This paper investigates the effects of attitudes towards sustainable consumption and sustainable behaviours. Income as the control variable and gender, age, assets, and educational level as moderators were included. To achieve the aims of the study, a critical literature review, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modelling were performed. Data were obtained using the CAWI technique on a sample of 1200 adult consumers. The findings show that attitudes towards sustainable consumption are positively associated with sustainable behaviours, and that income significantly determines dimensions of attitudes towards sustainable consumption and sustainable behaviours. Additionally, the relationships between income, dimensions of attitude towards sustainable consumption, and particular sustainable behaviours in groups distinguished by gender, age, property ownership, and education level were confirmed.

本文研究了对可持续消费和可持续行为的态度所产生的影响。收入作为控制变量,性别、年龄、资产和教育水平作为调节变量。为实现研究目的,本文进行了文献综述、探索性因素分析、确认性因素分析和结构方程建模。研究使用 CAWI 技术获得了 1200 个成年消费者样本的数据。研究结果表明,对可持续消费的态度与可持续行为呈正相关,收入在很大程度上决定了对可持续消费的态度和可持续行为的维度。此外,在按性别、年龄、财产所有权和教育水平划分的群体中,收入、对可持续消费的态度和特定可持续行为之间的关系也得到了证实。

Urban passenger transport is a key point in the progress of any city. It is a strategic area whose efficient and sustainable development requires the incorporation of multiple disciplines. It affects territorial, social, health, economic, and environmental policies, among others. In recent years, we have witnessed a series of changes, especially in the domains of technology and environmental issues. The interdisciplinary nature of transport together with these developments has produced fundamental and far-reaching changes in the scientific production related to this field of study which is difficult to cover in a traditional review of the literature. The aim of this work is thus to conduct a bibliometric analysis of urban passenger transport during the period 2001–2021, which illustrates the advances made during this period and stimulate new research in this field. SciMAT software was used for this purpose. The results show the conceptual evolution of urban passenger transport research, identifying seven main thematic areas: (1) health and physical activity, (2) travel, (3) transport policy, (4) air pollution, (5) congestion, (6) social exclusion, and (7) electric and autonomous vehicles.

城市客运是任何城市进步的关键点。它是一个战略领域,其高效和可持续发展需要多学科的结合。它影响到领土、社会、卫生、经济和环境政策等。近年来,我们目睹了一系列变化,尤其是在技术和环境问题领域。交通运输的跨学科性质以及这些发展给与这一研究领域相关的科学成果带来了根本性的深远变化,而这些变化是传统的文献综述所难以涵盖的。因此,这项工作的目的是对 2001-2021 年期间的城市客运进行文献计量分析,以说明这一时期所取得的进展,并促进这一领域的新研究。为此使用了 SciMAT 软件。结果显示了城市客运研究的概念演变,确定了七个主要专题领域:(1) 健康和体育活动,(2) 旅行,(3) 运输政策,(4) 空气污染,(5) 交通拥堵,(6) 社会排斥,以及 (7) 电动和自动驾驶汽车。

In the fiercely competitive landscape of the peer-to-peer accommodation platform Airbnb, understanding customers’ online recommendation behavior is essential for optimizing competitiveness and harnessing the potential of electronic word-of-mouth. This study aims to provide comprehensive insights into the factors driving customers’ issuance of positive or negative recommendations based on their experiences. Leveraging 10,101 online reviews from Airbnb users, we employ the Structural Topic Model to determine latent topics relating to customers’ recommendation intentions. This study reveals that positive recommendations are primarily influenced by hedonic values tied to the overall experience, including crucial aspects such as convenience for exploring points of interest, local authenticity, social interaction, and emotional fulfillment. These findings highlight the significance of providing memorable and enriching experiences to elicit positive reviews from customers. On the other hand, negative recommendations are closely linked to utilitarian values focused on practical concerns such as check-in procedures, cleanliness, comfortableness, and amenities. Understanding these utilitarian factors is vital for hosts and platform administrators to improve service quality and address potential issues that may lead to negative reviews. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the significant role of hosts in shaping both positive and negative recommendations. This research contributes valuable insights to the field of peer-to-peer accommodation, highlighting the significance of various factors influencing customers’ recommendation behavior.

