People are social animals; thus, social influence can significantly affect people's behavior. Conformity has been discussed for years as it's a great example of how social pressure can affect a person's thoughts and behaviors. Scientists have carried out a bunch of experiments to research conformity. Asch's experiment, for example, shows how social pressure can influence a person's decision to make the right choice. Conformity can also result in a series of effects and problems. Bystander effects, for example, show how informational social influence can affect people's behavior. Blind obedience shows how conformity can cause crimes and disasters. This paper doesn't promote social determinism but shows the relationship between social pressure and people's moral standing. Several experiments and studies and related social events will also be included. It's concluded that it is possible that our morality is not just a matter of goodwill but also the result of conformity.

To explore the law of megaproject social responsibility behavior (MSRB) among internal organizations under institutional pressure, this paper presents a theoretical and empirical study to investigate how institutional pressure affects MSRB through the mediating role of organizational social responsibility cognition and the mediating roles of the communication mechanism and relationship strength based on new institutional sociology. Based on a total of 147 responses from a broad questionnaire survey, structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the proposed hypotheses. The research results show that institutional pressure has a promoting effect on MSRB, and organizational social responsibility cognition mediates the relationship between institutional pressure and MSRB. Additionally, the communication mechanism and relationship strength have no effect on the relationship between institutional pressures and MSRB. The research results provide a new theoretical foundation for the analysis of MSRB and practical suggestions for policymakers on the governance of MSRB.

The proposed research aims to explore the influences of authority power and social proof while considering personality characteristics in a post-pandemic virtual environment. This study will be conducted online as a conceptual replication of a recent experimental study (Danay et al., 2016) that was conducted in person and compared social influence strategies drawn from two of psychology’s most classic studies. This replication will include several personality factors. Scripts, language, inflection, and tone will imitate the classic Milgram experiments of the 1960s to display authority power, while a virtual version of the classic Asch line study will mimic social proof (Asch, 1955; Milgram, 1963). Participants will choose between Milgram’s authoritative commands and Asch’s intense social pressure. Prior to entering the live experiment participants will complete the Big 5 Inventory (BFI; McCrae & Costa, 2003), Locus of Control Scale (LCS; Rotter, 1966), and Adult Attachment Questionnaire (Simpson, et al., 1996). The two social forces (authority vs. social pressure) will be compared during the proposed study. The hypotheses posed are as follows: H1) It is expected that a majority of participants will be influenced by social proof rather than authority. H2) Agreeableness and openness will negatively correlate with authority and positively correlate with social proof. H3) External locus of control will positively correlate with authority. H4) Individuals with an avoidant attachment style will adhere to authority while anxiously attached individuals will follow social proof. This research may provide insight into forces that influence an individual’s judgment in a virtual environment.

This article presents an analysis of the relationship between psychosocial risks, highlighting the management of the intervention, a theoretical framework that underpins some of the factors analysed in the doctoral research, which aims to assess the working conditions in the context of the action of first-line interveners in social reception. To obtain these data, a questionnaire was applied to obtain information on the perception of social workers in the various aspects of their professional daily lives that influence their health and well-being. It is concluded that it is necessary to enable professionals with stress-coping strategies, such as engagement - by analysing positive experiences and conditions favourable to well-being in the workplace (Extremera et.al., 2005; Gonçalves, 2020); coping (adaptation to circumstances and situations); supervision; triggering (good) social support; as well as working and applying in practice individual characteristics and physiological release mechanisms, complemented by a resilient posture and locus of control, adaptation to change, overcoming obstacles and resistance to pressure (Gonçalves, 2020, p.28; Fernandez-Barrocal, 2021).

This study aims to investigate the influence of social pressures on the academic performance of Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) students at NU-Nazareth. Students may experience various types of social pressure, including peer pressure, family pressure, and academic pressure, which can impact their academic performance and well-being. Social pressure is the influence exerted on an individual by peers, family, or society to conform to certain behaviors, leading to affect their motivation, focus, and overall success in school. Insufficient literature on social pressures experienced by HUMSS students, their impact on academic performance, and coping mechanisms are the reasons why the researchers conducted this study. The study will be utilizing qualitative research employing a phenomenological approach to identify how external factors affect a student's academic success, explore the different ways in which social pressures impact academic performance, and know the coping mechanism that HUMSS students use to manage social pressure in order to achieve their academic goals. Using thematic analysis, the findings of the study were: 1.) HUMSS Students Experienced Family Pressure as the Most Common Type of Social Pressure Driven by High Standards and Expectations by Parents; 2.) The Influence of Social Pressure to the Academic Performance of HUMSS Students; 3.) HUMSS Students' Strategies for Managing and Coping with Social Pressures. Based on the study's findings, it is crucial for parents to engage in open communication with their children, balancing aspirations with realistic expectations, and encouraging dialogue about academic goals and challenges. Moreover, future research should delve into the potential long-term effects of social pressure on students' academic, physical, and personal well-being beyond their time in educational institutions, employing both qualitative and quantitative approaches for a comprehensive understanding in sociology and psychology.

