Although music sales are declining, interest in music is healthy, and strongest amongst the American young adult market - between the ages 18-34. This marketing plan uses traditional and innovative techniques to capture the attention of the target market, which is more culturally diverse and technologically advanced than any previous demographic.

Title: The impact of IT security psychological climate on salient user beliefs toward IT security: an empirical study.

Show moreThere is a growing need to better understand what influences user behavior for developing comprehensive IT security systems. This study integrates two prominent bodies of research, the theory of planned behavior used to frame the factors influencing user behavior and individual level climate perceptions used to frame organizational environment influences, to develop a multidimensional IT security user behavior model. The model is then used as the basis for a survey based research to empirically test the hypotheses whether the perceived IT security climate of an organization significantly influences the users beliefs regarding the use of IT security. The intent of the study is to extend the theory of planned behavior and IT security literature by investigating salient IT security beliefs and environmental influences on those beliefs. First, anti-spyware was identified as an appropriate target IT security artifact, and then incorporated into a multi-phased research approach. Second, a semi-structured interview process was used to elicit salient beliefs regarding use of the IT security artifact. Third, IT security psychological climate was conceptualized based on the extant literature on organizational climate, safety climate and IT security in order to examine the organizational environment influences on these beliefs. Finally, a survey was used to collect data to validate the constructs and test the hypothesized relationships., The study found that there was a significant positive relationship between IT security psychological climate and 1) the belief that anti-spyware will protect organizational interests such as privacy and data, 2) the belief that anti-spyware will prevent disruptions to work, 3) the belief that the approval of anti-spyware use by the technical support group is important, 4) the belief that monetary resources are needed to enable the use of anti-spyware, and 5) the belief that time is a facilitating condition for the use of anti-spyware. A discussion of the findings and their implications for theory and practice is provided.

Title: Understanding in healthcare professional involvement in patient internet use.
Creator: Morton, Neil., College of Business, Information Technology and Operations Management
Abstract/Description: Use of the Internet can increase patients' understanding about their medical conditions and offers opportunities to strengthen the patient-physician relationship, increase patient satisfaction, and improve health outcomes. However, physicians vary widely in the extent to which they accept patient online medical information seeking and make it part of the patient-physician relationship. This paper explores factors impacting the extent to which physicians advocate (encourage, speak in favor, or...
Show moreUse of the Internet can increase patients' understanding about their medical conditions and offers opportunities to strengthen the patient-physician relationship, increase patient satisfaction, and improve health outcomes. However, physicians vary widely in the extent to which they accept patient online medical information seeking and make it part of the patient-physician relationship. This paper explores factors impacting the extent to which physicians advocate (encourage, speak in favor, or are supportive of) patient internet use. Specifically, using social cognitive theory as a theoretical base, this study develops a model of the determinants of physician advocation of patient use of the internet for information about medical conditions and treatments. Survey data collected from a random sample of 179 physicians licensed to practice medicine in Florida is used to test the proposed model. Proxy efficacy for patient internet use, social efficacy for enlisting patient internet use, performance outcomes expectations, and personal outcome expectations are shown to be significant determinants of physician professional advocation of patient internet use. In addition to its direct impact, proxy efficacy is shown to influence intention to advocate patient internet use indirectly thru social efficacy and outcome expectations, demonstrating the key role of this construct in the proxy agency model. Self-efficacy, in contrast, is not found to be a significant factor. Overall, the results support the proposed model of technology use.

Title: Gray Wolves in the Northwest and How to Keep Them Protected.
Creator: Tsang, Rebecca, Holman, Mirya R., College of Business
Abstract/Description: The gray wolf is a native species to North America, but settlers in the 1800s started to shoot, poison, and trap them. In the 1930s the species was eradicated from the Northern Rockies, and eventually were on the brink of extinction. Thankfully the Endangered Species Act was put in place in 1973, and the gray wolf was one of the first species to be protected under it. Because of these new protections, the species was able to start their road to recovery. In 1995 and 1996, the gray wolf was...
Show moreThe gray wolf is a native species to North America, but settlers in the 1800s started to shoot, poison, and trap them. In the 1930s the species was eradicated from the Northern Rockies, and eventually were on the brink of extinction. Thankfully the Endangered Species Act was put in place in 1973, and the gray wolf was one of the first species to be protected under it. Because of these new protections, the species was able to start their road to recovery. In 1995 and 1996, the gray wolf was reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park and the Northern Rockies. However, starting in 2009 the northwestern states began to delist the gray wolf from their protections. This shifted the power from the federal level to the state level, giving each state control over their wolf populations. When Wyoming was given this power in 2012, their gray wolf population began to plummet again, and in 2014, the courts overturned this decision, giving power back to the federal government. The gray wolves are a very significant species to the ecosystems they inhabit; therefore, their existence and recovery must be allowed to remain flourishing. For this to happen, power should be turned back over to the government and the gray wolf should continue to be protected under the ESA as well.

Title: BOARD ETHNIC AND RACIAL DIVERSITY: DOES IT IMPACT EARNINGS QUALITY?.
Creator: Mungai, Ann W. Nduati, Thevenot, Maya, Florida Atlantic University, School of Accounting, College of Business
Abstract/Description: I examine whether and how racially/ethnically diverse board impacts the quality of reported earnings. Agency theory suggests that the board of directors acts as a robust governance mechanism to reduce opportunistic managerial behavior that may harm shareholders' wealth. Further, diversity coalesces a variety of attributes from different directors that are valuable in predicting organizational outcomes. The majority of extant literature focuses on gender-diverse boards and various firm...
Show moreI examine whether and how racially/ethnically diverse board impacts the quality of reported earnings. Agency theory suggests that the board of directors acts as a robust governance mechanism to reduce opportunistic managerial behavior that may harm shareholders' wealth. Further, diversity coalesces a variety of attributes from different directors that are valuable in predicting organizational outcomes. The majority of extant literature focuses on gender-diverse boards and various firm outcomes, while little is known about how directors' race/ethnicity affects earnings quality. Using a sample of firms publicly traded in the U.S., I find that increased board racial/ethnic diversity is associated with better earnings quality as proxied by lower discretionary accruals and lower probability of internal control weaknesses and financial statement restatements. I further examine whether firms with increased diversity (racial/ethnic and gender diversity) enjoy incrementally higher earnings quality than other firms. However, I fail to find support that racial/ethnic and gender intersectionality is associated with improved earnings quality. Lastly, based on critical mass theory, I test whether an industry descriptive norm is necessary for firms to enjoy increased earnings quality. I find that racial/ethnic directors have a meaningful impact on a firm's earnings quality regardless of the level of diversity; even firms with lower than the industry descriptive norm of racial/ethnic diversity enjoy improved earnings quality.
