摘要：Theory suggests and results show that firm performance is initially positive but eventually levels off and becomes negative as international diversification increases. Product diversification moderates the relationship between international diversification and performance. International diversification is negatively related to performance in nondiversified firms, positively related in highly product-diversified firms, and curvilinearly related in moderately product-diversified firms. Internati...

摘要：We examined the use of event studies in management research and found that there was inadequate attention paid to theoretical and research design issues, This lack of attention may lead to false inferences regarding the significance of the events and the validity of the theories being tested, To illustrate the extent of this problem, we attempted to replicate three recent studies, To guide authors and reviewers, we outline procedures for appropriate use of the event study method.

摘要：We evaluated the impact of human resource (HR) managers' capabilities on HR management effectiveness and the latter's impact on corporate financial performance. For 293 U.S. firms, effectiveness was associated with capabilities and attributes of HR staff. We also found relationships between HR management effectiveness and productivity, cash flow, and market value. Findings were consistent across market and accounting measures of performance and with corrections for biases.

摘要：Employees develop exchange relationships both with organizations and immediate superiors, as evidenced by research on perceived organizational support (POS) and leader-member exchange (LMX), respectively. Despite conceptual similarities between these two constructs, theoretical development and research has proceeded independently. in an attempt to integrate these literatures, we developed and tested a model of the antecedents and consequences of POS and LMX, based on social exchange theory. Re...

摘要：Research on both ethics and organizational justice distinguishes between process and outcome concerns. However, little research integrates these two areas. This study examined the influence of individuals' ethical frameworks on perceptions of organizational justice. We found that ethical formalists were more sensitive to procedural justice issues and ethical utilitarians were more sensitive to distributive justice issues. The implications of these results for both organizational justice and et...

摘要：This study examined the role that the gender of job informants plays in the job-finding process for men and women. Data on job seekers at a large bank were used to test hypotheses derived from work on social distance and gender segregation. Our results suggest that jobs found via cross-gender referrals are hierarchically lower than the jobs of the informants and that women refer job seekers to gender-typical jobs more than men do.

摘要：We explored the differences between the joint venture, total ownership, and partial equity positions used by Japanese companies investing in U.S. manufacturing via a secondary data analysis. Partial ownership was used significantly more often in high-technology industries. Joint ventures were significantly more likely to he used in politically sensitive industries and in new entities, and when the Japanese partner had experience with the product.

摘要：Process design principles from organization science offer insights for constructing learning systems that produce consistent, high-quality management education. We incorporated key process design concepts into a structure for graduate and undergraduate management and organizational behavior courses and then tested predictions using path analysis and comparative measures of dispersion. Results indicate that variety designed into a learning system can overcome extensive individual differences in...
