“…Stratified random sampling enables researcher to make generalizations (i.e., statistical inferences) from the sample to the population [60]. The stratified sampling gives more reliable and detailed information about the sample [61]. Data were collected through survey method and quantitative analysis were done by employing the structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze direct and indirect effect.…”

“…Data were collected through survey method and quantitative analysis were done by employing the structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze direct and indirect effect. The survey method was used in this quantitative research due to the reason that it is useful in describing the characteristics of a large population and it ensures a more accurate results for researcher to draw conclusions and make decisions [61]. Of 800 questionnaires disseminated, 702 responses were received, of which 46 were incomplete and therefore excluded from the analysis.…”

According to the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Service of Malaysia (CUEPACS), nearly 500,000 Malaysian civil servants have been identified as experiencing work stress. By investigating the effects of work stress on civil servants in Malaysia's federal agencies, the relationship between leadership (LS), team conflict (TC), and work stress (WS) in the Malaysian public sector was examined and the mediating effect of job demands (JD) was tested. The sample comprised 626 respondents who worked in Putrajaya, Kuala Lumpur. Data were collected through survey method and quantitative analysis were done employing the structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze direct and indirect effect. According to the findings, there was a significant positive impact of TC on WS, TC on JD, and LS on JD. Contrarily, the impact of LS on WS was not significant. The JD constructs was identified as mediator of the aforementioned relationships. The practical implications suggested that organizations should place greater emphasis on cultivating a learning culture to successfully adapt and respond to novel external challenges. Leaders could reduce WS by being honest and empathetic towards the employees and granting them the flexibility to spend precious time with their loved ones. In addition, supervisors and managers should use more transformational approaches in their interactions with subordinates. Team members could stay in touch for social support. The findings extended previous research and strengthened the antecedents of WS, namely LS, TC, and JD, in public organization.

“…This study adopted a qualitative approach to collect and analyse the data. According to Christensen et al (2014), the qualitative design enables the researcher to explore, uncover salient issues and gain insight into activities that might be missed in structured surveys. Therefore, the qualitative design was deemed appropriate for the study as it enabled the researcher to elicit information on how public procurement can be a driver to achieve a circular economy among SME housing developers (Miles et al 2014).…”

“…The target population for this study are public procurement personnel, SME housing developer owners and construction site managers. Due to limitations to access participants, data was collected from 22 purposively selected participants using semi-structured interviews (Christensen et al 2014). Semi-structured interviews enabled the researcher to interact oneto-one with the interviewees, ask for more explanations and seek clarifications to vague answers (Teddlie & Tashakkori 2009).…”

“…The volunteer vocational school students from a public university in Turkey participated in the study, which used convenient sampling (Christensen et al , 2014). In total, 171 vocational school students agreed to participate, but 129 participants’ data can be used due to technical problems such as power cuts or internet connection.…”

Purpose This study aims to develop and test a browser extension as a scaffolding tool to guide learners about evaluating online sources. Design/methodology/approach In total, 129 undergraduate students participated in this experimental study. Both groups completed two Web searching tasks, but the experimental group used a browser extension. Findings The results indicated that there are significant differences between groups in terms of the number of accurate sources and visited sites. There were no differences neither in the success status nor the access time. The browser extension guidance affected certain search parameters, but this effect seemed to be diminished in accordance with students’ cognitive abilities as well as their digital literacy levels. Research limitations/implications The participants were from a vocational school, so any other study with different participants might reveal different findings. Practical implications The browser extension is convenient to be used with regards to interface and instructions. It can serve as a self-training tool with small changes in the code. The intervals and types of messages can be customized in line with the users’ needs. Social implications The approach used in this study can contribute to the dissemination of misleading information on the Web. People of any age can use and benefit from this approach via a simple extension. Originality/value The extension can serve as a fundamental framework for the construction of adaptive or smart extensions. As this study revealed the importance of both cognitive abilities and digital literacy levels, the extension can be enriched with the inclusion of cognitive scaffolding.
