“…Many of the respondents (66%) are female. A low proportion of the respondents finished a high school (15%) and secondary school (21%), while many (64%) only had an elementary degree or lower, supporting the notion that street vendors generally have low education attainment (Al-Jundi et al , 2020; Liu et al , 2014; Muyanja et al , 2011; Song, 2020). A large proportion of them (57%) are middle-aged adults, whereas 23% and 20% are older adults and young adults, respectively.…”

PurposeCOVID-19 presents a serious and unprecedented challenge around the globe. Street vendors are the most vulnerable group during this pandemic regarding livelihood loss and contagion risk. This research aims to examine the roles of risk communication work in enhancing COVID-19 risk perceptions and adoption of COVID-19 preventive behaviors among street vendors.Design/methodology/approachThe data were collected from the street vendors in urban Vietnam. A binary probit model was used for analyzing the relationships among exposure to risk communication, risk perception and adoption of preventive behaviors.FindingsThe analysis reveals the outreach of risk communication work to the street vendors. A rather large proportion of the respondents perceive high risks associated with COVID-19. All respondents adopt COVID-19 preventive behaviors; however, the proportion of regular adoption is moderate and even very low for most behaviors. Their frequent exposure to risk communication significantly raises their risk perceptions and encourages their regular adoption of preventive behaviors, particularly regarding the measures that are affordable and less detrimental to their livelihood.Originality/valueThis research is among the first attempts to examine exposure to risk communication to the vulnerable group, how they perceive risks and the extent to which they adopt preventive behaviors during a public health crisis. This research draws some implications for risk communication and social welfare policies to obtain sustainable development goals.

“…First, SEM is well recognized among researchers, as many of the concepts of social science are latent variables that can only be measured via observed indicators (Hair et al, 2017 , 2019 ; Latan and Noonan, 2017 ). Second, SEM is more powerful than factor analysis, path analysis, or multiple linear regression and has already been used in similar studies (Al-Jundi et al, 2019 , 2020 ; Shujahat et al, 2020 ; Ali, 2021 ; Ali et al, 2021a , b ; Wang et al, 2021a ). Third, SEM takes into consideration measurement error in the observed variables involved in a corresponding model (Fornell and Larcker, 1981 ).…”

This study examined the relationship between urban culture and street vending. Prior research on this topic is limited and inconclusive. Therefore, we have proposed an integrated model to test the positive effect of urban culture on street vending using multiple mediations of consumption patterns, resistance, and microfinance. We tested a sample of 425 responses that reflect the public opinion in Baghdad, Iraq. These responses were collected between September and November 2018. A partial least squares–based structural equation modeling is employed to test the validity of measurement models and the significance of the entire structural model, predictive power, and mediation analysis. We found that resistance mediates the effect of urban culture on street vending; low-income consumption and resistance sequentially mediate the effect of urban culture on street vending, while resistance mediates the effect of a lack of microfinance on street vending. The direct impact of culture on street vending is not significant, and a lack of microfinance positively influences the pervasiveness of trading on streets. This study contributes to the extant literature as it proposed and tested a novel and comprehensive model to analyze the relationship between urban culture and street vending, simultaneously examining the effects of culture, consumption, resistance, and microfinance on street vending.

“…Moreover, the PROCESS macro, a regression‐based approach, was employed to calculate the mediation, moderation, moderated mediation, and conditional process analyses, simultaneously (Hayes, 2018). The PROCESS macro is an excellent procedure for analytically integrating the mediation, moderation, and conditional mediation and moderation analyses into a unified statistical model; it provides the t statistics, p values, significance levels, corresponding percentiles, and BCa bootstrap CIs for total and specific indirect and interaction effects (Ali et al, 2019; Ali, Ali, Grigore, et al, 2020; Al‐Jundi et al, 2020). The research model in Figure 1 shows that the mediation process in the model is dependent on a moderating variable (i.e., the institutional entrepreneurial environment).…”

“…“Model 7” was selected for the analyses in this study. For the PROCESS analyses, the latent variable scores of the constructs obtained from the PLS‐SEM analysis were applied (Ali et al, 2019; Ali, Ali, Grigore, et al, 2020; Al‐Jundi et al, 2020). When the 95% CIs for the moderated mediation model did not include zero, it suggested that the indirect or moderation mediation effects were significant (Hayes, 2018).…”

Individual entrepreneurial orientation, value congruence, and individual outcomes: Does the institutional entrepreneurial environment matter?

Although entrepreneurial orientation (EO) at the firm-level is often conceptualized as a direct antecedent of performance, the findings of previous studies lending support to this association are inconsistent. Consequently, drawing on the attraction/ selection/attrition and institutional theories and employing the moderated mediation analysis approach, this study conceptualizes the individual perception of a firm's EO or individual entrepreneurial orientation (IEO). It examines the direct and indirect effects of IEO on individual outcomes measured in terms of performance expectation, job involvement, and organizational commitment. More specifically, it examines whether these effects are mediated by value congruence and moderated by the institutional entrepreneurial environment to understand these inconsistent findings better. Using a sample of 398 environmentally concerned small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in South Korea, partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), and the PROCESS macro were employed to analyzed the research model. This study finds that value congruence mediates the association between IEO and performance expectation, job involvement, and organizational commitment. The moderated mediation model analysis also suggests that the mediating role of value congruence increases as the level of the institutional entrepreneurial environment increases. These findings offer useful theoretical and managerial implications of the IEO on individual outcomes.