Whether a person’s belief or action is the result of nature or nurture is a classical debate in the realm of psychology. The source of morality is one of the most heated topics of this grand debate. Some philosophers and psychologists argue that morality is the result of nature and instinct. Although many of their arguments are sound, one cannot neglect the role played by society regarding the shape of one’s morality. This research aims to take a close examination of the relationship between the moral position of an individual and social influence. To accomplish this end, this research combines the methods of psychology and the duality of moral dilemmas. More specifically, this research reviews, modifies, and combines Asch’s conformity experiment, the Third Wave Experiment, and the trolly problem. Currently, this experiment remains at the designing stage and specific details future may be altered.

The old paradigm in technology adoption focuses on the technical implementation and uptake of innovation. A new paradigm has emerged that considers the social, cultural, and political context in which innovation is implemented and addresses the enablers and constraints to its effective diffusion and utilisation. To that end, we apply the institutional theory as a social lens to examine the diffusion of B2B technology in Thailand. This study posits that mimetic, coercive and normative pressures may influence B2B technology utilisation and performance. Data were collected from firms that have adopted B2B technology in the tourism industry. The Partial Least Squares method was used for data analysis. Results show that normative and coercive pressures had a significant influence on firms’ utilisation of B2B technology, while normative pressure had a significant influence on performance. We conclude by hypothesising that only through addressing the social factors can innovation achieve ‘real’ diffusion and effectiveness.

Auditing is considered a stressful occupation as the job is always characterized by heavy workloads, many deadlines, time pressure, social pressure and commitment towards the organization. Public auditors are often under pressure to produce quality audit, and yet may be under serious work pressure or continually dealing with auditees in stressful situations. Work stress faced by public auditors also may lead to mental and physical distress which resulted to decrease in job performance. This study examines which potential factors of pressure that have a significant relationship to government auditors’ job performance. Factors to be test in this study are work overload, time pressure and social influence pressure. This current study contributes information and ideas to the management and academician in the theoretical and practical aspects. The respondents in this study are 203 government auditorsfrom government auditors in National Audit Department of Malaysia. The result of this study shows that there is no significant relationship on work overload to auditors’ job performance. However the result of this study found that factor of time pressure shown a positive significant relation on auditors’ job performance, while social influence pressure shown a negative significant relationship on auditors’ job performance.

Social connections shape our behaviour because of peer pressure and social contagion. This phenomenon is amplified in online networks by particularly influential individuals: influencers. Although this concept originated in social media, recent research shows how influencers can also exist in games and affect players' long-term retention. Prolonged retention caused by influencers could benefit gameful systems, especially if the system's goal is positive behavioural change. Retention is desirable because it can aid in internalizing new habits. Therefore, we investigated retention influencers' presence within a location-based persuasive gamified system (Play&Go) and their influence on other behaviours (i.e., the pursuit of a gamification goal), via social network analysis techniques. Results show how retention influencers exist in Play&Go and how studying different influence types (which push the systems' goals) may lead to different influencer groups. Our findings emphasize the importance of social mechanics in location-based gamification and discuss the value of understanding a player community to improve game design.

Green human resource management (GHRM) is bringing positive transformations in business and society, as well as challenges for hotels. Drawing from social cognitive theory (SCT), this study examined green HRM with environmental and social performance. Significantly, this paper also used organizational green culture as a mediation variable. This empirical study employed a quantitative research method. Data were collected from 155 employees working in Pakistan’s hotels. The results demonstrate that green HRM (t-statistic value = 9.676, p-value = 0.000) is positively related to organizational green culture. In addition, organizational green culture (t-statistic value = 11.254, p-value = 0.000, t-statistic value = 16.882, p-value = 0.000) has a significant effect on environmental and social performance. Moreover, organizational green culture fully mediated the relationship between green HRM and environmental performance (t-statistic value = 5.444, p-value = 0.000). Finally, organizational green culture fully mediated the relationship between green HRM and social performance (t-statistic value = 7.218, p-value = 0.000).

This research aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the influence of social media on judges' decisions in religious blasphemy cases in Indonesia. In the context of the digital era, social media has become the main arena where public opinion is expressed, discussions develop, and information spreads quickly. Cases of religious blasphemy often create waves of controversy and debate on social media, widening their impact in society. This research uses a qualitative approach to analyze how social media influences the judicial process, from its role in shaping public opinion to its possible influence on arguments presented in court. Through analysis of social media content and a study of significant religious blasphemy cases, this research aims to understand the extent to which opinions and pressure generated by social media can influence judges' decisions. It is hoped that the results of the analysis will provide a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by the justice system in facing the pressures and expectations of an increasingly dominant digital space, as well as provide a basis for improving justice policies and practices that are more adaptive to social and digital dynamics.

AbstractMill's On Liberty is centrally concerned with avoiding social tyranny. But Mill's Principle of Liberty defines interfering, in the context of social pressure, as intentionally punishing and it seems to allow speech and actions that critics have thought would conflict with liberty in self-regarding matters. To critics, Mill draws distinctions among social influences where no genuine difference is to be found and he permits more social pressure than can be accepted by someone who values liberty highly. In this article, I explain where and why Mill draws the line he does between permitted and forbidden influences and show the line is coherent and tracks a genuine difference. I also show that although the Principle leaves residual social pressure, Mill has resources besides the Principle that can prevent social influences that threaten individuality while retaining beneficial social influences.

