How Peer Abusive Supervision Affects Sales Employees' Customer Knowledge Hiding: The Roles of Rivalry and Schadenfreude.

Psychol Res Behav Manag

School of Economics and Management, Southwest University, Chongqing, People's Republic of China.

Published: May 2022

Purpose: This study aims to examine the impacts of peer abusive supervision, perceived rivalry and schadenfreude over the abused peers on sales employees' customer knowledge hiding.

Methods: We conducted multiple regression analyses of 283 sales employees' responses from two Chinese and two South Korean electronic device companies to test the hypotheses, which constitute a theoretical framework.

Results: Our empirical results confirmed the positive impact of peer abusive supervision on sales employees' customer knowledge hiding, with the relationship moderated by rivalry and schadenfreude; moreover, rivalry and schadenfreude jointly exert the greatest impacts on the main effect.

Conclusion: This study sheds light on the knowledge hiding literature, with theoretical implications for the research regarding the spillover effect of abusive supervision, rivalry, schadenfreude, customer knowledge sharing, and managerial practices about the management of customer knowledge among sales employees.

Calcium levels modulate embryo yield in microspore embryogenesis.

Front Plant Sci

January 2025

Cell Biology Group - Instituto para la Conservación y Mejora de la Agrodiversidad Valenciana (COMAV) Institute, Universitat Politècnica de València, Valencia, Spain.

Calcium (Ca) is a universal signaling cation with a prominent role as second messenger in many different plant processes, including sexual reproduction. However, there is much less knowledge about the involvement of Ca during embryogenesis processes. In this work we performed a study of Ca levels during the different stages of microspore embryogenesis in , with special attention to how Ca can influence the occurrence of different embryogenic structures with different embryogenic potential.

Background: Educational research highlights active approaches to learning are more effective in knowledge retention and problem-solving. It has long been acknowledged that adapting to more active ways of learning form part of the challenge for new university students as the pedagogical distance between the didactical approach largely followed by secondary school systems the world over differs quite significantly from the often more student-led, critical approach taken by universities. University students encounter various learning challenges, particularly during the transition from secondary school to university.

Background: Loneliness and social isolation can occur at any stage of life, but some predictors may be more common among older adults. Due to growing population ageing, loneliness and social isolation are relevant social issues. Many studies apply the main definitions of loneliness and social isolation offered by the literature without considering how individual representations, socio-cultural context and the culture of care may influence their perception.

To further the development of an in vitro model that faithfully recapitulates drug disposition of orally administered drugs, we investigated the utility of human enteroid monolayers to simultaneously assess intestinal drug absorption and first-pass metabolism processes. We cultured human enteroid monolayers from 3 donors, derived via biopsies containing duodenal stem cells that were propagated and then differentiated atop permeable Transwell inserts, and confirmed transformation into a largely enterocyte population via RNA sequencing analysis and immunocytochemistry (ICC) assays. Proper cell morphology was assessed and confirmed via bright field microscopy and ICC imaging of tight junction proteins and other apically and basolaterally localized proteins.

The Stroll Safe Randomized Controlled Trial: Program Effects on Falls Self-Efficacy.

J Am Med Dir Assoc

January 2025

Biostatistical Collaboration and Consultation Core, Department of Biostatistics, School of Global Public Health, New York University, New York, NY, USA.

Objective: Outdoor falls can negatively impact the health and functional abilities of community-dwelling older adults. Although there are existing evidence-based programs for falls prevention, none specifically target outdoor falls. To fill this gap in research and practice, the Stroll Safe program was developed.
