{"title":"Mean and Variability Effects in Decision Framing","authors":"Luke Greenacre","doi":"10.7903/CMR.15017","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7903/CMR.15017","url":null,"abstract":"Framing a decision as a rejection can lead consumers to form preferences that are different from those that they would form if that same decision were framed as a choice. These differences in preferences are called preference reversals. This paper extends research in this area, using a sequence of five studies to show that framing can change both mean preference and preference variability. The first study uses Discrete Choice Experiments to demonstrate the effects of framing a decision as a choice or rejection on decision outcomes. Study 2 uses eye tracking to highlight that differences in information gathering during the experiment are unlikely to account for this difference. Studies 3 through 5 demonstrate that differences in framing can be reduced through increasing task familiarity. A lack of familiarity with the task of rejecting leads consumers to change their mean preferences and also increases their preference variability for high- and low-preferred products, compared to when they are choosing. These changes in preferences cease to occur when familiarity with rejection increases, but only when that familiarity is specific to the product context under examination. This demonstrates that framing can be used to influence consumer preferences in two ways. \u0000 \u0000Keywords: Choice, Rejection, Framing, Variance, Familiarity \u0000 \u0000To cite this document: Luke Greenacre, \"Mean and Variability Effects in Decision Framing\", Contemporary Management Research, Vol.12, No.3, pp. 309-336, 2016. \u0000 \u0000Permanent link to this document: \u0000http://dx.doi.org/10.7903/cmr.15017","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"235 1","pages":"309-335"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper explores recent conceptualisations of the early internationalisation processes of born global firms and their drivers within an industry context to determine how and why industry characteristics impact the internationalisation of born global firms. Drawing on the born global literature, this study adopts an exploratory, qualitative approach. The results from a multiple case study analysis of four Australia-based born global firms suggest that industry characteristics are a critical factor influencing each firm’s internationalisation decisions. The key findings include high levels of global integration motivating firms to internationalise, high levels of local competition driving the choice of international markets to improve the firm’s position in its domestic market, and the choice of entry mode being determined by industry trends. \u0000 \u0000Keywords: Born Global, Internationalisation, Industry Factors, Market Size, Choice of Markets, Entry Mode \u0000 \u0000To cite this document: Murray Taylor and Robert Jack, \"Born Global Firm Internationalisation: The Influence of Industry Factors\", Contemporary Management Research, Vol.12, No.3, pp. 289-308, 2016. \u0000 \u0000Permanent link to this document: \u0000http://dx.doi.org/10.7903/cmr.14892","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"289-308"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The country's formal tug of war competition started in 1997 (Lee & Hsieh, 2011), and the sport has been promoted by Taiwan's Ministry of Education since the early 1990s due to its traditional teamwork spirit and its basic skill requirements. With the government's support, the Chinese Taipei Tug of War Association has made strong efforts to introduce these competitions at all school levels and to hold competition events for students. As a result, the sport has become increasingly popular at all school levels, and Taiwanese athletes have won the World Championship several times. Students' sporting events play an important role in the country. They are the main channel for incubating elite athletes, and they are a way to develop knowledge about holding even larger sporting events. There are six major national sporting events in Taiwan, and two of them are held for student athletes. Therefore, there is a need to understand the quality of sporting events for student athletes.In the sports business, products or services are classified as core products and extension products (Li, Hofacre, & Mahony, 2001; Mullin, Hardy, & Sutton, 2016). Core sports products include (1) consumer participation in exercises or recreational or professional competition; and (2) spectators attending sports events and watching performances. Extension sport products depend on the existence of core products. For example, athletic shoes, apparel, sporting equipment, and coaching services are a consequence of people participating in sports, and sports-related broadcasting, marketing service, news, souvenirs, lottery, and online fantasy games are extension products of spectatorship. Therefore, core sport products are key factors in the success of the sports business, and a sporting event can generate these two core sports products.The success of a sporting event is determined by the degree to which it satisfies participants/athletes and spectators/fans with quality service (Ko, Kim, Kim, & Lee, 2010). This study focuses on participation-specifically, on athletes in a sporting event-because it is crucial to the event's success. For example, Venus Williams, a leading female tennis player, first participated in the WTA Taiwan Open in 2016. Her participation drew on average around 1,500 fans per day, which is two to three times more spectators than the previous year (Zeng, 2016). Williams was happy with her experience at the Taiwan Open and promised that she would attempt to convince her sister, Serena Williams, the highest ranked player in the world, to participate in the Taiwan Open the following year (Peng, 2016). What satisfies players or athletes and motivates them to participate in a sporting event? From a participant's point of view, service quality of a sporting event includes professional and well-organized competition settings, judges, schedules, sta","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"275-288"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cheung","doi":"10.7903/CMR.13836","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7903/CMR.13836","url":null,"abstract":"INTRODUCTIONSince mobile phones have become indispensable product in our daily lives, the quality and functions have been greatly improved. The smartphone industry is one of the fastest growing consumer electronic goods industries in the Hong Kong market. Research from Digitimes projects notes that global smartphone shipments rose from 655 million in 2012 to 865 million in 2013, and the proportion of overall handset shipments of smartphones is 43.9% (Digitimes, 2012). To stay competitive, many brands are launching new models with more product features in order to differentiate themselves (IDC, 2010), and smartphones have become products that incorporate sophisticated technologies. Since smartphone technology is rapidly evolving, an understanding of the critical factors that influence the adoption of smartphones is an important topic of study. This study focuses on examining the factors that influence the purchase intention of smartphones in Hong Kong.LITERATURE REVIEW AND HYPOTHESES DEVELOPMENTA number of studies have investigated the factors influencing purchase intention of smartphones. A theoretical modeling approach is used by most scholars to investigate these factors. These