摘要:Triggered by a territorial dispute as well as historical animosity, a nationwide civilian boycott of Japanese products took place in China in the summer of 2012. Using detailed data on vehicle sales in four major Chinese cities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Nanjing), this study investigates the impact of boycotts on sales and advertising effectiveness of products from different countries of origin. The boycott dramatically reduced the market share of Japanese brands and benefitted Chinese a...

摘要:We review past research and discuss future directions on how the vibrant re-search areas of market design and behavioral economics have influenced and will continue to impact the science and practice of management in both the private and public sectors. Using examples from various auction markets, reputation and feedback systems in online markets, matching markets in education, and labor markets, we demonstrate that com-bining market design theory, behavioral insights, and experimental methods...

摘要:Optimization has been one of the most fundamental and extensive contributions of management science/operations research, with an enormous number of contributions and subfields developed by many researchers and practitioners. When the journal Management Science launched in 1954, little was known about optimization, including some results in nonlinear optimization and the simplex method and duality developed for linear programming. However, linear programming computations were limited to problem...

摘要:I argue that academic research in accounting has strayed from producing work that is useful to either practitioners or policy makers. I use three criteria to arrive at that assessment: (i) How many products and processes have accounting research produced in the last 50 years? (ii) How much overlap do we observe between issues that Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) and Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) worry about and our published research? (iii) Is the science or the knowhow in academe in a parti...

摘要:Prior research suggests that averaging two guesses from the same person can improve quantitative judgments, a phenomenon known as the wisdom of the inner crowd. In this article, we find that this effect hinges on whether people explicitly decide in which direction their first guess had erred before making their second guess. In nine studies (N = 8,465), we found that asking people to explicitly indicate whether their first guess was too high or too low before making their second guess made peo...

摘要:This paper uses the 65th anniversary of Management Science as an opportunity to examine how well the journal has performed against its primary goal to promote development and encourage application of a science of management. We also highlight recent trends that are impacting this mission and discuss how recent initiatives address these issues.

摘要:I analyze project continuation decisions where firms may resolve uncertainty through news about competitors' research and development (R&D) failures, as well as through their own results. I examine the tradeoffs and interactions between product market competition and technological learning from parallel R&D projects. Leveraging the biopharmaceutical industry's unique characteristics to overcome barriers to measuring project-level responses, I use a difference-in-differences strategy to evaluat...

摘要:Many patients in need of a kidney transplant have a willing but incompatible (or poorly matched) living donor. Kidney exchange programs arrange exchanges among such patient-donor pairs, in cycles and chains of exchange, so that each patient receives a compatible kidney. Kidney exchange has become a standard form of transplantation in the United States and a few other countries, in large part because of continued attention to the operational details that arose as obstacles were overcome and new...
