 * New takeaways regarding Indian food sustainability
   
   Researchers in India have expanded the well-known theory of planned behaviour
   to obtain useful marketing and policy insights concerning the sustainability
   choices of consumers when it comes to food. The work, published in the
   International Journal of Sustainable Society, analysed data from 440 Indian
   households via self-administered questionnaires, which were then analysed
   using structural equation modelling. The addition of three variables –
   environmental knowledge, personal norms, and product attributes – not
   commonly used in traditional TPB model allowed the researchers to extract
   implications for various stakeholders, including producers, marketers,
   government agencies, and policymakers.
   
   Priyanka Garg and Ashish Kumar of the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha
   University in New Delhi, and Raj Kumar Mittal of the Chaudhary Bansi Lal
   University in Haryana, India, demonstrated that their extended model could
   account for much of the variance in behavioural intentions. It showed that
   product attributes are the strongest predictor of sustainable food
   consumption behaviour. By contrast, and perhaps surprisingly, social norms
   had far less influence on the choices made by consumers. This, the team
   suggests, implies that factors such as food labelling, quality, and price
   must play a significant role in shaping choice rather than societal and peer
   pressure.
   
   This research sits in the middle of growing global food and environmental
   crises. We are seeing continued population growth, environmental degradation
   and habitat loss, as well as the detrimental effects of climate change. As
   such, there are increasing pressures on agriculture and food resources. This
   is all despite, and perhaps in some ways, because of technological advances.
   There is a pressing need to shift our approach to food security towards more
   sustainable options. Sustainable dietary practices, including the consumption
   of local and plant-based foods rather than intensively produced meat
   products, could play a role in this. The side effects might even be a boost
   to our overall health, as well as a reduction in the environmental impact of
   food production. However, making such changes requires commitment and our
   ability to overcome many deeply ingrained cultural and social practices.
   
   There is potential to change attitudes through clear, informative food
   labelling as well as educational campaigns to emphasize the benefits of
   sustainable food products. If marketing strategies can be aligned with
   addressing the ongoing crises, then consumer preferences might change and we
   could see the more widespread adoption of sustainable food choices. However,
   the market share for sustainable food products remains low. This suggests the
   need for a concerted effort from all stakeholders – producers, marketers,
   governments, and campaigners – to persuade consumers to make the sustainable
   choice.

 * Five whys failed M.O.
   
   The "five whys" technique is a problem-solving approach that involves
   repeatedly asking "why" to uncover the root cause of a failure. It is widely
   used in manufacturing, healthcare, information technology, aerospace and
   aviation, and in the service industries. However, it has limitations, not
   least a lack of understanding of how to use the approach correctly. Research
   in the International Journal of Six Sigma and Competitive Advantage has now
   looked at how the method can be used as either a superficial brainstorming
   tool or a rigorous investigative process and that understanding the approach
   in detail is essential to good quality control and safety in many different
   sectors.
   
   The "five whys" is the modus operandi of many a root-cause analysis. It is a
   systematic approach that can be used to identify the causes of a given
   problem or failure so that a recurrence might be prevented. Matthew Barsalou
   of QPLUS in Manama, Bahrain, Beata Starzynska of Poznan University of
   Technology in Poznan, and Maria Konrad of Spawmet Zbigniew Kaczmarek in
   Ostrów Wielkopolski, Poland, explain that the efficacy of the "five whys"
   method works by alternating between asking "why" and conducting empirical
   investigations to validate each cause identified. For instance, if a bolt
   breaks and the answer to the question "why?" is simply because it was a weak
   or faulty bolt, then simply replacing it with a stronger bolt may well fail
   to address the underlying issue if the true cause of the bolt's demise was
   vibration in the system. The correct use of the "five whys" ensures that the
   underlying cause is found and mitigated.
   
   The team has carried out a comprehensive review of the literature in this
   area and categorized the descriptions of the "five whys" problem-solving
   approach into three distinct groups. The first is the simplified approach
   that merely asks why without empirical evidence. The second is the empirical
   approach that requires actual investigation following each "why?". The third
   is ambiguous use, where the item in the research literature was unclear as to
   the precise usage of the method. The researchers found that more than half of
   the research literature described the "five whys" as a simple brainstorming
   tool. Only a minority highlighted the necessity of empirical investigation to
   validate each step.
   
