The Effect of Gender Diversity on Angel Group Investment - Becker-Blease,John; Sohl,Jeff (Entrepreneurship, Theory and Practice, 2011)
We examine the impact that gender diversity has on angel group investment behavior for a sample of 183 group-years between 2000 and 2006. Our evidence suggests that gender diversity is a significant predictor of group investment behavior, and that the proportion of women angels in the group has a negative though nonlinear effect on investment likelihood. These data are most consistent with a situational interpretation that women invest differently when they are in the small minority compared with other situations. These results have important implications for the availability of funds for women entrepreneurs and call for greater participation of women investors in the angel marketplace.

Emerging market crises and US equity market returns - Berger,Dave; Turtle,Harry J (Global Finance Journal, 2011)
We find contagion effects are present in US small size portfolios during emerging market crises due to risk and liquidity concerns. Investors display flight from risk during emerging market crises, and as a result, safer larger stocks exhibit positive abnormal returns. We find little evidence of contagion in aggregate excess US market returns, indicating studies that focus on national aggregates may miss important within market dynamics during emerging market crises. The international dynamics that we document have important implications for investors, even when they may have limited global exposure.

Empirical Evidence on the Impact of Book-Tax Differences on Divergence of Opinion Among Investors - Moore,Jared; Comprix,Joseph; Graham,Roger (Journal of the American Taxation Association, 2011)
It is well known that the objectives of financial accounting and tax accounting sometimes conflict, resulting in book-tax differences (BTDs). In this study we test for associations between measures of BTDs and measures of market participants’ uncertainty regarding the information conveyed in financial reports. The measures of market participant uncertainty are: (1) share turnover, (2) analyst forecast dispersion, and (3) stock return variance. We find positive associations between levels and variability of total BTDs and the three measures. After disaggregating BTDs into their permanent and temporary components, we find that both are positively associated with market uncertainty, although the permanent component of BTDs is generally more strongly and consistently associated with measures of uncertainty than is the temporary component. We interpret these results, in part, as indicative of the possible effect of uncertainty contained in BTDs, especially permanent BTDs, on the precision of the information conveyed in the financial statements

Financing the Entrepreneurial Decision: An Empirical Approach Using Experimental Data on US High Technology Entrepreneurs - Elston,Julie; Audretsch,David B. (Small Business Economics, 2011)
This paper empirically examines the role of risk attitudes and wealth on financing choices for successful US entrepreneurs. Our approach uses both survey data and data from economics based field experiments, which enables us control for the risk attitudes of entrepreneurs. Empirical findings suggest that lower levels of wealth increase the probability of using a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant, but lower levels of wealth also reduce the probability of using loan financing. In addition results show that higher levels of risk aversion, but not wealth, increase the probability of financing firm start-ups with earnings from a second job. Overall, findings suggest that both wealth and risk attitudes may play an important role in the financing choice of entrepreneurs.

A framework of organisations as dynamic structures - Carroll,Tim; Karim,Samina (International Journal of Strategic Change Management, 2011)
This paper integrates advances in organisational structure research into a broader framework of 'structural action' that depicts organisations as dynamic structures. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the main contributions from various theories and perspectives that have all informed our understanding of the impact of organisational structure on strategic change. We propose that organisational structures, as one mechanism by which strategy is enacted, are moulded purposefully and in different ways. To better understand how organisations are re-designed, the framework recommends particular structural actions depending on the turbulence (both internal and external) and performance (both actual and aspired) aspects of the organisation.

The Integration Substitute: The Role of Controls in Managing Human Asset Specificity - Sridharan,V.G.; Akroyd,Chris (Accounting and Finance, 2011)
As the integration solution to the problem of specific assets cannot be replicated on human asset specificity because slavery is illegal, economic theory states that control systems substitute for integration through a balanced structure to help align diverse interests. To understand the intricate design features of the balance, we examine a case-study firm. For low human asset specificity, the restriction and segregation of usable decision rights link with standards. However, incentives are traced to individuals only to the extent task deviations do not create relevant future costs that are difficult to be self-corrected. For high specificity, incentives are related to outputs rather than outcomes, because outcome variations reduce the attractiveness of maintaining the balance. Subjective assessment is used as an efficient alternate ‘balancing’ solution and decision control is shared when available subjective data are inadequate.

International diversification with frontier markets - Berger,Dave; Pukthuanthong,Kuntara; Yang,Jimmy (Journal of Financial Economics, 2011)
We provide an analysis of frontier market equities with respect to world market integration and diversification. Principal component results reveal that frontier markets exhibit low levels of integration. In contrast with developed and emerging markets, frontier markets offer no indication of increasing integration through time. Furthermore, individual frontier market countries do not exhibit consistent rates of changing integration. Structural break tests identify breakpoints in integration, as well as integration dynamics across countries. We show that frontier markets have low integration with the world market and thereby offer significant diversification benefits.

