“…PLS-SEM is a widely used method of analysis because of its robustness (Penga and Lai, 2012). PLS-SEM was used in this study for two reasons; first, because the main focus of this study was the prediction of dependent variables (Roldán and Sánchez-Franco, 2012), and second, because of the incremental character in this study (i.e. OCB as a mediator between training satisfaction and turnover intention) (Hair et al , 2014; Nitzl et al , 2016; Richter et al , 2016).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the role of training satisfaction as a predictor of organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) and turnover intention. The study further examines the mediating role of OCB between training satisfaction and turnover intention. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 409 Malaysian oil and gas (O&G) sector employees. Partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the hypotheses in the research model using SmartPLS 3.0. Findings This study highlights the significant positive impact of training satisfaction on OCB and the negative effect on turnover intention. Contrary to expectations, OCB proved to be neither a predictor of turnover intention nor a mediator in the model. Practical implications Although the main aim of this study was to test the theoretically driven hypotheses, the findings have a number of valuable implications for organisations. This study suggests that O&G organisations should focus on increasing employee satisfaction with training to maximise desired workplace attitudes and behaviours. Originality/value This is the first study to explore the causal links between training satisfaction, OCB and turnover intention. Although it has been observed in the past that training does not directly influence turnover intention, the present study indicates that training satisfaction significantly influences turnover intention. Further, this study unexpectedly found no direct relationship between OCB and turnover intention. Also, OCB was not a significant mediator in the present study. These unexpected findings open new avenues for future research, thus representing an important contribution of the present study.

“…To empirically test the hypothesis posited within this study, this paper relies on the use of Partial Least Squares (PLS) path-modeling, a variance-based structural equation modeling (VBSEM) technique (Roldán and Sánchez-Franco, 2012). The main reason underlying this decision refers to the composite nature of the two constructs under assessment in our research model.…”

“…Secondly, the ease of doing business construct has been modeled as composite construct in Mode B. Therefore, it must be assessed in terms of (i) potential multicollinearity between items and (ii) weight assessment (Roldán and Sánchez-Franco, 2012). Following Petter, Straub and Rai (2007) variance inflation factor (VIF) values that surpass the threshold of 3.3 denotes the existence of high multicollinearity between items.…”

The wealth of nations differs significantly due to different factors. One of the reasons identified by previous studies is the level of entrepreneurship promotion by governments. This aspect has scarcely been studied empirically to date. Therefore, this paper sheds some light on this regard through building a construct out of ten Ease of Doing Business Index (EDBI) measures developed by the World Bank and relating it with a construct shaped by two measures of socioeconomic wealth (SEW), namely gross domestic product and the Human Development Index. To this end, we conduct a structural equation model analysis using partial least squares (PLS-SEM) method with a 2018 database comprising secondary data from 190 countries. As the main contribution of this study, the results show that good performance in the EDBI ranking predicts good performance in the SEW ranking. Additionally, this study is pioneer in the use of these rankings to build composite constructs (latent variables) and relate them. For these reasons, our findings are useful for both academia and governments responsible for promoting entrepreneurship, as this latter is identified as the key enabler of economic development.

“…MIS researchers strongly value theory development that abstracts (or generalizes) a phenomenon to analyze, explain, predict, or influence how information systems support organizations and/or individuals [11]. Yet, MIS researchers have begun reflecting on the state of their own community as a means of trying to balance between the theoretical rigor and cumulative tradition valued within the community and the relevance of their scholarly work [14]. Senior MIS researchers have expressed concerns regarding an identity crisis in the discipline [3], where phenomena too distantly related with IT-based systems are over-emphasized, and the IT artifact is often overlooked [18].…”

ACM SIGCHI is the largest association for professionals in HCI that bridges computer science, information science, as well as the social and psychological sciences. Meanwhile, a parallel HCI community was formed in 2001 within the Association of Information Systems (AIS SIGHCI) community. While some researchers have already bridged these two HCI subdisciplines, the history and core values of these respective fields are quite different, offering new insights for how we can move forward together to sustain the future of HCI research. The main goal of this workshop is to begin building a bridge between these two communities to maximize the relevance, rigor, and generalizability of HCI research.
