Yang, Xiangyu; Vesarach Aumeboonsuke (National Institute of Development Administration, 2024)
High-quality higher education can provide a solid support for the achievement of sustainable development goals and the development of human resources. However, the current stage of higher education development in Yunnan Province is still at the starting type, requiring innovative teaching within the constraints of limited economy and resources to pursue high-quality education.· This study aims to investigate how perceived organizational support influences innovative teaching among university teachers in Yunnan Province, and explores the roles of knowledge sharing, organizational- citizenship behavior, and transformational- leadership- in- this influencing mechanism. This research targeted full-time teachers from four universities in Yunnan Province and collected data through an online survey. The data analysis was conducted by Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLSSEM). The results show that knowledge sharing, under the influence of perceived organizational support, can actively promote innovative teaching. Organizational citizenship behavior plays a mediating role in the relationship between perceived organizational support and knowledge sharing. In addition, transformational leadership can effectively moderate the interactive relationship between perceived organizational support, knowledge sharing, and innovative teaching. This study can scientifically and effectively help Yunnan Province and similar regions promote innovative teaching.

The influence of negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion on employee turnover behavior: based on multimotive model and affective events theory
Zhang, Yilan; Vesarach Aumeboonsuke (National Institute of Development Administration, 2024)
In recent years, the phenomenon of workplace exclusion has gradually attracted wide attention from academia and management practice. However, most studies mainly focus on the negative consequences of workplace exclusion, while the research on its negative perception avoidance is relatively scarce. The purpose of this study is to explore how the negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion affects employees’ turnover intention and turnover behavior through the moderating effects of multiple multimotive responsess (prosocial responses, avoidance/withdrawal, antisocial responses) and self-perception, and to provide new theoretical support for business management practice. This study adopts the questionnaire survey method, takes the employees of high-tech enterprises as the research object, and collects valid samples for empirical analysis. Based on the multimotive model, self-perception theory and affective events theory, this study constructed a research model to verify the relationship between negative perception avoidance, multimotive responses, self-perception, turnover intention and turnover behavior of workplace exclusion through quantitative analysis. The results show that negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion can significantly affect employees’ multimotive responses. Specifically, negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion promotes prosocial responses and reduces avoidance/withdrawal and antisocial responses. At the same time, prosocial responses significantly reduced turnover intention, while avoidance/withdrawal and antisocial responses significantly increased turnover intention. In addition, turnover intention has a positive impact on turnover behavior, and the negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion has a negative impact on turnover behavior. The study also found that self-perception has a significant moderating effect between multimotive responses and turnover intention, and a high level of self-perception can alleviate the negative impact of negative motivation on turnover intention. Through empirical verification, this study expands the application of multimotive theory and affective events theory in the study of workplace exclusion, reveals the dual influence path of negative perception avoidance of workplace exclusion on employee turnover behavior, and provides important theoretical basis and practical guidance for enterprise managers to reduce employee turnover rate by means of emotion management and employee self-perception improvement. Although this study has some limitations in sample scope and data collection methods, its findings provide new ideas and inspiration for subsequent research and management practice in related fields.
