Abstract

The integration of smart technologies into higher education is rapidly reshaping traditional teaching and learning environments. This study investigates differences in academic performance between students utilizing AI technologies and those who do not, spanning three educational levels: undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate. Using a simulated dataset of 200 participants, the analysis employed independent sample t-tests, chi-square tests, regression models, correlation analyses, and visualizations such as scatter plots. The findings consistently demonstrate that students who adopt AI significantly outperform their peers, with notable statistical improvements across all groups. Additionally, factors like educational level and age were found to influence outcomes, with younger students and AI users showing greater consistency and higher achievement. Beyond presenting numerical data, the research contextualizes these results within modern digital learning theories, addresses challenges in technological integration, and offers practical recommendations for effectively incorporating AI tools into higher education frameworks.

Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the strategic role of Strategic Renewal (across its core dimensions: content, context, and process) in mitigating Organizational Anomie and its behavioral and value-based manifestations (anomie/normlessness, organizational cynicism, and the absence of values) within the dynamic organizational environment of Zain Iraq for Telecommunications. To achieve the research objectives, a descriptive-analytical approach was adopted. Data were collected through a specially designed questionnaire distributed to a purposive sample of leaders and administrators within the company. The data were analyzed using SPSS, employing descriptive statistical methods (Arithmetic Means and Standard Deviations) and inferential statistics (Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Simple Linear Regression). The results revealed high levels of both strategic renewal practices and organizational anomie within the surveyed company. Furthermore, a statistically significant inverse correlation was identified between the two variables, indicating that higher levels of strategic renewal are associated with a decrease in organizational anomie. Regression analysis further demonstrated that the dimensions of strategic renewal collectively explain 60% of the variance in organizational anomie, with the "Process" dimension exerting the strongest impact, followed by "Context" and "Content." The research concludes that strategic renewal serves as an effective entry point for curbing value-based and behavioral disintegration (anomie) in organizations operating in rapidly changing environments; however, its effectiveness is maximized when it encompasses processes and a supportive organizational context, rather than being limited to strategic content alone. The study recommends that the company's management focus on enhancing the value-driven and cultural aspects of renewal while bridging the trust gap between management and employees to achieve more integrated and sustainable strategic renewal

Abstract

The research problem stems from the increasing challenges facing the telecommunications sector amidst a highly competitive and rapidly evolving technological environment. Organizations in this sector are striving to adopt Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to enhance their performance; however, there remains a knowledge gap regarding the actual and tangible impact of these systems on organizational performance indicators within the local context. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the impact of implementing ERP system dimensions (Information Integration, Information Quality, and Process Efficiency) on enhancing organizational performance efficiency dimensions (Operational Efficiency, Performance Quality, and Speed of Completion) within telecommunications companies operating in the Middle Euphrates provinces (Babylon, Karbala, and Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf). The research adopted the descriptive-analytical approach. The results revealed a statistically significant positive correlation between the implementation of ERP systems and organizational performance efficiency. Regression analysis indicated that ERP implementation explains 52% of the variance in organizational performance efficiency. Detailed findings showed that the "Process Efficiency" dimension was the most influential on "Operational Efficiency" and "Speed of Completion," while the "Information Quality" dimension was the strongest predictor of "Performance Quality." Based on these results, the research recommends that companies invest in improving data quality, re-engineering processes to align with system requirements, providing continuous training programs for employees, and ensuring top management support. The research also suggests conducting future studies that incorporate mediating variables, such as organizational culture, and expanding the scope to include other economic sectors using diverse research methodologies to deepen the understanding of this relationship.

Abstract

The research aimed to diagnose the factors influencing managers' intentions to adopt remote work practices and their impact on employees' psychological well-being at the Technological University. A descriptive methodology and linear regression analysis were used on a sample of 50 participants, including department heads, sections, and their assistants. Their opinions were surveyed through a questionnaire prepared for this purpose. The results showed that the managers at the Technological University demonstrated a clear willingness to adopt remote work practices. The research revealed that behavioral intention and social norms were the most influential factors in shaping managers' intentions to adopt remote work. The former reflects their positive conviction about the benefits of these practices, while the latter is related to the influence of employee expectations. Perceived behavioral control, which conveys the managers' confidence in employees' capabilities, was a supportive but less influential factor. The overall factors showed the highest impact, confirming their integrative interaction. Regarding the impact of these factors on employees' psychological well-being, the results indicated that general mental health was significantly affected by behavioral intention, as positive conviction enhances mental resilience. Job satisfaction was influenced by perceived behavioral control, as confidence in performance boosts feelings of appreciation. Social support was clearly affected by social norms through informal support networks among colleagues. Work-life balance was influenced by all the factors. Overall, employees' psychological well-being was strongly impacted by the total factors affecting managers' intentions, demonstrating that the overall intentions of managers are the strongest driver of employees' psychological well-being.

The study assumes a main hypothesis positing the existence of a statistically significant impact of financing behavior on the economic value of industrial companies. To test the research hypotheses, time series data and multiple linear regression analysis were employed. The results revealed a statistically significant negative impact of common stock financing on Economic Value Added, a statistically significant positive impact of retained earnings financing on Economic Value Added, and no significant impact of short-term financing on Economic Value Added.

The study concludes with a set of recommendations for financial decision-makers in the business companies of the study sample to help enhance their economic value, including: adopting an effective financing policy that ensures the optimal use of shares as a financing tool, achieving a balance between equity financing and debt financing.