Organizational Information Technology Norms and IT Quality - Marshall,Byron; Curry,Michael; Reitsma,Reindert (Communications of the IIMA, 2011)
The effectiveness of IT governance initiatives in improving IT’s contribution to organizational success has been demonstrated but the mechanisms by which improved outcomes are realized have largely remained unexplored. Although IT governance tools such as COBIT and ITIL specify procedures and policies for the management of IT resources, the experts who developed those tools also embedded a set of core principles or ‘norms’ in the underlying frameworks. This article explores these norms and their role in the realization of organizational IT quality. Through analysis of normative messages implicitly expressed in the documentation elements provided by COBIT, we extract two norms (commitment to improvement and a risk/control perspective) thought to indicate that an organization has adopted the spirit of IT governance. Next, we model the relationship between adoption of these norms and IT quality and evaluate the model with data from a survey of 86 individuals who use, manage, and/or deliver organizational IT services. Principal component analysis is used to validate the survey items. Results show statistically significant relationships between norm adoption, participation in norm-driven activities, and organizational IT quality.

Private Debt, Unused Credit Lines, and Seasoned Equity Offerings - Liu,Yang; Yang,Jimmy (Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance, 2011)
We study a sample of SEOs to examine the impact of private debt and unused credit lines on SEO underpricing and long-run stock and operating performance. We do not find significant effects of private debt financing on SEO underpricing and long-run stock underperformance. However, firms with more bank debt and unused lines of credit exhibit significantly better pre-issue operating performance. Changes in operating performance from the pre-issue year to the post-issue period are negatively related to the size of unused credit lines. Capital spending decreases with the size of unused credit lines in the year prior to SEOs, but increases following SEOs. Our overall evidence suggests that the post-issue operating performance we observed may be a result of overinvestment, which is enhanced by unused credit lines.

The Roles of Management Control in a Product Development Setting - Akroyd,Chris; Maguire,W. (Qualitative Research in Accounting and Management, 2011)
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the ways in which management control is enacted in a product development setting, to provide new insights into the different roles that control can play in this context. Design/methodology/approach – A nine-month, in-depth field study was carried out at a subsidiary of an Australasian multinational firm which operates in the consumer foods industry. A participant observation approach was used to collect field notes and documents from the organisation, which were analysed through the lens of ethnomethodology. Findings – The results indicate that the role of management control during product development is mainly focused on reducing uncertainty at each stage and promoting goal congruence at the decision gates. The authors argue that this helps explain why management control has a positive effect in a product development setting. Research limitations/implications – The implication of this finding is that the role of management control changes during product development due to the involvement of different organisational members (communities of practice) and the activities that they carry out. This helps build a more holistic understanding of control in product development. As this is a field study of a specific company, the findings are not generalizable to other companies or settings. Future research needs to investigate other possible roles which management control may play in this context. Originality/value – The paper extends the research in this area by showing how and why management control can take on multiple roles in practice.

Testing the CAPM across observed and fundamental returns - Berger,Dave (Applied Financial Economics, 2011)
The CAPM describes a relationship between risk and expected forward-looking returns. Existing research tests the model using realized returns as the proxy for ex-ante expectations. However, recent studies cast doubt on the ability of ex-post observed returns to proxy for ex-ante expectations. Using an alternative specification to proxy for investor expectations, I test the CAPM in the context of pricing size and book/market equities. The results indicate that the CAPM retains additional merit with an improved measure of expectations. However, the value premium appears large and significant across both specifications of expected returns.

When do strategic alliances inhibit innovation by firms? Evidence from patent pools in the global optical disc industry - Joshi,Amol; Nerkar,Atul (Strategic Management Journal, 2011)
Research and development (R&D) consortia are specialized strategic alliances that shape the direction and scope of firm innovation activities. Little research exists on the performance consequences of participating in R&D consortia. We study the effect of patent pools, a unique form of R&D consortia, on firm performance in innovation. While prior research on alliances generally implies that patent pools enhance firm innovation, our study finds the opposite. Analyzing data on systemic innovation in the global optical disc industry, we find that patent pool formation substantially and significantly decreases both the quantity and quality of patents subsequently generated by licensors and licensees relative to the patenting activity of nonparticipants. Our empirical findings suggest that patent pools actually inhibit, rather than enhance, systemic innovation by participating firms.

