This empirical research explains the relationship between products attributes of an automobile and its volume of word of mouth and the mechanism of stimulating positive word of mouth and minimizing negative word of mouth? The primary findings are as follows: (1) failing reliability/quality of an automobile stimulates negative word of mouth whereas failing its performance/design does not necessarily lead to negative word of mouth. (2) Improving performance/design of a car produces positive word of mouth whereas improving its reliability/quality does not necessarily translate to positive word of mouth. (3) A new (re) designed model drives more both positive and negative word of mouth than a nonnew one. Similarly, a car model with a short history drives more both positive and negative word of mouth than a model with a long history.

One reason companies implement internal controls is to reduce the likelihood of unethical behavior. Yet, ego depletion theory suggests that some controls may cause reductions in employees’ self-control, which could undermine the ability of controls to reduce unethical behavior. We examine whether various types of controls impact self-control and ethical judgments. Our results show that contrary to the ego depletion hypothesis, we find no significant relation between self-control and internal controls. Furthermore, we find that controls have no effect on ethical judgments or ethical ideology. Thus, our results suggest that internal controls do not differentially impact self-control and ethical decision-making.

In the European Union, residential districts consume a high share of the total electricity, which is still mainly generated by conventional power plants. Consequently, utilising renewable energy carriers is necessary to mitigate climate change. Electricity storage systems are needed to address the fluctuation and the temporal shift between power generation and consumption, caused by a switch to energy carriers like solar and wind. To assess the electricity generation and the storage operation a techno-economic bottom-up model is applied. The goal is the dispatch optimisation of the analysed residential district in on-grid and off-grid cases considering an increasing application of battery electric vehicles. The combination with a Life Cycle Assessment allows the valuation of the environmental impacts of the applied electricity storage system. Gained results show that the operation of a lithium-ion-ironphosphate (LFP) or a vanadium-redox-flow (VRF) battery system with an installed capacity of 182 kWh is resulting in an increased utilisation of generated photovoltaic electricity. A reduction up to 17,968 kWh of grid supply is possible by utilising the LFP in scenario I. Higher installed capacities are dependent on electricity generation and demand. In the analysed energy system model increasing demand due to battery electric vehicles makes higher installed capacities of LFP meaningful. The off-grid system exhibits high degrees of self-supply and autarky, when the installed capacity of LFP accounts for 2850 kWh. But a self-sufficient operation is not possible. The low amount of charge and discharge cycles is indicating that calendric aging is more important than cycle life for stationary electricity storage systems. The valve-regulated-lead-acid battery is not operated due to its low cycle life, furthermore it exhibits the highest amounts in all analysed impact categories when discharging 1 MWh of electricity. The operation of VRF shows higher impacts in climate change and freshwater ecotoxicity than the LFP but results in lower values in the impact category resource depletion.

A 23% increase in the number of family members that find themselves as care providers has been documented throughout the last decade. Accompanied is a family member who accompanies any terminal ill family member. This project examines a system-design solution for the helplessness and obstacles that the Accompanied experiences. This project found that the most efficient service for alleviating the Accompanied’s helplessness is a Case Facilitator (CF) who has expert knowledge of the health bureaucratic system and Interpersonal skills. This system-design solution could also solve similar problems for any person who find themselves dealing with liminal bureaucratic spaces.

This paper estimates a series of production functions that explain the number of points a National Football League team will score during a season based on six measures of its offensive performance. The models that are estimated are linear and Cobb-Douglas production functions, using data for each team for each season from 2000 to 2018. Additionally, separate production functions are estimated for two sub-periods to determine whether the production functions vary over time and an accuracy check is performed at the end of the paper, where each team’s actual points are compared to its predicted points for the 2018 season.