Exploring the role of psychological capital in human capital retention: evidence from the turnover tendency of young teachers in Chinese colleges
Li, Huawei; Marisa Laokulrach (National Institute of Development Administration, 2024)
The higher education system in China has undergone tremendous changes in the past few decades, with a notable feature being the rapid rise and development of private universities. After decades of development, private higher education has shown strong vitality with flexible and diverse forms of operation and management mechanisms. With the continuous development and reform of China's higher education system, private universities have played an important role in the cultivation of talented teachers and social services. By the end of 2023, there were 789 private universities in China, accounting for 25.66% of the total number of universities in the country, and they have become an important part of higher education in China. With the rapid development of private universities, private university teachers are a rapidly growing professional group in the current field of education. As the core force of education and teaching, they are the cornerstone of the survival and prosperity of private universities, and play a crucial role in improving teaching quality and the reputation of educational institutions. In recent years, the problem of teacher turnover in private universities has become increasingly severe due to factors such as society, environment, economy, and development. The significant loss of teaching staff has to some extent hindered the development of private universities and has also attracted considerable attention from various private universities. As an important part of the teaching staff in private universities, the continuous loss of young teachers will inevitably weaken the stability of the entire teaching staff. In the long term, it will affect the development of institutions and have adverse effects on individual teachers and the entire education system. In order to explore the influencing factors on the turnover of young teachers in private universities in China and provide a theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures, this study combines social cognition theory, the March and Simon Model, and psychological capital theory to construct a comprehensive theoretical model that includes professional identity, social intelligence, perceived behavioral control, and psychological capital as independent variables, job satisfaction as a mediating variable, organizational support as a moderating variable, and teacher turnover intentions as a dependent variable. This provides a multidimensional and multi-level analytical framework for future related research. This research uses the snowball sampling questionnaire survey method to select young teachers under the age of 40 from private universities in Henan, Guangdong, Shandong, and Hubei provinces, which rank among the top four in terms of the number of private universities in China, as the research subjects for the data collection. After organizing the collected questionnaire data, descriptive statistical analysis, reliability, validity, and structural equation modeling were used to verify whether the hypothesis was supported. The results of this analysis are as follows: psychological capital plays an indispensable role in human capital retention, and psychological capital is positively correlated with the job satisfaction of young teachers in private universities, with a significant negative impact on turnover intention. There is a significant positive correlation between professional identity and job satisfaction among young teachers in private universities, and a significant negative impact on turnover intention. Social intelligence has a positive impact on job satisfaction among young teachers in private universities and a significant negative impact on turnover intention. There is a significant positive correlation between perceived behavioral control and job satisfaction among young teachers in private universities, but there is no negative impact on turnover intention. Job satisfaction had a significant negative impact on turnover intention and played a mediating role in the effects of professional identity, perceived behavioral control, and psychological capital. Organizational support plays a significant moderating role in the impact pathways of professional identity, social intelligence, psychological capital, and job satisfaction on turnover intentions. The results of this study provide a new perspective for understanding the trend of young teacher turnover in private universities. Our study article proposes targeted countermeasures and suggestions on how private universities can use psychological capital theory and social cognitive theory to attract and retain young teachers. These measures will not only improve teachers' job satisfaction, reduce their turnover tendency, and effectively retain human capital, but will also promote the long-term stable development of institutions and the improvement of education quality, which plays an important role in promoting the stability and development of the education system.

Enhancing higher education management innovation with digitalization: a case study of Universities in Guangxi, China
Zhou, Hongbo; Li, Renliang (National Institute of Development Administration, 2024)
This dissertation is entitled: Enhancing higher Education Management Innovation with digitalization: A Case Study of Universities in Guangxi, China. It has three main research objectives as follows: 1) to explore the reasons influencing the enhancement of educational management innovation in universities; 2) to analyze the mechanisms through which the aforementioned reasons impact management innovation in universities; 3) to propose enhancement strategies for educational management innovation in Chinese universities based on the influencing factors and mechanisms identified. This study adopts a qualitative research method, specifically including: 1) Documentary study approach. The study primarily collected data from university official websites, university annual reports related to educational management and innovation were searched to obtain data on management methods, student performance evaluation, university rankings, etc., from three universities. 2) In-depth interview method using random sampling and snowball technique. The snowball technique involved sending interview letters to target university administrators through the dean of the author's college, who then recommended qualified individuals as interviewees. Through the snowball technique, interviewees from the three universities were identified, and senior leaders from each university were interviewed using semi-structured interview guides as data collection tools, which were then analyzed using qualitative research methods. 