“…A study was conducted to determine credibility and trust of information privacy. This survey was tested on a pilot group of 376 people from Germany, the Philippines, China, Japan, South Korea, Paraguay, Russia, Brazil, Thailand, USA and the UK (Marcial and Launer, 2021). The respondents were asked to fill out the 162-question, 4-point and 5-point Likert scale survey.…”

“…The results show that the r- values are 0.7 (technologies, privacy, and protection, netizenship) and 0.8 (features, people operation). This is a good indicator of test–retest reliability and validity properties (Marcial and Launer, 2021). Following the pretest, questionnaire items with a low r -value were removed in the final survey.…”

“…Thinking preferences . We developed a Likert-scale-based (1 = strongly disagree; 4 = strongly agree), 21-item battery to assess individuals’ favored thinking preferences: rationality, heuristics, general intuition, unconscious intuition and anticipation (Marcial and Launer, 2021; Launer and Svenson, 2023). The measure considers a range of constructs from cognitive psychology to form scales.…”

Purpose Employees may feel overwhelmed with information privacy choices and have difficulties understanding what they are committing to in the digital workplace. This paper aims to analyze the role of different thinking styles for effort reduction, such as the use of intuition, when employees make decisions about the credibility and trustworthiness of workplace information privacy issues in Slovakia. While the General Data Protection Regulation sets precise requirements for valid consent, organizations are classified as data controllers and are subject to credibility judgments by their employees. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected from 230 employees in Slovakia using a survey questionnaire. Quantitative analysis using SPSS was conducted to describe employees thinking preferences when judging the credibility of information privacy in their organizations. Findings The survey participants revealed their perceived credibility and trust in personal data protection and thinking preferences. Unconscious thinking is the type of effort reduction often reported by participants, who perceive high credibility and trust in personal data protection. This study can help managers and data controllers in small- and medium-sized enterprises in reflecting about the way in which people use different thinking processes for decision-making about information privacy in their organizations. Research limitations/implications This study set out to explore how decision-making processes at the workplace relate to credibility of data practices. Focusing on the use of different types of intuition, the authors explored whether the preference for a specific decision-making style can explain the perceived credibility of data practices. The part of the workforce in the sample did not have a strict predisposition to use either intuitive or rational thinking. Practical implications The contribution provides scholars with an overview of the field of intuition, a field that is likely to grow given the challenges of digitalization for organizations, such as shitstorms, cyberattacks and whistleblowing. Originality/value The most well-known concepts from intuition research, e.g. the dual process theory, and practice are tested simultaneously, therewith contributing to the applied literature on domain-specific preferences for intuition and deliberation in decision-making.

“…Employees often expect direct and clear guidance rather than looking for solutions independently. Marcial and Launer (2019) discussed aspects of digital trust in contemporary businesses of LATAM, Asia, USA and Europe. Joyce (2018) defined digital trust as confidence in people's capability to build a secure digital world.…”

“…We recommend to continuing studying and optimizing the WFH setup, including setup elements that address concerns of digital trust and cyber security (Joyce, 2018; Marcial and Launer, 2019). Our findings echo the ILO (2020) report and analyses of several others (Aczel et al , 2021; Barrero et al , 2021; Bellmann and Hübler, 2021; Carillo, 2003; Maurizio, 2021; Restrepo and Zeballos, 2022).…”

Purpose This paper aims to answer the question of the future of work-from-home (WFH) from the position of productivity and employee well-being. In this research, the authors studied the future of WFH by analyzing perceived home productivity and work–life balance (WLB) in the WFH environment. This paper attempts to say that WFH is here to stay, and business leaders should acknowledge this fact and adjust their strategy. Design/methodology/approach The authors used a heterogeneous sampling method, surveying 1,157 employees in Mexico on productivity and WLB. The authors did three independent interventions in different pandemic stages: beginning – in 2020, peaking – in 2021, and calming down – in 2022. The authors used contingency table analysis to research the influence of perceived productivity and WLB in WFH on employees’ propensity to WFH. Findings The results show that employees perceive productivity the same or higher when WFH and WLB same or better. The findings of this study are a wake-up call for managers who refuse to embrace changes in employees’ perceptions and needs. Companies refusing to acknowledge the existing need for WFH may face significant challenges in terms of employee satisfaction and retention. Originality/value This study contributes to the broader literature by addressing whether WFH is here to stay. The dynamics of returning to office vary from country to country, industry to industry and business to business. This paper is an answer to the future of WFH for Mexico and the Latin American region.

The adoption of Industry 4.0 technology is essential for achieving energy efficiency, a critical aspect of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) no. 12 aimed at addressing climate change. Understanding the impact of Sustainable Attitudes, Digital Trust, and Uncertainty Avoidance is crucial in the decision-making process regarding the implementation of Industry 4.0 technology. The slow adoption of Industry 4.0 technology is attributed to non-technological factors or people, while the need to achieve energy efficiency targets necessitates examining the influence of Sustainable Attitudes and Digital Trust as supporting variables, along with Uncertainty Avoidance, on technology adoption. The study employed a quantitative explanatory research approach to investigate the relationships and impacts of variables. It centered on employees of Schneider Electric Indonesia, a global Industry 4.0 technology provider, with a sample of 189 employees selected through random sampling, incorporating a 5% margin error from Slovin formula. The analysis involved the use of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS version 26. Industry 4.0 technology is essential for fostering innovation and business expansion, leading to a sustainable environment by offering principles, guidance, and energy-efficient technologies for companies. The involvement of Sustainable Attitude, moderated by Uncertainty Avoidance, is vital in reaching energy efficiency goals through Industry 4.0 implementation.