在点对点住宿平台 Airbnb 的激烈竞争中,了解客户的在线推荐行为对于优化竞争力和利用电子口碑的潜力至关重要。本研究旨在全面深入地了解促使客户根据自身体验发出正面或负面推荐的因素。利用来自 Airbnb 用户的 10,101 条在线评论,我们采用了结构主题模型来确定与客户推荐意向相关的潜在主题。这项研究揭示了正面推荐主要受与整体体验相关的享乐价值的影响,包括探索兴趣点的便利性、当地真实性、社交互动和情感满足等重要方面。这些发现凸显了提供令人难忘和丰富的体验以获得顾客正面评价的重要性。另一方面,负面推荐与功利主义价值观密切相关,这些价值观注重实际问题,如办理入住手续、清洁度、舒适度和设施。了解这些功利因素对于房东和平台管理员提高服务质量、解决可能导致负面评论的潜在问题至关重要。此外,本研究还强调了房东在形成正面和负面推荐中的重要作用。这项研究为点对点住宿领域提供了宝贵的见解,强调了影响顾客推荐行为的各种因素的重要性。

Legitimacy is fundamental to business internationalization and access to new markets. This variable is particularly important for emerging market multinationals (EMNEs) as they face numerous obstacles, including the information that consumers in the host country have about these companies in addition to the legitimacy of the country of origin. Therefore, this study tests whether home country information and legitimacy affect the legitimacy of EMNEs and consumer purchase intentions. Specifically, this research focuses on EMNEs of Chinese origin due to their rapid growth at the international level and in the fast fashion sector because of the change in the positioning of large brands in favor of sustainability. The model is validated through an empirical study of 261 regular Shein shoppers using PLS-SEM. The academic and managerial implications of this research clarify the antecedents and consequences of the legitimacy of EMNEs and provide recommendations for the management of EMNEs and business success.

合法性是企业国际化和进入新市场的基础。这一变量对新兴市场跨国公司尤为重要,因为它们面临着诸多障碍,除了原产国的合法性之外,还包括东道国消费者对这些公司的信息。因此,本研究检验了母国信息和合法性是否会影响新兴市场跨国企业的合法性和消费者的购买意向。具体来说,本研究重点关注中国原产的新兴市场企业,因为这些企业在国际上发展迅速,而且在快速时尚领域,大型品牌的定位也发生了变化,更倾向于可持续发展。通过对 261 名经常光顾申银店的顾客进行实证研究,使用 PLS-SEM 验证了该模型。本研究的学术和管理意义阐明了新兴市场企业合法性的前因后果,并为新兴市场企业的管理和商业成功提供了建议。

This paper aims to investigate the impact of Industry 4.0 and Circular Economy on Lean Leadership and Lean Culture, providing insights into how Lean Manufacturing companies can adapt their leadership and culture styles to succeed in the new business environment. We have conducted a systematic literature review focusing on the impact of Industry 4.0 and Circular Economy on Lean Leadership and Lean Culture, and our principal findings are that Implementing Industry 4.0 and Circular Economy requires changes in Lean Leadership and Culture styles to incorporate sustainability and digital transformation. This study identified ten Lean Culture characteristics classified in three groups values and principles (culture of respect, collectivism, power distance and authority distribution), customer centric (customer orientation and performance orientation) and operational excellence (receptiveness, working conditions, problem solving culture and continuous improvement and innovation) and nineteen Lean Leadership competences grouped in three categories customer oriented (customer focus, customer and supplier development and teamworking), personal development (personal stability, personal behavior, human centric, self-developing and learning, empowerment, self-transcendence and servant leadership), Lean principles (experimental, continuous improvement and innovation, zero-defects, process and lean expertise, problem solving and genchi genbutsu) and performance driven (targets settings, targets deployment and flow) that are necessary for successful implementation of Industry 4.0 and Circular Economy in Lean Manufacturing companies.

