“…Indicators were calculated using formulas presented by Lee [ 75 ]. Maximal Reliability (MaxR(H)) a measure of maximum reliability [ 72 ] as an alternative reliability index to coefficient alpha was also measured [ 76 ]. The accepted values were 0.7 or higher for the CR and MaxR(H) and), and 0.5 for AVE [ 77 ].…”

“…The Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) based on the maximum likelihood estimation [71] was conducted with AMOS 26.0 free version statistic package to test the best model to represent the experimental data. Also, the reliability and validity of the dimensions were estimated using CFA [72]. Multiple criteria to evaluate the goodness-of-fit of data to the measurement model, as suggested in the literature, were used [73].…”

The main aim of the present study was to develop, validate and test an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) that contributes to the overall understanding of students' intention to use digital tools in a blended learning context of higher education. The external bidimensional factor of familiarity with digital tools, which is not usually explained by the TAM, was included, and evaluated. Following a four-stage scale development technique, a seven-dimensional 25-item survey was developed, which includes two external correlated variables: familiarity with high-tech digital tools and familiarity with traditional digital tools, two mediator variables-computer anxiety, and perceived barriers, and three response variables, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and intention to use. The initial version of the survey was administered on 250 undergraduate students. Next, for another sample of 206 students, latent dimensions of the survey were tested using exploratory factor analysis. The structure of the survey was validated in two other subsequent stages with one sample of 262 responses of undergraduates and one of 310 responses of master's students from two different universities. All students who agreed to participate in research attended blended learning. The validity, reliability and invariance of the instrument were established by psychometric analyses. Collected data indicated that the survey has an adequate multifactorial structure that is reliable and invariant across degree levels. The scale is recommended for use in higher education studies targeting the promotion of blended learning and reduction of negative attitudes of learners toward digital instruments, supporting university professors to select their own efficient way to teach.

“…Considerando que la evidencia empírica citada presenta estudios realizados en empresas de otras regiones del mundo como Asia (Chang y Lee, 2008;Nguyen, 2018), Oceanía (Darroch y McNaughton, 2002), África (Ode y Ayavoo, 2019), y Europa (Cerne et al, 2013Walecka-Jankowska, 2015), se resalta la imperativa necesidad de tratar de explicar la relación entre estas variables dentro del contexto latinoamericano. Cabe señalar que esta región ha mostrado problemas para destacar a nivel global en cuanto a la innovación dentro del sector empresarial (GEM, 2018).…”

Gestión del conocimiento y capacidades de innovación incremental en empresas de México y Bolivia

et al. 2020

El objetivo de la presente investigación fue estudiar la relación entre las etapas del proceso de gestión del conocimiento y las capacidades de innovación incremental en 159 empresas de México y Bolivia. La metodología empleada fue cuantitativa con un alcance correlacional y diseño no experimental donde fueron empleados dos cuestionarios con escala Likert de cinco puntos, los cuales fueron validados mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio. Por medio del empleo de correlación y regresión lineal, este estudio muestra que la gestión del conocimiento se asocia de manera significativa y positiva con las capacidades de innovación incremental. Se concluye que la socialización, externalización, combinación e internalización del conocimiento influyen significativamente sobre el desarrollo de las capacidades de innovación incremental.

“…The former makes it possible to create knowledge, in which context learning takes place as a result of a process of experimentation. The latter seeks efficiency instead, applying existing knowledge to alternative uses and generating an adaptive kind of learning, mainly based on repetition (Ode & Ayavoo, 2020;O'Reilly & Tushman, 2008;March, 1991). In turn, Holmqvist (2004) sees exploration and exploitation as two interdependent processes, exploration being a prerequisite for exploitation.…”

Organizational ambidexterity in subsidiaries of knowledge-intensive sectors

et al. 2020

In the knowledge society, multinationals and, more specifically, their subsidiaries acquire great importance as a source of competitiveness for the multinational as a whole. From this perspective, this article has a double objective: (1) to define ambidextrous subsidiary, and (2) to explore if subsidiaries are ambidextrous. A quantitative methodology is used on a sample of 102 Spanish subsidiaries of foreign multinationals from knowledge-intensive sectors. Findings show that the subsidiaries analyzed are highly explorers of knowledge. However, despite the coherence between the roles played and their international competitive strategies, not all subsidiaries turned out to be ambidextrous. Only those with an integrated player role and transnational strategies can be considered as such.