Morality is considered an inherent and personal aspect of human behavior, but the influence of external factors, particularly social pressure, on moral standing remains a subject of debate. By adopting a qualitative-measured approach, about 50 high school or college students were selected randomly as participants for the experiment. They must fill out a survey with a few moral questions determining their view on specific issues. By comparing their responses before and after the seminar, the change in moral standings from participants can be reflected. The result demonstrates that approximately 68% of participants changed their decisions in a public setting compared to a private one. The results strongly suggest that social pressure plays a significant role in altering an individual’s moral standing. The implications of this study call for a deeper understanding of the psychological mechanisms that underscore moral decision-making in the context of societal influences and the potential consequences for community cohesion and individual well-being.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a factor that influences the development and survival of a company. This study aims to analyze several factors that influence disclosure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) by managerial ownership testing, institutional ownership, and public share ownership. The population used is a company registered in the IDX30 index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2015-2017, which amounted to 40 companies. The sampling technique uses a purposive sampling technique. The samples taken are 39 samples that meet the criteria of purposive sampling. Data is obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports (if any). This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that: first, managerial ownership affects the disclosure of corporate social responsibility; second, institutional ownership does not affect the disclosure of corporate social responsibility; and third, public share ownership affects the disclosure of corporate social responsibility. These results implicate that the internal (management) and the external (public) ownership gave pressure to the company to disclose its CSR

Purpose This study aims to examine the potential guest perception of green hotel attributes (GHAs) and the underlying mechanism through which GHA perception influences attitude toward green hotels, intention to stay at green hotels and willingness to pay a premium. It also investigates the moderating roles of personal norms and social norms in the influence of GHA perception on identification and trust toward green hotels. Design/methodology/approach A two-stage survey was used to collect data via Prolific Academic. The authors tested the hypotheses on 521 valid responses using the partial least squares method. Findings The results show that identification and trust mediate the effect of GHA perception on attitude, intention to stay and willingness to pay a premium for green hotels. The authors found a positive interaction effect between GHA perception and personal norms on identification and trust and a negative interaction effect between social norms and GHA perception on trust. The interaction effect of GHA perception and social norms on identification is not significant. Originality/value This study presents an integrated framework for green hotel adoption by examining the potential guest perception of GHAs and explores how it fosters positive guest responses. Findings show that GHA perception positively influences potential guest responses through identification (the personal route) and trust (the social route). This study also simultaneously considers personal norms and social norms, together with the effects of their interactions with GHA perception on identification and trust.

Despite the growing clamour for psychosocial knowledge and the measures held by the state to protect the mental health of minors, there are still minors whose negative emotions simply cannot be attended to. In this paper, in order to understand and respond to underage suicide, it is needed to think about the three main causes that influence underage suicide rates in terms of two sociological theories: family conflict, academic pressure and teacher-student conflict. Mead's proposal that human consciousness influences human behaviour can explain the impact of family conflict, academic pressure and teacher-student conflict on underage suicide rates; underage suicide rates are socially social, cultural and historical contexts in which constructivism arose, influenced and shaped by the three main causes of underage suicide. With an understanding of the root causes of the underage suicide rate, it is possible to consider and implement unique responses to combat the rise in the underage suicide rate. The consciousness of Chinese minors is socially generated and influenced by the historical inheritance brought about by social constructivism. It is also believed that the age of 15-18 is the age when minors are desperate to study and that the pressure from studying eventually becomes. The pressure from studying eventually becomes a conflict between parents and teachers and students, and minors develop a negative psychological consciousness that is eventually acted upon.

The aim in this study was to determine whether or not peer pressure and leisure boredom influenced substance use among adolescents in low-income communities in Cape Town, South Africa. Nonprobability sampling was used to select 291 adolescents aged between 16 and 18 years who were attending schools in 2 low-income communities in Cape Town. The research instruments were the Drug Use Disorders Identification Test, the Resistance to Peer Influence measure, and the Leisure Boredom Scale. Multiple regression analysis showed that the combined influence of peer pressure and leisure boredom predicted substance use among the adolescents. Of the two factors, peer pressure was the stronger predictor of substance use.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to understand the driving forces of corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives in organizations and how these social initiatives influence organizations’ “license to operate” using data from the Ghanaian business environment. Design/methodology/approach This study used purposive sampling with a well-structured questionnaire as a data collection tool. Partial least squares-structural equation modeling was used to study the driving forces of CSR initiatives in organizations and how these social initiatives influence their social license. Findings The findings indicate that CSR initiatives are driven by the normative, mimetic, investors and community pressures. The regulative pressure has no significant effect on CSR initiatives. The authors found no difference between the services and the manufacturing sectors as far as the results are concerned using multi-grouping analysis. Research limitations/implications From the results, the importance of normative, mimetic, investors and community pressures as the driving forces of CSR are established. The finding indicates that CSR demands by suppliers, customers the extent to which organizations perceive their competitors have benefited from initiating CSR are benefiting, the willingness of investors to invest in companies whose CSR activities are best and the opinion on the extent to which the District Assembly and the Chief Executive in the district, the Chiefs, the Churches, the Opinion leaders have significant impact on CSR initiatives. Practical implications The results indicate the need for suppliers and customers to continually demand from corporations to initiate CSR activities as organizations seem to respond to these pressures, and these initiatives are also likely to be mimicked by other organizations in the same industry to enable this drive the social responsibility agenda. Investors and community members are also encouraged to invest and accept, respectively, organizations with very good CSR records to send a signal to companies who see CSR as a cost instead of performance enhancement. Originality/value The work illustrates and provides some insights and builds on the literature in the area of CSR from a developing country’s environment. This is also one of the few works that investigate the driving forces of CSR and social license using the institutional theory based on data from the African business environment.

