    Conceptualising and measuring relationship as public diplomacy outcome: Development of the Relationship Assessment of Diplomatic Interaction Outcome (RADIO) scale

    No full text
    In response to calls for developing an instrument to measure public diplomacy outcomes, this paper introduces the <i>Relationship Assessment of Diplomatic Interaction Outcome</i> (RADIO) scale. Developed based on the <i>Organisation–Public Relationship Assessment</i> (OPRA) scale in public relations, the RADIO scale measures relationship between a country and its foreign publics as public diplomacy outcome. It classifies relationships into two types: experiential (characterised by direct experiences with a country) and reputational (those without direct experiences). Two macro- dimensions (i.e. interactional bilateralism and power mutuality) and two micro-dimensions (i.e. trust and empathy) are proposed for both relationship types. Relational satisfaction and relational continuance are proposed as micro-dimensions for experiential relationships. Relational attentiveness and relational curiosity are proposed as micro-dimensions for reputational relationships. Implications of the RADIO scale also are discussed

    Determinants of employee turnover intention: Understanding the roles of organizational justice, supervisory justice, authoritarian organizational culture and organization-employee relationship quality

    No full text
    This study seeks to identify associations amongst organizational justice, supervisory justice, authoritarian organizational culture, organization-employee relationship\ud quality and employee turnover intention. An online survey (n=300) was conducted in South Korea. Organizational justice and supervisory justice are positively associated with organization-employee relationship quality while authoritarian organizational culture is negatively associated with it. In addition, there is positive association between authoritarian organizational culture and turnover intention. This study contributes to the lack of research on organization-employee relationship quality as a predictor of employee turnover intention and a mediator between authoritarian organizational culture and turnover intention

    Who are publics in public diplomacy? Proposing a taxonomy of foreign publics as an intersection between symbolic environment and behavioral experiences

    No full text
    Existing literature on public diplomacy has generally defined foreign publics as the global constituents with whom a country builds relationships through its public diplomacy efforts. However, not all foreign publics are the same; they represent a collection of separate public opinions. As such, foreign publics need to be segmented and differentiated in order for countries to strategically invest their resources and optimize public diplomacy outcomes. In light of this, this paper proposes a taxonomy which approaches the concept of foreign publics as an intersection between symbolic environment and behavioral experiences. By classifying foreign publics into four segments (i.e., ambassadorial, advocational, accusational, and adversarial), this paper explains the formation and characteristics of each segment of foreign publics, as well as their implications for a country&apos;s public diplomacy efforts.

    The origins of distant voicing: Examining relational dimensions in public diplomacy and their effects on megaphoning

    No full text
    Extant literature has discussed the similarities between public relations and public diplomacy. This study seeks to contribute to existing research on the application of organization public relationships (OPR) to public diplomacy by further exploring relational dimensions in public diplomacy and empirically testing them based on a model consisting of antecedents (i.e., political, economic, interpersonal, cultural and corporate interactions), relational dimensions (i.e., interactional bilateralism, power mutuality, trust, empathy, relational satisfaction, relational continuation, relational attentiveness and relational curiosity), and consequences (i.e., positive and negative megaphoning). A total of 490 respondents from the United States were recruited on Amazon M-Turk to respond to survey items regarding China and Mexico. Confirmatory factor analysis and regression analysis were conducted. The findings indicate: (a) positive associations between the antecedents and the relational dimensions, (b) positive associations between the relational dimensions and positive megaphoning, and (c) negative associations between the relational dimensions and negative megaphoning.

    Conspiratorial thinking in the workplace: how it happens and why it matters

    No full text
    PurposeAlthough belief in conspiracy theories has been researched since the 1970s, specific research on conspiratorial thinking in the workplace is scarce. Conspiratorial thinking could be fostered among employees in workplaces because of unequal power relations resulting from the organizational hierarchy. This study examines workplace conspiracy attribution (WCA) as employees&apos; attribution of problematic events in the workplace as being plotted by powerful actors within their organizations and tests its antecedents and consequences.Design/methodology/approachA survey dataset collected from employees in South Korea (N = 600) was used. This study tested three variables (i.e. two-way communication, employee-organization relationship quality, and perceived ethical orientation) as antecedent conditions of WCA and two outcome variables (i.e. turnover intention and whistleblowing potential) as consequences.FindingsPerceived ethical orientation mediates the relationship between two-way communication and WCA. WCA was found to be positively associated with turnover intention and whistleblowing potential.Originality/valueThis study adopts a public relations lens to understand the significant roles of WCA in reducing turnover intention and whistleblowing potential. It expands existing knowledge of the significance of power and power disparities in organizations.

    TAM 2.0

    Most courses in the Computer Science Bachelor at the Delft University of Technology make use of lab sessions. During these lab sessions students can ask questions about course material and get feedback on their assignment. Moreover, their knowledge about assignments can be orally tested. In order to properly help the students, teaching assistants, or TAs, are selected to assist the lecturer during the lab sessions. With the number of students in the Bachelor quickly growing, the process of manually recruiting students to become a TA and assigning the TAs to lab sessions is becoming very time consuming and almost impossible. During a Bachelor End Project in 2018 four students (van Deursen et al., 2018) created the Teach- ing Assistant Management (TAM) platform. This project aimed to ease the process of recruiting and scheduling TAs. All parties involved in the process of appointing TAs can use TAM to provide their input. Lecturers can register their courses on TAM and students are able to indicate their interest and availability to help with different courses. However, the first version of TAM missed a number of important features. For example, student avail- ability data had to be extracted manually and teachers still had to email their TA selection to the coordinator. This project aims to continue and improve TAM with these missing features. In order to achieve this goal TAM 2.0 has been developed. TAM 2.0 consists of three components: a MySQL database, a back end written using Spring and Java containing the business logic, and a front end website created using Vue to provide an interface to its users. TAM 2.0 also integrated LabraCORE. LabraCORE provides user and course information to several platforms and stores it conveniently in one central place.TAMComputer Science and Engineerin
