The discourse of gender amidst the COVID-19 pandemic had been a big fuss. Amongst the discussions is the gender-related responses to COVID-19 that generally assume females to better respond to COVID-19 than males. Despite the converging assumptions, previous studies tend to conceptualize gender as binary biological sex, and consequently, there is little understanding of the gender-COVID-19 measures compliance relationship. By taking gender as a multidimensional perspective, this research aims to examine the relationship between sex, gender psychology, and gender-role with voluntary compliance to COVID-19 measures as well as the moderating role of situational aspects that can activate individuals' responses toward COVID-19. A survey had been conducted in Indonesia, as Indonesia represents a country with relaxed COVID-19 restrictions making voluntary compliance is deemed important. Consistent with our predictions and previous studies, females tend to better comply with COVID-19 when gender is treated as dichotomous sex. However, a closer look at the gender dimensions revealed that gender psychology (feminine vs masculine) and gender-role (traditional vs egalitarian) provide a better explanation of the specific compliance behaviour toward COVID-19 measures. Interestingly, although situational pathogen avoidance (SPA) directly leads to adherence to several compliance behaviours, it does not moderate the four compliance behaviour of COVID-19 measures. Theoretical and practical contributions are further discussed.

Along with technological developments in the payment system, the role of cash as a means of payment began to be replaced by a more efficient and economical form of non-cash payment such as electronic money. However, the use of electronic money in Indonesia has not increased, and the percentage of users of it is far behind compared with other countries. This study aims to apply Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with Locus of Control (LOC) as a moderating variable in the context of the use of electronic money. The community of DIY consisted of 1 municipality, and 4 districts were selected as the sample of this study. The results of this study indicate in general that the variable attitude to behavior as well as control of perceptive behavior have a positive effect on the intention of using electronic money while subjective norms are not proven to significantly affect the intention. However, especially for the respondents who live in the village, the subjective norm variable actually affects the intention of using the electronic money, while the variable control of perceptive behavior does not affect the intention. Locus of Control (LOC) is not proven to moderate the existing variables in Theory of Planned Behavior with the intention of using electronic money.

This study investigates the impact of mindful and empathetic leadership on resilience and turnover intention, with self-regulation as a mediating variable. A quantitative survey was administered to 188 nurses dealing with COVID-19’s patients in Indonesia. Data were analyzed using Process v3.5 Andrew F. Hayes in SPSS. This study revealed that mindful leadership reduces turnover intention, and empathetic leadership increases resilience, while mindful leadership does not increase resilience, and empathetic leadership does not lessen turnover intention. We also conclude that self-regulation mediates the relationship between mindful leadership/empathetic leadership and turnover intention/resilience. Despite being limited to the Indonesian context, this research offers several contributions from both theoretical and practical perspectives. First, this research established the importance of mindful and empathetic leadership to promote resilience and reduce the turnover intention of nurses in the time of crisis. Second, we confirmed self-regulation as the mediating variable for those relationships. Practically, we suggest that having empathetic and mindful leaders is effective in supporting nurses to deal with COVID-19 patients.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop and test a model for the relationship between learning behavior in groups and empowerment leadership using trust among group members as a specific context factor that influences the relationship. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a quantitative survey that involves 78 working groups from various types of teams and diverse business fields in Indonesia. Data analysis was carried out at the group level, and, for the hypothesis testing, hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used. Findings The empirical results of the testing show that empowerment leadership has a positive influence on learning behavior in groups, and trust among group members is proven to be a moderating variable that strengthens the influence of these variables. Research limitations/implications The process of generalizing findings must be carried out carefully considering that the model testing carried out was in the context of specific groups and included the existence of common method bias risk. Originality/value This paper provides an understanding of the interaction between the presence of group leaders who have an empowerment leadership style and the existence of trust among group members that will encourage the emergence of learning behavior in groups. It contributes to the current literature by filling a gap from social information processing perspective. Individuals collectively will have attitudes and behavior based on information from coworkers while developing self-leadership that leads to sharing knowledge and sharing experience within the group.

This study addresses the ongoing debate about the tension faced by firms -either using different strategy or similar strategy compared to other firms to achieve good performance. Using the institutional theory and a resource-based view as the framework, this study answers the question and proves which strategy really affects the performance of the firms. Using data from the Indonesian banking industry, the results of the analysis show that being different enhances the firm's performance (ROA). Keywords:
