The emerging phenomenon of digital exclusion raises an important issue that not everyone is equally engaged in and can benefit from the digital world. Older adults are particularly susceptible to digital exclusion, but a comprehensive conceptual treatment of digital exclusion in older adults is lacking in the psychology literature. In this article, we provide a taxonomy to advance the literature on digital exclusion in older adults, identifying key conceptual attributes of older adults’ digital exclusion experiences by articulating both structural (i.e., technology deficit) and psychological (i.e., social and information isolation) challenges that they face. On the basis of this taxonomy, we integrate insights from lifespan development theories to develop a theoretical model that considers the antecedents of digital exclusion among older adults at micro, meso, and macrolevels and outlines the potential consequences for successful aging in life and work domains. We also suggest directions for future research, aiming to address issues of digital exclusions among older adults and promote digital equality in societies.

... Organizations can grow from their crisis experiences when they view adversity as an opportunity to recalibrate within a volatile environment [49]. The present study is based on the COVID-19 pandemic that provided an extensive crisis environment to develop and test organizational resilience models [105]. The present study contributes to practice by creating and testing a resilience framework for SMEs that capitalizes on frugal resources such as leadership styles and psychological capital [23]. ...

... Employees with a high level of organizational identity are likely to be more obedient to their leaders and perform better at work. To illustrate, several studies [28,29] have indicated that organizational identity not only moderates the link between innovation focus and the mental well-being of top managers, but also influences the correlation between boundaryless professional attitudes and behaviors outside their designated role. According to the study conducted by Mael et al. [30], employees' organizational identity is positively associated with their work performance, with higher levels of organizational identity correlating with better work performance. ...

... The use of this archival data was exempted from IRB approval at a major Southeast Public University in the United States (IRB#202101741: "Organizational practices and performance"). Consistent with prior strategic HR research (e.g., Batt and Colvin 2011;Li et al. 2024;Takeuchi, Chen, and Lepak 2009), respondents were asked to refer to their current workplace/establishment (i.e., standalone entity with a business address) when answering survey questions. The workplace-level design is appropriate for the current research, because different workplaces of the same company may vary in employee compositions and management practices (Lepak et al. 2006). ...

... Despite the rapid adoption of AI technologies in medical practice, there remains a significant gap in understanding the full impact of AI on healthcare professionals, particularly with respect to its utility and psychological implications. In other professional domains, the literature on AI usage has largely focused on its effects on work outcomes (Man Tang et al., 2022;Shao et al., 2024;Chowdhury et al., 2023;Malik et al., 2023). Existing studies have approached AI usage through theoretical lenses such as complementarity and role theory (Man Tang et al., 2022), self-regulation theory , and cognitive load theory (Shao et al., 2024), predominantly analyzing how AI usage affects job performance. ...

... These factors enhance socialization, leading to increased social capital through learning and retaining employees (Wikström et al. 2023). However, younger workers are often in the role of receiving knowledge without reciprocating, due to organizational age norms and their own goal priorities (Burmeister et al. 2024). They may also hesitate to ask questions or be vulnerable (Patel, Tinker, and Corna 2018;Wikström et al. 2023). ...

... Furthermore, understanding the process of political socialization involves examining the various agents and institutions that play a role in this process. Families, educational systems, media, peer groups, and political institutions all contribute to shaping an individual's political perceptions and behaviors (Deng et al., 2024;Suma et al., 2023). By analyzing these factors, we can gain a deeper insight into how political socialization influences societal stability and change. ...

... Given these ideas and construct definitions, the overarching goal of this study was to extend theorizing on the role of work uncertainty by integrating propositions from socioemotional selectivity theory to make predictions about how changes in work uncertainty moderate the relation between age and OFTP. We focus on changes in work uncertainty here in terms of linear, positive or negative trajectories (i.e., "…longitudinal change in constructs using functions of time" Swider et al., 2023;p. 1). ...

... Incorporating computational modeling into theory testing can help address these issues. Computational models are a set of rules (e.g., equations or formal logics) used to explicitly define the relationships between causes and effects (Vancouver, Wang & Weinhardt, 2024). Due to its clarity and transparency, computational modeling can help scrutinize assumptions of theories, refine theoretical arguments, and ensure that logic is consistent throughout different parts of the same theoretical framework. ...
