description: Occupation-centered lifestyle interventions improve health and delay age-related declines in older adults; however, little is known about the impact of a brief telehealth lifestyle program delivered individually. This pilot investigated the Holistic Occupational Performance Empowerment (HOPE) program on occupational performance and health-related quality of life. Twelve community-dwelling older adults completed six weekly lifestyle sessions to enhance behavior change toward individualized health goals. Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) and the Short Form 20-Item Survey (SF-20) were administered preintervention and postintervention to measure program outcomes. Among 36 health-related goals, 69.4% achieved or exceeded the expected level of attainment. A paired samples t-test revealed statistically higher posttest GAS scores compared with pretest scores, indicating significant improvements in occupational performance. SF-20 mental health scores increased postintervention, although not significantly. Preliminary findings suggest that HOPE could positively impact occupational performance in community-dwelling older adults warranting a future large-scale randomized controlled trial.

description: This dissertation focuses on advancing two general areas in liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) where specific studies have an emphasis on systems relevant to the nuclear industry, namely the Plutonium Uranium Redox Extraction (PUREX) process. The first is the macroscale mathematical modeling used for the analysis of experimental LLE data. One of the challenges associated with this area is that the models often conflate the interfacial intrinsic kinetics and mass transfer effects into lumped parameters. This makes comparisons across studies difficult because the mass transfer effects will vary depending on the experimental apparatus used by each investigator. In an endeavor to overcome this challenge, an alternative approach is taken where the interfacial chemical kinetics and mass transfer coefficients are maintained as separate parameters throughout the model development. While this yields a more complex mathematical model it allows for the direct determination of the interfacial chemical kinetics free from mass transfer effects. Direct comparisons between experimental studies can then be made through the interfacial chemical kinetics since they should remain constant across studies of the same extraction. This approach is applied to the specific case of the extraction of HNO3 by the surfactant tributyl phosphate (TBP). The second area is focused on studies investigating interfaces of systems relevant to the PUREX process using vibrational sum frequency generation (vSFG) spectroscopy. Direct experimental information at the liquid-liquid interface is eventually required to advance many areas of LLE because inferences based on bulk phase information is limiting. In recent years vSFG has proved to be a very powerful surface selective technique that can obtain molecular level information of hydrophobic-aqueous interfaces. This work focuses on utilizing vSFG spectroscopy to probe the partitioning of the surfactant dibutyl phosphate (DBP) to air-aqueous interfaces as changes are made to the bulk aqueous phase. The first section focuses on establishing fundamental qualitative relationships for the partitioning of DBP relative to bulk aqueous phase concentrations of HDBP, HNO3, and cation ratios of H+:Na+. The second section focuses on establishing fundamental qualitative relationships for the partitioning of DBP in relation to specific ion effects. Specifically, the Hofmeister cations Cs+, Na+, Li+, and Mg2+ were investigated. These studies are some of the first in-depth investigations of DBP at hydrophobic-aqueous interfaces using vSFG, providing a foundation for future more complex studies of air-liquid or liquid-liquid interfaces involving heavy metals.

description: Introduction: The respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has undergone genetic evolution and led to variants of concern that vary in transmissibility and clinical severity. Methods: This retrospective cohort analysis studied 232,364 hospitalized COVID-19-positive patients in the National COVID Cohort Collaborative [April 27, 2020 and June 25, 2022]. The primary outcomes were to compare demographics and need for mechanical ventilation and 30-day mortality across variants including Alpha (B.1.1.7), Delta (B.1.617.2), and Omicron (B.1.1.529). Results: The severity of SARS-CoV-2 decreased in the omicron-subsequent wave with decreased utilization of mechanical ventilation and decreased 30-day mortality among patients with comorbidities like diabetes mellitus, obesity, and liver disease. Although with each subsequent wave, the sex distribution remained equal and constant, there was an increase in rates of diabetes, liver disease, and respiratory disease amongst patients hospitalized with COVID-19 over the COVID waves despite the decreasing 30-day mortality and mechanical ventilation. Conclusions: Despite changes in demographics over time, more recent COVID waves were associated with decreasing severity and mortality. These observations will help guide specific and effective resource allocation and patient care.
Carbon and Boron Nitride Nanotube Fabricated Supercapacitors

Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: The fabrication of supercapacitor devices consisting of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has great theoretical capabilities of high specific capacitance, energy density, and power density. Various methods of dispersion and deposition are utilized to optimize such supercapacitors with BNNTs and CNTs, and also to produce devices with only CNTs to use as a benchmark. In addition to capacitance measurements, BNNTs that were exposed to nitric acid were compared to fabricated devices without acid exposure.