studies attempt to explain the technology acceptance model (TAM) and theory of reason action (TRA) to explain technology adoption. The TAM is generally considered as the most influential and common theory in the adoption of a technology (Davis, 1989). TAM is based on TRA, which addresses how attitude impacts behavior (Fishbein and Ajzen, 1975). Seven constructs and six hypotheses are outlined below.Purchase IntentionPurchase intention refers to the tendency for the consumer to take actual purchase action. Purchase intention shows one's willingness to purchase a product and his/her assessment of alternative options based on preference, experience, and external factors (Zeithaml, 1988).Perceived UsefulnessPerceived usefulness refers to users' beliefs that a smartphone could help individuals enhance their performance in terms of communication, personal management of activities, personal agendas, and entertainment (Davis, 1989). TAM also addresses perceived usefulness, one of the major determinants that predict the behavioral intention of a new technology (Cyr et al., 2006; Venkatesh, 2000). Therefore, the following hypothesis is proposed:H1: Perceived usefulness is positively related to purchase intentionPerceived Ease of UsePerceived ease of use can be referred to as the extent to which users believe that using a technology could be free of effort (Davis, 1989). Sometimes, even though an application or a technology is believed to be useful in completing tasks, simultaneously, users may believe that such a technology is too hard to use, so the performance benefits of usage are outweighed by the effort of using or learning the technology. Perceived ease of use is found to be one of the significant determinants of behavioral intentions to adopt new technology (Agarwal and Kar","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"213-224"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the increasing legitimizing power and wide diffusion of Western corporate governance and accountability, it is crucial to examine the practice of imported concepts in countries such as China, where the development of accounting profession has taken a different path and been shaped by contextual influences different from those of Anglo-American countries. Twenty-one semi-structured interviews were used to obtain insights into auditor independence. The findings suggest a discrepancy between the imported construct of auditor independence and China’s institutional context. China’s politico-economic and social contexts have narrowed construction of auditor independence to its economic dimension. Given the pervasiveness of guanxi, low legal risk, and intense competition in the audit services market, Chinese auditors are under pressure to lower audit fees, avoid issuing qualified opinions, and provide additional advice and assistance on financial reporting. We argue that when auditor independence, as developed in Western economies, is implemented in transitional economies, there is a need to take into account its ability to adapt. \u0000 \u0000Keywords: Auditing, Auditor Independence, China, Local Context \u0000 \u0000To cite this document: Huiying Wu and Sammy Xiaoyan Ying, \"Realizing Auditor Independence in China: Insights from the Local Context\", Contemporary Management Research, Vol.12, No.2, pp. 245-272, 2016. \u0000 \u0000Permanent link to this document: \u0000http://dx.doi.org/10.7903/cmr.15201","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"245-272"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Linking Perceived Organizational Support to Organizational Identification: Role of Organization Based Self-Esteem","authors":"Sumit Ghosh","doi":"10.7903/CMR.15765","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7903/CMR.15765","url":null,"abstract":"INTRODUCTIONEmployee turnover has been an issue affecting organizations for quite some time. Particularly, in the Indian context, it is believed that with increased economic growth, the organizations will have to deal with additional challenges of turnover intentions among the employees*. Several researchers have linked various wok attitudes and turnover intention with the constructs of Perceived Organizational Support (POS) (Rigglea, et al., 2009), Organization Based Self-esteem (OBSE) (Bowling, et al., 2010), and Organizational Identification (OID) (Besharov, 2014; Riketta, 2005). POS also has been positively linked to OBSE (Lee & Peccei, 2007) as well as OID (Sluss et al., 2008). Most of these studies clearly indicated that all three constructs are negatively related to turnover intentions and positively related to work attitudes, signifying their importance in the context of pro-organizational behavior. However, inter-relations among these variables have not been addressed adequately. Particularly, in the Indian context, the construct of OID has not been explored sufficiently. From perspective of social identity theory (explained in the later part of the paper), it has been argued that in a collectivist culture (Hofstede, 2001) like India, OID may play a significant role in reducing employee turnover. As this study was conducted in India, an attempt has been made to explore two of the plausible antecedents of OID, namely POS and OBSE. While POS has been widely studied, OBSE as an antecedent of OID cannot be ignored mainly because it makes individuals feel worthy in the context of the organization and helps them satisfy their self-esteem needs, leading to stronger organizational identification. Due to the lack of literature on the inter-relations among these variables, this study can significantly contribute to the existing body of knowledge as well as to the practicing world. It is further argued that it is important to understand these linkages to answer the following: a) Can POS, which builds a strong emotional connect with the organization (Eisenberger et al., 1986), and OID, which concerns \"cognitive\" connect (Mael & Ashforth 1992, p.105) be linked? b) Is this link direct or indirect through OBSE? c) Does self-esteem draw from the organization results when merging self-identity with organizational identity? Sound understanding of these relationships may help managers design human resource practices, which can reduce turnover intentions among the employees. The literature review revealed that not many attempts (except a few) have been made to link OBSE with OID. While the studies have theoretically and empirically linked POS with OID (Sluss, et al., 2008), hardly any studies have explained this relationship adequately. Hence, this study attempts to fill these gaps in the literature by:Empirically examining the link between OBSE and OID.Empirically explaining the relationship between POS and OID through OBSE.This study draws its basis from ","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"11 1","pages":"225-244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Past research has focused mainly on the organizational benefits of using temporary employees. In contrast, the results of our empirical study indicate that the continuous extension of involuntary temporary status resulted in lower self-reported and co-worker-rated organizational citizenship behaviors, higher self-reported and co-worker ratings of job neglect, and increased turnover intentions. The implications of a psychological contract breach in terms of managing a temporary workforce are also discussed. The findings present new knowledge of the attitudinal and behavioral consequences arising from employers’ failure to honor their promise of permanent employment to long-term temporary employees.

