Resource-based view theory perspective of information technology capabilities on organizational performance in hospitality firms: a time-lagged investigation

Abstract

Purpose This study aims to investigate the link between information technology capabilities (ITC) and organizational performance (OP) in the hospitality industry by focusing on the indirect effect of sustainability practices, service innovation (SINO), service improvement (SIMP) and the moderating role of top management support (TMS). Design/methodology/approach Time-lagged survey data from 488 hotel managers in the United Arab Emirates was used in this study to examine the hypotheses by the PROCESS Macro. Findings The authors found significant support for our framework, demonstrating that ITC are linked with OP. The study found that ITC and OP are sequentially mediated by sustainability practices, SINO and SIMP. Additionally, the influence of information technology (IT) capabilities on OP is moderated by TMS, whereas TMS also enhances the sequential mediating effect of sustainability practices, SINO and improvement, such that the sequential mediating effect is stronger when TMS is at a high level. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to examine the sequentially moderated mediating effect of sustainability practices and then SINO and SIMP between ITC and OP using a time-lagged design in the hospitality industry.

Turning Lemons into Lemonade: Social Support as a Moderator of the Relationship Between Technostress and Quality of Life Among University Students

“…The principal axis factoring method revealed that the first factor accounted for only 25.83% of the variance, indicating a minimal impact of CMB, as corroborated by prior studies. [99][100][101][102] Furthermore, the sample adequacy measure, with a value of 0.917, surpassed the acceptable threshold of 0.80, confirming the adequacy of the sample size for this study.…”

Exploring drivers of behavioral willingness to reduce plastic consumption and socially responsible consumption behavior: A stimulus–organism–behavior–consequence paradigm based environmental management perspective

“…This approach, increasingly prevalent in contemporary research, facilitates multiple survey administrations within a specific study framework (Mehmood, Jabeen, Rehman, et al, 2023;Shah et al, 2023). By leveraging data from diverse sources, this method effectively mitigates the risks associated with common source bias (CMB) (Alkatheeri et al, 2023;Mehmood, Zia, Alkatheeri, et al, 2023). Additionally, the time-lagged approach's inherent design, which allows for intervalbased data collection, further diminishes CMB concerns (Podsakoff et al, 2003;Mehmood, Kautish, Mangla, et al, 2024).…”

Navigating a net‐zero economy future: Antecedents and consequences of net‐zero economy‐based green innovation

“…The study involved senior-level managers from each SME, who received a comprehensive briefing on the research objectives and data collection procedures. A time-lagged approach, in line with recent empirical studies (Mehmood, Zia, et al, 2023;Shah et al, 2023), was adopted to gather data at different time intervals. This approach is widely recognized in contemporary research as it permits researchers to conduct surveys for specific research objectives at multiple time intervals.…”
