“…Extraverts tend to enjoy human interactions and to be enthusiastic, talkative, assertive, optimistic, cheerful, and gregarious (Wilt & Revelle, 2008). Extraverts are invigorated when socializing and are more prone to boredom derived from solitude (Aliabadi M et al, 2020). We have chosen to focus specifically on extraversion, since it appears to be more theoretically pertinent to the model's constructs: sensation-seeking, hubris, and EoC.…”

Escalation of Commitment (EoC) relates to decision-makers’ tendency to commit resources to a failing course of action. The current study attempts to expand the understanding of personality traits as factors that potentially engender EoC by offering an EoC-prone personality profile. Our moderated-mediation model illustrates how extraversion affects EoC through the mediations of sensation-seeking, and how hubris moderates the effect of sensation-seeking on EoC. The results are based on data gleaned from an online questionnaire completed by 314 respondents from various managerial levels employed among wide-ranging Israeli industries. Data was obtained via network respondent-driven sampling from a 500 managers’ sample. The model was tested using Hayes’s Process procedure. Sensation-seeking was found to fully mediate the relationship between extraversion and EoC, while hubris was found to moderate the relationship between sensation-seeking and EoC. Managerial implications and future research directions are suggested.

Digitalization in the power grid sector will become a strong support in the future for the upgrading of the power industry. And, multistation integration has become a leading project in the process. However, there are some hidden risks to its security with the boom of new technologies. Risk analysis and evolution of the multistation integration have an important role in safe operation. This paper analyzes the relationship among risk factors by using both the structural equation modeling (SEM) and the chi-squared automatic interaction detector (CHAID) approach, which is more objective than subjective judgment. The result shows the following: (1) The operational risks come from 10 risk-derived sources which therefore can be qualitatively divided into 2 risk categories with 11 risk indicators. (2) Concerning the structural analysis, the main risk source of multistation integration comes from endogenous risks. (3) In terms of procedural analysis, cultural risk, information risk, and accidental risk are the most critical external risks, while performance risk and location risk are the most critical internal ones. The results of models provide a reference for engineering management in digitalization in the power grid sector.

The role of farmers’ green values in creation of green innovative intention and green technology adoption behavior: Evidence from farmers grain green production

et al. 2022

Grain for Green Project (GGP) is one of China’s important ecological restoration projects. The key rationale of this Program is to decrease soil erosion and develop ecological conditions. The agricultural sector is putting efforts to promote green innovation and production among farmers to achieve the targets of ecological restoration projects. However, farmers’ green values could play a constructive role in building green innovative intention and green technology adoption behaviors. Based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), the present study investigates the association between farmers’ green values and green technology adoption behavior. For empirical investigation, the current study assumes that farmers’ green values positively correlate with green innovative intention and green technology adoption behavior, respectively. Further, this study proposes that green innovative intention positively impacts green technology adoption behavior. The present study also aims to determine the mediating role of green innovative intention in the relationship between farmer green values and green technology adoption behavior. This study also attempts to check the moderating role of health consciousness in the relationship between farmer green values and green innovative intention and the relationship between farmer green values and green technology adoption behavior, respectively. For empirical analyses, the present study gathered data from303 farmers in China through a structured questionnaire method using a convenient sampling technique. The present study applied partial least square structural equation modeling for empirically examining hypotheses using Smart PLS software. The findings confirmed that farmers’ green values have a positive association with green innovative intention and green technology adoption behavior, respectively. The results further verified that green innovative intention positively correlates with green technology adoption behavior. The finding also authenticated that green innovative intention positively mediates the relationship between farmers’ green values and green technology adoption behavior. The moderating role of health consciousness in the relationship between farmers’ green values and green innovative intention is also confirmed by the results of this study. However, the findings revealed that health consciousness does not moderate the relationship between farmers’ green values and green technology adoption behavior. This study’s findings serve the literature by providing empirical insight on the importance of farmers’ green values for green innovative intention and green technology adoption behavior. Moreover, the findings also have important theoretical and practical implications.