Collectivist cultures play a major role in the consumption decision-making process that an individual goes through, as culture typically affects consumers’ taste orientation, specifically toward luxury goods. The main motivation behind this study is to investigate the influence of two major collectivist cultural values—namely, face saving and group orientation—on the perception and consumption of luxury goods across two Arab market regions (i.e., the Levant versus the Gulf). A survey was completed by 400 consumers sampled from different universities in the capitals of Lebanon, Jordan, Qatar, and Oman. The results indicate that not all luxury-related factors influence face saving in the Levant and Gulf regions. In addition, no such factors influence group orientation in either region. Beliefs such as the assumption that group orientation plays a significant role in consumers’ decision making and that hedonism is not appreciated in Arab cultures are challenged, which indicate slow changes in the Arab cultures. These findings are useful to marketers who aim to promote luxury products in the Arab world as they provide a greater understanding of consumers’ perceptions of such products. \u0000 \u0000Keywords: Luxury Consumption, Personal Values, Cultural Values, Conspicuous Consumption, Arab Consumers \u0000 \u0000To cite this document: Maya F.

Boronico, Ahmed Maasher","doi":"10.7903/CMR.14431","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7903/CMR.14431","url":null,"abstract":"INTRODUCTIONIntense global competition is forcing the development of a culture that nurtures creativity. Conceptually, creativity is hard to define, and even when organizations succeed in innovation projects, managers are not always satisfied with the results (Fagerberg, Mowery, & Nelson, 2006). What can be done, however, is to establish a culture and environment that fosters value-added services (Coveney, 2008; Kozbelt, Beghetto, & Runco, 2010). In keeping with earlier realities of global competition, which certainly still hold true now, Amabile (1988, p. 126) asserted that creative employees have become the source of original and potentially useful ideas and solutions for a firm's renewal of products, services, and processes.Organizational creativity is considered a new research area (Shalley, Gilson, & Blum, 2009). The main focus of recent research on creativity has been on creative subprocesses in an operational sense (Rietzschel, De Dreu, & Nijstad, 2009) where there is an obvious need for an integrative framework for creativity applications in open and continuously innovative workplaces (Scharmer, 2009). The ability to develop a culture that nurtures creativity is crucial and if it does not occur spontaneously, managers need to take responsibility to establish the right work environment, as well as to develop innovation strategies that foster new ideas to be transformed into value-added services (Coveney, 2008).In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, construction and architectural design have experienced a significant boom in recent decades. This offers possibilities for researching the nexus between creativity, innovation and Saudi architectural firms' support for creativity. Thus, this paper examines the relationship between architectural design-related management practices and creativity in Saudi Arabia. The purpose of this study is to explore the factors affecting organizational creativity in five architectural firms operating in Saudi Arabia using Amabile's componential theory. The objective is to validate the hypotheses of this theory to help executives and decision makers in Saudi architectural firms to enhance their understanding of what makes their employees, and specifically designers, more creative and their organizations more innovative.THEORETICAL CONTEXT AND RESEARCH HYPOTHESESCreativity and Innovation in the WorkplaceCreativity is \"the production of novel and useful ideas in any domain\" (Amabile, Conti, Coon, Lazenby, & Herron, 1996, p. 1155). Hennessey and Amabile (2010) stated that creativity is the production of a novel and appropriate response or solution to a problem. The response must be new, valuable, and fitting to a particular goal. The terms creativity and innovation are also often stated in tandem in practice although there are some variations in meaning (Hunter, Bedell, & Mumford, 2007). The main distinction between the two is that creativity is the generation of creative ideas while innovation is the implementation of th","PeriodicalId":36973,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Management Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"89-120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71361638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
