quality in successful supply chain interactions. Data quality management in terms of strategy and data governance is then reviewed. Finally, data quality tools complementing strategy dimension of data quality management are studied.

A large number of empirical studies of in-group sympathy and helpfulness suggest that the sheer strength of a person’s national attachment should increase her solidarity with her co-nationals. This relationship is likely to be independent of how she conceives the content of that identity and the extent to which she believes her co-nationals share this commitment. The direction of this link, moreover, might look different depending on whether the dimension of national attachment at hand is national identity, national pride, or national chauvinism. The chapter utilizes survey data from the Netherlands (LISS), arguably a more relevant context for liberal nationalists than the more typically studied cases of the USA and Canada. The Dutch demonstrate significant relationships between national attachment and support for egalitarianism, even when controlling for ideology. National identity turns out to be consistently related to more willingness to share resources with our co-nationals, whilst national pride shows a negative link to redistributive solidarity.

Previous research universally recognized the pivotal role of touch in consumer behavior and considered it as one of the critical factors limiting the adoption of online shopping. In fact, in digital environments, consumers can rely only on the product visual representation and/or written descriptions of its characteristics. Starting from this evidence, several authors have underlined how the provision of a description of a product's tactile characteristics may positively affect consumer behavior. However, previous contributions have devoted little attention to the differential influence of online sources of information on consumers' willingness to buy when a description of a product's tactile characteristics is provided. The research presented in this chapter aims to cover this gap, by demonstrating through two experimental studies that, when a description of the tactile characteristics of the product is provided, the information given by the users of a web-community increases consumer's willingness to buy the product.

One of the major factors that aids in economic growth, sustainability, and poverty reduction of a developing nation is agriculture. With the passage of time, contribution of agriculture in GDP seems decreasing and youths' involvement towards agricultural entrepreneurship has been increasing in Nepal. Agro-entrepreneurship is rising due to technological innovation and transformation in production process that will provide higher output aiding in income generation. This study aims to identify youths' willingness to accept agriculture entrepreneurship and provincial role for its development. This study is based on explanatory research design with 324 samples from farmers of Bedkot municipality. Both primary and secondary data are used for the study based on a structured questionnaire. Tobit model has been used to generate results, along with several variables based on descriptive and inferential analysis. The study depicts that agriculture information has positive significance with overall awareness of youths' willingness to accept agriculture entrepreneurship. Likewise, youths' acceptance of agro-entrepreneurship is significant to annual income, land size, market information centre (MIC) as well. Training and awareness of agricultural entrepreneurship need to be focused more by policy-makers. This is one of the first investigations conducted to identify the various dimensions of youths' willingness to accept agriculture entrepreneurship in the Nepalese context.

The adoption of customizing features is expected to provide a strategic advantage to e-retailers that want to move forward in a competitive environment. The goal of this chapter is to identify a variety of aspects of consumer perceptions on e-customization for apparel shopping and to understand what can motivate the willingness of consumers to participate in the value creation process. A survey was conducted using developed customization websites for the ordering of a pair of jeans. Data were collected from 213 female college students in the U.S. Their statements after experiencing the customization process were analyzed and categorized into three dimensions of benefits (usefulness, convenience, and fun/enjoyment) and five dimensions of costs (risk, limitation, self-assurance, time consumption, and unappealing) of e-customization. Based on the findings, two discussion topics were drawn: why people are willing or unwilling to customize apparel online. Insights are generated and future research directions are discussed.

The conclusion reflects on the connection between airline travel and empire, race and racism, and the politics of knowledge. It takes stock of how racial segregation and the ordinary sky came together in the making of the commercial aviation industry. More specifically, it looks at the complex relationship between air route formation, imperial projects, and racial hierarchies. It hones in on the systematic exclusion of the colonial Caribbean from the development of global air networks and the narration of early airline history. It ends by considering how fragments, love, imagination, and affect, as well as a willingness to embrace uncertainty, provide for a more nuanced understanding of the dimensions of power that inform everyday airline travel.

Developments in health sector increased the expectations of patients. In order to meet these expectations, hospitals attach importance to their service quality. Although hospitals increase the quality of service, the perceptions of service users become more important. It was aimed to determine the quality of service and expectation of patients and their relatives who applied to four state hospitals in Istanbul by Servqual Scale.
In accordance with this purpose, the relationship between the dimensions of "physical properties", "reliability", "willingness - enthusiasm", "assurance" and "cross-empathy" quality of service and socio - demographic characteristics of participants were statistically analyzed. During sampling process, 358 participants who applied to physical therapy rehabilitation, surgery and internal medicine departments were reached via randomized sampling method.
One-way ANOVA and independent sample t-test and chi-square test were applied to analyze the differences in satisfaction level. As a result of the evaluations, it was determined that four state hospitals did not meet the expectations in terms of both the total service quality and service quality sub-dimensions of the patients and their relatives.
