The present qualitative study seeks to synthesize the definition and concept of cybervetting in the talent acquisition landscape. There is limited holistic understanding about the cybervetting process model and its various stages followed by organizations. Further, the study seeks to identify from recruiters the kind of information extracted from the Internet and social media platforms and the consequent positive and negative cues inferred to assess the suitability of job seekers. To address these issues, a longitudinal qualitative study was undertaken, involving two waves of data collection from recruiters (HR professionals) to understand these dynamics.

The psychology of online shopping success: Insights on social media analytics and customer feedback

Publication Name: Acta Psychologica

Publication Date: 2026-04-01

Volume: 264

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: Unknown

Description:

Social media analytics (SMA) practices are playing a vital role in improving online store performance by creating insights about customer preferences, trends, and behaviors. Social media analytics (SMA) practices are a critical contributor to boost online store performance by creating insights on customer preferences, trends and behaviors. The effective utilization of such analytics helps online retailers to adjust their marketing strategies, increase customer engagement, and ultimately boost their sales. This study examines the dynamic link between SMA and customer engagement in online retail firms with special focus on the moderating role of customer voice (promotive and prohibitive) in determining the performance outcomes. Specifically, it examines the impact of consumers' promotive and prohibitive voices on the relationship between customer engagement and online store performance. Using a time-lagged study and data obtained from 407 online stores across three survey waves, the findings show there is a strong positive relationship between SMA and customer engagement. In addition, both promotive and prohibitive customer voice are found to positively moderate the engagement-performance relationship, increasing the effect of engagement on operational outcomes. The study concludes with implications and future research directions.

Organisational responsible AI implementation and organisational foresight: The role of leadership control and managerial cognitive flexibility

Publication Name: Technological Forecasting and Social Change

Publication Date: 2026-06-01

Volume: 227

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: Unknown

Description:

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have introduced new challenges related to privacy, transparency, and accountability, which have important implications for managerial decision-making. Although prior research has examined the adoption of AI in supply chain management, limited attention has been paid to how responsible AI interacts with managers' cognitive flexibility to shape organisational foresight. Drawing on Transaction Cost Economics, this study examines the combined effects of implementing responsible AI governance and leadership-enacted organisational control on the development of organisational foresight. This study contributes to organisational foresight research by explaining how the responsible implementation of responsible AI governance enhances organisations' ability to anticipate and interpret future developments through managerial cognitive flexibility. This research highlights responsible AI as a mechanism for balancing automation and human judgment, reinforcing the importance of human-centric governance in data-driven decision environments. Organisations should implement responsible AI alongside enabling leadership practices that encourage autonomy, experimentation, and reflective interpretation, as excessive control can undermine the cognitive flexibility necessary for developing organisational foresight.

Speaking up with passion: Voice, leadership, and helping behavior in public organizations

Publication Name: Acta Psychologica

Publication Date: 2026-06-01

Volume: 266

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: Unknown

Description:

Healthcare delivery depends not only on technical expertise but also on the willingness of clinicians to speak up and to support one another in demanding environments. Drawing on Self-Determination Theory, this study explores how prosocial voice fosters helping behavior through the energizing role of work passion, and how ethical leadership shapes this process. Using a three-wave, multi-source design, we obtained 306 matched employee–leader dyads from public hospitals. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that prosocial voice enhanced work passion, which in turn predicted helping behavior. Mediation analysis confirmed the indirect effect, while moderation results revealed that ethical leadership amplified the passion–helping relationship, producing a significant conditional indirect effect. These findings extend theoretical work by positioning passion as a motivational mechanism that explains how voice translates into prosocial outcomes, and by showing that ethical leadership provides the contextual support necessary for this process. These results provide practical guidance for strengthening supportive climates and leadership practices that enable clinicians' discretionary contributions.