   The team followed up their review by surveying organisations about their use
   of the "five whys" method. This survey vindicated the review findings to
   reveal that many organisations simply used the "five whys" as a brainstorming
   method rather than an investigative approach. However, they note that those
   organisations that used the method frequently were more likely to recognize
   the importance of thorough investigation to back up the answer to each
   question "why?"
   
   The problem that is obvious in retrospect is that the approach is being
   misused widely, leading to ineffective solutions and unresolved issues.
   Brainstorming alone is usually insufficient to identify the true cause of a
   problem, whereas empirical investigation after each "why" ensures solutions
   are based on verified causes, leading to more reliable and effective
   problem-solving.

 * Rock-solid research for mineral froth
   
   Research in the International Journal of Mining and Mineral Engineering
   introduces a new approach to controlling mineral processing that uses active
   sensing. This method embeds intelligence within sensor systems, significantly
   reducing the need for human intervention in the process to improve efficiency
   and precision in mineral separation processes. Even tiny improvements in
   efficiency can have a major economic impact on processing of ores containing
   copper, lead, and zinc, and even more so in the case of precious metals.
   
   Active sensing involves the integration of intelligent sensor systems that
   minimize human involvement by optimizing measurement processes. These systems
   use a combination of different measurements to put detailed information into
   the broader context. Primary measurements are precise but limited in range
   while auxiliary measurements provide broader, but more diffuse, data that can
   be used to guide the primary sensors to specific areas of interest that need
   detailed measurements.
   
   Mikko Salo, Teijo Juntunen, and Risto Ritala of Tampere University in
   Tampere, Finland, have looked at this approach for froth flotation, an
   important process used in mineral processing. Froth flotation separates
   minerals based on how they interact with water, their water-repellent, or
   hydrophobic, character. A slurry of mixed minerals and water is treated with
   reagents to make certain particles hydrophobic, this makes them accumulate on
   air bubbles and so rise to the surface as froth. This froth containing much
   of the mineral of interest from the slurry can be scooped off as concentrate
   for further purification and processing. The remaining slurry, known as
   tailings, flows out of the system.
   
   In most contexts, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis is used to measure
   mineral concentrations in froth flotation. While XRF is precise, it is slow
   and expensive. It also only works sequentially, typically measuring multiple
   slurry lines one after the other, which also reduces efficiency.
   
   As a cost-effective alternative, visible and near-infrared (VNIR) spectral
   measurements might be used. VNIR measurements works faster, with one
   measurement every three seconds, instead of one every five minutes with XRF.
   But VNIR data is less accurate than XRF and needs continuous calibration
   based on XRF data.
   
   To overcome these limitations, the researchers have developed a control
   architecture using a linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller with
   exception handling. They have used a simulated environment with plant data
   from the froth flotation process to test this approach. They demonstrated
   that the architecture optimizes the measurement sequence and incorporates
   interruptions when VNIR data detects anomalies. This ensures timely and
   accurate responses to process disturbances.

 * The answer to job stress? Why, a pet!
   
   Research in the International Journal of Management Practice has looked at
   the relationship between job stress and well-being in people who are pet
   owners. The work suggests that pets can play a significant part in their
   owners' lives beyond the obvious role of owning a pet. Jehn-Yih Wong,
   Ying-Ying Cheng, Chia-Ying ChouHua, and Shih-Hao Liu of Ming Chuan University
   in Taipei, Taiwan, surveyed 228 pet owners in order to investigate how job
   stress impacts life satisfaction and emotional exhaustion and to determine
   whether a strong attachment with a pet can ameliorate these potentially
   detrimental effects.
   
   Job stress is defined as anxiety, dissatisfaction and other negative emotions
   associated with one's work. They can all affect emotional and physical
   health. The researchers reiterate earlier findings that found that high
   levels of job stress are linked to decreased life satisfaction and increased
   emotional exhaustion. They raise the idea of coping mechanisms and used
   structural equation modelling and multi-group analysis to tease out the
   relationships better pet owners with a strong emotional attachment to their
   animals and job stress.
   
   Intriguingly, the team found that while pet attachment did not actually
   influence a person's overall life satisfaction, it had an effect on emotional
   exhaustion in those suffering job stress. Pet owners with stronger
   attachments to their pets actually reported higher levels of emotional
   exhaustion than those with weaker attachments. This seems to be a
   counterintuitive finding that suggests that while pets provide significant
   companionship and emotional support, a deeper attachment may also amplify the
   emotional burden during stressful periods. Conversely, it might be that those
   people with strong attachments to their pets are more likely to be in touch
   with their emotions and able to recognise and express that kind of exhaustion
   more readily than others.
   