Are consumers accepting AI-based products? What are the socio-demographics influencing the adoption of these products? This study tests the potential users’ social-demographic characteristics that influence the relationship between innovation and AI-based products. The latter are robots (e.g. chatbots) and AI (e.g. recommendation systems, amongst others). A mixed methods approach is adopted using both qualitative and quantitative analysis with non-metrical multidimensional scaling (NMDS) to map opinions about digitally-intensive products, such as robots and AI, and the attitude towards innovation. The research uses data on the general population from the Spanish innovation barometer survey (N = 3,005). Findings show that individuals who have a negative attitude towards innovation have a negative opinion about robots and AI. As regards social-demographic dimensions, age and economic conditions moderate this effect, causing a more positive opinion towards digitally-intensive products amongst young people and individuals with a higher socio-economic level. These effects are increased by the moderating role of sex.

消费者是否接受基于人工智能的产品?影响这些产品采用的社会人口统计因素是什么?这项研究测试了潜在用户的社会人口特征,这些特征影响了创新和基于人工智能的产品之间的关系。后者是机器人(例如聊天机器人)和人工智能(例如推荐系统等)。采用了一种混合方法,使用非计量多维尺度(NMDS)的定性和定量分析来映射对机器人和人工智能等数字密集型产品的看法,以及对创新的态度。这项研究使用了西班牙创新晴雨表调查(N=3005)中的普通人群数据。研究结果表明,对创新持负面态度的人对机器人和人工智能持负面看法。就社会人口维度而言,年龄和经济条件缓和了这种影响,导致年轻人和社会经济水平较高的人对数字密集型产品持更积极的看法。性别的调节作用会增加这些影响。

This study investigates board characteristics, including board leadership structure, which explain the human capital disclosure (HCD) provided by companies. It uses a self-constructed disclosure index to quantify the level of human capital information using content analysis. Generalized method of moment is employed to estimate a dynamic model of the relationship between HCD and the characteristics of boards of directors. The results show that companies are adapting to the new European Union (EU) Regulation Directive 2014/95/EU by increasing their HCD. There has been a change in the topics disclosed by companies that signal a commitment to social responsibility toward their employees and stakeholders. The level of HCD is significantly associated with board leadership structure, and independent directors play a moderating role when a chief executive officer (CEO) duality exists. Additionally, factors such as gender diversity, board size, board activity, company size and age, and the EU Directive approved in 2014 are all associated with HCD. This study enriches the debate on the role of independent directors in HCD because they can exercise a moderating role when CEO duality is present.

本研究考察了董事会特征,包括董事会领导结构,这些特征解释了公司提供的人力资本披露。它使用自行构建的披露指数,通过内容分析来量化人力资本信息的水平。采用广义矩量法估计了HCD与董事会特征之间关系的动态模型。结果表明,企业正在通过提高HCD来适应新的欧盟(EU)法规指令2014/95/EU。公司披露的主题发生了变化,这表明他们致力于对员工和利益相关者承担社会责任。HCD水平与董事会领导结构显著相关,当首席执行官(CEO)二元性存在时,独立董事发挥调节作用。此外,性别多样性、董事会规模、董事会活动、公司规模和年龄以及2014年批准的欧盟指令等因素都与HCD有关。本研究丰富了关于独立董事在HCD中作用的争论,因为当CEO双重性存在时,独立董事可以发挥调节作用。

This study enriches the debate on the role of independent directors in HCD because they can exercise a moderating role when CEO duality is present.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45796,"journal":{"name":"European Research on Management and Business Economics","volume":"29 3","pages":"Article 100224"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50204816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to analyse the determinants of sport science students’ entrepreneurial intentions considering the cultural effect on these relationships. The sample comprises 764 final-year sport science students from five European countries: Lithuania, Spain, Ukraine, Serbia, and Croatia. A validated structured questionnaire was used to collect the data. The results showed significant direct effects between attitude towards behaviour and perceived behavioural control in sport science students’ entrepreneurial intentions in all countries. Entrepreneurial skills presented an indirect impact (through attitude and perceived behavioural control) on all countries’ entrepreneurial intentions. However, the importance of each of these variables in explaining entrepreneurial intentions varied according to the students’ national culture. This study presents a series of educational policy implications to improve sports science students’ employability by developing their entrepreneurial spirit.