Dispersion has been accomplished through the trial of many solvents and surfactants for both CNTs and BNNTs. Deposition techniques that are utilized rely heavily on vacuum filtration and spray deposition techniques. The resultants of fabrication have been tested with capacitance voltage measurements and transmission electron microscopic images are used to analyze solutions.

The highest specific capacitance was found in a fabricated device without including BNNTs, as a device fabricated from CNTs as the electrode, a polymer electrolyte, a dielectric separator of nafion, and foil contacts, had a specific capacitance of 0.51 mF/g. This device also had 0.13 Wh/kg for energy density, and 3.02 kW/kg for power density. However, despite this measurement of highest specific capacitance achieved without using BNNTs, a device made of only CNTs, BNNTs, foil contacts, and electrolyte, had the highest energy density of 0.15 Wh/kg and power density of 4.29 kW/kg. This device also had one of the highest measured specific capacitances of 0.27 mF/g.

The CNTs and BNNTs were chosen to be used together because of costs and availability and their ideal structures for use as an electrode and a separator, respectively. Both materials have lattice structures that can be rolled into tubes to create bonds and also strengthen the material between walls. The porous structures also allow an electrolyte to seep into the pores to promote charge separation. Carbon is an ideal electrode and boron nitride has high dielectric properties suited for a capacitor separator.

The devices showed consistent capacitance characteristics with higher power density than energy density. The techniques used for fabrication, measurement, and further optimization are mentioned throughout this paper. Cleaning BNNTs in nitric acid proved to promote better physical and electrical properties for the resultant solutions and devices.

description: The dissertation herein investigates the Ethanol Steam Reforming (ESR) for syngas production (hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO)) for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) applications. H2 gas is a promising renewable energy carrier. The H2 production from bioethanol through the ESR reaction is the effective route to achieve the hydrogen economy from an economic and environmental viewpoint. The SOFC is a promising technology for electricity generation due to its high efficiency and low emissions. The main objective is to develop an ethanol-fed intermediate temperature SOFC with a high-performance fuel reforming catalyst for an electric vehicle. The rhodium supported on cerium-zirconium oxide (Rh/CZ) catalyst and nickel-molybdenum supported on cerium-zirconium-yttrium oxide (NiMo/CZY) catalyst with high resistance of coke formation were synthesized and applied as an internal micro-reforming catalytic active layer over the Ni-YSZ anode of button-type SOFC. The inner micro-reforming catalytic active layer improves the electrochemical performance and stability of the button-typed SOFC by improving the ESR reaction performances. Various synthesis techniques of heterogeneous catalysts were utilized to reduce the metallic particle size and enhance the coke formation resistance for the ESR reaction under the SOFC operating conditions.
description: Chapter 1 reports the motivation and the main objectives, whereas chapter 2 covers the previous attempts and big challenges to synthesizing catalytic materials with high coke resistance for the ESR reaction. Chapter 3 investigated the influence of the internal micro-reforming Rh/CZ catalytic active layer on the SOFC’s electrochemical performance. Chapter 4 investigates the moisture effects on the CO oxidation reaction over highly dispersed atomically and nanocluster Rh catalysts and correlates their catalytic activities to their oxidation state (Rh+δ) and Rh size. Chapter 5 illuminates the crucial role of mesoporous morphology on coke formation for the ESR reaction. Chapter 6 elucidates the effect of oxygen storage capacity on coke formation by inserting Y3+ cation into the lattice structure of CZ support. The enhancement of the surface area of the perovskite catalyst by the polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) templating method was covered in chapter 7.

