• What merits greater scholarly attention in international business? AI翻译
  作者：Grogaard, Birgitte; Sartor, Michael A.; Rademaker, Linda
  作者单位：BI Norwegian Business School; Queens University - Canada
  摘要：Scholarly efforts to propose future directions for international business (IB) research have generated a timely and extensive inventory of potentially interesting areas of research. We supplement this line of inquiry by suggesting that an additional layer of scrutiny could be beneficial when advocating in favor of giving more attention to particular research realms. Specifically, we advance several guiding principles that will help IB scholars assess which research areas merit greater scholarl...
• Transporting transparency: Director foreign experience and corporate information environment AI翻译

  摘要：Using hand-collected data and exploiting a natural experiment in China, we show that directors with foreign experience improve corporate transparency in emerging markets. The positive effect of these directors manifests itself if their experience originates from countries with high disclosure quality, if they reach a critical mass at the board, or if they serve on the audit committee. When exploring potential channels, we find that earnings transparency and voluntary disclosure increase after ...
• Beyond Doing as the Romans Do: A review of research on countercultural business practices AI翻译
  作者：Caprar, Dan, V; Kim, Sunghoon; Walker, Benjamin W.; Caligiuri, Paula

  摘要：There has long been a dominant logic in the international business literature that multinational corporations should adapt business practices to fit host cultures. Business practices that are congruent with local cultural norms have been advocated as effective and desirable, while practices that are incongruent have been deemed problematic. We examine and challenge this persistent assumption by reviewing the literature showing evidence for both benefits and acceptance of countercultural practi...
• The influence of culture on the relationship between women directors and corporate social performance AI翻译

  摘要：We examine the relationship between women directors and corporate social performance (CSP) by considering the contingency effects of home-country culture. Drawing on upper echelons and social role theories, we hypothesize that greater women representation on boards positively affects CSP due to their distinctive expertise, perspectives, and knowledge in this area, which strengthen their firms' attention and resources devoted to it. We then draw on the cultural perspective to explain how nation...
• Neglected elements: What we should cover more of in international business research AI翻译
  作者：Arikan, Ilgaz; Shenkar, Oded

  摘要：The international business (IB) field is maturing and developing conceptual frameworks, dedicated applications, and precise tools. In the course of this progression, the field has started to break away from its disciplinary roots, establishing parsimonious models using finely tuned but confined approaches. While fruitful in solidifying the sovereignty of the field, this progression comes at the expense of detecting and building on major undercurrents that define the rich IB context. We return ...
• When does multicollinearity bias coefficients and cause type 1 errors? A reconciliation of Lindner, Puck, and Verbeke (2020) with Kalnins (2018) AI翻译
  作者：Kalnins, Arturs
  作者单位：University of Iowa
  摘要：Lindner et al. (J Int Bus Stud 51:283-298, 2020; hereafter LPV) and Kalnins (Strateg Manag J 39(8):2362-2385, 2018) have published recent original analyses on multicollinearity, but the conclusions appear contradictory. LPV argue that multicollinearity does not affect the validity of regression coefficients, but only their reliability. In other words, multicollinearity does not bias coefficients, but only inflates standard errors. In Kalnins (2018), I conclude that multicollinearity may bias c...
• Human behavior and judgment: A critical nano-foundation for the Uppsala model and international business studies AI翻译
  作者：Vahlne, Jan-Erik; Schweizer, Roger
  作者单位：University of Gothenburg
  摘要：Economists and researchers of decision-making and business behavior increasingly rely on findings from the field of economic psychology. We argue that, by following a similar route, knowledge of firms' internationalization is considerably enriched. The aim of this commentary is to point to the potential of including insights from research on human cognition and judgment in explaining internationalization behavior. We offer some examples relying upon commitments and knowledge development as out...
• Do foreign firms help make local firms greener? Evidence of environmental spillovers in China AI翻译
  作者：Kim, Nahyun; Sun, Junxiu; Yin, Haitao; Moon, Jon Jungbien
  作者单位：Tilburg University; Shanghai University of Finance & Economics; Shanghai Jiao Tong University; Korea University
  摘要：The literature on foreign direct investment offers rich evidence that foreign firms outperform their local peers in emerging economies from an environmental perspective. However, it remains unclear whether local firms can learn from the environmental excellence of foreign firms to undertake cleaner production, which helps protect the host country's natural environment. This environmental spillover effect may offer critical support to the pollution halo effect; however, it has received insuffic...
• Beyond addressing multicollinearity: Robust quantitative analysis and machine learning in international business research AI翻译
  作者：Lindner, Thomas; Puck, Jonas; Verbeke, Alain
  作者单位：University of Innsbruck; Vienna University of Economics & Business; University of Calgary; University of Reading; Vrije Universiteit Brussel
  摘要：We reconcile the recommendations made by Kalnins (J Int Bus Stud, 2022) on the one hand and by Lindner, Puck and Verbeke (J Int Bus Stud 51(3):283-298, 2020) on the other, on how international business (IB) quantitative researchers should treat multicollinearity. We explain that, in principle, treatment depends on the underlying data generation process, but note that datasets based on any single generation process are rare. In doing so, we broaden the discussion to include how research methods...
• How do MNEs invent? An invention-based perspective of MNE profitability AI翻译
  作者：Kafouros, Mario; Hashai, Niron; Tardios, Janja Annabel; Wang, Elizabeth Yi
  作者单位：University of Manchester; Alliance Manchester Business School; Reichman University; Brunel University; University of Leeds
  摘要：Although MNEs create inventions both internally and collaboratively with partners as well as within and across countries, we know very little about the effects that combining such inventive activities have on their profitability. This study develops an invention-based perspective that considers how MNEs' profitability is influenced by the ways they organize the development of inventions across organizational boundaries (internally or collaboratively) and geographic boundaries (within or across...
