In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis to examine the moderating role of national culture on the relationship between perceptions of organizational politics and individual attitudes and behaviors.
Previous research has used an ego depletion perspective to establish a self-regulatory model linking sleep deprivation to unethical behavior via depletion (Barnes, Schaubroeck, Huth, & Ghumman, 2011; Christian & Ellis, 2011; Welsh, Ellis, Christian, & Mai, 2014). We extend this research by moving beyond depletion to examine a more nuanced, process-based view of self-control.
We develop a model to analyze the optimality of allowing firms to disclose various kinds of information prior to initial public offerings (IPOs) and seasoned equity offerings (SEOs), and of alternative rules to govern private securities litigation.
Recent studies emphasize that survey-based inflation risk measures are informative about future inflation and thus useful for monetary authorities.

We prove that in equilibrium, imposing or increasing a market-based undersupply penalty rate in a period can result in a strictly larger renewable energy commitment at all prices in the associated day-ahead market, and can lead to lower equilibrium reliability in all periods with probability 1. We also show in an extension that firms with diversified technologies result in lower equilibrium reliability than single-technology firms in all periods with probability 1.
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues continue to grow in importance, and companies are facing unprecedented internal and external criticism and pressures to address them.
A database developed by NCGrowth helps connect communities with information and inspiration.
This intellectual approach takes an unorthodox view of the nature of government taxation and expenditure, arguing (among other things) that a sovereign nation that can spend, tax and borrow in its own currency faces very different constraints than often modeled in traditional economics textbooks.