   Less paradoxically, those pet owners who felt a strong bond with their pets
   did report that the negative impact of job stress on life satisfaction was
   less pronounced. Similarly, the reported greater emotional exhaustion
   associated with job stress in those people was somewhat mitigated by having a
   pet. This indicates that pet attachment can serve as a form of social
   support, helping to buffer against the adverse effects of stress in a manner
   similar to support from close human relationships.

 * Filling the expat employee gender gap
   
   A study in the European Journal of International Management sheds light on
   gender differences in how job embeddedness affects expatriates. This is
   especially true when individual face unexpected challenges, the research
   suggests.
   
   Job embeddedness theory says that individuals who feel a strong sense of
   integration with their work environment and community are less inclined to
   leave their jobs, even during difficult times. The theory hinges on three
   primary dimensions: fit, links, and sacrifices. "Fit" describes the alignment
   an individual feels with their job and community. "Links" refer to their
   interpersonal connections, both at work and within the community.
   "Sacrifices" are the perceived costs associated with leaving their current
   environment. The more embedded someone is in terms of these various factors,
   the less likely they are to leave their job, particularly when they face
   unexpected events, "external shocks", that might prompt them to reconsider
   their position.
   
   Sonja Sperber of Vienna University of Economics and Business in Vienna,
   Austria and Christian Linder of the University of Côte d'Azur, Suresnes,
   France, explain that research in this area has tended to focus on male
   expatriates. As such, there is an obvious and significant gap in our
   understanding of job embeddedness. The team hopes to begin to fill this gap.
   They have analysed data from expatriates in the United Kingdom and used
   Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) to identify what factors influence
   employment turnover intentions among male and female expatriates having faced
   some kind of shock.
   
   Migration and the movement of skilled female workers in particular has become
   an important trend in recent years and is not expected to decline. It is
   known that many female expatriates face issues not experienced by their male
   counterparts. Many of these issues are associated with why they have
   migrated, the cultural adjustments they must make, the balancing of family
   responsibilities, and the management of gender stereotypes. These factors can
   affect their experience and also whether they choose to remain in their
   position when faced with shocks.
   
   The team found that the concept of "fit" appears to be more crucial for
   female expatriates. This suggests that women tend to prioritize how well they
   align with their job and community. In contrast, male expatriates apparently
   emphasize the "sacrifices" involved in leaving their job, indicating a
   greater focus on the costs of leaving their current position.
   
   Such differences point to a need to consider gender-specific perspectives in
   job embeddedness theory and human resource management practices.
   Understanding the differences will allow HR managers and others to develop
   more nuanced and effective support mechanisms for expatriate employees. A
   one-size-fits-all approach is wholly inadequate, the work would suggest.
   Gender-sensitive human resource policies could be critical in helping
   expatriate employees cope with shocks, and at the same time help

 * Blockchain redefines e-commerce
   
   Cross-border e-commerce has transformed international trade. Nowhere are the
   changes more keenly felt than in China where e-commerce has moved business
   away from traditional, large-scale trade towards more fragmented,
   personalized, and frequent transactions. Small and medium-sized enterprises
   (SMEs) along with solo entrepreneurs are now at the forefront of this change.
   
   Banban Mao of Hunan Vocational College of Commerce and Hua Tian of the Hunan
   International Economics University, China, discuss the impact of this change
   on the "green" food industry. The sector focuses on environmentally friendly
   and sustainable food production and has embraced technology such as "big
   data" and collaborative innovation where information sharing and coordination
   across the entire supply chain, from producer to retailer is critical to
   success. Writing in the International Journal of Information and
   Communication Technology, the team discusses how the implementation of
   intelligent supply chain collaboration and the integration of online and
   offline operations can allow the green food industry to respond more
   effectively to market demands and the evolving internet economy.
   
   The team points out that these changes have not been without their
   challenges. The rapid rise of cross-border e-commerce has meant an increased
   reliance on third-party platforms, and this builds information silos and
   complicates data sharing and transparency. The researchers add that the
   complex nature of the supply chain also makes it difficult to verify product
   legitimacy and quality as well as adding logistical challenges that reduce
   efficiency.
   
   Additionally, high cross-border payment costs and security risks, coupled
   with the various international regulations and legal standards, add obstacles
   to what might otherwise be seamless trade operations.
   