ABSTRACT We examine whether obedience and conformity pressures generated by superiors (partners) and colleagues within audit firms cause dysfunctional audit behavior in Japan. We also investigate whether high levels of professional and organizational commitment and the personal attributes of auditors mitigate these pressures. The results indicate that obedience pressure can impair the judgments of auditors, whereas conformity pressure does not have a significant influence. The application of a three-dimensional model of commitment and a five-dimensional scale of individual personalities reveals that dysfunctional audit behavior can be mitigated by enhancing affective and normative commitment, and by addressing highly masculine characteristics in individual auditors.

Introduction/Main Objectives: The performance of individuals in organizations is generally evaluated based on their success at achieving targets. Furthermore, the role of the budget has a major effect on individual behavior in the preparation of the budget, by allowing unethical actions (budgetary slack). Background Problems: There are a few studies that measure the difference in the influence of social pressure between superiors and peers on individual’s behavior in the organizational budgeting process. On the other hand, there are inconsistencies in the results of the research into the role of religiosity in the creation of budgetary slack. Novelty: To explain why people are not influenced by social pressures to create budgetary slack, we use the Psychological Reactance Theory. We argue that religiosity is one factor that influences people in making decisions about participative budgeting. Religiosity is believed to be able to influence one's personal values, so it impacts on one's judgment and determination of whether a thing is good or bad. Research Methods: This study uses an experimental research method on 65 undergraduate accounting students and a 2x2 factorial design consisting of two factors, social pressure (obedience pressure and peer pressure) and religiosity (high and low). Finding/Results: The results show that religiosity is proven to play an important role in the budget decision-making process, futhermore it minimizes the occurrence of budgetary slack. Conclusion: Individuals who have high religiosity are proven to be better able to avoid creating budgetary slack compared to individuals who have low religiosity, when receiving pressure from superiors and peers. This result has implications for organizational stakeholders dealing with employee recruitment or in the organization's management control system, as religiosity is an important factor that must be prioritized.

The study explores the dimensions of gratification value and its effects on user satisfaction and continued usage intentions, along with the influence of social pressure and habits in a Facebook context. We collected 253 survey data and analyzed by structural equation modeling. Our study shows that functional, hedonic, social presence, social interaction and media appeal are the prime dimensions of gratification value, which have a significant positive impact on user satisfaction and continued usage intentions, with social pressure as well. Satisfaction has a direct influence on continued usage intentions and habit, and plays an important mediating role in the model. This study will contribute to the knowledge of social media research and practitioners should focus these insights to increase user satisfaction and continued usage intentions of social media.

Research guided by a social influence perspective on crowd behavior is considered under three categories: leader to crowd; crowd to members; crowd to outsiders. It is argued that a single model of crowd influence which relies on a single process is inadequate. It is found that several social influene proceases affect the attitudes and actions of crowd members-social facilitation, modelling and imitation, conformity to group norms, group discussion and persuasive appeals. The operation of these social influence processes is examined for a variety of crowd forms including crusade rallies (Newton & Mann, 1980), crazy auctions (Mann, 1975), spectators to a dispute (Mann, Paleg & Hawkins, 1978), baiting crowds (Mann, 1982) and queues (Mann, 1970, 1977). The size of the crowd is shown to be an important factor mediating the probability that people will be drawn to the crowd, induced to join, and become influenced by the leader's persuasive message. It is suggested that cultural differences in such factors as conformity pressures are linked to the incidence of crowd activity and the likelihood of social influence occurring in crowds in various countries. Future research should investigate the comparative vulnerability to influence of strangers and groups of friends in crowds, individual differences in susceptibility to crowd influence and discontinuities in individual behavior associated with changes in crowd size and proportion of crowd members already responding.

