Item type:Publication, Using humanness and design aesthetics to choose the “best” type of trust: a study of mobile banking in France(Emerald, 2021-12-15)The research aims to addresses the limitations of previous literature regarding choosing the appropriate conceptualization of trust (i.e. interpersonal trust or system trust) and the role of design aesthetics in generating system trust and intention to adopt mobile banking. Design/methodology/approach: The research conducts two studies. Study 1 determines the degree of humanness in a mobile banking application. Study 2 tests the research model. A total of 261 respondents participate in Study 1 and 491 in Study 2. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) (study 1) and SmartPLS (PLS software) (study 2) are used to test the hypotheses. Findings: Study 1 establishes that the mobile banking application is perceived to have low humanness. Thus, it is expected that system trust is more appropriate to use than interpersonal trust. Study 2 demonstrates that (i) system trust is more useful than interpersonal trust in the mobile banking context and (ii) design aesthetics positively influences consumer system trust and intention to adopt. Originality/value: To the best of the authors' knowledge, the current research is the first to distinguish empirically between system trust and interpersonal trust and identify the best choice of mobile banking trust type. Specifically, the study determined the choice of system trust for mobile banking through a priori humanness measures and validated this choice by measuring both system trust and interpersonal trust, which has not been done before. In addition, retail banking should consider the influence of design aesthetics on consumer trust and incorporate elements that enhance consumers' opinions about the mobile banking application's functionality, reliability and helpfulness. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Affective interpersonal touch in close relationships: a cross-cultural perspective(SAGE Publications Inc., 2021-12-01)Interpersonal touch behavior differs across cultures, yet no study to date has systematically tested for cultural variation in affective touch, nor examined the factors that might account for this variability. Here, over 14,000 individuals from 45 countries were asked whether they embraced, stroked, kissed, or hugged their partner, friends, and youngest child during the week preceding the study. We then examined a range of hypothesized individual-level factors (sex, age, parasitic history, conservatism, religiosity, and preferred interpersonal distance) and cultural-level factors (regional temperature, parasite stress, regional conservatism, collectivism, and religiosity) in predicting these affective-touching behaviors. Our results indicate that affective touch was most prevalent in relationships with partners and children, and its diversity was relatively higher in warmer, less conservative, and religious countries, and among younger, female, and liberal people. This research allows for a broad and integrated view of the bases of cross-cultural variability in affective touch. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Collaboration in Digital Construction: Integrating synchronous and asynchronous practices(Figshare (United Kingdom), 2025-12-01)La transformación digital en el sector de la arquitectura, la ingeniería y la construcción (AEC) está transformando la forma en que las partes interesadas colaboran para crear, intercambiar, entregar e interrogar información. Dos prácticas se han vuelto fundamentales para este cambio: la ingeniería concurrente integrada (ICE), una sesión presencial sincrónica para la colaboración y la toma de decisiones en tiempo real, respaldada por la metodología de diseño y construcción virtual (VDC), y los entornos de datos comunes (CDE), sistemas asincrónicos basados en la nube para la creación, el intercambio, la aprobación y la publicación controlada de información bajo la norma ISO 19650. A pesar de la creciente adopción de la colaboración digital, existe una falta de evidencia empírica sobre cómo estos modos interactúan en contextos de proyectos distribuidos e interdependientes. Esta investigación examina cómo las prácticas sincrónicas (ICE) y asincrónicas (CDE) dan forma a la colaboración en diseño y construcción. Se analizaron cuarenta entrevistas semiestructuradas con profesionales de AEC mediante un enfoque deductivo-inductivo, guiado por seis dimensiones necesarias para una colaboración eficaz: confianza, calidad de la comunicación, gestión del cambio, calidad de la información, roles y procesos claros, y gestión de procesos interdependientes. Los hallazgos muestran que el ICE genera confianza interpersonal, reduce la latencia de las decisiones y resuelve interfaces estrechamente acopladas, especialmente cerca de los hitos, cuando las sesiones concluyen con responsabilidades claramente definidas para las tareas de seguimiento y las fechas de entrega. Por el contrario, los CDE fortalecen la confianza mediante historiales de versiones, registros de aprobación y estados de la información, mejorando la calidad de la información y el control de cambios. Sin embargo, a pesar de su complementariedad, estos modos de colaboración presentan dos rutinas institucionales distintas: el "intercambio de información" en el CDE y el "intercambio de conocimiento" en el ICE. Para obtener mejores resultados, su integración es esencial. Las implicaciones para la gestión subrayan la necesidad de marcos duales que articulen las condiciones y los mecanismos para equilibrar la inmediatez con la auditabilidad en proyectos de construcción digitalizados.4
