By linking concepts and ideas from the private health services (PHS) and Knowledge-Intensive Business Services (KIBS) literature with Porter's generic framework, this paper aims to identify the competitive positioning at a micro-clinic level in the private health services industry and to examine the perceived role of the institutions and intellectual capital associated with each one. A Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) was used.The results show that organizational configurations are associated with proactivity when competing via differentiation. In contrast, cost leadership is linked to firms that compete with low tariffs and a defensivearchetype. Our work can serve as a basis to recommend specific competitive strategies for thehigh number of firms still following a stuck-in-the-middle positioning strategy.

O objetivo do estudo é analisar as relações da consistência do sistema de gestão de desempenho de recursos humanos, no engajamento no trabalho, mediado pela justiça organizacional, em uma Autarquia Pública Federal Brasileira. A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de uma survey single Entity. Os achados evidenciam que a consistência do sistema e a justiça organizacional são preditores do engajamento no trabalho. Existe um efeito mediador da justiça organizacional, que influencia a relação entre a consistência do sistema e o engajamento no trabalho. Os resultados oferecem a percepção da importância da consistência do sistema no setor público, e contribuem ao reafirmar que fatores comportamentais de servidores públicos são parte significativa na busca por melhores resultados organizacionais.

Este trabalho objetivou analisar o efeito moderador da folga financeira na relação entre divulgação ambiental, social e de governança (ESG) e desempenho contábil e de mercado, em empresas brasileiras. A amostra desbalanceada constituiu-se de empresas listadas na Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (B3), no período de 2016 a 2021. A pesquisa descritiva, documental e quantitativa, operacionalizou-se pela regressão linear por Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários (OLS). Os resultados indicam que as atividades ESG impactam positivamente o desempenho contábil e de mercado em empresas brasileiras. Ademais, organizações com recursos excedentes, impulsionam ações ESG e o desempenho corporativo. Os achados contribuem cientificamente ao indicar que investidores e demais partes interessadas devem analisar com maior cautela, contextos de escassez de recursos e menores índices ESG.

The selection of organizational strategies should be approached with a systemic process that interrelates the decision elements. The objective of this paper is to present an organizational decision framework that incorporates the key elements in a decision-making process to select the best strategic option, considering the interdependence among all of them. A large Colombian company in the manufacturing sector is used as a case study. The Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats and Opportunities (SWOT) and the Analytical Network Process (ANP) approaches were combined for this purpose. The network integrates SWOT, Porter's generic strategies, corporate strategies, and, as a new addition, key success factors (KSF). The results include the simultaneous ranking of the generic strategies and associated corporate strategies, as well as the ranking of the influence the key criteria clusters on the prioritized strategies.

En este trabajo, se evaluó empíricamente un modelo de desempeño en la tarea considerando como antecedentes la percepción del apoyo de la familia y de los amigos, el bienestar psicológico y el desempeño contextual. Además, se valoró la importancia-rendimiento de las variables sobre el desempeño en la tarea. Se utilizó un diseño de investigación explicativo, no probabilístico y transversal. Las técnicas estadísticas fueron un modelo PLS-SEM y un mapa importancia-rendimiento. Se encontró que las percepciones del apoyo de la familia y los amigos influyen indirectamente sobre desempeño en la tarea, a través de la mediación del bienestar psicológico y el desempeño contextual, estos impactan directamente en el desempeño en la tarea. El desempeño contextual es la variable más relevante para el desempeño en la tarea.

The objective of this work is to examine the Day-of-the-Week anomaly from the perspective of the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis for the stock market indices of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru in different subperiods and under different market conditions. The Autoregressive-Moving-Average, Generalized-Autoregressive-Conditional-Heteroskedasticity specifications, and the Kruskal-Wallis test used in the study reveal that the Day-of-the-Week effect appears and disappears in three of the indices and that its presence varies under different market conditions in all of them. This empirical evidence supports the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis.

This study seeks to identify, with the support of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), individual behavioral beliefs that determine academic dishonesty behaviors. Qualitative research was conducted with Brazilian students and revealed their perceptions on academic dishonesty behaviors. According to the results, students perceive that fraud can lead to a better academic performance and less effort or time spent on academic tasks, but it can also result in punishment and embarrassment when it’s perceived by faculty, as well as impair learning and concerns about their future professional performance. The research contributes to the construction of an instrument for collecting and measuring beliefs, which can be considered as a relevant contribution to the literature and to understanding fraudulent behaviors.

Fairness and equity considerations may influence workers’ decision to stay or quit their jobs. This paper tests several hypotheses derived from theory on the relation between intra-firm equity and employee retention. It uses administrative data covering the universe of urban firms in Colombia between 2008 and 2016. The average wage of the firm, the intra-firm dispersion of real wage adjustments, and the share of women in the firm are significantly associated with retention rates in the directions predicted by theory. The intra-firm wage gap is directly associated with retention, at odds with theory. The results suggest that equity considerations are important in employees’ decision to stay or quit.

This study examines whether Mexican consumers consider the value associated with the attributes of manufactured snacks when deciding what to eat between meals. A choice experiment involving the selection of healthy versus unhealthy snacks and beverages was performed using Qualtrics. A set of four options, each one corresponding to a combination of mid-day snack and beverage, was presented to 256 Mexican consumers, who, after making a choice, specified the importance they assigned to food choice values. Linear discriminant analysis and classification trees were used to identify what food choice values and psychographic and demographic traits explain the choices. The analytical results indicate weight control, healthiness and sustainability, and the emotional value of healthy snacks mainly drives the choices of health-conscious consumers.

This article determines the effect of moral hazard on the probability of default of the credit portfolio of small and medium-sized companies guaranteed by Colombia's National Guarantee Fund. A copula methodology with two logit models with traditional and moral Hazard financial ratios was used. The results show that the probabilities of default have the same pattern, evidencing that by incorporating the ratios of moral hazard, no significant variations are shown in the results. Thus, the moral hazard categories become an important tool not only at the calculation level of individual default probability but also in a portfolio.