Purpose – The paper aims to propose an analytical framework for social influence and mathematical formulation for its main components: conformity and peer-pressure. The framework is conceived to explain why certain behaviours and beliefs propagate in a society and some others disappear. It can also be used to study the emergence and the evolution of the status of the norms in terms of their adoption by the population. Design/methodology/approach – The paper is theoretical, making use of economic quantitative methods. The author proposes a new formulation for the evolutionary dynamics, increasingly borrowed by social scientists. Then, mathematically treating the equation, the author draws general conclusions in form of lemmas, which are proved. Findings – The author's main contribution is to show that even behavioural rules and beliefs that emerge in a minority subset of the population, do not procure any benefit for the agents adopting them can under certain conditions, evolve into the consensus of a society, become a norm. Research limitations/implications – More general conclusion (theorems and lemmas) could be stated and proved. But given that the main contribution of the paper is to the fields of social and behavioural economics, along a number of disciplines less mathematical than economics, the author kept the analysis that required fairy advance mathematics for later. Practical implications – The paper contributes to the evolutionary game theory, evolution of preferences, and evolution of beliefs and social norms. More precisely, the equation proposed in the paper can be used in the contexts the patterns of heterogeneity in a population are affected or caused by social influence. Or in the contexts, the social institutions are susceptible to affect an agent's sense of identity (e.g. voting, fashion industry, marketing). Originality/value – In this paper, for the first time, a mathematical formulation is proposed for the social influence and its main psychological components (conformity and status seeking). Using the above, the author proposed a new parametric fitness function for the evolutionary dynamics. The author believes the paper matters to a multidisciplinary public. It answers a question that challenged and puzzled the economists (as well other social scientists): the reasons behind the emergence and the prevalence of social norms do not positively contribute to the utility or payoff of the agents adopting them (and at times they are costly).

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to deepen the understanding on social media brand engagement (SMBE) practices by exploring the impact of consumer brand knowledge, perceived social pressure, perceived social relatedness (PSR) and the role of brand trust. Design/methodology/approach A model is proposed to suggest the influence of consumer-level antecedents and moderators of SMBE. Following a survey design approach, data collected from 687 respondents on Facebook are examined through structural equation modelling using AMOS 23.0. Findings The findings reveal significant relationship between the examined antecedents (brand knowledge, perceived social pressure and brand trust) and SMBE. Examination of the moderation role of PSR revealed significant interaction effects on the relationship between brand knowledge and SMBE, as well as perceived social pressure and SMBE. The findings also suggest a lack of interaction effect of PSR on the relationship between brand trust and SMBE. Research limitations/implications This research provides empirical evidence in support of understanding SMBE practices by testing theoretically grounded hypotheses. The study focussed on technologically savvy respondents and only Facebook users in Ghana, which could limit the generalisation of the findings reported. Practical implications This study illustrates a need for managers to integrate multi-communication channels to enhance brand interactions and engagements. Firms must also adopt strategies that would enhance the sharing of interesting information about their brands on their social media platforms to attract others through customer networks. Originality/value The conceptualization of SMBE in this study zooms out our understanding of online SMBE by examining pertinent variables that drive or moderate consumer participation in SMBE activities. The integration of these variables brings out new empirical understanding and extends our knowledge on SMBE.

The purpose of this research is to verify the impact of social media and social influence on firm performance in Indonesia’s financial industry. Samples were taken using the judgment sampling technique with a total sample of 126 observations. This research utilizes content analysis, fixed-effects, and random-effects models to verify the effect of engaging in social media and social influence on firm performance. The empirical study consists of panel data in the financial industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2019 to 2021. All secondary data is analyzed by moderated regression analysis (MRA) with STATA program. The results explained that social media has an impact on firm performance as estimated by return on asset (ROA). That is, a higher social media made firm can improve firm performance. The study result also suggests that social influence estimates have the pressure to predict firm performance.

The effects of media on body image have been heavily investigated through the years. Recent research has shifted its focus to social media content and other behaviors on social media that can affect body and appearance satisfaction. This study aimed to test the contribution of media pressure to appearance satisfaction according to the prepositions of the Tripartite Influence Model on a sample of young Croatian women. A sample of 308 college students (average age 21.6) completed the BE-Appearance subscale of the Body Esteem Scale for Adolescents and Adults (Mendelson et al., 2001), Physical Appearance Comparison Scale (Thompson et al., 1991), and Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire (Schafer et al., 2015). Path analysis showed that media pressure positively contributes to both appearance comparison with people on Instagram and beauty ideals internalization and negatively contributes to appearance satisfaction in young women. Results also indicate a significant negative indirect contribution of media pressure to appearance satisfaction through appearance comparison and beauty ideals internalization. Findings suggest a strong relationship between media pressure and appearance satisfaction and are discussed in the context of further investigation of media content that could be harmful to appearance satisfaction in young women.

Over the past decade, the rapid development of e-commerce and express industries in China has resulted in huge environmental costs. Compared with manufacturing industries, the values of green innovation are less recognized in logistics industries. To promote the green practices in logistic enterprises, it is imperative to have a thorough understanding of the determinants of green innovation adoption. To this end, this paper performs an empirical investigation into the intentions to adopt green innovation from 196 Chinese express companies. The determinant variables were constructed from the perspective of technology characteristics (perceived green usefulness and perceived integration ease of use), stakeholder pressure (government, customer, and platform pressures), and social influence. Then, a 20-item scale was designed based on the literature review and expert opinions. The results revealed the significant positive effects of technology characteristics and social influence on the intentions to adopt green innovation. Meanwhile, only the platform pressure was significant with the adopting intentions among the variables from stakeholder pressure. Moreover, variables from technology characteristics were found to have meditation effects between social influence and adopting intentions. Based on the findings, theoretical and practical implications are proposed to promote the green and sustainable development of express companies in China.

