This study utilizes psychological ownership theory as theoretical framework to examine high-performance work practices, and attitudinal and behavioral performance as associations of psychological ownership on the population level. Psychological ownership describes a mindset which allows individuals to experience ownership feelings for a target (e.g., organization) regardless of legal ownership rights. Further, psychological ownership theory is integrated with and extended by contingency theory to analyze the moderation effects of societal culture. These effects have been assumed for over 30 years but hardly backed by empirical evidence from cross-cultural samples. Thus, this study analyzes data from 351,919 individuals who participated in 139 published and unpublished studies, using rigorous and advanced meta-analytic techniques. The results show that compensation and benefits, job and work design, and communication practices foster psychological ownership, which in turn enhances constructive deviant behavior, task performance, and favorable attitude while weakening unfavorable attitude. Societal culture significantly strengthens these relationships.

We define an extreme loss event as a daily return at the left tail of negative two standard deviations of all daily returns for a specific stock. Prior studies focus on the relationship between extreme losses and specific anticipated announcements. Our study identifies the extreme loss events after they are randomly realized, and examines the return patterns of the equities in question on stochastic event setups. We investigate the daily returns of 2,651 stocks traded in the U.S. equity markets and identified 217,990 extreme loss events from the 1950s to early 2019. Our findings show that after an extreme loss, an asset realizes, on average, a daily return of 0.8459% on the first day, and 1.8099% cumulatively in the following 5-day window. We attribute the fast recovery to the investors’ overreaction. This suggests an extreme loss reversal trading strategy. Our confirmation suggests that behavioral bias may not be corrected or eliminated through arbitrage.

Knowledge sharing is the fundamental measure through which knowledge workers can significantly contribute to innovation and eventually the competitive advantage of the organization. Drawing upon the knowledge-based view of firms, the present study aims to examine the moderating role of knowledge sharing on the relationship between HRM practices and knowledge workers’ retention in the healthcare sector. After the COVID impact, healthcare knowledge workers have become a point for wide scholarly discussion and appropriate HRM practices should be implemented to amplify their probability of a longer stay in the organization. Hence, this research has incorporated PLS-SEM for empirical investigation which is based on prior discussions with some healthcare experts. The results propagate that knowledge sharing moderates HRM practices-retention linkage except training and development which is found to be statistically insignificant. The empirical evidence generated could be crucial for researchers and practitioners within the healthcare sector, thereby, extending assistance in establishing world-wide recognition.

We investigate the impact of federal budget deficits and other factors on the ex-post and ex-ante real yields on high-grade municipal bonds. The estimation results reveal that both yields increase with the real yield on 30-year Moody’s Aaa-rated bonds and provisions in the Community Reinvestment Act but decrease with net capital inflows, the real GDP growth rate, and the average effective federal income tax rate. Most importantly, both yields are increasing functions of the federal budget deficit. These results support limiting the size of federal budget deficits to avoid the excessive crowding out of private investment spending.

In recent years, there is increasing attention to examining the relationship between oil prices, financial markets, and the economy. Relatively little is known about the dynamic relationship between structural oil shocks and financial market stress of countries, which are majorly dependent on oil price fluctuations. This paper examines the impact of structural oil shocks (oil supply shocks, global aggregate demand shocks, speculative shocks, and other oil shocks) on the financial stress of major oil-exporting and-importing economies. In this study, we construct a financial stress index and using a structural vector autoregression model, we investigate the effects of oil price shocks on the financial stress of major oil-exporting and importing economies. We find evidence that global demand shocks, followed by speculative demand shocks, have significant impacts on financial stress. Furthermore, the US subprime crisis has a significant bearing on the response of the financial stress index to structural oil shocks. The magnitude of oil price shocks on financial stress has subdued during the post-crisis period.

The study investigates service brand loyalty antecedents as evidenced by brand name attributes and attitudes toward services and advertisements. Print advertisements from ten service industries are analyzed using multiple regression. A model is provided examining the influences of service type, brand name attributes, and attitudes toward the services and advertisements on respondent propensity for service brand loyalty. Significant loyalty resulted with all advertisements for attitudes toward the service provided and the advertisement with exception for airlines. Brand name attributes impacted only four services including design, healthcare, insurance, and airline offerings. Across all industries, service attitude had the greatest effect followed by advertisement attitude. Loyalty for design and insurance services was influenced by all three antecedents with the greatest impact demonstrated for health care. In contrast, airlines exhibited the least effects. Services rated as good or likeable, with brand names that sent a message and explained the service, and whose advertisements evoked useful and informative attitudes were the strongest loyalty indicators. Further insight is gained as tailored advertising strategies across industries with recognition for specific service types are recommended. A one-size standardized approach is not effective as service type is proven to have significant impact on brand loyalty. The model findings provide comprehensive support for prior recognition of service type and identified service advertisement antecedents which will then foster increased service brand loyalty.

In this paper, we show a nonlinear relation between promoter ownership and dividends in the Indian context, that is, promoters pay more dividends at lower level of their ownership while they pay lesser dividends when their ownership increases beyond a threshold. In particular, we find that the adverse impact of promoter ownership on dividends is greater only at higher level of ownership, where promoters become entrenched with their effective control, and outsiders face the greatest risk of expropriation. We contend that agency and information asymmetry problems are the factors driving our results. We establish this by showing that the nonlinear relation between promoter ownership and dividend payment is more pronounced for standalone firms than group affiliated firms, for firms with more free cash flows and for firms with smaller board and less number of independent directors in the board. Our results are robust to endogeneity concerns and testing the dividend payment decision (to pay or not to pay) using the binary choice logit model.

This study examines hedging activities around hiring of chief executive officer (CEO). Data on the use of derivatives by a sample of oil and gas firms were hand collected from the 10-k filings and compared for several years before and after a CEO change. A regression method was employed to examine if hedging is associated with the CEO change after controlling for the effects of hedging variables. The findings show that net hedging decreased from three years prior to CEO hiring and increased for several years thereafter. The regression results show that hiring of a new CEO explains change in hedging one year after the CEO is hired when interactions among the explanatory variables are considered. This is one of the few studies that examine the relationship between hedging behavior and CEO change.

This paper examines the implications of firm-level governance mechanisms and the regulatory environment on the relationship between investor sentiment and accrual-based earnings management. Our findings confirm the positive impact of sentiment on earnings management through accruals. Our results confirm that in the presence of a stringent regulatory environment, the likelihood of abnormal accruals following a positive sentiment environment is low. We document that a stringent regulatory environment reduces the likelihood of abnormal accruals following a positive sentiment environment. Results further confirm that improved governance characteristics like larger board, increased board independence, and stringent related party transaction norms help to monitor corporate behaviour and mitigates opportunistic earnings management activity of managers with an exogeneous effect of market sentiment. Thus, our results have important implications for regulators and policymakers for strengthening the regulatory and monitoring environment. Investors may also use earnings announcement news during an optimistic market sentiment scenario in a more informative way.

Though current scholarly interest generates a sustained growth of literature on open innovation, we need to learn more about human resource practices relating to open innovation. Building on the ability-motivation-opportunity (AMO) framework, we demonstrate the differential impact of human resources practice bundles on open innovation. We also find evidence that motivation-enhancing and competency-enhancing practices share a compensating effect on open innovation. Using firm-level data from 2540 Italian manufacturing firms, our study, if not first, contributes to the growing bodies of research on open innovation by bringing forth the human dimension to the forefront and offering a drilled-down practice-level view that needs to be addressed in the literature.
