How Technology, Health Information Seeking, and Socioeconomic Factors Are Associated With Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination Readiness in Estonians Over 50 Years?

Despite the proven effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines in preventing severe illness, many individuals, including older adults who are most susceptible to the virus, have opted against vaccination. Various factors could shape vaccination decisions, including seeking health information (HI). The internet is the primary source of HI today; however, older adults are often referred to as those missing out on digital benefits. The study explores the correlations between information and communication technology (ICT) use, online HI seeking, socioeconomic factors, and COVID-19 vaccination readiness among individuals aged 50 and above in Estonia. The survey data were gathered from 501 people aged 50 and older after the first lockdown in 2020. The outcomes revealed that vaccination readiness positively correlated with factors such as higher educational attainment, greater income, male gender, access to ICT, a readiness to employ digital technologies for health-related purposes, a greater demand for HI, and a higher frequency of seeking it online. There was some discrepancy in the preference of HI sources; for example, vaccination consenters preferred online versions of professional press publications and specific health portals. Based on the findings, it is advisable to encourage older adults to utilize the internet and new technology for health-related purposes. This practice expands the range of information sources available to them, ultimately enabling better decision-making regarding their health behaviors.

Unveiling the TFP Nexus with ICT and IPRs: An Empirical Analysis of Textile & Apparel Industry of Pakistan

Textile and apparel industries of Pakistan are the largest industrial sector contributing about 60% to total exports and 25% of value-added of the manufacturing sector. The degree of competitiveness in this sector is closely associated with their Total Factor Productivity (TFP), which can be enhanced through trade liberalization, efficient and effective use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), protection of intellectual property rights (IPRs) along with the investment in human capital, and advertisement expenditures. Additionally, investment in machinery and equipment and the role of subsidies cannot be ignored in enhancing TFP growth. This study utilizes data from the 2005-06 Census of Manufacturing Industries. Total factor productivity has been calculated employing the methodology of Tomiura (2007). The results indicate TFP is positively and significantly affected by ICT, IPRs, investment in machinery & equipment, human capital, import duties, subsidies for exports on TFP growth. The safeguarding textile and apparel industries from foreign competition relocates resources towards improving TFP whereas incorporation of ICT and IPRs enables firms to realize benefits of foreign developed technology which further improves TFP growth. Furthermore, the effect of advertising expenditures on TFP is positive but it lacks statistical significance.

Linking information technology use with corporate entrepreneurship: The mediation role of openness to external knowledge

AbstractFirms are increasingly applying multiple information technologies (ITs) to pursue corporate entrepreneurship. However, how different ITs can be leveraged collectively to achieve corporate entrepreneurship remains largely underexplored. Drawing upon the knowledge‐based view, we develop an integrative theoretical model to delineate how three types of commonly deployed IT (i.e. organisational enterprise systems use, organisational social media use and top management team social media use) can be used collectively in the knowledge acquisition and utilisation processes to achieve corporate entrepreneurship. Specifically, we posit that organisational IT uses (i.e. organisational enterprise systems use and organisational social media use) enhance openness to external knowledge in the knowledge acquisition process, which in turn serves as the mediation mechanism to channel organisational IT uses into corporate entrepreneurship. Moreover, top management team IT use (i.e. top management team social media use) shapes the effect of openness to external knowledge on corporate entrepreneurship in the knowledge utilisation process. The empirical analysis using multi‐respondent survey data from 1252 managers in 313 firms provides strong support for the proposed model. This study contributes to the information systems research on how IT influences corporate entrepreneurship by distinguishing the roles of organisational enterprise systems use, organisational social media use and top management team social media use in enhancing corporate entrepreneurship through firms' openness to external knowledge.

Socio-Cultural Factors and Components of the Digital Economy in Ethnic Minority Regions

We define the digital economy as all economic activities conducted through the use of information technologies, including activities to create new markets, expand old ones, and produce digital goods and services. The digital economy has become a major driver of sustainable development and the transition towards a greener economy. However, studies show an unequal level of progress among cities, regions, and countries. Consequently, this paper explores the associations between socio-cultural factors (such as attitudes towards marriage/raising a family) and components of the digital economy (such as expenses/investment in ICT and the proportion of personal computers and the Internet in households). This study specifically examines twenty-two ethnic minority regions in Russia with data covering a five-year period. Using the Pearson correlation coefficient, the results show that socio-cultural factors including a large urban population and high divorce rates were positively associated with the digital economy, whereas a large rural population, higher birth rates, and higher natural population growth were negatively correlated with the digital economy.

Intelligent Speech Elderly Rehabilitation Learning Assistance System Based on Deep Learning and Sensor Networks

Recently, deep learning has been proved to significantly improve the quality of speech recognition. Convolutional neural networks are often used in speech recognition tasks because of their special network structure and powerful learning function. In order to solve the problem that the traditional convolutional neural network can not reflect the one-dimensional basic attributes of speech signal, this paper proposes to set the number of frames for one dimension of convolution kernel, and use one-dimensional model and two-dimensional convolutional network model for speech recognition. By moving the convolution kernel of time axis and frequency band, it can adapt to the time change of speech signal and maintain the correlation between frequency bands to a great extent. At the same time, this paper also discusses the speech signal preprocessing, feature parameter extraction and regularization algorithm. Due to the lack of hospital resources, the lag of information technology, the poor ability of accompanying and other reasons, the current accompanying service for elderly rehabilitation can not meet the needs of elderly patients. The rapid development and wide use of information technology provide opportunities for the optimization of health services for the elderly. In view of the difficulty of word memory and interpretation in current rehabilitation courses, a VR intelligent teaching system based on intelligent voice technology is developed. The application results show that the system can effectively improve the ability of language expression and word writing. At present, the system of intelligent speech function has not been completed, and lacks speech synthesis function. The next research will focus on the use of speech synthesis technology, in order to realize the man-machine dialogue between people and the system, and show a more real training situation.

Production Chain Organization in the Digital Age: Information Technology Use and Vertical Integration in U.S. Manufacturing

Advances in information technology (IT) may affect the organizational design of production. Exploiting the rapid diffusion of the internet in the United States, we assess the sensitivity of production chain organization to this innovation in IT access and use. Extending theories of the firm that recognize the importance of downstream transfers (selling as opposed to sourcing) and plural governance in organizational design, we predict IT-driven shifts in downstream vertical integration. In a detailed panel of Census Bureau data for over 5,600 manufacturing plants, we observe the extent of a production unit’s downstream transactions within the firm alongside concurrent sales to external customers—a mix we refer to as plural selling. Our main finding is that the use of the internet for external coordination precipitated a significant decline in downstream vertical integration across the manufacturing sector. Instrumental variables estimation points to a causal relationship but also heterogeneous treatment effects. Key drivers of plural organization, such as complementarities and constraints across differently governed transactions, help explain such heterogeneity, as does concurrent use of internal production management IT. Our study is the first study to leverage a plural governance framework and large-scale microdata to understand how U.S. production chain organization shifted in response to this rapid and far-reaching technological change.