Abstract The interdependence between partners raises considerable interest in the sociology of life course, work, and families. Partner influences play a particularly important role in the work domain, because each partner’s work decisions have profound effects on the couple as a whole. In contrast to previous research, this article pays detailed attention to the role a partner plays in workers’ labour market decisions by analysing the case of early retirement decisions. We hypothesized that partners’ preferences for older workers’ retirement originate from altruism and self-interest. Moreover, we expected that partners influence older workers’ early retirement behaviour via persuasion and pressure. To adequately estimate partners’ and workers’ preferences for the worker’s retirement, we used an instrumental variable approach. This was possible because we collected multi-actor longitudinal data from a large representative sample of older workers and their partners in the Netherlands. The results support that spousal preferences originate in altruism and self-interest and that partners influence workers through persuasion and pressure. Gender differences in origins and mechanisms of partner influence are also discussed.

Within a context of increasing economic pressure in rural America, this study assesses family responses to this change and their consequences from the perspective of the household economy in middle-class families. It draws on the findings of largely separate fields of inquiry, including those on income level and loss, unemployment, and economic adjustments. Using survey and observational data on two-parent families in a midwestern rural county, the analysis shows that (a) adverse income change increases economic pressures and hardship adaptations in ways that match the effect of income level and exceed the influence of unstable work, (b) economic pressures and adaptations mediate the negative effects of economic adversity on emotional health and family relationships, (c) father's negativity in the family represents a stronger link between economic conditions and child behavior than does mother's negativity, and (d) economic pressure and father's negativity increase the risk of aggressive behavior and depressed feelings among boys and girls, especially in the absence of maternal support.

This study explores a firm's response to institutional pressure from industry peers on their Social community spending. Social community spending is symbolic of the fulfillment of a firm's corporate social responsibility (CSR). The authors hypothesize that mimetic isomorphism occurs among firms in an industry and organizational characteristics, i.e., business group affiliation, ownership status (state-owned versus private), and firm size strengthen or weaken the influence of industry peers. The authors test the propositions on a pooled time-series cross-sectional data of firms in India, with 3,307 observations from 2009-2017 using Generalized Least Squares (GLS) random-effects model. The findings suggest industry peers have a positive influence on a firm's SCS, and this effect is stronger for state-owned enterprises and large firms and weaker for a business group affiliated firms which further aggravates with group size. This article establishes the positive role of the industry association in driving its member firm's SCS and offers an understanding of the contingencies in the above relationship.

We examined the influence mechanism of employees' donation intentions in 4 different mobilization contexts in the workplace in China. Employees (N = 528) from 50 organizations in China completed a survey and the results showed that mobilization context has a significant effect both on employees' perceived pressures and on donation intentions. Specifically, the relationship between employees and the organizer of the contributions in the workplace had a stronger influence on both employees' perceived pressures and donation intentions than did releasing a list of donors and amount of donations. In addition, perceived pressure was found to play a mediating role between the mobilization context and employees' donation intentions, and also to have a significantly negative effect on employees' donation intentions.

Purpose – This paper aims to examine how conflicting brand preferences between a social group and an individual may lead the individual to hide their consumption. Specifically, the authors examine the conditions under which hiding behaviour is most likely to occur and the impact of susceptibility to interpersonal influence on the decision to hide. Design/methodology/approach – Two experiments were conducted using a combination of student and adult samples. Analysis of variance and regression analyses were used to test the hypotheses. Findings – Findings suggest that individuals are most likely to hide their consumption behaviour when group sanctions for non-conformity are severe, but the likelihood of being caught is low. Further, individual differences in susceptibility to interpersonal influence are found to affect individuals’ decisions to hide their consumption behaviour. Research limitations/implications – By identifying hidden consumption behaviour as a possible response to preference conflict, this research contributes to the literature on social influence and extends our understanding of how consumers behave when influenced by social group pressure. Originality/value – The present work establishes hiding behaviour (a concept which has yet to be thoroughly explored in the literature) as an alternative yet viable response to preference conflict.

ABSTRACT This paper reports the results of an experiment examining whether estimate source (developed by an external consultant or the audit client) interacts with social pressure (obedience pressure from a superior or conformity pressure from a peer) to influence Chinese auditors' judgments of fair value estimates. The results reveal an interaction between the source of the estimate and the type of social pressure. Specifically, Chinese auditors' risk assessments and judgments regarding whether an auditor will investigate further are not influenced by relevant information about a fair value estimate's source when advised to use a questionable estimate by a superior. However, when the same advice is received from a peer, the likelihood of further investigation and auditors' risk assessments are impacted by the estimate's source.

