Antecedents and outcomes of restaurant employees’ food safety intervention behaviors

Restaurants are likely culprits of having foodborne illness outbreaks, causes of which are often linked to employees failing to control food threats during the flow of food. Research indicates that many food risks posed by restaurants could be thwarted if employees would intervene as threats are noticed. For unknown reasons, employees are not always motivated to reduced or eliminate threats when observing poor food safety behaviors, regardless of position, education, or experience in the industry.This study applies the elaboration likelihood model of persuasion (ELM) and protection motivation (PMT) theories to investigate employee reactions to food safety threats. Of keen interest was to identify employees of differing positions in the restaurant and to study how they react to food safety threats to either intervene, passively dismiss, or simply leave the location of the incident.

Using CRM to Model Firm Performance in a Business-to-Business Market

Customer relationship management (CRM) is the widely accepted approach for gathering, examining, understanding and translating information related to customers into managerial action. CRM is investigated in the context of new product performance (NPP). CRM enhances NPP as well as firm performance. This study investigates the impact of CRM on NPP through the moderation of top management support and an innovative culture, as well as the impact of CRM on firm performance through the mediation of NPP. A questionnaire survey is used for data collection from marketing managers of 159 firms in Pakistan in the B-to-B market. Hypotheses were tested using SEM in SMART PLS. This research shows that CRM directly affects firm performance, while NPP partially mediates the relationship of CRM and firm performance. These findings have significant implications for the practitioner. This study delivers insights to managers and academicians about the role of CRM in enhancing NPP and improving firm performance. In general, the study provides new insights into CRM by integrating top management support and an innovative culture. The research extends our understanding that top management support and innovative culture do not moderate the relationship of CRM with new product performance in a B-to-B context.     

新时代加强网络文明建设问题研究

加强网络文明建设,对于维护广大人民群众的根本利益、维护国家安全、加强社会主义精神文明建设具有重要而深远的意义。由于种种因素的制约,我国网络文明建设还存在着队伍建设有短板、网络管理法律法规不健全、网络媒体社会责任缺失、网络文明素养教育不到位等方面的问题。因此,必须从加强网络内容建设和管理、打造各主体协同共治的新工作格局、建立"三治"联动的网络治理体系等方面着手,推进新时代网络文明建设。     

工程管理类专业学位硕士培养目标对产业需求的适应性研究

"响应需求,提高质量"是工程管理硕士教育发展的关键.通过对比分析国内1850个工程管理岗岗位要求和126个工程管理类专业学位硕士培养目标,研究发现中国高校工程管理类专业硕士培养目标基本不能反映产业需求,表现在:人才培养定位同质化现象明显;培养目标在信息技能和行动技能的修订上存在矫枉过正之嫌;培养单位对工程管理硕士生职业资质培养的重视度严重不足.在此基础上,提出培养目标设计建议:建立用人单位参与培养方案设计的长效机制;警惕工程技术能力在培养过程中被"边缘化"的风险;强调培育提升工程管理硕士职业资质能力;立足学科优势,制定特色化培养目标.

经济新常态下资源型城市可持续发展研究——以鹤岗市为例

资源型城市在经济新常态发展的大背景下,面临着产业结构发展单一、资源与环境压力等众多问题。为了使资源型城市能够绿色健康的发展,对其进行经济新常态下的可持续发展研究十分必要。从经济新常态下的资源型城市发展分析出发,以鹤岗市为例,选取2007-2016年的数据,运用AHP与因子分析综合评价法进行经济新常态下鹤岗市可持续发展评价、分析并提出建议,最后提出经济新常态下鹤岗市可持续发展的具体实施路径。结果表明,实现可持续发展是经济新常态下资源型城市发展的必然选择。十年间经济新常态下鹤岗市可持续发展的总体水平呈先上升后平稳趋势,近几年经济、资源子系统具有明显阻碍作用。经济新常态下鹤岗市的可持续发展路径,要紧密结合经济新常态特征与可持续发展理念,并从鹤岗市实际条件出发,才能够保证具体实施路径的合理性。     

Inflation Targeting,Recursive Inattentiveness,and Heterogeneous Beliefs

We consider a monetary authority that provides an explicit inflation target in order to align expectations with the policy objective. However, biased perceptions of the target may arise due to imperfect information flows. We allow agents to revise expectations over time and we model their recursive choice among prediction strategies as an optimization problem under rational inattention. We then investigate whether a simple policy rule can steer the economy toward the targeted equilibrium. Our findings suggest that determinacy under rational expectations may not be sufficient to reach the target. Instead, monetary policy should be fine‐tuned to correct agents' biased beliefs.     

Not Every Kind of Outward FDI Increases Parent Firm Performance: The Case of New EU Member States

Using a large firm-level dataset we investigate what kind of firms from new EU member states from Central and Eastern Europe (CEECs) tend to invest abroad (testing of self-selection hypothesis), and what is the impact of outward FDI on their productivity (testing of learning-by-investing hypothesis). We find that the best firms tend to self-select into outward FDI. There is also a positive effect of outward FDI on productivity growth of investing firms from CEECs, the strongest being in the case of Estonia, Romania, Czech Republic, and Slovakia. The positive impact of becoming a first-time foreign investor is relatively long lasting, but comes into effect only in investments in Western European or other CEECs and in the case of manufacturing subsidiaries.