   Blockchain technology might well offer a way to address many of these
   problems. Blockchain provides a secure and transparent method for recording
   transactions and sharing information. Thus, by establishing a cross-border
   e-commerce alliance chain, blockchain could be used to streamline
   intermediary processes and enhance trust among participants. The research
   demonstrates how technology might add value to the green food supply chain.

 * Virtually transforming classrooms with the Internet of Things
   
   Education has already been transformed radically by technological
   advancements and by societal changes. Traditional, classroom and
   lecture-based models have evolved into more interactive and engaging
   approaches. However, challenges remain, and the student experience is not
   always as they and their educators might hope for. A study in the
   International Journal of Information and Communication Technology has looked
   at how virtual reality (VR) technology might be integrated with Internet of
   Things (IoT) teaching platforms to create a more immersive and interactive
   educational experience for certain parts of the curriculum.
   
   Dafei Wu of the School of Information Engineering at Hunan University of
   Science and Engineering in Yongzhou, Hunan, China discusses how VR technology
   provides an immersive environment and could for many students enhance
   traditional teaching methods by offering a dynamic and engaging platform.
   When combined with the IoT that allows interconnected devices to interact
   with their environment and exchange data, the potential of VR might be opened
   up even further, changing how educational content might be delivered and so
   experienced.
   
   Wu suggests that this kind of integration could lead to novel teaching
   methods paradigm to the benefit of students. It might even be tailored to be
   more closely aligned with society and industry requirements from the
   educational system. Conventional teaching methods often keep theoretical and
   practical learning separate, the world of VR technology coupled with the IoT
   might help better support teaching objectives and student development.
   
   Fundamentally, with such an approach, students might access course materials
   and engage with content at any time and anywhere, thus allowing them to
   experience continuous learning and develop skills at their own pace within
   the overall educational framework. This, Wu suggests, might be particularly
   useful on courses where the demand for resources often exceeds availability.
   
   "Simulation results demonstrate VR's extensive applicability, offering a
   broader and more open educational platform," concludes Wu. He adds that
   "Future endeavours should focus on effectively combining immersive IoT with
   higher education to enhance educational outcomes."

 * Supply chains under pressure
   
   Recent upheavals in the global market have put supply chains under immense
   pressure and the logistics and road transportation sectors are struggling to
   keep apace with geopolitical tensions, rampant inflation, and the rising
   demand for sustainability as well as many other issues. Rising energy costs
   and a shortage of qualified drivers are also adding to the burden. Research
   in the International Journal of Industrial and Systems Engineering has looked
   at the potential for Horizontal Logistics Collaboration to overcome many of
   the problems.
   
   Taher Ahmadi, Jack A.A. van der Veen, and V. Venugopal of the Nyenrode
   Business Universiteit in Breukelen, The Netherlands, and Mehdi A. Kamran of
   the German University of Technology in Oman, Muscat, Oman, discuss how HLC
   involves different companies combining their transportation or logistics
   activities to mutual benefit in the face of the afore-mentioned growing
   challenges. This strategy aims to enhance economic, social, and environmental
   outcomes by optimizing the use of vehicles and so reduce transportation costs
   as well as carbon emissions.
   
   However, while the theoretical benefits of HLC are well-documented, practical
   implementation has not lived up to expectations, the work suggests. The main
   obstacle is a lack of understanding regarding the hidden coordination costs,
   particularly those associated with inventory and warehousing.
   
   The new study has investigated the complexities of HLC and developed a
   quantitative model of two supply chains. Each supply chain includes a single
   buyer and supplier situated in different regions. The model then compares and
   contrasts two scenarios: a standalone case in which each buyer manages
   transportation independently, and a second HLC scenario wherein the buyers
   coordinate inventory replenishments and deliveries using shared transport
   vehicles.
   
   The team found that while the HLC scenario did reduce transportation costs
   and carbon emissions, it also introduced a downside in terms of higher
   warehousing costs. This increase stemmed from the need for synchronized, but
   less-than-optimal, ordering frequencies. The extra warehousing costs could
   negate the benefits of HLC as well as adding a layer of complexity to the
   decision-making process for companies considering this collaborative
   approach.
   
   Nevertheless, the study shows just how important it is to evaluate the total
   costs for transportation and warehousing, rather than simply focusing on the
   potential transportation savings. Of course, there may well be ways to
   optimize such an approach and make it work better for all parties involved.
   If collaborating parties can mesh more effectively in terms of geographic
   proximity and order frequency, then they might gain all the pros with
   much-reduced cons of HLC.

