ABSTRACT The construct of distributive justice has been conceptualized largely along the three allocation rules of equity, equality, and need. Extant empirical research in the marketing channels area, however, treats distributive justice as a unidimensional, global construct focusing almost exclusively on the allocation rule of equity. As a result, the measurement of equality and need, two distinct and significant allocation rules, has been largely overlooked in the context of people and organizations involved in interorganizational exchange. The current study tests a measure of distributive justice that takes into account each of the three allocation rules. Results indicate valid scales that accurately measure three rules of distributive justice across two independent samples of channel participants in franchise systems. This research represents an important step toward accurately, concisely, and efficiently measuring this important and socially relevant construct in an interorganizational setting. 相似文献

This paper studies the link between democracy and economic development for 28 countries of Sub-Saharan Africa for the period 1980–2005 in a panel data framework. A democracy index constructed from the Freedom House indices. A variety of panel data unit root and cointegration tests are applied. The variables are found to be integrated of order one and cointegrated. The Blundell–Bond system generalized methods-of-moments is employed to conduct a panel error-correction mechanism based causality test within a vector autoregressive structure. Economic growth is found to cause democracy in the short-run, while bidirectionality is uncovered in the long-run. In addition, the long-run coefficients are estimated through the panel fully modified ordinary least squares and dynamic ordinary least squares methods. Democracy has a positive impact on GDP and vice versa. These results lend support to the virtuous cycle hypothesis. 相似文献

To shed light on individuals' willingness to pay for "green" goods (i.e., goods that are supposed to have lower adverse environmental impacts either in production or in use), we study data from the introduction by Patagonia, Inc., of organic cotton sportswear in the mid-1990s. Patagonia, a maker of high-end outdoor wear, substituted organic cotton for conventionally grown cotton in all of its sportswear (i.e., casual clothing for travel and leisure) in 1996. We find that customers were willing to pay significant premiums for organic cotton garments although the organic cotton provided no demonstrable private incremental benefits to the customer. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to cast new light on possible gender biases in implicit theories people hold about various forms of entrepreneurial activity. Using social role theory, we delve into sex‐role stereotypes associated with high‐ and low‐growth entrepreneurship and commercial and social entrepreneurship. Predictions were tested with an experimental design using both a between‐subject design to capture group‐level stereotypes and a within‐subject design to capture individual‐level stereotypes. Findings reveal that commercial and high‐growth entrepreneurs are perceived as more similar to men than to women and higher on agency than communality. Conversely, low‐growth entrepreneurs are perceived as more similar to women than men, and higher on communality than agency. Social entrepreneurs are uniquely perceived as similar to both men and women, though they are also considered higher on agency than communality. Interestingly, female, but not male respondents, perceive some overlap between the feminine gender role and high‐growth and commercial entrepreneurship. Notably, those higher on modern sexism perceive less overlap between entrepreneurship and femininity. Taken together, our results suggest that commercial high‐growth entrepreneurship is most strongly male‐typed, which is likely to be problematic for women (and non‐traditional men) wanting to start growth‐oriented ventures. Implications and directions for future research are discussed. 相似文献

This paper examines the importance of geographical differentiation in store location decisions of firms in the retail discount
industry. Using a novel data set that includes the store locations and accompanying market conditions for all stores belonging
to the Wal-Mart, Kmart, and Target chains, we study the factors that influence the entry and location decisions of these firms.
The model involves an incomplete information game between the three players where each firm has private information about
its own profitability. A key feature of our modeling approach is that it permits asymmetries across firms in the impact of
exogenous market characteristics and competitive interaction effects. Variations in the exogenous firm specific characteristics,
such as the distances from the market to firms’ headquarters and the nearest distribution centers, serve as exclusion restrictions
and provide the source for model identification. Parameter estimates of the payoff functions are used to predict the equilibrium
market structure under a variety of market conditions that provide insights into the competitive landscape of the industry.
Results show that all firms exert a strong negative impact on competitors when they are in close proximity, but the effect
decreases with distance to rivals suggesting strong returns to spatial differentiation in this industry. Target stores fare
well under competition except when these competitors are in close proximity. Wal-Mart’s supercenter format is found to be
the most formidable player as it substantially impacts competitors even at a large distance. We also find significant asymmetries
across players in their response to market conditions and competition interactions.

This paper examines the relationship between extension difficulty, defined as the perceived difficulty of manufacturing the
extension product, and attitudes toward brand extensions. Although extant literature has hitherto modeled this relationship
as a simple monotonic relationship, a study by Bottomley and Holden (Journal of Marketing Research, 38(4):494–500, 2001) has questioned its empirical generalizability. We suggest that the relationship between extension difficulty and extension
attitudes may be far more complex than a simple linear relationship. Based on theoretical evidence drawn from the concept
of evaluation difficulty, we suggest that the relationship between extension difficulty and extension attitudes is best modeled
as a curvilinear (inverted U-shaped) relationship. Further, we explore the specific role of perceived transferability as a
moderator of this curvilinear relationship. Empirical tests conducted using two studies provide support for both the theoretical
mechanism and the proposed hypotheses. Entry into “easy” or “extremely difficult” extension categories carries its own penalties
while entry into “moderately difficult” categories appears to garner high consumer attitudes for brand extensions. 相似文献

This study draws on stereotype threat theory to explore differences between men and women on evaluation of new business opportunities. Two controlled experiments, one with business students in Turkey and another with working professionals in the United States, were conducted. Participants were randomly assigned to specific experimental conditions and their assessment of a new business opportunity was measured after presentation of stereotypical information. As predicted, men reported higher opportunity evaluation than women when no gender stereotypical information was presented, whereas men and women evaluated the business opportunity equally favorably when entrepreneurs were described using gender-neutral attributes. Interestingly, gender differences in opportunity evaluation were exacerbated when entrepreneurship was linked to masculine stereotypical information, and reversed in favor of women when entrepreneurship was linked to feminine stereotypical information. Practical implications and directions for future research are discussed. 相似文献

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) play a significant role in the growth of the economy. Many SMEs have set up activities beyond their home markets, and their role is more important in contributing to future growth. They are confronted with international competition and forced to compete in international markets. In this study, authors have categorized obstacles to firm internalization as internal and external barriers. The three dimensions of external barriers include governmental and economic political/legal barriers, procedural, and currency barriers, and task and socio-cultural barriers. The internal barriers considered for the purpose of the study were informational barrier, managerial barriers, financial barriers, and marketing barriers. Authors have used adapted scale from previous researches in these domains. Database accumulated the SMEs that were involved in manufacturing activities in the state of Rajasthan, India. The measurement model is a confirmatory factor analysis. The measures used within this study were within the acceptable levels supporting the reliability of the constructs. The analysis of the data revealed that there was moderate correlation between the external and internal factors. Within the external factors, procedural and currency barriers showed the highest obstacle for SMEs in their pursuit for internationalization followed by task and socio-cultural factors. Results specified that the entrepreneurs were not able to handle and manage foreign exchange fluctuations due to their lack of knowledge in this field. 相似文献