Why Privacy Discussions about Pervasive Online Customer Profiling Should Focus on Expanding Roles of Third-Parties - King,Nancy (International Journal of Private Law, 2011)
Abstract: Network advertising associations, consumer databases, data mining services and advertising exchanges play important roles in the online behavioural advertising industry. The participation of such third-party businesses in consumer profiling and generating targeted direct marketing communications raises significant consumer privacy and data protection concerns. This article analyzes the regulatory framework s of the European Union and the United States and legal developments on this topic to assess how well consumers’ privacy concerns are being addressed. It then provides recommendations for regulatory reform specific to third-party involvement in the behavioural advertising industry to enhance consumers’ privacy and data protection.

Wind Power Energy Technology and Environmental Impact Assessment - Hapke,Hannes; Wu,Zhaohui; Haapala,Karl; Brekken,Ted (2011)
Power generation for the existing electrical grid is largely based on the combustion of fossil fuels. Global concerns have been raised regarding the environmental sustainability of the system due to life cycle impacts, including land losses from fuel extraction and impacts of combustion emissions. An approach to reduce carbon emissions of fossil fuel-based energy employs the conversion of wind energy to electrical energy. The work presented describes modern wind power plants and provides an environmental assessment of a representative wind park from a life cycle perspective. The empirical analysis uses commercially available data, as well as information from an existing wind power plant. The life cycle assessment (LCA) study for a modern wind farm in the northwestern U.S. found that environmental benefits of avoiding typical electricity production greatly outweigh the impacts due to wind turbine construction and maintenance. Effects of component reliability, varying capacity factors, and energy portfolio are explored.

World vs. Method: Educational Standard Formulation Impacts Document Retrieval - Marshall,Byron; Reitsma,Reindert (Proceedings of the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL'11),Ottawa, Canada., 2011)
Although initiatives are underway in the educational community to consolidate disparate collections of educational standards, little has been done to explore the impact of educational standard formulation on information retrieval. Recent research contrasts two categories of educational standards: ‘World’ (topical domain-related concepts) and ‘Method’ (investigative and epistemological principles). This paper explores the information retrieval implications of the World vs. Method distinction. We find that experts are more likely to agree about which educational resources align with a Method standard but that a typical automatic standard assignment tool is more likely to assign a World standard to an educational resource. Further, a text-based information retrieval system is more likely to be accurate in retrieving documents relevant to a World standard as compared to a Method standard. These findings have implications both for educational standard formulation (combining World and Method components in a standard may improve retrieval) and for digital library builders who want to help teachers identify useful, standards-aligned learning objects.

Accounting Doctoral Program Demographics - Baldwin,Amelia A; Brown,Carol; Trinkle,Brad S (Advances in Accounting Education: Teaching and Curriculum Innovations, 2010)
Accounting doctoral programs are often evaluated and ranked based on various measures of publishing productivity, both of graduates and of faculty. While publishing is very important in academia, the choice to attend a PhD program is complex. In addition, the variables that can give insight into a PhD program and its graduates are far more diverse than simply the research productivity of a program's faculty and graduates. The purpose of this investigation is to describe and analyze U.S. doctoral accounting programs using a variety of demographic data about the programs and their most recent graduates. This includes addressing these broad research questions: What are the demographic characteristics of the graduates of each program, including gender, and minority status? What are the demographics descriptors of these graduates' current employment situations?

Are French Fries and Grades Bad for You? Conflicting Evidence on how K-12 Teachers Search in a K-12 Engineering Digital Library - Reitsma,Reindert; Klenk,P.; Zarske,M.; Sullivan,J. (Am. Soc. of Engr. Education (ASEE) Annual Conf. 2010, 2010)
The TeachEngineering digital library provides teacher-tested, standards-based engineering content for K-12 teachers to use in science and math classrooms. Since its release in 2005, it has demonstrated significant growth in users and in contributors; data on this growth is presented. The TeachEngineering team continues to research its search functions and user interface in order to ensure that it is meeting the needs of its intended users, K-12 teachers. Empirical evidence of an experimental study on the dimensions of alignment between digital K-12 lesson materials and education standards, however, contradicts that of the observed search behavior of patrons of TeachEngineering. Whereas the experiment convincingly shows that grade band information does not add to the teaching materials’ relevance for an educational standard, observed patrons’ searching patterns show ample evidence of grade band-based searches. In this paper we offer that although grade band-based searches should perhaps be avoided because they improperly bias search results, they are such a prominent feature in the actual use of the digital library that as designers we must support them while mitigating the risk of unfortunate search bias. As a possible solution we suggest supporting grade-based searches yet offering query expansion by widening the grade band. These results also imply that curriculum developers pay close attention to the assignment of grade bands to their lessons and activities.

