“…(2016), but is in line with Ebrahim et al. (2016). A possible explanation for this insignificant effect is that banking customers perceive that serious levels of environmental degradation are occurring, and their personal contribution may not be sufficient to reduce such degradation (Atik et al, 2020; Coombs, 2007; Rainforest Action Network, 2020) that makes AGB fail to motivate IGB (Ajzen, 2005, 2011; Bagozzi, 1992; Baumeister & Vohs, 2007).…”

“…(2016) found that AGB mediates the effect of collectivism on IGB. In contrast, Ebrahim, Davis, and Tomaka (2016) found that attitude did not mediate the effect of acculturation on the intention to use a blocking tool. This study addresses the conflicting findings through the examination of the mediating role of customer AGB in the effect of PCE on IGB.…”

Banks offer loans to support many projects; however, some of these projects may not give adequate consideration to the environment. Little is known regarding the extent to which banking customers experience guilt when discovering that their bank supports projects that disregard the environment. An experiment with 313 participants was conducted, and the results showed that customers do experience guilt when discovering that their bank supports projects that do not give adequate consideration to the environment. This study found that guilt drives perceived consumer effectiveness and negative word‐of‐mouth regarding banking projects that neglect environmental considerations but not attitudes towards green banking. Negative word of mouth, but not the attitude towards green banking, mediates the effect of perceived consumer effectiveness on the intention to use green banking services. Negative word‐of‐mouth, rather than attitudes towards green banking and its perceived consumer effectiveness, drives the intention to use green banking services. These findings imply that banks need to encourage their customers to perceive that they are eco‐friendly to avoid a significant loss of customers.

“…Our research further highlighted culture care practices which should be maintained, such as valuing the patient's cultural identity, those which should be accommodated, such as availability of interpreter services, and those which should be restructured, such as promoting preventive care and health screenings, which is consistent with the findings of other studies (Adegboyega & Hatcher, 2017;Chaumba, 2011;Ebrahim et al, 2016;Hall & Cuellar, 2016;Wolf, Zoucha, McFarland, Salman, & Dagne, 2016). Barriers to screening may be due to factors such as, attitude, knowledge deficit, fatalistic beliefs, and fear (Adegboyega & Hatcher, 2017;Chaumba, 2011;Ebrahim et al, 2016). Communication can be considered fundamental for a patient's satisfaction and quality care.…”

Introduction: The purposes of this mini study were to identify and describe the culture care beliefs and practices of Ethiopian immigrants in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States and to advance the science of transcultural nursing. Methodology: Leininger's theory of culture care diversity and universality guided the research and was the framework for the design of this qualitative ethnonursing mini study. Data were collected from 15 participants through in-depth interviews. Results: Five themes and 14 care patterns merged from the data, including preserving cultural heritage, supporting family and friends, importance of religion and prayer, valuing freedom, cultural caring, and therapeutic communication. Discussion: Participants valued health care and medical technology in the United States. They wanted nurses to inquire about their culture, language preference, food and dietary practices, and family dynamics. Perceived lack of caring by nurses and unavailability of interpreters in health care settings negatively affected access to care.

“…The conceptualisation of health behaviour, as being the result of an individual decision-making process does not fully account for sociocultural and sociostructural factors, and the importance of social connectedness and integration, (Garcia, 2016;Yarbrough & Braden, 2001). The TPB construct of group-based elements, 'subjective norms' does not adequately explain broader issues such as gender difference and acculturation; highly salient issues within many migrant groups (Ebrahim, Davis & Tomaka, 2016).…”

Feeling misidentified: Understanding migrant's readiness to engage in health care screening

Rationale: For developed countries there has been a significant, fast-paced rise in migrant populations. Society has a vested interest in these members of the population being aware of their risk of a communicable disease, and seeking health screening. Currently, screening interventions rely heavily upon socio-cognitive, majority-orientated theories that may not account for cultural factors differentially affecting migrant groups. Objective: To develop an inductive theory to explain processes underlying the readiness of migrants to engage in health screening. In understanding why some groups engage in screening more than others we examined the U.K. South Asian population, and screening for hepatitis B and C. Method: We conducted eight focus groups with first-generation South Asian migrants. Results were analysed using a three stage, process-orientated methodology based on the principles of grounded theory, with the explicit aim of developing new theory. Results: A theory of 'readiness to engage' is presented; embedded within participants' testimonies. The results highlight personal identity, family identity and the collective identity of the South Asian community; with family and community conceptualised as a singular force, acting to either silence or support. Identity issues and screening readiness were also strongly related to interactions with the healthcare-system, with participants often feeling misidentified, misunderstood, or under personal threat. 2 Conclusions: Our theoretical model takes account of the complex, interlocking relationship between the individual, the community, and healthcare system, and provides practical implications for healthcare providers of screening interventions.
