Disruptive human resource management technologies: a systematic literature review
(European Journal of Management and Business Economics, 2022) Priyashantha, K.G.; Alwis, A. Chamaru De; Welmilla, Indumathi
Purpose – The disruptive human resource management (HRM) technologies are now considered a significant facilitator to change and benefit the entire HRM landscape. This view needs to be further verified by reviewing the knowledge on the subject in the empirical research landscape. Thus, the study’s objectives were to find (1) the current knowledge and (2) the areas where empirical research is lacking in disruptive HRM technologies. Design/methodology/approach – The article is a literature review that was followed by the systematic literature review and the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA). The review considered 45 articles published during the 2008–2021 period extracted from the Scopus database, and bibliometric analysis was performed to achieve the research objectives. Findings – The results found that scholarly attention has been given to electronic HRM (E-HRM) rather than the disruptive HRM technologies. The areas investigated include the determinants of intention, adoptions and use of E-HRM and the outcomes of E-HRM adoptions and use. These outcomes can be further divided into general outcomes and HRM outcomes. Research limitations/implications – The findings reveal gaps in E-HRM research and disruptive HRM technologies remain untapped in the empirical research landscape. Hence, the study findings provide some implications for future research and applications. Originality/value – The study found empirically proven determinants of E-HRM intention, adoptions and use and E-HRMadoptions and use outcomes.Thesewere found in the studies conducted during the 2008–2021 period.
Outcomes of Egalitarian Gender Role Attitudes: A Systematic Literature Review
(Department of Marketing Management, Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka., 2021) Priyashantha, K.G.; Alwis, A. Chamaru De; Welmilla, I.
Egalitarian gender stereotypes or gender role stereotype change have emerged with the employment participation of females. Even this topic is in the discussion among the gender study researchers much, and there is no enough research on its various outcomes or consequences. In this research, our effort was to examine the knowledge on empirical research landscape on different outcomes resultant from egalitarian gender attitudes of people. To do that, we searched the articles on empirical studies in Scopus and EBSCOhost databases during 1970-2020. We used a systematic literature review methodology, and in which we used PRISMA guidelines to include and exclude the articles. The findings reveal that there are various outcomes from gender stereotype change and they can be attributed to the main clusters of family, work, health, and societal/economic. These results imly that there are gaps in the research landscape on gender stereotypes and those provide research agenda for the future.
A Theoretical Perspective on Egalitarian Gender Role Attitudes and Behaviors
(Department of Marketing Management, Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka., 2021) Priyashantha, K.G.; Alwis, A. Chamaru De; Welmilla, I.
The egalitarian gender role attitudes are a prevailing discussion of gender researchers. In that, researchers tend to use social role theory to explain the cognitive processes involving in such a concept. However, in the current article we argue that it lacks detailed explanation on stepwise cognitive processes of people involved in such an egalitarian gender role attitudes and behaviors. Moreover, theory can't be applied to determine whether traditional gender role attitude have been changed by the people or not in a society. This perspective paper proposes that the theory of planned behavior is a good basis to examine whether egalitarian gender stereotypes and behaviors prevalent or not. We took the Sri Lankan examples to analyze the components of theory of planned behavior in the lens of egalitarian gender role beliefs. we present it in two perspectives where in the first perspective we have organized information to reveal that the components of theory of planned behavior; the Attitudes, Subjective Norms, and the Perceived Behavioral Control influence the Intentions for Egalitarian Gender Role Behaviors. In the second perspectives we provide information to support Intentions and Facilitative Conditions for Egalitarian Gender Role Behaviors ultimately Influence to the Egalitarian Gender Role Behaviors. While provide future research directions in each perspective, we provide implications for future researchers that the theory of planned behavior is suits in explaining the egalitarian gender role attitudes and behaviors of people.
