The purpose of this research is to investigate how personal traits influence work engagement on crowdsourcing platform through achievement goals. This study uses Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (RST) in order to explain initial energization of behavior as well as Achievement goal theory's constructs to explain direction of this energy. The indirect effects of Fight-Flight-Freeze system (FFFS) through performance approach and performance avoidance goals on work engagement has been studied. The results of current study show that avoidance based personal trait FFFS indirectly relates to work engagement through performance approach and performance avoidance goals, such as FFFS positively predicts work engagement through performance approach goals and negatively predict work engagement through performance avoidance goals. In addition, this study proves that FFFS positively predict adoption of both performance approach and performance avoidance goals. Hence, promoting adoption of performance approach goals is a good way for improving workers' work engagement. These results are important for crowdsourcing platform managers and could help them to improve work engagement of workers without providing additional reward.

The purpose of this paper is to study the operation model and adaptive mechanism of new R&D system. It is of great theoretical and practical significance to the development and operation of the new R&D system. This research applies the systematic thinking to carry out the connotation of new R&D system with new interpretation on the basis of the complex adaptive system theory, and the complex adaptive characteristics of the complex adaptive system are analyzed to establish the complex adaptive system operation model of new R&D system, while the adaptive mechanisms of its multi-agent such as learning, collaboration, emergence, etc., are studied. Study results show that, the new R&D system is complex adaptive system, it is the emergence results for adapting with environmental changes. Consequently, the formulation of each relevant policy should be systematically considered characteristics of adaptability, nonlinear, butterfly effect, system hierarchical structure, integrity, etc.

A supply line underweighting is a robust decision error that can lead to the bullwhip effect. Finding the antecedents to the underweighting is valuable for lowering the operating cost of a supply chain. This research studies whether the recency effect, a cognitive bias under which recent information is emphasized more than historical information, can generate the supply line underweighting. A multiperiod ordering model is established, which characterizes the influence of the recency effect on the ordering behavior by a demand-chasing fashion. A series of simulation experiments are conducted and the results show that the recency effect is a behavioral antecedent to the supply line underweighting; under the influence of the recency effect, the increasing ordering lead-time and demand volatility will intensify the supply line underweighting.

In a globalized world, executives and managers face daily the inevitability task of making risky decisions involving different sums of money. In many cases, these decisions arise in a foreign language environment. One main question is to what extent can foreign language change the course of action in decision-making at risk? This study aimed to investigate two effects, the influence of Foreign Language Effect (FLe) in decision-making behavior to analyze Brazilians' and Poles' choices in a loss aversion bet game and to compare the risk acceptance level among groups using English as a foreign language and native languages. Additionally, we compare Brazilians and Poles acceptance level in their mother tongue. Results from 150 people living in Poland and 83 people living in Brazil indicated that both groups are less risk averse in almost all levels of bets, showing that the FLe could reduce, to some extent, the loss aversion on risk aversion bias, and, although native Brazilian participants were more risk averse in both high and low-stakes, it was not possible to verify the relationship between the country of origin and the change in the betting acceptance pattern between these two groups.

Studies that have been done in order to understand how virtual teams work and the impact of such a form of collaboration on team performance have revealed contradictory results, confirming in some cases the viability of virtual teams and consecrating in others, their inferiority compared to the face to face teams. The objective of this paper is to explain this inconsistency, by reviewing the literature on the matter. We have also, proposed an exploratory model based on the AST (Adaptive Structuration Theory) and the CVA (Competing Values Approach), that aims to explore the impact of virtual teamwork on group performance and outcomes.