3) Focus group method. After the in-depth interviews, a focus group session was held, inviting managers and teacher representatives from the three universities in Guangxi who were interviewed. The focus group aimed to: 1) Form a consensus: Acknowledge and agree on the results obtained from the in-depth interviews and literature review; 2) Make brainstorms: Propose strategies and implementation approaches for educational management innovation in universities; 3) Enhance innovation: Achieve enhancement in educational management innovation through documentary study, in-depth interviews, focus groups, and brainstorming. Research findings: 1) The factors influencing the enhancement of educational management innovation in universities during the digital age stem from two main sources. The first source includes three fundamental factors: policy support, training mechanisms, and evaluation systems. In terms of policy support, universities benefit greatly from the strong backing of national and local governments, with relevant policies and plans providing clear guidance and support for university development. In terms of training mechanisms, universities have made significant progress in routine training for teachers and administrative staff, but there is still room for improvement in training related to innovation awareness and practical abilities. Regarding evaluation systems, universities have performed relatively well in evaluating students' comprehensive qualities, receiving wide recognition. However, there remain shortcomings in the diversity of evaluation methods, such as a lack of varied assessment approaches. Second, three key internal factors contributing to innovation in universities are teaching model innovation, university management innovation, and digital technology innovation. In terms of teaching models, universities have successfully implemented student-centered innovations, significantly enhancing students' practical abilities and comprehensive qualities. On the management level, universities have effectively adopted goal-oriented approaches and promoted overall development through teamwork and university culture building. However, there is room for improvement in the work efficiency and satisfaction of both teachers and students, particularly by listening more to their voices and optimizing resource allocation. In the area of digital technology innovation, universities have successfully established digital campuses and online teaching platforms, which have greatly improved management efficiency and teaching quality. Nonetheless, universities still face clear challenges in using technologies like the internet and big data for deeper innovation in educational management, improving management transparency, and advancing educational modernization. 2) Mechanisms of Influence on University Management Innovation in the Digital Age Policy support, training mechanisms, and evaluation systems have had a profound impact on educational management innovation in universities. Firstly, policy support provides directional guidance and implementation pathways for educational management innovation, laying a solid foundation for innovative practices through multi-faceted support such as funding and talent resources. Secondly, training mechanisms have sparked motivation for innovation among teachers and administrative staff through professional development programs, offering them the latest educational concepts and management methods while fostering a culture that encourages innovation. Lastly, evaluation systems, by setting scientific and reasonable evaluation metrics and standards, clarify innovation goals and directions. The evaluation process also serves a motivational function, identifying problems in innovation and pushing for improvements, thereby ensuring the successful operation of educational management innovation. Educational management innovation has facilitated the achievement of educational goals by improving teaching models, applying digital technologies, and optimizing resource allocation. A close relationship and interaction have been formed between policy support, educational management innovation, and the realization of educational objectives. Policy support drives the development of educational management innovation, which in turn influences the attainment of educational goals. These three elements complement each other, jointly promoting the continuous progress and enhancement of university management innovation in the digital age. 3) Strategies for Enhancing Educational Management Innovation in Chinese Universities Through focus groups and a SWOT analysis, we identified the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats faced by universities and proposed a series of targeted development strategies. For example: strengthening internal capabilities to address external challenges, optimizing resource allocation to secure competitive advantages, expanding external collaborations to compensate for internal shortcomings, and driving innovation to expand strengths. The aim of implementing these strategies is for universities to stand out in the highly competitive market and achieve sustained, stable development. Keywords: Universities in Guangxi, China, Digitization, Higher Education Management Innovation, Enhancement Strategies
Unleashing product innovativeness: Investigating the synergy of ambidextrous leadership, organizational agility, knowledge-based dynamic capabilities, and the moderating role of entrepreneurial orientation: evidence from AI industry of the Yangtze river delta region, China
Zhang, Shuxin; Sid Suntrayuth (National Institute of Development Administration, 2024)
This study investigates how ambidextrous leadership (AL) influences product innovativeness (PI) through the mediating effects of organizational agility (AG) and knowledge-based dynamic capabilities (KBDCs), with entrepreneurial orientation (EO) moderating these relationships within firms in the artificial intelligence (AI) industry. A quantitative research method was applied, employing a survey questionnaire administered to 405 respondents across 76 AI firms located in the Yangtze River Delta region of China. Respondents were randomly selected from reputable databases. Structural equation modeling (SEM) with AMOS 26 was used to evaluate model fit and test hypotheses, with data analyzed using covariance-based SEM. Results reveal that ambidextrous leadership has a significant positive effect on product innovativeness, organizational agility, and knowledge-based dynamic capabilities. KBDC and AG both mediate the positive relationship between AL and PI, enabling an analysis of both direct and indirect connections among these factors. Interestingly, the findings indicate that opening leader behaviors alone did not significantly influence product innovativeness, while closing leader behaviors had a substantial impact on it. Additionally, the study examined the moderating effect of entrepreneurial orientation on the interrelationships among these variables; notably, higher EO intensified the impact of AL on PI, as well as the effects of AG and KBDCs on PI. This study expands existing knowledge on leadership dynamics in the context of new product development, emphasizing the importance of adaptable leadership. It iv provides a novel perspective by examining the intricate relationships among AL, AG, KBDC, PI, and EO, particularly focusing on the relatively new concept of ambidextrous leadership. The study makes a substantial contribution by analyzing the mediation and moderation effects within this framework, shedding light on the mechanisms driving product innovativeness, marking one of the earliest investigations in this field. These findings offer valuable insights for firms aiming to optimize critical knowledge resources, foster product innovation, and enhance competitive competencies.
