Human resource developments with the touch of artificial intelligence: a scale development study
PurposeThe aim of this study is to develop a reliable and valid scale. At the same time, it is to reveal the perceptions of HR employees towards artificial intelligence (AI). In addition, examining the change made by AI in the HR department is another purpose of the study.Design/methodology/approachA scale was developed in this study. A total of 821 observation out of the samples from the human resource managers and employees of the Turkey's largest organizations in terms of capital were analyzed by applying all scientific steps of scale development process. Using appropriate statistical criteria, scale was showed to be valid and reliable. General condition was demonstrated in the human resource departments of large companies in Turkey as a result of these tests.FindingsHuman resource employees and managers could have the perception that this technology will save the work done from monotony, reduce the stress experienced to find the suitable candidate and access more candidates with the desired qualifications. It was found that when AI technology was included in training and development process, human resource managers and employees could have a perception that the time spent for training and the lack of attention in training will decrease compared to the traditional method.Originality/valueThe contribution of this study to the literature is the development of a valid and reliable scale. Data collected with the developed scale were evaluated in Turkey.

Assessing the green behaviour of academics
PurposeStudies have highlighted concerns about the role of knowledge creation between human resource management practices and employee behaviour. The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of green human resource management (green HRM) on employee green behaviour (EGB) through the mediation of environmental knowledge of lecturers in public research universities in Malaysia.Design/methodology/approachThis cross-sectional study examines the mechanism in which green HRM affects the EGB of lecturers through environmental knowledge in Malaysian public research universities. Smart PLS was used to analyse the relationships from 425 valid responses.FindingsThe findings of the study show that green HRM affects EGB through the full mediation of environmental knowledge. This finding gives a theoretical implication in terms of ability, motivation and opportunity theory.Research limitations/implicationsThe scope of this study is limited to public research universities in Malaysia. Future studies may explore other variables that could expedite the relationship between green HRM and EGB. Implications include policy making that emphasises on enhancing environmental knowledge of lecturers.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, no study has been conducted using environmental knowledge as a mediator between green HRM and EGB.

Quasi-Experimental Shift-Share Research Designs
Many studies use shift-share (or “Bartik”) instruments, which average a set of shocks with exposure share weights. We provide a new econometric framework for shift-share instrumental variable (SSIV) regressions in which identification follows from the quasi-random assignment of shocks, while exposure shares are allowed to be endogenous. The framework is motivated by an equivalence result: the orthogonality between a shift-share instrument and an unobserved residual can be represented as the orthogonality between the underlying shocks and a shock-level unobservable. SSIV regression coefficients can similarly be obtained from an equivalent shock-level regression, motivating shock-level conditions for their consistency. We discuss and illustrate several practical insights of this framework in the setting of Autor et al. (2013), estimating the effect of Chinese import competition on manufacturing employment across U.S. commuting zones.

Ecological footprint : managing our biocapacity budget
\"Ecological overshoot is shaping the 21st century. In Ecological Footprint, Mathis Wackernagel advises us to run our economies on regeneration, rather than by liquidating the planet. He explains the key tool for the job - footprint and biocapacity accounting - and how it applies to companies, cities, and countries\"-- Provided by publisher.

Misperceived Social Norms
We show that the vast majority of young married men in Saudi Arabia privately support women working outside the home (WWOH) and substantially underestimate support by other similar men. Correcting these beliefs increases men’s (costly) willingness to help their wives search for jobs. Months later, wives of men whose beliefs were corrected are more likely to have applied and interviewed for a job outside the home. In a recruitment experiment with a local company, randomly informing women about actual support for WWOH leads them to switch from an at-home temporary enumerator job to a higher-paying, outside-the-home version of the job.

Estimating the Production Function for Human Capital
We examine the channels through which a randomized early childhood intervention in Colombia led to significant gains in cognitive and socio-emotional skills among a sample of disadvantaged children aged 12 to 24 months at baseline. We estimate the determinants of parents’ material and time investments in these children and evaluate the impact of the treatment on such investments. We then estimate the production functions for cognitive and socio-emotional skills. The effects of the program can be explained by increases in parental investments, emphasizing the importance of parenting interventions at an early age.
