The primary objective of this paper is to advance the theoretical knowledge on the phenomenon of gazelles by integrating the findings of previous studies into a conceptual model that would account for a sustainable high growth. A theoretical explorative and deductive method is adopted. A number...

This study tested the context of employees using their devices for both work and personal use, and non-compliant device usage of a person potentially resulting in Information Systems (IS) security threat to personal as well as work data and/or the devices. Integrating bystander and protection...

Despite the attractiveness in weed management, herbicides can produce several hazardous effects due to their persistence in the environment. It is therefore important to strike a balance between the herbicidal activity and ecotoxicological profile. The aim of the present paper is to perform a...

The most fundamental problem currently associated with structural equation modeling employing the partial least squares method is that it does not properly account for measurement error, which often leads to path coefficient estimates that asymptotically converge to values of lower magnitude...

This article explores the influence of social, self, and use factors on the intention to perform social computing actions in online social sites. A survey was conducted using peer-to-peer file sharing as representative of a social computing action. Collected data was analyzed using the...

Path models with and without latent variables are extensively used in e-collaboration research. Both direct and moderating relationships can be included in such path models. Moderating relationships involve three latent variables, the moderating variable and a pair of variables that are...

E-collaboration researchers usually employ P values for hypothesis testing, a common practice in a variety of other fields. This is also customary in many methodological contexts, such as analyses of path models with or without latent variables, as well as simpler tests that can be seen as...

Recent methodological developments building on partial least squares (PLS) techniques and related ideas have significantly contributed to bridging the gap between factor-based and composite-based structural equation modeling (SEM) methods. PLS-SEM is extensively used in the field of...

Among latent variables that can be used in e-collaboration research, job performance is a particularly important one. It measures what most e-collaboration tools in organizations aim to improve, namely the performance at work of individuals executing tasks collaboratively with others. The...

Social media has become widely adopted in both society and business. However, the academy has been slow to leverage social media as a learning tool. The purpose of this study is twofold. First, this study explores student perceptions about the use of social media in face-to-face classroom...