Factors influencing consumer's purchase intention in e-commerce live streaming shopping--based on the social presence theory and tam
Xu, Chao; Li, Zhongwu (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
The development of information technology and the popularity of smart devices have gradually changed people's way of production, life, and thinking and promoted the constant replacement of social media. The model of live streaming should emerge in time. With its unique advantages in drainage ability, sociability, and sense of experience, the live streaming mode has attracted much attention. In increasingly increasing industries, a new development opportunity for online e-commerce has valued its powerful ability to monetize content. With the continuous upgrading of consumption mode, consumers pay more and more attention to the sense of experience in consumption, and the traditional online shopping mode of "graphics" has been increasingly unable to meet consumer demand. The "e-commerce + live broadcast" mode has received wide attention in this context. It perfectly integrates the "person-goods - field", and novel forms of commodity information presentation and communication have brought consumers more accurate visual and perceptual experiences. E-commerce live streaming has become an important way for consumers to shop and a new way to obtain information and carry out social activities. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to study consumers' purchase intention in live streaming shopping to develop e-commerce live streaming. This study collected 453 online data of consumers who use live streaming shopping, aiming to determine the main factors influencing consumers' willingness to use live streaming shopping. The relevant features of live streaming shopping are deconstructed into interactivity and vividness; combined with the technology acceptance model (TAM) and the introduction of psychological motivation (social presence), the purchase intention model of live streaming shopping consumers is constructed. The effective sample data were processed by SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 24.0. The research results show: perceived usefulness has the most significant impact on purchase intention, followed by social presence, interactivity, perceived ease of use, and vividness; Social presence had the most significant influence on perceived usefulness, followed by perceived ease of use, interactivity, and vividness. Interaction has the most significant impact on social presence and vividness. Psychological factors are essential in consumers' use of live streaming shopping. Integrating management and psychology expands the research channel of consumers' behavioral intention in live streaming shopping. In practice, the research results provide valuable guidance for live streaming merchants and anchors to formulate effective marketing strategies and suggest specific development for live streaming shopping platforms. Finally, this study's limitations and follow-up research prospects are also explained
A study of the perceived organization supports, organizational identification on work outcomes of Chinese teachers in Thailand-organization-based self-esteem as the moderating effect
Cui, Jianming; Sid Suntrayuth (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
As the relationship between China and Thailand grows more and more closely with each passing day, especially after the "One Belt, One Road" initiative, China and Thailand have increased their exchanges in terms of politics, economy, culture, education and so on. Recently, Chinese language teaching and promotion in Thailand have made great progress, and achieved remarkable results. Its achievements have also become the representative of promoting Chinese language education in the world, among which Chinese teachers play an important role. However, when Chinese teachers first arrive in foreign countries, they will face various difficulties in life and culture. The first is the satisfaction and performance. The satisfaction of Chinese instructors for the job is one of the important reasons that affect overseas teaching and work efficiency. Due to the lack of enough support from schools, leaders and colleagues, Chinese teachers have many problems, such as high turnover rate, low teaching quality and low work performance. Taking Chinese teachers working in Thailand as the research sample, this paper explored how Chinese teachers worked in Thai schools using questionnaire, and investigates Chinese