Creators: name: Gil-Moreno, Luvianca G.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: Continuous quality improvement tools have been widely used in the Healthcare Industry to increase efficiency and patient safety as well as to reduce cost. This research explores the impact of a Lean Six Sigma (LSS) process improvement initiative on the overall process efficiency and patient safety in the Labor and Delivery (L+D) units of a large hospital provider. This study focuses on the application of a modeling and simulation methodology to investigate the influence of a localized process improvement intervention on the overall L+D unit output by considering patient flow, system capacity, and unit performance. The simulation models capacity profiles and patient flow through the system to determine patient throughput and waiting times. Baseline data was obtained from information systems logs from two Sentara Healthcare. Finally, the simulation analysis provides evidence to support decision making regarding process improvement implementation across the evaluated scenarios; the results evidence a significant time reduction, not only in the registration process but also in the “Time to Arrive to the Physician.”

description: Background: When coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mitigation efforts waned, viral respiratory infections (VRIs) surged, potentially increasing the risk of postviral invasive bacterial infections (IBIs). We sought to evaluate the change in epidemiology and relationships between specific VRIs and IBIs [complicated pneumonia, complicated sinusitis and invasive group A streptococcus (iGAS)] over time using the National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C) dataset. Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of all prospectively collected pediatric (<19 years old) and adult encounters at 58 N3C institutions, stratified by era: pre-pandemic (January 1, 2018, to February 28, 2020) versus pandemic (March 1, 2020, to June 1, 2023). We compared the characteristics and outcomes of patients with prespecified VRIs and IBIs, including correlation between VRI cases and subsequent IBI cases. Results: We identified 965,777 pediatric and 9,336,737 adult hospitalizations. Compared with pre-pandemic, pandemic-era children demonstrated higher mean monthly cases of adenovirus (121 vs. 79.1), iGAS (5.8 vs. 3.3), complicated pneumonia (282 vs. 178) and complicated sinusitis (29.8 vs. 16.3), P < 0.005 for all. Among pandemic-era children, peak correlation between RSV cases and subsequent complicated sinusitis cases occurred with a 60-day lag (correlation coefficient 0.56, 95% confidence interval: 0.52–0.59, P < 0.001) while peak correlation between influenza and complicated sinusitis occurred with a 33-day lag (0.55, 0.51–0.58, P < 0.001). Correlation among other VRI–IBI pairs was modest during the pandemic and often lower than during the pre-pandemic era. Conclusions: Since COVID-19 emerged, mean monthly cases of iGAS, complicatedpneumonia,andcomplicatedsinusitishavebeenhigher.Pandemic-era RSV and influenza cases were correlated with subsequent cases of complicated sinusitis in children. However, many other VRI–IBI correlations decreased during the pandemic.

description:
Mental health concerns among doctorate (PhD) nursing students may impact program retention, especially among underrepresented racial-/ethnic-minoritized (UREM) students. Understanding mental health concerns among UREM PhD students is necessary to develop retention strategies. We conducted a qualitative secondary data analysis of a descriptive study with focus groups and individual semi-structured interviews. Participants identified as actively enrolled UREM in PhD nursing programs. Conventional content analysis was utilized. Mental health informed retention through the following themes: PhD program pressure and expectations, help-seeking barriers, personal motivations to succeed, and it takes a village: fostering peer support. Implications for nursing faculty are discussed.
The Effect of Fasted vs Fed High-Intensity Interval Exercise on Metabolism and Diet
Creators: name: Perez, William Joseph
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate immediate and delayed metabolic and dietary responses to a single bout of cycling high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) performed in the fasted and fed state. Baseline values of 11 subjects (6 female, 5 male) for resting energy expenditure (REE), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), resting VO2, VO2max and appetite score (VAS) were measured on the first visit. Energy balance (EB) was determined using diet tracking and activity energy expenditure (paEE). Trials followed a day at net energy balance and began in a fasted state. A 240-kcal energy bar was consumed prior to (FED) or after (FST) a high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) bout. Post-exercise VO2 was recorded for one hour (60 of 70 minutes) immediately following HIIE. Metabolic variables were measured before and 12 hours after exercise. Energy intake was not different between conditions the day before trials (mean ± SD: 2060 ± 613 kcal FED, 2154 ± 666 kcal FST) or the 12 hours after exercise (1695 ± 484 kcal FED, 1892 ± 822 kcal FST). Post-exercise VAS was greater than 12 hours later (p < 0.01). Post-exercise EE (97.0 ± 15.2 kcal.hr-1 FED, 89.9 ± 17.2 kcal.hr-1 FST) was elevated from pre-exercise (70.8 ± 10.7 kcal.hr-1 FED; p < 0.01, 67.9 ± 10.2 kcal.hr-1 FST; p = 0.01). Post-exercise VO2 (272.2 ± 25.8 mL.hr-1.kg-1 FED, 254.2 ± 33.5 mL.hr-1.kg-1 FST) was elevated from pre-exercise (203.4 ± 25.4 mL.hr-1.kg-1 FED; p < 0.01, 195.6 ± 12.5 mL.hr-1.kg-1 FST; p < 0.01). Excess EE (26.2 ± 10.6 kcal FED, 22.0 ± 11.8 kcal FST) and EPOC (68.8 ± 28.6 mL.kg-1 FED, 58.6 ± 32.5 mL.kg-1 FST) over 60 minutes did not differ between conditions. Appetite was blunted in the hours following HIIE supporting the transient effect of exercise on appetite. Excess EE and EPOC did occur in the hour following exercise. However, whether a 240-kcal meal replacement bar was consumed immediately before or shortly after morning HIIE did not significantly impact resulting EPOC, RER, EI or appetite.