ABSTRACT The events surrounding the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Sarbanes) offer an opportunity to reflect on the influences of public pressure and possible public policy shifts on CSR behavior in a capital market experiencing excessive moral debt. Using the passage of Sarbanes to symbolize a potential public policy shift driven by public pressure, we examine the influence of social legitimacy variables on corporate social responsibility (CSR) behavior before (1991–2001) and after (2002–2005) the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We posit that changes in CSR strategies surrounding the passage of Sarbanes were used to maximize stakeholder interests by addressing social legitimacy involving corporate accountability issues. Our findings support that CSR behaviors were significantly influenced by the public pressure variables of Sarbanes and company size, but were not significantly influenced by our economic legitimacy control measures, with the exception of a positive significant interaction between Leverage and Sarbanes for CSR Strengths. It appears that post-Sarbanes CSR behaviors were used to address social legitimacy concerns. Further, as CSR Weaknesses ratings exceeded CSR Strengths ratings post-Sarbanes, it appears that transparency of actual CSR performance may have improved post-Sarbanes.

Purpose Corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting is a widely accepted procedure for firms to disclose their performance in multiple domains, including environmental protection, labour welfare, protection of human rights, community services, contribution to society and pursuit of product safety. This study aims to investigate whether and how board interlocks affect firms’ decisions with respect to CSR reporting. This study argues that board interlocks act as an important source of social pressure and firms are influenced by their peer firms to adopt CSR reporting. Design/methodology/approach This paper sampled listed companies on China’s Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges from 2009 to 2015. The data were collected from Runling database and China Stock Market and Accounting Research database. A multi-period logit model was used to conduct the main regression analysis and the propensity score matching method was used in the robustness checks. Findings A study based on a sample of Chinese publicly listed firms from 2009 to 2015 confirms the argument and shows that sharing a common director on the board with a previous CSR reporter facilitates the firm’s engagement in CSR reporting. Furthermore, this study shows that the influence of board interlocks on CSR reporting depends on the following three characteristics: status of the interlocking director, size of the linked CSR reporter and performance implications of previous CSR activities. Research limitations/implications The interpretation of the current findings should be considered in light of these limitations. First, while board interlocks are an important social aspect of institutional pressure, other types of social pressure exist. Second, the focus is on CSR reporting decisions. However, CSR reporting can also be symbolic, with little substantive quality to improve CSR-related activities. Third, this study argues that both regulatory and social pressures influence the decision to report on CSR. However, this study was unable to determine the weight of each pressure. Future research should follow this direction. Finally, the influence of certain behaviours through interlocks is stronger in the initial stage of the institutionalisation process. Practical implications The findings of this study have important implications for practitioners. First, the messaging role of interlocking directors suggests that director selection should consider the effectiveness of information transfer. Knowing and analysing specific interlock and its links with the firm’s strategy is very important. Meanwhile, firms should be vigilant that the balance between the access to information and loss of autonomy because searching for information related to firms’ strategic decisions might challenge current strategy. Second, the results of the study suggest that to effectively urge companies to engage in CSR reporting, government and policy makers should consider beyond institutional pressure, but also be sensitive to the social pressure exerted upon the companies. Social implications The positive role of board interlocks on corporate voluntary CSR reporting can not only make valuable contributions to the Chinese society but also, as an important participant of global economy and trade, the Chinese interlocking directors’ contribution to CSR reporting have global benefits. Originality/value This study extends the institutional perspective on CSR reporting by uncovering the effect of social pressure. It advances the literature on the antecedents of CSR reporting by linking board interlocks to CSR reporting. Finally, the study enriches the broader interlock literature by delineating three specific characteristics of interlocks that influence CSR reporting.

ABSTRACT This study uses an experiment to investigate how an organization's risk appetite statement (conservative versus aggressive) and source of social pressure (conformity pressure from a peer versus obedience pressure from a superior) combine to influence management accountants' aggressive financial reporting behavior. Specifically, we focus on whether social pressure arising from a superior relative to pressure from a peer may undermine a conservative risk appetite. We find that management accountants' aggressive financial reporting judgments are more responsive to obedience pressure relative to conformity pressure in the presence of a conservative risk appetite, which suggests that pressure from a superior may reduce the effectiveness of a conservative risk appetite. Our study contributes to understanding how factors at the individual, social, and organizational level combine to influence management accountants' aggressive financial reporting behavior.

Objective: This research aims to determine the relationship between social pressure and the permissiveness of dating behavior of high school students in Medan City. This research also analyzes how much influence social pressure has on the permissiveness of dating behavior and analyzes the results based on the reality that occurs in society. Theoretical Framework: Many studies have been carried out regarding permissiveness from various points of view. However, there have not been many studies that specifically explore information related to social pressure as one of the causes of permissive teenage dating behavior. Method: This research uses a quantitative methodology, with linear regression model estimation and correlation analysis, using primary data obtained through questionnaires given to high school students in Medan City, Indonesia. Results and Discussion: The results of the study show that there is a strong relationship between social pressure and the permissiveness of adolescent dating behavior. This is proven by the correlation coefficient between the two variables, which is 0.698. Apart from that, social pressure has a positive influence on the permissiveness of teenagers' dating behavior. Research Implications: This research aims to prove the relationship and influence of social pressure on the permissiveness of adolescent dating behavior. The analysis carried out in this research was not only carried out mathematically but was also linked to theories that have been discussed in previous literature. Originality/Value: This research contributes to the literature by analyzing one of the factors that influence the permissiveness of adolescent behavior. The relevance and value of this research are proven by the testing of the assumption that social pressure is one of the factors causing permissive teenage dating behavior.