teachers' contemporary circumstances and issues in Thailand using a literature research technique. In view of the situations we have observed, this study analyzes and discusses the factors influencing the overseas work achievements of Chinese teachers from the perspective of social exchange theory and self-regulation theory. This thesis consists of five sections which are respectively the introduction briefly states the research background as well as the current development of Chinese teacher in Thailand, the research problems and purposes as well as the value and significance of the research. The second part, with the help of existing literature, this thesis summarizes the current situation and characteristics of Chinese teacher. As well, the main factors that affect the satisfaction of overseas teaching include organizational support, supervisor support, colleague support and organizational-based esteem. Third, the results and data analysis part. Using SPSS and Amos software, it analyzed and summarized the data and information, tested the questionnaire’s truthfulness, and verified the hypothesis through correlation analysis, regression analysis and other statistical methods. The findings demonstrate that perceived organizational support has no significant impact on job happiness but has a considerable beneficial impact on work outcomes and job performance. On the effectiveness of work efforts, perceived supervisor support also has a big impact. It has a very good effect on both the job happiness and performance of Chinese teachers. The impact of perceived organization support on work results is moderated by organizational-based self-esteem. However, it did not play a moderating role in the impact of perceived colleague support on job satisfaction. We also examine the role that organizational self-esteem plays in reducing the impact of independent variables on dependent variables. Finally, according to the conclusion of the study, it provides the academic and practical implication for the next-step research.
The influence of organizational justice onknowledge-based employees' knowledge hiding behavior--based on theory of planned behavior and emotional exhaustion factor
Du, Yingjun; Sid Suntrayuth (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
This study explored the influence mechanism of organizational justice on knowledge hiding behavior of knowledge workers, and examined the relationship between organizational justice and knowledge hiding behavior, including knowledge hiding attitude, subjective norms, behavioral control, intention and emotional exhaustion. The research is mainly based on Social Exchange Theory (SET), Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) and Conservation of Resources Theory (COR). Survey data for this study was collected from 545 faculty members from 79 colleges and universities in Guangxi, China. The results indicate that organizational justice significantly influences knowledge hiding behavior through the theoretical framework of planned behavior and emotional exhaustion. In addition, emotional exhaustion and knowledge hiding attitudes, subjective norms, behavioral control, and intention play a mediating effect between organizational justice and knowledge hiding behavior. Although procedural and distributive justice did not significantly and negatively affect knowledge hiding behavior, they did affect knowledge hiding attitudes, subjective norms, behavioral control, intention and emotional exhaustion, and ultimately knowledge hiding behavior. This study deepens the theory of knowledge hiding and enriches and improves the theory of knowledge management. In particular, the mediating effect of emotional exhaustion was found in the relationship between organizational justice and knowledge-hiding behavior, thus extending the modeling framework of the theory of planned behavior. The knowledge hiding behavior of knowledge employees is not conducive to the smooth flow of knowledge within the organization, resulting in the waste of existing knowledge resources of the organization and affecting organizational performance and organizational creativity. This study suggests that managers should pay attention to enhancing the organizational justice climate, improving employees' sense of organizational justice, focusing on employees' emotional exhaustion problems, and reasonably selecting knowledge exchange targets, which provide useful practical references for organizations to prevent and reduce the occurrence of knowledge hiding among knowledge workers in advance.