 * Shedding light on deepfake detection
   
   The emergence of so-called deepfake technology, which commonly involves the
   generation of fake images, video, and sound that seem so authentic as to
   confuse even expert viewers and listeners is at the point where it can
   influence important aspects of our lives, such as politics, finance, and
   beyond. This new era of deception sees sophisticated image and video
   forgeries making the headlines. Often these deepfakes are identified quickly,
   but sometimes the damage may well already be done once the deepfakes are
   called out, especially given the rate in which videos and other digital media
   can go viral on social media.
   
   Digital manipulations that alter or completely synthesize faces, have become
   alarmingly convincing, contributing to fake news and eroding public trust in
   digital media. Research in the International Journal of Autonomous and
   Adaptive Communications Systems has led to a new approach that spots
   illumination inconsistencies within images and so can identify whether a
   video or photograph is a deepfake.
   
   According to Fei Gu, Yunshu Dai, Jianwei Fei, and Xianyi Chen of Nanjing
   University of Information Science and Technology in Nanjing, China,
   deepfakes, which can be classified into four main types: identity swaps,
   expression swaps, attribute manipulations, and entire face synthesis. Each
   poses different threats and risk to. Identity swaps, where one person's face
   is replaced with another's, and expression swaps, which transfer facial
   expressions from one individual to another, are particularly worrying.
   Deepfakes can cause serious harm to the reputation and perception of the
   individuals or groups that are being deepfaked.
   
   The usual approach to deepfake detection is to take a binary classification
   approach. However, the conventional approach can fail if the video or images
   are highly compressed or of poor quality. Compression and quality can
   obfuscate facial features and reduce the trust in deepfake detection.
   
   Even expert deepfakers can falter when it comes to getting the lighting
   matched perfectly between altered and unaltered regions in an image or video.
   It is this issue that Gu and colleagues have focused on in their detection
   method, which uses a neural network to spot illumination discrepancies.

   localisation based on illumination inconsistency', Int. J. Autonomous and
   Adaptive Communications Systems, Vol. 17, No. 4, pp.352–368.

 * Restructuring middle managers
   
   Middle managers play an important role in an organisation undergoing
   structural change. They are the ones who must implement the changes, but
   conversely as employees they will be subject to the very changes they put in
   place. This can often put them in a place of conflicting demands, where they
   must manage their own stress and uncertainty while carrying out new
   directives that will affect their colleagues and subordinates.
   
   A study in the International Journal of Work Organisation and Emotion has
   taken a major bank as a case study in order to look at how middle managers
   might cope with this stress during corporate restructuring and what
   strategies they might use to overcome the stress and find their way around
   the many challenges.
   
   Pravitha Jogie, Annemarie Davis, and Catherine Le Roux of the Department of
   Business Management at the University of South Africa in the City of Tshwane
   suggest that middle managers generally respond to corporate restructuring in
   one of two ways. They either cope or they "cop out" and evade the
   responsibilities placed on them in some way. The team explains that coping
   usually involves proactive strategies such as positive reframing, where
   managers view themselves as agents of change and engage with the process.
   Positive reframing allows middle managers to perceive restructuring as an
   opportunity for growth and improvement. By contrast, "copping out" refers to
   disengagement and withdrawal behaviour, such as territorialism, where the
   middle manager protects their own interests and is perhaps involved in
   spreading rumours, all of which can disrupt the restructuring process but
   also provide something of a psychological escape route for the managers who
   engage in such behaviour.
   
   The business environment has always been marked by constant change where
   globalization, economic fluctuations, technological advancements, and
   international crises affect the way a company operates and its bottom line.
   The team explains that the financial services sector faces particularly
   intense competition, regulatory changes, and digital transformation. These
   factors have led to frequent organizational restructuring for many companies,
   which puts pressure on the middle managers to interpret, communicate, and
   implement new structures and strategies.
   
   The research suggests that it is obviously better that middle managers cope
   rather than cop out, and points to the learning of new skills and networking
   with peers and mentors as being useful tools to help in this regard. They
   even suggest that engaging in hobbies or other "extracurricular" activities
   might be useful coping mechanisms. It is possible then for a manager to
   maintain a sense of control and purpose, as this is essential for their
   mental well-being and their productivity in the workplace, as well as
   ensuring the same for colleagues and subordinates.
   
   However, the research often showed the converse. Middle managers might become
   withdrawn and disengage from the task at hand. This was especially common
   among managers who felt powerless or unsupported, indicating a need for
   organisations to foster a supportive environment to ensure smooth
   restructuring when this is needed.
