摘要：The erosion of professional ethics in medicine has severe consequences for patients and society. Existing approaches often rely on retrospective analysis and lack the precision and timeliness needed to effectively identify and mitigate risks. Although patient online reviews offer a unique opportunity to proactively detect ethical issues by providing candid, unsolicited feedback on healthcare experiences, few studies have empirically established the link between patient reviews and ethical brea...

摘要：Recreational cannabis legalization has become an unprecedented trend in the United States, arousing heated debates on its implications for public health. Legalizing access to recreational cannabis may shrink the illicit market as it could be a substitute for illicit substances-the substitution effect. Alternatively, recreational cannabis may serve as a gateway drug to illicit drugs and raise the risk of using illicit substances-the gateway effect. Using novel darknet transactional data along w...

摘要：Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the core of present-day health and humanitarian logistics. Aid organizations advocate inclusive people-centered approaches to ensure that affected communities receive appropriate aid in an effective and equitable way. Tensions and even conflicts can arise if affected communities perceive the distribution of aid as inequitable. These perceptions are driven by people's so-called distributional preferences. These preferences are shaped by culture, social bo...

摘要：Amidst stakeholder demands for transparency and the recent pandemic, the inner workings of supply chains have become more visible. This visibility has shone a spotlight on workplace corporate social irresponsibility (CSI)-actions within a company's internal supply chain operations perceived to harm the well-being of its employees. At the same time, companies scrambling to recruit new talent for operations and supply chain management (OM/SCM) face dual challenges in the shortage of diverse tale...

摘要：Many online labor markets face challenges in matching service providers with employers because of the high uncertainty in online environments compared to traditional ones. While prior studies have mostly focused on the uncertainty that employers face with service providers, our study explores the uncertainty service providers face when selecting projects on which to bid. Specifically, our study examines the role of project description in the Call for Bids (CFB) that describes the services requ...

摘要：The financial industry is plagued with account-based fraudulent transactions in which perpetrators surreptitiously siphon away money from customer accounts. To address this recurrent problem, service operations teams at financial institutions (e.g., the fraud detection and mitigation teams) spend millions yearly identifying perpetrators, attributing blame, and averting customer churn. However, in the vast majority of cases, the service operations teams cannot trace fraudulent transactions back...

摘要：Dominant online platforms are increasingly collecting user-specific data across multiple markets, raising red flags as regards privacy, as well as potential anti-competitive abuses. We analyze competition among two platforms, with one platform collecting data in market 1 where it is dominant, using it to improve its competitive edge in market 2 where it competes in both prices and advertisements with the other platform. Our analysis unearths a novel anti-competitive effect of competition-that ...

摘要：Currently, major online retail platforms, such as Amazon and JD, provide both conventional reselling channels and online marketplaces (i.e., agency channels), enabling their suppliers to encroach more efficiently than the traditional self-established direct channel. We construct a parsimonious model of a bilateral monopoly supply chain where the supplier can encroach through online marketplaces as both reselling and agency channels are available. Surprisingly, the encroachment option does not ...

摘要：We study the impact of government financing designed to promote clean technology advancement. Government financing offers loans for financially constrained firms that manufacture and market clean-technology products. We build an analytical model to explore the impact of such government financing in the presence of market uncertainty. Our analysis shows that compared to prevalent commercial financing schemes such as bank financing and equity financing, government financing encourages firms to p...

摘要：Language system diversity is a source of individual differences. Research on human cognition has established that writing direction influences non-linguistic mental schemata such as spatial orientation. However, there is little empirical evidence of its impact on task performance. We examine whether task performance in manual order-picking is higher when the in-aisle travel direction follows the writing direction of order pickers. We conducted this study in cooperation with a German brick-and-...