Research on the impact of organizational innovation climate on employee's innovative work behavior
Xu, Ziqing; Sid Suntrayuth (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
Innovation is considered the key to organizations' competitive advantage, which has been shown to succeed in today's competitive work environment. Especially for high-tech enterprises, the living environment of enterprises has undergone significant changes. However, business management is not a simple matter of promoting knowledge workers to carry out sustainable and long-term innovative work behaviors. Compared with ordinary work behavior, innovative work behavior expresses new ideas to achieve innovation. In the antecedents of innovative behavior, the antecedents at different levels are not explored in depth. Therefore, to stimulate knowledge workers' innovation activities, this study is based on the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) model and constructs a three-level impact mechanism model of the external environment, psychological factors, and individual behavior. The main contents include the following parts: Firstly, Based on the research purposes and reviewing the relevant theoretical research, this research involves variable definition, extracting the main leading factors affecting the knowledge staff innovation behavior, analyzing the innovation orientation, and organization climate influence knowledge staff innovation behavior mechanism. This study thought influence R&D worker innovation behavior leading factors include three aspects: first， on behalf of the organization's overall objective environment properties, organization climate, can be regarded as a staff of the external environment stimulation; second, the strength of internal factor, including cognitive status reflects the psychological safety, and intrinsic motivation, which can be regarded as a psychological state of employees. Third, knowledge sharing as a kind of behavior can affect another behavior. This study argues that organization innovation climate has a direct impact on innovative work behavior, at the same time it can also be through psychological safety and intrinsic motivation as mediation variables indirectly influence knowledge sharing. Meanwhile, the R&D workers' knowledge sharing can directly impact innovative work behavior. Based on the effect mechanism, this paper puts forward 11 hypothesis relationships and set up the theoretical relationship model of this study. Second, through questionnaire survey collected data, the empirical test organizational innovation climate for R&D workers behavior influence relationship model. This study selected 446 valid samples from the R&D department of high-tech enterprises in Guangdong province in China through the judgmental sampling method. AMOS 23.0 and SPSS 25.0 was used to analyze the data and performed structural equation modeling (SEM) with the bootstrapping approach. The reliability and validity test, descriptive statistical analysis, show the sample data has good reliability and validity, and can carry out data analysis processing, the result showed that 11 hypotheses obtained data support, to be able to verify. Thirdly, Both the external environment (i.e., organizational innovation climate) and psychological factors (i.e., intrinsic motivation, psychological safety) have a significant positive impact on individual response (i.e., knowledge sharing, Innovative work behavior). Knowledge sharing has the greatest impact on innovative work behavior, meanwhile, psychological factors also have a great impact on innovative work behavior. Besides, psychological factors also mediate the relationship between the external environment and knowledge sharing. The findings indicated that high-tech enterprise should try their best to provide R&D employees with opportunities and platforms for knowledge sharing, and encourage more exchanges and sharing among employees. It must also formulate scientific innovation climate when implementing strategies and continue to shape a harmonious and equal organizational climate. Furthermore, high-tech enterprises should encourage employees to speak the truth, express different voices, and stimulate work enthusiasm to improve psychological safety and intrinsic motivation, enhancing employees’ innovative work behavior.

Yang, Liqian; Aweewan Panyagometh (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
With the development of technology, knowledge service providing platforms are growing quickly. There were 1,021 financial investments totaling up to 131.3 billion yuan in knowledge service providing platforms in the past seven years. The gig economy has also been widely discussed in the last decade. This research is based on the self-determination theory (SDT) with the aim to study how social capital, gig workers’ intrinsic motivation, and extrinsic motivation influence their work satisfaction and commitment, with this study focus on the gig workers who work in the top six knowledge service providing platforms in China. This study provided the contribution of literature on self-determination theory and the application of the gig economy in knowledge service providing platforms industries. The quantitative research method was applied in this research. Online questionnaires were distributed to the respondents to conduct the survey, and a total of 1049 valid respondents were received. The study compared two groups: the gig workers with full-time jobs and the gig workers without a full-time job. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was applied to analyze the data and generate the results. It was found that both groups of gig workers, those with full-time jobs and those without have the same direction in which self-determination and social capital are positively associated with intrinsic motivation. Both intrinsic and external motivation have a positive influence on gig workers’ satisfaction and commitment. Finally, the academic and practical contributions are discussed.
