This research aims to determine the effect of the adoption of teleworking on the development of job exhaustion of the higher education administrative staff in Junín during the crisis of COVID-19. The applied and correlational research was carried out with the participation of 300 administrative workers of higher education by applying a questionnaire of 40 questions. The results obtained show that having teleworking skills reduces emotional fatigue and depersonalization since the collaborator can self-regulate his behavior when faced with stressors. Likewise, these skills generate a positive effect on personal fulfillment, allowing the teleworker to achieve a satisfactory personal fulfillment of having said skills. On the other hand, telework conditions generate a hidden effect on emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal fulfillment; therefore, this dimension does not contribute to the reduction or increase of the mentioned dimensions. The work-life balance dimension does not generate any effect on any of the factors. It is concluded that the development of skills for teleworking is a relevant factor to achieve personal fulfillment in teleworkers, while teleworking conditions do not reduce job burnout.

Social media serves as a platform or a new area for developing innovation responsive to business advancement. As individuals are the source of knowledge in organizations, individual learning is the focus of organizational learning and development. Ambidexterity is an activity that requires individual learning. The study was carried out in Greater Jakarta, Indonesia. A personal survey questionnaire with convenience sampling was used to collect white-collar workers in Greater Jakarta. Rasch Model Analysis, specifically Person Measure Analysis, was used to filter for bias in the responses because the data was collected through personal references or self-report questionnaires. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is used to test hypotheses based on the collected data. According to the statistical results, ambidexterity and social media learning experience significantly impact innovative behavior. It implies that ambidexterity and social media learning experience can improve white-collar workers' innovative behavior. Ambidexterity has a significant impact on the learning experience on social media. It implies that a person with greater ambidexterity will engage in more intense knowledge exploration and exploitation through social media. The study's findings also show that social media experience without ambidexterity has the least impact on innovative behavior. It implies that social media experience without exploratory and exploitative activities does not lead to innovative behavior.

Despite the increased dissemination of online tools to execute financial transactions, the level of credit card usage adoption among consumers still encounters many challenges. The dissemination and adoption of credit cards to execute online purchases is influenced by certain factors that impact customers' consumption behavior. Exploring and perceiving these factors and challenges is imperative for enhancing the operations of online businesses. This study aims to examine specific factors that affect the adoption of credit cards among customers within the Jordanian online market. The factors this study explores are: Expenditure Level, Welfare of the Individual, Psychological Behavior, Credit Card Knowledge, Regulations and Laws and, finally, Theft and Fraud. This research was conducted through employing the quantitative approach; utilizing a questionnaire on a total of (335) credit card users in Jordan. The research subjects were credit card users (customers) from three Jordanian banks: Arab Banking Corporation, Housing Bank for Trade and Finance, and the Bank of Jordan. The study findings indicated that ‘Individual Welfare’ and ‘Psychological Behavior’ are the strongest influential factors on individuals' adoption of credit cards, followed by ‘Theft and Fraud’, ‘Laws and Legislation’, ‘Credit Card Knowledge’ and ‘Expenditure Level’ respectively in influence. The study recommendation encourages banks to focus more on increasing their clients' awareness regarding credit cards usage in order to enhance their perception of how to behave in case of fraud and theft and increasing their clients' awareness of the financial burdens, pitfalls, and tricks while using a credit card. Moreover, it suggests that banks should increase their marketing efforts for credit cards which can change the behavior and acceptance of individuals towards credit cards adoption.

The study sought to find out the effect of Technological Readiness Index (TRI) on the adoption of the inDubai application by potential tourists to Dubai. The finding showed a distinct relationship between TRI dimensions and the intention to make use of the inDubai mobile application. The findings of the study further proved that the TRI model as developed by Parasuraman can indeed prove the intention of individuals to adopt a new technology. The study showed that if the first two dimensions (Optimism and Innovation) are present, then a traveler will most likely see the perceived benefits of using the product or technology which in turn will lead to a positive intention to adopt such a technology. The findings also showed that if the last two dimensions (Insecurity and Discomfort) are present then such individuals exhibiting these behaviors are less likely to want to adopt this new technology. This implies that applications like the inDubai application and other similar applications need to address issues that lead to insecurity and discomfort among users if they are to attract a lot of adopters.

Although e-learning management-related research has been pursued in many parts of the world, there is dearth of research that integrates this concept with the increasing trend of smartphone usage for educational purposes. Furthermore, research in the area shows a general lack of contextualizing the concept in the Middle Eastern context. Therefore, the aim of this study is twofold: (i) to explore the everyday use and role of smartphones among university students in Kuwait; and (ii) to identify if there are any socio-demographic differences in smartphone usage among university students. A questionnaire was completed by 376 students in order to achieve the study objectives. The results showed that students frequently used their smartphones at home and that they sometimes used these phones in recreation places and on transportation, at university, and when walking. Also, they always used their smartphones to complete fourteen non-learning activities, such as making phone calls, using it as a watch and as an alarm clock, and ten learning activities, such as checking their exam schedules, checking class timetables, and checking their grades. Moreover, social networking, learning, privacy, and safety were important reasons offered by students for owning/using smartphones. Furthermore, the study found that at least one of eight socio-demographic variables (i.e., gender, marital status, major/subject, nationality, smartphone brand, using it for the first time, age range, and level of study) has an effect on at least one pattern of smartphone usage. Several recommendations were made based on these findings that may improve the effectiveness of smartphone usage among university students in Kuwait.
