“…Therefore, we recommend exploring this aspect of internet engagement in future research. Subsequent to the exploration of consumer happiness using social cognitive theory (Bandura 1989), self-determination theory (Deci and Ryan 2012), broaden-and-build theory (Fredrickson 2004), psychological happiness theories (Griffin 1986;Seligman 2002), and empowerment theory (Zimmerman 2000), we recommend further research to extend our understanding of the relationship between happiness and consumer internet engagement through the lens of theories such as the technology acceptance theory/model, the unified theory of acceptance, the expectation confirmation model, innovation diffusion theory, and the value acceptance model.…”

The recent rise of consumer happiness research in marketing literature is noticeable. This article presents a systematic review of consumer happiness research from 1991 to 2020. From an initial pool of 600 articles on consumer happiness from 158 marketing journals in the ABS and ABDC lists, 71 articles were selected. The procedure was as follows: (1) search of articles, (2) quality assessment, (3) extraction of data from articles, and (4) thematic synthesis. The review concluded that the term “consumer happiness” does not have a standardized definition in the existing literature. However, happiness has been studied in a variety of contexts, and consumer research is one of these contexts. Further, the review concluded that consumer happiness research is largely segregated across three themes: marketing beyond satisfaction, marketing for health and mind, and digital felicity. Seven areas of future research on consumer happiness are also proposed. The authors present academic and managerial contributions with scholarly implications for the literature in the areas of consumer well-being, the role of marketing/interactive marketing, and the positive side of marketing. The authors also suggest that marketers not only seek consumers’ need fulfillment and satisfaction from their product or service consumption but also try to elicit hedonic associations with their products or services.

“…As a disruptive agent, the COVID-19 pandemic changed the architecture of the conventional workplace and ignited changes that require organizational leaders to focus on unanticipated opportunities, challenges, and improve their comprehension of what works. To effectively understand the effects of this disruption on employees, understand their perspectives on the future of the workplace while remaining considerate of employer expectations on work engagement and productivity, the study seamlessly integrated the theories of desire (Griffin, 1986), conservation of resources (COR; Hobfoll, 1989Hobfoll, , 2001Hobfoll, , 2012Hobfoll et al, 2018); ecological resources (Grzywacz & Marks, 2000); as well as the job demands and resources theory (JD-R) (Bakker & Demerouti, 2007).…”

Impact of COVID-19 Induced Teleworking Arrangements on Employees in NGOs: Implications for Policy and Practice for Leadership

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The article sought to address real or perceived “teleworking hesitancy” by generating empirical evidence on employee exposure to teleworking in a global south context. The results of the empirical investigation were integrated with the growing body of research on the future of the post-pandemic workplace. The results depicted the opposite and significant effects of perceived workload and organizational teleworking support on employee teleworking experience and the (growing) desire to utilize flexible working options. Furthermore, the results showed the significant effects of nonwork demands (negative) and resources (positive) on work engagement and the moderating role of external support contacts. The results further affirmed the mediating role of work engagement on perceived productivity. Based on these results, incremental “A-E” policy and practice considerations that place talent at the heart of organizational efforts to remain sustainably future-fit are proposed. The proposed policies and practices carry a futuristic bias, a conscious recognition that the future workplace will be “hybrid.” Areas for future research are presented.

“…Virtually every article published in the last 30 years on pleasure has mentioned it more or less explicitly. A non‐exhaustive list includes Parfit (1984), Griffin (1986), Feldman (1988), Kagan (1992), Carson (2000), Feldman (2004), Crisp (2006), Heathwood (2007), Mason (2007), Smuts (2011), Labukt (2012), Bramble (2013), Moen (2013), Aydede (2014, 2018), and Lin (2018). ‘Heterogeneity’ has progressively become the standard term to refer to this problem.…”

From the Heterogeneity Problem to a Natural‐Kind Approach to Pleasure

The heterogeneity problem, which stems from the alleged difficulty of finding out what all pleasant experiences have in common, is largely considered as a substantial issue in the philosophy of pleasure, one that is usually taken as the starting point for theorizing about the essence of pleasure.The goal of this paper is to move the focus away from the heterogeneity problem and toward a new approach to pleasure. To do this, I first show that, although the approach stemming from the heterogeneity problem -what I call the heterogeneity approach -has led to an interesting discussion on the essence of pleasure, it has significant methodological problems that make it unlikely to make more progress. I thus propose a natural-kind approach to pleasure, which has been surprisingly overlooked so far, and which seeks to determine what, if any, the natural kind of pleasure would consist in. This approach overcomes the obstacles which the heterogeneity approach is confronted with. It also broadens the investigation of pleasure by enabling the use of a larger range of methodological tools, thus opening new promising directions for research.
