This paper examines procedural justice principles from a cultural perspective, and examines the relationships between three dimensions of national culture (uncertainty avoidance, societal emphasis on collectivism, and gender egalitarianism), three principles of procedural justice (consistency, social sensitivity, and account-giving), and judgments of fairness. The results suggest that culture can influence employees' perceptions of the fairness of procedural justice principles; different dimensions of national culture influence different principles of procedural justice. The principle of social sensitivity was perceived as fairer in collectivistic China than in individualistic U.S. In addition, differences between men and women in perceived fairness of account-giving were exaggerated in China (a culture low in gender egalitarianism) and attenuated in the U.S. (a culture high in gender egalitarianism). 相似文献

In this article we present results on the Shannon information (SI) contained in upper (lower) record values and associated
record times in a sequence of i.i.d continuous variables. We then establish an interesting relationship between the SI content
of a random sample of fixed size, and the SI in the data consisting of sequential maxima. We also consider the information
contained in the record data from an inverse sampling plan (ISP). 相似文献

The objectives of the present study were to: (1) assess the relative importance of driver and choice factors in wine consumption behaviour, (2) assess the impact of generational cohorts upon drivers of wine consumption and wine choice factors, and (3) compare the present study's survey results relating to wine choice to those obtained by means of Discrete Choice Analysis (DCA). A geographically balanced sample of 1,229 Australian wine consumers was obtained via means of telephone survey. The results of the present study indicate that taste is the primary choice and driver factor. The present findings failed to support the empirical literature's predications relating to generational cohorts and wine consumption behaviour. Further research is required in order to assess the suitability of making and marketing wine based on generational cohort characteristics. Finally, the findings of the present study suggest that, when it comes to wine choice, a simple, cost and time effective questionnaire that utilises indirect questioning may be equally as effective as DCA. If further research continues to show congruence between results collected using both methodologies, the research community may be behoved to continue the use of traditional survey methodology. 相似文献

A rapid integration of financial markets has prevailed during the last three decades. Investors are able to diversify investment beyond national markets to mitigate return volatility of a “pure domestic portfolio.” This article discusses a simulation project through which students learn the role of international investment by managing their own portfolios. The article explains the project's investment ground rule, trading requirement, and grading rubric. The students are required to examine many important factors in international business such as currency risks and regional policies. The structure of this project can also be applied to a course involving student-managed investment funds. 相似文献

In this paper, a sustainable industrial marketing framework of latest requirement of green and sustainable operation is proposed. When literatures in strategy, marketing and operation have provided insight about the efficiency of reverse logistics and business value for the customer, the interrelationship is still under explored. This raises the question whether manufacturers could determine ecological friendly strategies to address their customer's environmental conscious needs and design the suitable solution to strike the balance between ecology and economics. Based on the case study of a medical product manufacturer, this study addresses this question by investigating how manufacturers identify the problem of reverse logistics; design and develop of sustainable product and service by enhancing the efficiency of operations, and market competencies that add value to their customers' business processes. Within the strategy for designing for effective reverse logistics, these findings contribute to understand the use of information system and technology for reverse logistics to enhance the customer's business process and provide value-added process for customer retention. 相似文献

Ship routing and scheduling is an important activity for ship operators at both planning and operation levels. Ship operators,
as commercial entities, have to closely monitor routing and scheduling in relation to their financial implications. This paper
presents an integrated approach for port selection, ship scheduling and financial analysis. It aims to discuss the architecture
and the major features of an integrated intelligent system for liner shipping. Currently many liners still perform ship routing
and scheduling manually based on professional knowledge and experience. The proposed system is developed with an international
liner company and is flexible to account for user inputs according to the real situation in the port selection module. Also
the system provides two modes in the scheduling module: automatic and manual. The automatic mode makes use of an optimisation
model to find the optimal proforma schedule (PFS). The manual mode allows manual modifications to be performed to accommodate
the existing liners to allow for a smooth implementation. The financial analysis module examines the financial consequences
of the PFS which are crucial for making commercial decisions. As a whole, the solution algorithm calls for an integrated approach
that can integrate data from various sources with different levels of certainties and accuracies, knowledge gained from practical
operations and optimisation routines. The system will be useful for ship operators in liner shipping. 相似文献

Patterns of maritime supply chains: slot capacity analysis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

This paper offers a tool for analysing patterns of maritime supply chains. The study uses empirical data on slot capacity deployed by container shipping lines for analysing ports (as nodes) and routes and shipping lines (as links) that are embedded within the maritime supply chain. The ports of Singapore and Hong Kong are chosen to illustrate the respective transhipment and gateway perspectives. Findings reveal that geographical location and changes in the constitution of players can have reverberations on the maritime supply chain dynamics that traverse the port. Furthermore, evidence from trade route data also shows that maritime supply chain dynamics associated with transhipment and gateway ports could be governed by different levels of scope economies, demand complementarity and market power. The paper illustrates the abundant potential of slot capacity analysis for academic and industry/market research. Thus, future research can be pursued in various contexts and for different applications. 相似文献

Re-measuring agency costs: The effectiveness of blockholders 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study examines the effectiveness of blockholders in mitigating agency costs such as managerial extravagance, poor asset management and underinvestment. Our evidence suggests that outside and inside blockholders exert their interventions differently. We find that outside blockholders are more vigilant about mitigating managerial extravagance while inside blockholders, especially managerial blockholders, are more effective in improving the efficiency of firm asset utilization. However, only managerial blockholders significantly overcome underinvestment problems, which may be attributable to their duality roles. 相似文献