In recent conditions, company is not considers merely on profit, but there is strong argument that company must aware on its social environments. Hence, it is required that a company must disclose its social responsibility to the stakeholders. Corporate social disclosure itself is influenced by many factors. The objective of this study is to explain the influencing factors of corporate social responsibility. Based on the Stakeholders theory, the study will investigated social responsibility accounting phenomena on business practices. The research sites would be in PTPN- East Java consists of PTPN X, XI, and XII. Regressions models are used to test the formulated hypothesis. Data were collected by using questionnaires which were mailed to 58 top and middle managers in PTPN who directly or indirectly involved in the corporate social responsibility. The empirical finding showed that and partially Mass media pressure are significant factor to corporate social disclosure, meanwhile Government regulation, Community pressure, environmental organization pressure do not have significant effect on corporate social disclosure. However, simultaneously those factors significantly influence the PTPTN’s corporate social disclosure.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to understand the tensions that marketing practitioners in social enterprises experience, and to explore how these tensions impact the development and implementation of marketing activities. Design/methodology/approach Using an approach informed by grounded theory, this paper reports on an investigation of the tensions facing 15 social enterprises. The primary data comprises semi-structured interviews with senior marketing decision-makers, supplemented with archival sources. Findings The analysis shows tensions and dualities inform the social and commercial strategic marketing activities of the social enterprises. These tensions and dualities are linked to how the organization obtains financial resources, the nature of the organization’s growth, working with myriad stakeholders and competitive versus cooperative pressures. A model outlining the dualities and their links to marketing activities is developed. Research limitations/implications The study provides an in-depth analysis of a small, regional sample of Canadian social enterprises. The study serves as a foundation for future research aimed at elaborating the model we propose. Practical implications The findings point to tensions and dualities that play an important role in enabling and restricting the development and implementation of strategic marketing activities in social enterprises. Understanding the nature of these dualities is crucial for social enterprise managers and social marketers as they develop strategic activities. Social implications Social enterprises engage in activities that offer substantial social benefits, yet the development of marketing activities in these organizations requires confronting tensions that must be carefully managed. Originality/value This paper highlights how dualities facing marketing practitioners in social enterprises influence the development of both social and for-profit marketing activities. The paper offers a model of these dualities. The findings help to extend our understanding of the complex environmental influences impacting marketing practices within social enterprise organizations. Understanding the nature of these environmental influences helps to attune marketers to the potential opportunities and challenges of using social enterprise as an organizational form for launching social marketing programs, as well as providing a theoretical basis for future investigations of marketing practice in social enterprise and social marketing organizations.

“Black Swans” andgroup decision making have become familiar terms in the relevant fileds. There have been many Black Swan events in history, such as the current covid9 epidemic or the failed launch of the Challenger space shuttle in 1986. In the run-up to the Challenger launch, NASA conducts a conference call. This contains typical group decision-making issues. As an example, through access to information. Aboutexamine the impact of the social and historical context of the Challenger launch on the conference call, and author also analyses the impact of these contextual factors on the decision-making group. In order to identify these potential factors so that they can be avoided in future decision making. Some Black Swan events are accompanied by group decisions, which can influence the direction of events. However, the decision makers and participants in group decisions are also influenced by different factors. For example, social context and pressure. In high pressure or reactive situations, group decisions can be biased in different ways. In the case of Challenger, the decision makers were influenced by public opinion and the pressure of the international situation at the time, which led to problematic decisions. This is why it is more important in group decision-making to look at the problem of the event itself and consider the problems that existed. This paper using a literature review research method with Challenger as the subject of the study, examines the impact of the historical context and social environment on decision-making at the Challenger pre-launch group meeting. The research results show that the context created economic, public opinion and time pressures on NASA. These pressures in turn had a huge impact on the decision makers. In the end the panel's decision making was flawed.

Humans employ a number of strategies to improve their position in their given social hierarchy. Overclaiming involves presenting oneself as having more knowledge than one actually possesses, and it is typically invoked to increase one’s social standing. If increased expectations to possess knowledge is a perceived social pressure, such expectations should increase bouts of overclaiming. As the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) is sensitive to social pressure and disruption of the MPFC leads to decreases in overclaiming, we predicted that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) applied to the MPFC would reduce overclaiming and the effects would be enhanced in the presence of social pressure. Twelve participants were given a test in which half of the words were real and half were fake, and they were asked how well they knew each word. They were not told that any of the words were fake. Half of the participants were exposed to social pressure while the other half were not. Following TMS delivered to the MPFC, overclaiming rates decreased, specifically under conditions of high social pressure. Medial PFC TMS did not influence real word responses and real words did not interact with the MPFC and social pressure. These preliminary findings support the significant role the MPFC plays in social cognition and the importance of the MPFC in mediating socially meaningful situations. We suggest the role of the MPFC as being highly influenced by the premium placed on social manipulation in human evolution.