Publisher: name: Taylor and Francis Ltd
Year: 2016

description:
The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the influence of dosage, type (active, receptive, or combined), and format (individual or group) of music therapy for individuals with schizophrenia. With the terms “music*” and “schizophreni*,” six research databases were searched: CINAHL, EMBASE, Music Index, PsycInfo, Pubmed, and RILM. The search was limited to studies written in English, peer-reviewed, and published between 1991 and 2015. Seventeen articles met the stated criteria. Dosage of music therapy ranged from 20 to 9,720 minutes. Three types of music therapy were delivered: active, receptive, or combined, and therapy was implemented via individual or group format. Depending on the dosage, type, and format, music therapy improved psychotic symptom management, depression and anxiety management, social and cognitive functioning, behavior, and quality of life of the participants. Dosage had a greater impact on the effects of music therapy compared to type and format. Studies that implemented a combination of active and receptive music therapy were more likely to produce significant improvements in outcomes compared to the studies that implemented the other types of music therapy. However, studies using combined type provided higher dosage of the intervention (e.g., more minutes of intervention exposure). This systematic review can be used to guide future research on and clinical applications for music therapy in this population. Future studies might also investigate the interaction of demographic characteristics or severity of illness with dosage and type on effects of music therapy.

description: Die Diplomarbeit behandelt anhand eines konkreten Projekts eine noch relativ neue Form städtischer Freiräume: Gemeinschaftsgärten. Sie werden charakterisiert als kollektiv genutzte Anlagen in städtischem Umfeld, die Platz für gemeinsame Gartenarbeit und gemeinsames Verweilen sein sollen. In den 1970er Jahren entstanden in New York die ersten Community Gardens, indem BewohnerInnen benachteiligter Stadtteile brachliegende Grundstücke von Müll befreiten und begrünten. Die Idee fand viele Nachahmer und verbreitete sich weltweit. Je nach Ausgangslage entstanden und entstehen verschiedene Gemeinschaftsgarten-Projekte, von denen charakteristische Formen (Community Gardens, City Farmen und Interkulturelle Gärten) vorgestellt werden. Der wissenschaftliche Diskurs zur Thematik gestaltet sich vielseitig und interdisziplinär. Anhand einer Untersuchung von Texten, deren AutorInnen sich sowohl theoretisch als auch praktisch mit Gemeinschaftsgärten beschäftigen, wird Einblick gegeben in das Diskursfeld zwischen Forschung und angewandter Wissenschaft. Im Zentrum der Arbeit steht Wiens in dieser Form erster Gemeinschaftsgarten: der 'Nachbarschaftsgarten Heigerlein'. Mit der Untersuchung des Projekts soll gezeigt werden, wie spezifische Entstehungsbedingungen und Intentionen zu dem schließlich realisierten Nachbarschaftsgarten führten. Anhand einer ethnographischen Beschreibung des Raumes, mittels einer Kombination aus Beobachtung und Gesprächen mit NutzerInnen des Gartens, wird dem Alltag in der gemeinsam genutzten Anlage nachgespürt. Aspekte der Raumaneignung fließen dabei ebenso in die Untersuchung mit ein, wie Fragen nach Abgrenzung, Kommunikation und sozialer Interaktion, sowohl innerhalb des Gartenzaunes als auch darüber hinaus. Um die wechselseitige Wirkung von räumlichen Strukturen des Nachbarschaftsgartens und dem Handeln der hier Agierenden zu verdeutlichen, werden schließlich die Ergebnisse der Feldforschung mit raumtheoretischen Überlegungen verknüpft.

