摘要：Why do some homogeneous groups face backlash for lacking diversity, whereas others escape censure? We show that a homogeneous group's size changes how it is perceived and whether decision makers pursue greater diversity in its ranks. We theorize that people make different inferences about larger groups than smaller ones-with consequences for diversity management-due to Bayesian reasoning. This can produce sensitivity to a lack of diversity in large groups and limited sensitivity to a lack of d...

摘要：Existing theory suggests that professionals are ineffective at regulating the work of their peers, especially when it comes to disciplining misconduct, because of professional norms of collegiality. In response, transparency measures have been put in place over the years to increase accountability toward key external audiences, such as the public, and to ensure that professionals hold guilty peers accountable for misconduct. Few studies, however, have sufficiently investigated how professional...

摘要：Generative artificial intelligence (AI) holds the potential to either complement workers by enhancing their productivity or substitute them. We examine the short-term effects of the recently released generative AI models (ChatGPT, DALL-E 2, and Midjourney) on the employment outcomes of freelancers on a large online platform. We find that freelancers in highly affected occupations suffer from the introduction of generative AI, experiencing reductions in both employment and earnings. We find sim...

摘要：We study how restrictive immigration policies that result in the unexpected loss of coworkers affect the performance of skilled migrants employed in organizations. Specifically, we examine the impact of the loss of team members on their coworkers' performance in response to the unexpectedly increased denials of extensions of H -1B work visas in the United States beginning in 2017. Losing a team member generally has a positive, albeit economically insignificant, effect on the performance of wor...

摘要：Social evaluations proceed in stages. First, judges filter a broad pool of candidates and pick a subset for detailed assessment. Then, the chosen group undergoes a closer examination, during which winners are selected. At both stages of the process, judges are susceptible to bias. Bias is especially commonplace when contenders work in teams because each team member's merit can be hard to distinguish from that of others. Our paper investigates evaluation bias originating in intrateam status asy...

摘要：The ideal worker is represented as constantly available for work. However, an increasing number and variety of workers experience conflict between work and family demands. Research has identified numerous practices to manage this conflict with positive implications for non -work relationships, but the implications of these practices for work relationships remain unclear. How do efforts to manage role conflict affect workplace relationships? To examine this question, we draw on ethnographic dat...

摘要：By integrating Herbert Simon's theory of artifact and Brian Arthur's concept of functionality in technology, we propose a novel conceptual framework for analyzing the process by which shadow options embedded in a firm's existing technologies emerge and are converted into real options. We apply this framework to examine the shadow options of Corning's photosensitive glass technologies. The core of our model is that technologies subsume options, most of which are shadow because they refer to fun...
