差异化人才管理对员工创新绩效的“双刃剑”效应

基于调节焦点理论和公平启发理论,运用结构方程模型考量差异化人才管理对员工创新绩效的影响机制。结果显示：促进定向工作重塑在差异化人才管理与员工创新绩效之间起正向中介作用,防御定向工作重塑在二者间起负向中介作用;组织公平感正向调节差异化人才管理与促进定向工作重塑之间的关系,负向调节差异化人才管理与防御定向工作重塑之间的关系;组织公平感增强促进定向工作重塑的正向中介作用,削弱防御定向工作重塑的负向中介作用。     

“民主化”改革与地区经济表现

依据Polity IV数据库数据,考量20世纪90年代以来“第三波民主化浪潮”中,发展中国家朝着西方价值标准“民主”的重大转变对其经济表现的影响。结果显示,没有证据支持“民主化”改革促进了经济增长;相反,“民主化”改革引致国家治理能力下降,阻碍了经济发展。异质性分析表明,“民主化”改革对经济发展的负效应主要出现在撒哈拉以南非洲地区,且激进的“民主化”改革和被殖民国家的“民主化”改革对经济发展的负面影响更大。鉴于此,西方价值标准的民主既非一国经济发展的充分条件,也非一国经济发展的必要条件,一国选择何种国家治理模式与政治体制应考虑自身的历史、文化、发展阶段等实际国情,而不是盲目推行西式“民主化”。     

Short sellers and insider trading profitability: A natural experiment

We examine the impact of short sellers on insider trading profitability using a natural experiment of a pilot program which relaxed short-selling constraints for randomly selected pilot stocks. We find that pilot firms experienced a significant decrease in insider trading profitability during the pilot program. The results are more pronounced for the pilot firms with poor information quality, and for the pilot firms without corporate restrictions on insider trading. Our evidence suggests that short sellers serve an important market disciplinary role by reducing insider trading profitability.     

Terrorism activities and long-term annual management forecasts

We study the effects of terrorist attacks on firms’ long-term annual management earnings forecasts bias. We find that the managers of firms located closer to the epicenters of attacks are more likely to issue optimistic long-term annual earnings forecasts relative to the managers of a control group of unaffected firms. The exposure effect is stronger for more severe terrorist events, and firms with more uncertain fundamentals and less geographic diversification. In addition, we document that managers’ forecast optimism intensifies for firms with stronger negative stock market reaction to the terrorist event, for CEOs with higher ability and for companies that are more likely to issue equity or engage in acquisitions following the terrorist event. Overall, our results are consistent with the idea that long-term annual earnings forecasts are used by managers to counterbalance the short-term pessimistic response to terrorist attacks.     

Financial reporting consequences of natural disasters: Evidence from the impact of resource constraints at audit offices on non-affected clients

Disaster-affected clients demand significant additional effort from their audit office, and hence strain the audit office’s resources available to other non-disaster-affected clients. We consider audit offices with disaster-affected clients to be strained offices and find that, compared with clients audited by non-strained audit offices, non-disaster-affected clients audited by strained audit offices are more likely to have their financial statements restated. This result suggests the financial reporting quality of companies not directly exposed to disasters could also be negatively affected by the disasters, due to their auditors’ strained-resource issue. We further find such a negative effect is more pronounced when the degree of resource constraints is greater and when the audit office lacks client experience or industry expertise. We offer novel evidence of financial reporting consequences of natural disasters, focusing on the externality of disasters on companies not directly affected by disasters. The findings have important implications for regulators in making disaster-related policies, for auditors in managing their client portfolios, and for companies in making auditor choice decisions.     

Driving organizational citizenship behaviors and salesperson in-role behavior performance: The role of management control and perceived organizational support

Interest in management control approaches and organizational factors associated with higher levels of salesperson performance is reflected in research streams concerned with behavior-based control strategies and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs). This study makes two distinct additions to the literature relating to control, organizational citizenship behaviors and salesperson performance. First, the study distinguishes between salesperson in-role behavior performance and outcome performance to model in-role behavior performance as a mediator between OCB and outcome performance. Second, the work supports sales manager control as an antecedent to OCB. A second model introduces perceived organizational support (POS) as an additional antecedent to salesperson OCB, and more important, as a consequence of sales manager control. This construct has not been included in prior salesperson OCB studies. Results show sales manage control has a stronger impact on OCB through POS, than directly, and POS has a strong impact on salesperson OCB. Nigel F.

债务融资的治理效应:理论分析与实证检验

首先就西方财务学关于债务治理效应的理论进行了综述，然后采用中国上市公司的经验数据，对债务融资比例与企业绩效指标的关系进行了检验，得出了债务治理效应不佳的结论。这一结论似乎与西方财务学对债务治理效应的主流分析不符。通过分析其中的现实原因，就如何改善中国企业的债务治理效应，提出了相应的政策建议。     

基金业绩、基金经理更换与投资者财富效应——一项基于我国资本市场的实证研究

从基金管理公司内部的委托—代理关系出发,以封闭式基金为研究对象,从基金经理调整现状、基金业绩与基金经理调整的关系、基金经理调整公告的市场反应三个方面,对基金经理变动进行了实证分析。研究发现:基金业绩确实对基金经理更换及更换后的去向具有一定的参考价值,但基金经理更换并没有使更换经理后的基金业绩显著改善;基金经理公告确实引起了基金市场价格的变动,但没有使基金投资者的财富显著增加。     

游客对歌舞旅游产品真实性评判研究--以西双版纳傣族歌舞为例

以西双版纳傣族歌舞为例，研究了游客对歌舞旅游产品真实性的心理认识，以及各要素对游客真实性体验的影响。研究结论表明：表演人员的妆扮、歌舞表演的主要内容、伴奏时所使用的乐器、表演的气氛、舞蹈的基本动作、表演人员的精神面貌，主持人的解说等对歌舞真实性影响最大；其次为表演人员所属的民族、年龄、表演场地、歌舞培养方式、音乐的节奏旋律是否经过改编、演唱时所使用的语言、演出服装采用日常生活服装；表演人员的性别、表演时间、节目表演的先后顺序对歌舞旅游产品真实性没有影响。
