This paper describes the concepts of unearned privilege and favoritism and tests if there are differences in managerial attitudes
towards the use of these behaviors based on respondent gender. Respondents included 180 managers employed with a large retail
organization located in the southern part of the United States. The results indicate that female managers more strongly disapproved
of the use of unearned privilege in making promotion decisions and more strongly disapproved of the decision to use favoritism
in decision making related to customer relations. The results also indicated that male managers were less likely to disapprove
of the use of unearned privilege when they had greater years of management experience. In addition, the most experienced female
managers reported disapproval levels for the use favoritism in decision making related to customer relations equal to that
of the most experienced male managers. 相似文献

To improve control and coordination with operations in distant locations, multinational enterprises (MNEs) establish regional headquarters (RHQs). The number of RHQs in Shanghai registered with the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Commerce has increased from 154 in 2006 to more than 400 in 2012. Managing knowledge constitutes one of the major strategic advantages of an MNE, but little is known about RHQs and their role in MNE knowledge flows. Based on interviews with regional, subsidiary, and global managers, we explore knowledge flows involving the RHQ. Our data suggest that RHQs can have a role in inflows and outflows of knowledge, and that this involvement is influenced by RHQ management, structure, and position within the subsidiary network. 相似文献

Using unique data, we address the issue of price formation in a limit order market. A standard volume–volatility relation is documented with the number of trades acting as the important component of volume. The main contribution of the paper is to identify strong evidence that volume, volatility, and the volume–volatility relation are negatively related to the order book slope. These results are robust to the inclusion of several liquidity measures. A significant empirical relationship between the order book slope and the coefficient of variation in earnings forecasts by financial analysts suggests that the slope is proxying for disagreement among investors. Hence, our results support models where investor heterogeneity intensifies the volume–volatility relation. 相似文献

This study attempts to help explain the ethical decision making of individual employees by determining how the perceived organizational environment is related to that decision. A self- administered questionnaire design was used for gathering data in this study with a sample size of 245 full-time employees. Perceived supervisor expectation, formal policies, and informal policies were used to assess the expressed ethical decision of the respondents. The findings indicate that the perceived organizational environment is significantly related to the ethical decision of the respondent. 相似文献

In Norway, a lively mass media debate, together with legal deregulation, has caused shops to extend their opening hours. In addition, the same debate slightly influenced consumer demand for extended opening hours. Consumer demand also changed in response to the actual extension of opening hours, an effect which was stronger than the mass media effect. In some cases, the demand for extended opening hours appears to have been based upon objective needs, in other cases upon subjective desires. Underlying the debate and the deregulation there must be some basic phenomena connected to the general economic and cultural development in society, since the appearance of the opening hours issue on the political agenda has occurred more or less simultaneously in several European countries.

Änderungen beim Bedarf nach Ladenöffnungszeiten in Norwegen — verbraucherpolitische Implikationen
Zusammenfassung Die Liberalisierung der Regelung der Ladenöffnungszeiten und eine lebhafte Debatte darüber in den Massenmedien hat in Norwegen viele Läden zu einer Ausweitung ihrer Öffnungszeiten veranlaßt. Auch der Wunsch der Konsumenten nach verlängerten Öffnungszeiten wurde durch diese Debatte leicht beeinflußt. Stärker allerdings wurde dieser Wunsch durch die tatsächliche Ausweitung der Öffnungszeiten beeinflußt. Man kann sogar sagen, daß das Angebot verlängerter Öffnungszeiten die entsprechende Nachfrage erst geschaffen hat und nicht umgekehrt. In manchen Fällen dürfte die Nachfrage nach längeren Öffnungszeiten auf objektive Bedürfnisse, in anderen Fällen auf subjektive Wünsche zurückgehen.Forschungsergebnisse zeigen, daß der Wunsch von Konsumenten nach längeren Öffnungszeiten umso stärker ist, je dichter besiedelt das Gebiet ist, in dem sie leben. Ferner zeigt sich, daß jüngere Konsumenten längere Öffnungszeiten (bei Geschäften und bei Banken) haben wollen als ältere. Ähnliches gilt für politisch konservativ eingestellte Konsumenten und für solche, die lange Arbeitszeiten haben. Andererseits gibt es aber auch Konsumenten, die eigentlich einen objektiven Bedarf nach längeren Öffnungszeiten haben müßten, diese subjektiv aber nicht wünschen (z. B. solche, deren Arbeitszeit die Ladenöffnungszeiten überstreicht). Diese Einstellung resultiert vermutlich aus traditionellen Denkformen und aus empfundenen Konflikten zwischen Verbraucher- und Arbeitsinteressen. Manche Konsumenten äußern ausdrücklich ihre Solidarität mit den Beschäftigten in den Geschäften, deren Arbeitszeit von den Änderungen der Öffnungszeiten berührt wird. Wenn andererseits ein Wunsch nach längeren Öffnungszeiten tatsächlich besteht, so steht dahinter häufig das stärker empfundene eigene Verbraucherinteresse, häufig werden aber längere Öffnungszeiten einfach nur als bequem und attraktiv empfunden.

Yet another paper on fit measures? To our knowledge, very few papers discuss how fit measures are affected by error variance in the Data Generating Process (DGP). The present paper deals with this. Based upon an extensive simulation study, this paper shows that the effects of increased error variance differ significantly for various fit measures. In addition to error variance the effects depend on sample size and severity of misspecification. The findings confirm the general notion that good fit as measured by the chi-square, RMSEA and GFI etc. does not necessarily mean that the model is correctly specified and reliable. One finding is that the chi square test may give support to misspecified models in situations with a high level of error variance in the DGP, for small sample sizes. Another finding is that the chi-square test looses power also for large sample sizes when the model is negligible misspecified. Other results include incremental fit indices as NFI and RFI which prove to be more informative indicators under these circumstances. At the end of the paper we formulate some guidelines for use of different fit measures. 相似文献

As businesses become more global, the opportunities for employees to work with individuals from different cultures increase. Research in cross-cultural interactions has increased in response to such changes. This research study considers employee attitudes and perceived organizational support for the use of deception within the work environment. In this study, two types of deception have been considered; deception for personal gain and deception for the organization's benefit. The reported likelihood for committing these two types of deception for United States and Israeli employees was gathered. The results indicate that United States employees are more likely to deceive others for personal gain than the Israeli employees. In addition, the results indicate that United States employees were more likely to perceive organizational support for the use of deception for personal gain than were the Israeli employees. No differences between the two samples were found for personal or organizational support for deception for the organization's benefit. Differences are explained using Hofstede's (1991) theory of international cultures. 相似文献

This paper analyzes the relationships between juvenile justice system interactions and high school graduation. When controlling for a large set of observable and unobservable characteristics, arrested and incarcerated individuals are about 11 and 26 percentage points, respectively, less likely to graduate high school than non-arrested individuals. However, the effect of arrest is not robust to there being relatively little selection on unobservable characteristics. In contrast, the incarceration effect is less sensitive to such selection and therefore more likely to at least partially represent a real effect. The remainder of the paper explores the mechanisms underlying this incarceration effect, including hypotheses of an education impeding stigma and disruptions in human capital accumulation. 相似文献