本研究旨在分析体育科学专业学生创业意向的决定因素,并考虑文化对这些关系的影响。样本包括来自五个欧洲国家的764名体育科学专业的大四学生:立陶宛、西班牙、乌克兰、塞尔维亚和克罗地亚。采用一份有效的结构化问卷来收集数据。结果表明,各国体育科学专业学生创业意向的行为态度与行为控制知觉之间存在显著的直接影响。创业技能对所有国家的创业意图都有间接影响(通过态度和感知的行为控制)。然而,这些变量在解释创业意图中的重要性因学生的民族文化而异。本研究提出了一系列的教育政策启示,以提高体育科学学生的就业能力,培养他们的创业精神。

The competition between legal and illegal firms in the market: Theoretical models and empirical evidence 合法和非法公司在市场上的竞争:理论模型和经验证据

The main aim of this paper is to study the phenomenon of the coexistence of firms with illegal characteristics and firms showing legal behaviour in developed economies by using an evolutionary competition model known as the Lotka-Volterra equations. Enterprises in a ‘legal system’ obey the extant laws, particularly market rules, while enterprises in an ‘illegal system’ disregard them. Illegal enterprises have a competitive advantage over legal enterprises, yet they cannot survive if legal enterprises disappear completely. The numerical solution of the Lotka-Volterra equations are used to show how there can be a situation of coexistence between legal and illegal enterprises and how state intervention can help reduce illegality in an economic system. This paper outlines a new approach to address the problem of coexistence because it uses non-linear and evolutionary tools to define the competition between legal and illegal firms. The research gap presented in this paper is addressed using the predator-prey scheme to model the competition between legal and illegal firms, which is perceived as the competition between two populations with different fitness levels (survival probabilities). This competition gives rise to three different types of possible equilibrium outcomes: survival of only legal firms, survival of only illegal firms and coexistence of these two types of firms. An empirical analysis of an Italian case study confirms the results of this paper's theoretical model.

本文的主要目的是通过使用Lotka-Volterra方程的进化竞争模型来研究发达经济体中具有非法特征的企业和具有合法行为的企业共存的现象。“法制”企业遵守现行法律,特别是市场规则,而“非法”企业则无视现行法律。非法企业比合法企业具有竞争优势,但如果合法企业完全消失,非法企业将无法生存。洛特卡-沃尔泰拉方程的数值解被用来说明合法企业和非法企业之间如何共存,以及国家干预如何有助于减少经济系统中的非法性。本文概述了一种解决共存问题的新方法,因为它使用非线性和进化的工具来定义合法和非法公司之间的竞争。本文利用捕食者-猎物方案来模拟合法和非法公司之间的竞争,将其视为具有不同适应水平(生存概率)的两个种群之间的竞争。这种竞争产生了三种不同类型的可能的均衡结果:只有合法公司才能生存,只有非法公司才能生存,以及这两种类型的公司共存。一个意大利案例的实证分析证实了本文理论模型的结果。

Board of directors and firm debt in Spanish SMEs: A power perspective 西班牙中小企业董事会与企业债务:权力视角

This manuscript examines the influence of some variables relating to boards of directors that we consider to be proxies for power (gender diversity, duality, board size and insider ownership). Their influence on firm debt is explored. The sample examined, Spanish non-financial SMEs, has some particular characteristics. Share ownership, which is usually highly concentrated in the Civil Law context, is even more concentrated when we focus on SMEs. As a consequence, there is little separation between ownership and control. We have employed a power perspective as the main theoretical framework. Data were obtained from the SABI database, and the methodology employed is a panel data, applying the System GMM technique. This methodology makes it possible to control for endogeneity and individual heterogeneity. The results show that a larger proportion of female directors, larger boards, the separation of the roles of CEO and Chairman, and more shares owned by directors and by the CEO stimulate a decrease in firm debt. This evidence supports the hypotheses tested.

本文考察了与董事会相关的一些变量的影响,我们认为这些变量是权力的代理(性别多样性、二元性、董事会规模和内部人所有权)。探讨了它们对企业债务的影响。所考察的西班牙非金融中小企业样本具有一些特殊的特点。在民法背景下通常高度集中的股权,在中小企业中更为集中。因此,所有权和控制权之间几乎没有分离。我们采用权力视角作为主要的理论框架。数据来自SABI数据库,采用面板数据方法,应用系统GMM技术。这种方法使控制内生性和个体异质性成为可能。研究结果表明,女性董事比例的增加、董事会规模的扩大、CEO与董事长角色的分离以及董事和CEO所持股份的增加均能促进公司债务的减少。这一证据支持了经过测试的假设。
