Our study found evidence of an independent causative association between psychological stress and coronary heart disease, of a similar order to the more conventional coronary heart disease risk factors.
Employee performance is the backbone of achieving competitiveness and sustainability. This study aims to examine the impact of workplace incivility on employee performance. In addition, trust in supervisors is examined as a mediator. The conservation of resources (COR) theory and Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory provided the grounds for developing the framework. The data were collected through closed-ended questionnaires and were analyzed using structural equation modeling with SmartPLS. The results affirmed that incivility is harmful to the performance of employees, and that trust in supervisors helps employees to perform well. The trust in the supervisor significantly mediates the incivility–performance relationship. The examination of the proposed model through the lens of two theories as well as the study of low-intensity deviant workplace behavior in a collectivist and developing economy are the contributions of this study to the growing body of literature. However, the use of a single sector was one of the limitations of this study.
This paper discusses the trend of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and its role in the healthcare industry. AI is being used to improve efficiency and effectiveness in healthcare. Still, challenges remain, such as privacy and data protection and healthcare workers' hesitancy to replace their work with technology. This study aims to see opportunities for using AI in the health sector and understand existing problems, such as barriers to significant initial investments. This study uses a qualitative approach and focuses on the author's understanding based on secondary sources and personal experience. The study results show that AI can assist health workers in making diagnoses and providing more efficient health services. However, it still has to be used as a tool and cannot replace the role of health workers as a whole.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