Aspects of 'Relevance' in the Alignment of Curriculum with Educational Standards - Reitsma,Reindert; Marshall,Byron; Zarske,Malinda (Information Processing & Management, 2010)
Retrieval of useful digitized learning objects is a key objective for educational digital libraries, but imprecise definitions of alignment hinder the development of effective retrieval mechanisms. With over 63,000 U.S. K-12 science and mathematics education standards and a rapid proliferation of Web-enabled curriculum, retrieving curriculum that aligns with the standards to which teachers must teach is increasingly important. Previous studies of such alignment use single-dimensional and binary measures of relevance. Perhaps as a consequence they suffer from low inter-rater reliability (IRR), with experts agreeing about alignments only some 20-40% of the time. We present the results of an experiment in which the dependent variable ‘alignment’ is operationalized using the Saracevic model of relevance in which; i.e., alignment is defined and measured through ‘clues’ from the everyday practice of K-12 teaching. Results show higher inter-rater reliability on all clues with significantly higher IRR on several specific alignment dimensions. In addition, a (linear) model of ‘overall alignment’ is derived and estimated. Both the structure and explanatory power of the model differ significantly between searching vs. assessment. These results illustrate the usefulness of clue-based relevance measures for information retrieval and have important consequences for both the formulation of automated retrieval mechanisms and the construction of a gold standard set of standard-curriculum alignments.

Challenges of Quantitative Research on Internal Corporate Venturing - Garrett,Robert (International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing, 2010)
Internal corporate ventures are entrepreneurial initiatives that originate within the corporate structure (or within an existing business of the corporation) and are intended from inception as new businesses for the corporation. In spite of the long history associated with the phenomenon of internal corporate venturing, the literature provides surprisingly little quantitative evidence regarding factors important to internal corporate venturing success. Most of the literature is anecdotal, while the few empirical studies that do exist suffer from methodological problems that introduce contamination into their findings. The current paper outlines those methodological problems and proposes techniques for minimizing their effects.

Contextual Influences: Building Brand Community in Large and Small Colleges - McAlexander,Jim; Koenig,Hal (Journal of Marketing for Higher Education, 2010)
This research extends recent efforts that have introduced and empirically tested a conceptual model of brand community in the context of higher education. This emerging literature has indicated that brand community provides a framework that can inform and guide marketing investments in ways that lead to affinity and stronger loyalty to the brand and institution. This paper presents the results of a national survey that examines the potential impact that institutional size may have on the relationships of an alumni brand community. This paper also explores the implications of the size of the educational institution on relevant and desired marketing outcomes that include the willingness to recommend the university to friends and family and a desire to purchase licensed apparel

Creating Integrated Business and Environmental Value within the Context of China's Circular Economy and Ecological Modernization - Park,J; Sarkis,J; Wu,Zhaohui (Journal of Cleaner Production, 2010)
This paper investigates the challenges and opportunities of how firms and organizations can and will be able to strike a better balance between economic growth and environmental stewardship in the context of China’s emerging ‘circular economy’ policy paradigm and based on ecological modernization theoretic approaches. Based on three company case studies in the information technology and electronic industries in China, we identify and demonstrate how a blended business and environmental value can be created from adopting a sustainable supply chain management approach. The adoption of a sustainable supply chain management approach is rapidly becoming a key business challenge and opportunity in China and other large emerging economies around the world, where our greatest environmental management challenges currently reside and will continue to exist for many years to come. The value creation framework proposed in research focuses on evaluating three case study companies who appear in various stages of an electronic industry supply chain. Value creation within a supply chain can provide the impetus for organizations to adopt circular economy, sustainable supply chain practices, for competitive reasons. In addition, we describe how a value proposition can be evaluated at two levels of analysis, a more specific micro-level and a more general meso-level of analysis. The four major business value dimensions include cost reduction, revenue generation, resiliency, and legitimacy and image. The initial findings are that a variety of opportunities exist for electronic firms in emerging and developing countries, while results from this study provide an important scholarly foundation to develop and refine sustainable supply chain management practices in emerging and developing economies.

Does Employee Ownership Increase Innovation? - Garrett,Robert (New England Journal of Entrepreneurship, 2010)
One way that firms attempt to innovate is through investment in R&D activity. However, there is much heterogeneity in innovations among firms making comparable R&D investments. This paper explores employee ownership’s moderating effect on the relationship between R&D intensity and innovative output. The basis for the moderation is that ownership increases motivation and commitment to the innovation agenda of the company, and retains employees’ entrepreneurial efforts for internal opportunities. Using hierarchical regression, the data support the hypothesis that employee stock ownership positively moderates the relationship between R&D intensity and innovative output. Implications for future research and practice are addressed.