description: Catalysts are exposed to non-equilibrium chemical environments that cause surface composition and structural heterogeneity. This dissertation investigates the metal-support interactions that drive the behavior of precious metal single-site catalysts on a transient Cu-based support between fully oxidized Cu2O and fully reduced Cu by characterizing the chemistry and structures of the surface species on the "29" oxide model. The "29" oxide model is an epitaxially grown CuxO film on Cu(111), providing a well-defined, Cu2O(111)-like surface for single-atom support. It is demonstrated that the factors which determine the stability and chemistry of the surface species on the "29" oxide are distinct from atomically dispersed metals supported on bulk oxide and Cu surfaces. Three important aspects were studied via Density Functional Theory: (1) the active sites for CO oxidation, (2) the role of the oxide layer toward the stabilization of single atoms, and (3) the sensitivity of the activity of precious metal single-atoms toward its local coordinate environments. We validated our model studies with surface science experiments provided by the Sykes group.
description: Our results indicate that a higher heterogeneity and mobility of Rh surface species on the "29" oxide led to a higher reaction complexity with CO in comparison to that with Pt species. The migration of single atoms is driven by their ability to form and break bonds with the oxide overlayer. The effect of the oxide overlayer on single atom segregation on Cu(111) is twofold, depending on the initial position of the single atom. Overall, the factors which drive atom stability on thin oxides contrast with those on bulk oxides. The reactivity of single-site Pt was investigated in the setting of a Cu2O(111) environment to further understand the sensitivity of its activity on copper oxide structures. Atomic changes within its environment can drastically change the significance of Pt toward increasing CO oxidation activity. This work serves as a baseline to further develop models that will reflect the metal-support interactions of atoms supported on Cu-based structures within the oxidation state gap between Cu2O and Cu, important for the rational design of single-site catalysts.

description:
The purpose of this study was to describe cultural factors influencing African American mothers’ perceptions about infant feeding. Analysis of six focus group discussions of diverse African American mothers yielded sociohistorical factors that are rarely explored in the breastfeeding literature. These factors are events, experiences, and other phenomena that have been culturally, socially, and generationally passed down and integrated into families, potentially influencing breastfeeding beliefs and behaviors. The results from this study illuminate fascinating aspects of African American history and the complex context that frames some African American women’s choice about breastfeeding versus artificial supplementation feeding. This study also demonstrates the need for developing family centered and culturally relevant strategies to increase the African American breastfeeding rate.

The present essay presents the factors that influenced the author’s development of the Superwoman Schema framework, and how she combined womanist, intersectional, and other culturally relevant approaches as a foundation for this work.
Introgression From Gorilla Caused The Human-Chimpanzee Split
Creators: name: Nygren, Johan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018
Subjects: evolution; human; chimpanzee; gorilla; introgression

description: ABSTRACT: The Gorilla Genome Project (Scally, 2012) showed that 30% of the gorilla genome introgressed into the ancestor of humans and chimpanzees, and that the two species diverged through lineage sorting with 15% ending up in Pan and another 15% in Homo. That introgression is the Pan-Homo split, hybridization, which led to speciation as the new hybrid lineages became reproductively isolated from one another.

The NUMT on chromosome 5 (“ps5”) (Popadin, 2017) fits perfectly with the introgression speciation model, it was formed from mtDNA that had diverged from the common ancestor of Pan-Homo for 1.8 Myr at the time of insertion into the nuclear genome, and originated in the Gorilla lineage. The ps5 pseudogene was transferred to Pan and Homo during the introgression event that led to the Pan-Homo split, 6 million years ago.

That introgression is the Pan-Homo split, hybridization, which led to speciation as the new hybrid lineages became reproductively isolated from one another.

The NUMT on chromosome 5 fits perfectly with the introgression speciation model, it was formed from mtDNA that had diverged as much as ~4.5 Myr at the time of introgression, perfect fit with the Gorilla/Pan-Homo split, and the mtDNA fragments that formed it were inserted at the time of the Homo/Pan split, and ended up in both the Gorilla, Pan and Homo lineages around the same time period, 6 million years ago.