The causes and intervention of young teachers' job burnout in Chinese vocational colleges
Wang, Shaoxian; Li, Zhongwu (National Institute of Development Administration, 2023)
The phenomenon of occupational burnout is widely prevalent in contemporary society, particularly among occupational groups with high levels of repetitive work tasks, such as teachers. This is especially pronounced among young teachers in Chinese vocational colleges, where the issue of occupational burnout has become increasingly prominent, posing a threat to the sustainable development of vocational colleges.Therefore, identifying effective interventions to alleviate occupational burnout and mitigate its negative impacts has become increasingly significant. This study uses young teachers from vocational colleges in Guangxi as the empirical research subjects, employing quantitative analysis to explore the issue of occupational burnout. It combines theoretical research and practical investigation results to propose relevant intervention strategies for occupational burnout. The key findings of this study include: (1) Male teachers experience higher levels of occupational burnout than female teachers, and the incidence rate is highest among teachers aged 36-40. Teachers aged 20-25 have the highest self-efficacy, while the rate of burnout is most serious among lecturers. Teachers with over 15 years of teaching experience have the highest incidence of occupational burnout. (2) Occupational burnout is significantly negatively correlated with transactional psychological capital, interpersonal psychological capital, perceived behavioral control, cognitive social capital, occupational values, as well as self-efficacy. (3) Occupational values play a partial mediating role between transactional psychological capital and occupational burnout, while self-efficacy acts as a moderator in this relationship. Based on the research findings, this paper puts forward a series of intervention strategies for addressing occupational burnout among young teachers in vocational colleges. These strategies take into account the perspectives of teachers, society, as well as schools, with a particular emphasis on enhancing psychological adjustment abilities, improving psychological capital, and developing perceived behavioral control at the teacher level to prevent the occurrence of occupational burnout emotions. The significant contribution of this study lies in not only providing a comprehensive and in-depth theoretical framework that explains the phenomenon and causes of occupational burnout but also offering empirically supported, actionable intervention measures. These measures have important practical implications for alleviating occupational burnout in young teachers, maintaining the stability of the educational environment, as well as realizing the sustainable development of vocational colleges. Furthermore, the research findings also provide new evidence for the theoretical study of occupational burnout and lay the foundation for future research.
Research on the influence of information ecological imbalance on elderly user's use behavior of G2C E-Government
Zhang, Yingxue; Chen, Chih Hung (National Institute of Development Administration, 2022)
The theory of information ecology is a new subject which analyzes the imbalance in supply chain information management by combining the theory of supply chain management, and puts forward corresponding countermeasures from the perspective of information ecosystem balance. In fact, no matter how advanced the information technology is, the premise of its existence is to serve mankind. In society, there is a group of people that can't be ignored - the elderly. When advanced technology no longer serves the elderly, they are frequently labeled as "refugees on the Internet" and "islands of information". In the special time interval of the global COVID-19 epidemic, this situation is getting even worse. Then what is the reason? That's exactly the theme of this paper, including the impact of information ecological imbalance on the willingness of the elderly to learn information technology, and the impact on the use behavior of G2C elderly users.
The influence of reinforcement sensitivity on the extroverted dangerous behavior of Chinese college students--the mediating effect of self-control
Zhang, Juntao; Li, Zhongwu (National Institute of Development Administration, 2021)
As China's college enrollment expanding, the rapid increase in the number of college students, Chinese college students by outgoing dangerous behaviour has triggered a series of negative social phenomenon has caused widespread attention from all walks of life, Therefore, it is necessary to study the influencing factors of extroversion dangerous behavior and find effective prevention and intervention measures. Based on this, this study explores the influencing factors of extroversion dangerous behavior among Chinese college students, the relationship between the dimensions of enhanced sensitivity and self-control, and the influence of the dimensions of enhanced sensitivity and self-control on extroversion dangerous behavior. At the same time, the mediating effect of self-control dimensions on strengthening the relationship between sensitivity dimensions and outward-oriented dangerous behaviors was also studied. Based on the establishment of the scale of consideration. It is found that there is a significant positive correlation between impulsivity and violence in self-control. There was no significant positive correlation between impulsivity and indiscipline. There was a significant positive correlation between impulsivity and theft. There was a significant positive correlation between impulsivity and truancy. It is found that there is a significant positive correlation between reward sensitivity in reinforcement sensitivity and impulsivity in self-control, and a significant negative correlation between reward sensitivity in reinforcement sensitivity and restraint in self-control. There was a significant negative correlation between punishment sensitivity in reinforcement sensitivity and impulsivity in selfcontrol, and a significant positive correlation between punishment sensitivity in reinforcement sensitivity and restraint in self-control.