Does Inclusion in a Smaller S&P Index Create Value? - Becker-Blease,John; Paul,Donna (Financial Review, 2010)
This study finds overall increases in equity value surrounding addition to the S&P SmallCap and MidCap indexes from 1996 to 2003 and investigates sources of the value gains. Following addition, there are significant increases in proxy variables for stock liquidity and investor recognition, and changes in these variables are impounded into the permanent component of announcement share price revisions. We also find that changes in capital investment intensity are increasing in changes in stock liquidity, consistent with a reduction in the cost of capital following index addition.

Does Using CobiT Improve IT Solution Proposals? - Marshall,Byron; Curry,Michael; Reitsma,Reindert (AAA Annual Meeting, IS Section, 2010)
The CobiT (Control Objectives for Information and related Technology) framework is designed to help organizations implement IT governance practices by systematically shaping identifiable IT processes to better leverage IT expenditures. The control structure advocated in CobiT embodies governance notions including business alignment, a risk/control perspective, systematic measurement, accountability, and continuous improvement. Despite the rise of internal control regulation, not all organizations have implemented systematic IT controls and many, notably small, organizations may never do so. This study explores whether exposing decision makers to CobiT positively affects the IT solutions they generate. We present a framework (drawn primarily from the structure of CobiT) for identifying normatively better IT plans as measured by application of governance principles. We report on 115 IT solution proposals created by business students. The proposals developed using CobiT more frequently took a risk/control approach, addressed the need for continuous improvement, referred to general IT processes, identified the people who should implement a solution, and proposed more measures of success. Thus, exposing decision makers to a systematic IT governance framework promises to help them generate more comprehensive solutions to IT challenges.

Employees, Firm Size, and Profitability in U.S. Manufacturing Industries - Becker-Blease,John; Kaen,Fred; Etebari,Ahmad; Baumann,Hans (Investment Management and Financial Innovations, 2010)
This study examines the relation between firm size and profitability within 109 SIC four-digit manufacturing industries.  Depending on our measure of profitability, we find that profitability increases at a decreasing rate and eventually declines in up to 47 of our industries.   No relation between profitability and size is found in up to 52 of our industries.  These two categories account for 97 of our 109 industries.  Profitability continues to increase as firms become larger in up to 11 industries.   Hence, the relation between size and profitability is industry specific.  But, regardless of the shape of the size profitability function, we find that profitability is negatively correlated with the number of employees for firms of a given size measured in terms of total assets and sales.

Exploring Supply Managers' Intrapreneurial Ability and Relationship Quality. - Steward,Michelle; Wu,Zhaohui; Hartley,Janet (Journal of Business-to-Business Marketing, 2010)
This article examined the degree to which a supply manager's intrapreneurial ability influences the quality of individual-level relationships with internal customers and the supplier's account executive. The moderating influence of the buyer's firm-level commitment to the supplier and how these relationships subsequently impact supplier performance were explored. The study assessed the supply manager's intrapreneurial ability using survey data gathered from 110 supply managers across a variety of industries. In key supplier relationships, a supply manager's intrapreneurial ability positively influences the quality of internal and external relationships. The firm's commitment to the supplier weakens the relationship between intrapreneurial ability and relationship quality. The findings highlight the value of individual skills to enhance relationships The ability to behave intrapreneurially shapes the quality of internal and supplier relationships. However, only the supply manager's relationship with the supplier's account executive is related to supplier performance. By examining the impact of intrapreneurial ability on individual-level relationships with internal customers and supplier's account executive, a more comprehensive view of business-to-business relationship management in the supply chain is gained.

Exploring the Relationships Among Involvement, Psychological Commitment, and Behavioral Loyalty in a Sport Spectator Context - Bee,Colleen; Havitz,Mark E. (International Journal of Sports Marketing and Sponsorship, 2010)
Consumer loyalty has long been recognized as a key consideration of marketing strategies focused on customer retention. While the importance of the loyalty construct is widely recognized, the conditions and variables that foster consumer loyalty for a specific service may vary. This paper explores the variables that influence fan attendance at a professional sporting event. It extends prior research by conceptualizing both a behavioral and an attitudinal component of loyalty, as well as considering fan involvement with the sport and attraction to the sport. The findings suggest that psychological commitment and resistance to change mediate the effect of fan attraction and involvement on behavioral loyalty in a professional sport context.