An Ultra-Compact 14 GHz Integer-N Sub-Sampling PLL with RMS-Jitter of 85.4 fs for mm-Wave 5G Communications and Sensings
Creators: name: KAR, DIPAN
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2025
Subjects: PLL VCO SSPLL Low area PLL

description: This thesis describes a 14-GHz sub-sampling PLL (SSPLL), as well as its phase noise analysis, optimization, and design for future 5G wireless transceivers. The theoretical and measured performance improvements of the phase-locked loop (PLL) over single-stage PLL in terms of jitter and power consumption are presented. The proposed capacitor multiplier shrinks the loop filter capacitor size by 28 times. The active capacitor is boosted to reduce out-of-band phase noise while consuming less power. The SSPLL is built in a 65-nm CMOS process with a core active area of 0.0918 mm2 and operates at 1.2-V supply, achieving a tuning range of 13.1-14.8 GHz, 85.4-fs integrated jitter at 14 GHz, 8.12-mW power consumption, and -252.4 dB figure-of merit (FoM). The measured in-band and out-of-band phase noises were -108.6 dBc/Hz at 1-MHz offset and -128.9 dBc/Hz at a 10-MHz offset, respectively.

description: Beam-induced background comes from interactions of the beam and beam halo particles with either the residual gas in the vacuum chamber of accelerator or the collimators that define the beam aperture. Beam-induced processes can potentially be a significant source of background for physics analyses at the LHC. This contribution describes the simulation software environment used for this part of the CMS experiment activity and recent beam-induced background simulation results for the Phase-2 CMS operation design.
Emotional Features of Responses to Political News

Emotions

description: Small, local newspapers are systematically understudied, however, in online spaces, these newspapers present significant opportunity for civic engagement in rural communities. The comment sections of these small, local newspapers present an opportunity to study how these communities interact in political spaces. The emotionality present in many of these Facebook comments can lead to further understanding around news engagement and political action. This research gives insight into the emotionality that can lead to polarized attitudes in non-urban spaces by answering the research question: how do responses to local news articles vary in emotional range? This thesis examines the range of emotions present in audience responses to rural newspapers’ political social media posts using content analysis of Facebook comments. Posts were taken from rural, community newspapers (N = 25) during a three-week period (June 29th – July 20th, 2022). 935 comments were analyzed for both directional and discrete emotions as well as basic content features using descriptive statistics. Results indicate that a majority of analyzed comments were negatively valanced with low emotional intensity. The prominent discrete emotion present was anger: more specifically, most of the analyzed comments expressed frustration. Many of the comments that did not contain any emotions were sharing information or giving context to other audience members. Future research will be needed to understand if these results are limited to the 25 newspapers selected, or if these findings can be generalized to show larger trends similar to nation-wide markets where the prevalence anger, fear, and anxiety is often cited as catalysts to political action.
title: Three essays on crisis management
title: investigating strategic remedies following product recall and their impact on corporate performance
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Yu, Huizhi
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2025
Subjects: Crisis Management
Governance Change
Organizational Learning
Product Recall
Public Action

description: This dissertation investigates the topic of crisis management and remedy strategy of product recall. The first essay examines how substantive changes in a firm’s governance structure after a major crisis may help it regain legitimacy, and how such actions may subsequently affect market reaction and firm performance. The main argument is that following an organizational crisis such as a product recall in the pharmaceutical industry that can affect a firm’s returns, reputation, and legitimacy, substantive changes in the upper echelon are needed to regain firm performance. My findings show that when the market reacts to a product recall negatively, firms are more likely to replace their CEO since governance change after a product recall announcement often leads to a positive market reaction and better long-term performance. The second essay examines the impact of public action on the market performance of firms following a product recall. I aim to provide insights into refining communication strategies and maintaining stakeholder trust through public actions. My study also highlights the role of media coverage and sentiment in shaping stakeholder perceptions. The results show that firms that take proactive public action experience less negative impacts on their stock market performance after a product recall. The positive impact of public action is amplified when media sentiment is high, and the media coverage has a positive tone.
description: The third essay explores the use of product recalls as a learning mechanism to improve innovation performance in firms. I argue that firms can leverage their recall experience to build knowledge and capabilities that can be applied to future products. The results of this study suggest that recall experience can help firms avoid future product failures and recall, while also enhancing their innovation performance. Moreover, the study demonstrates that the impact of recall experience may vary depending on the level of market diversification and R&D intensity within the organization. Highly diversified firms with recall experience are better equipped to identify and capitalize on new opportunities for innovation. Firms with high levels of R&D intensity have a greater capacity for organizational learning and avoid future recall.
