title: INFORMATION MANAGEMENT CAPABILITY AND BIG DATA STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATION

description: ABSTRACT Firms are increasingly interested in developing Big Data strategies. However, the expectation of the value of these benefits and of the costs involved in acquiring or developing these solutions are not homogeneous for all firms, which generates competitive imperfections in the market for strategic resources. Information Management Capability (IMC) aims to provide the required unique insights for successful Big Data strategies. This study analyzes IMC as an imperfection agent in the market for strategic Big Data resources. The hypotheses were tested using a survey of 101 respondents and analyzed with SEM-PLS. The results indicate the positive influence of IMC on value expectation and a negative effect on cost expectation. Cost expectation inversely affects the intent to purchase or develop the resources to implement Big Data strategies. Value expectation has a positive effect on both intents.

title: INTENTION TO ADOPT BIG DATA IN SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT: A BRAZILIAN PERSPECTIVE

description: ABSTRACT Big data applications have been remodeling several business models and provoking strong radical transformations in supply chain management (SCM). Supported by the literature on big data, supply chain management, and the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), this study aims to evaluate the variables that influence the intention of Brazilian SCM professionals to adopt big data. To this end, we adapted and validated a previously developed UTAUT model. A survey of 152 supply chain respondents revealed that facilitating conditions (e.g., IT infrastructure) have a high influence on their intention to adopt big data. However, social influence and performance expectancy showed no significant effect. This study contributes to the practical field, offering valuable insights for decision-makers considering big data projects. It also contributes to the literature by helping minimize the research gap in big data in the Brazilian context.

title: FACTORS AFFECTING THE ADOPTION OF BIG DATA ANALYTICS IN COMPANIES

description: ABSTRACT With the total quantity of data doubling every two years, the low price of computing and data storage, make Big Data analytics (BDA) adoption desirable for companies, as a tool to get competitive advantage. Given the availability of free software, why have some companies failed to adopt these techniques? To answer this question, we extend the unified theory of technology adoption and use of technology model (UTAUT) adapted for the BDA context, adding two variables: resistance to use and perceived risk. We used the level of implementation of these techniques to divide companies into users and non-users of BDA. The structural models were evaluated by partial least squares (PLS). The results show the importance of good infrastructure exceeds the difficulties companies face in implementing it. While companies planning to use Big Data expect strong results, current users are more skeptical about its performance.

title: MEASURING ACCESSIBILITY: A BIG DATA PERSPECTIVE ON UBER SERVICE WAITING TIMES

description: ABSTRACT This study aims to relate information about the waiting times of ride-sourcing services, with specific reference to Uber, using socioeconomic variables from São Paulo, Brazil. The intention is to explore the possibility of using this measure as an accessibility proxy. A database was created with the mean waiting time data per district, which was aggregated to a set of socioeconomic and transport infrastructure variables. From this database, a multiple linear regression model was built. In addition, the stepwise method selected the most significant variables. Moran's I test confirmed the spatial distribution pattern of the measures, motivating the use of a spatial autoregressive model. The results indicate that physical variables, such as area and population density, are important to explain this relation. However, the mileage of district bus lines and the non-white resident rate were also significant. Besides, the spatial component indicates a possible relation to accessibility.

title: CONSUMERS’ KNOWLEDGE, MAXIMIZING TENDENCIES, AND POST-DECISION INFORMATION SEARCH

description: ABSTRACT Nowadays consumers have more previous knowledge about products and services before making decisions. This study sheds light on the effects of consumers’ previous knowledge on post-decision information search. Previous studies argue that cognitive dissonance and feelings of regret or dissatisfaction elicit this search. However, we show through one experimental and two correlational studies that this view is incomplete. Our findings indicate that knowledgeable consumers search for more information at the post-decision stage, even when the decision cannot be modified. This main effect is stronger (weaker) for maximizers (satisficers). Also, cognitive dissonance affects the post-decision information search behavior. Therefore, we suggest a new variable, consumers’ previous knowledge, for consideration in the post-decision information search model.

title: DISHONESTY IS CONTAGIOUS: INVESTIGATING THE DOMINO EFFECT OF DYSFUNCTIONAL CUSTOMER BEHAVIORS

description: ABSTRACT The interaction between dysfunctional customers and other customers can cause the domino effect (i.e., the dissemination of a dysfunctional client’s behavior to other nearby clients). However, it is not understood if this effect will manifest under certain levels of damage to the company. This study thus aims to verify if the amount of damage from the dysfunctional behavior can affect the probability of the domino effect. Through five experimental studies, we prove that the amount of damage influences the likelihood of dysfunctional behavior replication. Moreover, we found that this effect is explained by the acceptability of the dysfunctional behavior. We also identify that a consumer’s ethics level, perception of risk in replicating the behavior, and social distance acts as boundary conditions of the amount of damage effect on the probability of replicating the dysfunctional behavior.

title: LEVERAGING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF KNOWLEDGE-INTENSIVE SERVICES: THE ROLES OF CUSTOMERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS

description: ABSTRACT This study develops a theoretical model that relates customer participation in knowledge-intensive services (KIS), the actions of service providers to encourage customer engagement and the effectiveness of services. Five hypotheses were tested using structural equations, and data were collected by surveying a sample of 106 users of physical therapy, personal training, Pilates and global postural reeducation services. The results show that educating customers is not enough; service providers need to empathize and create an emotional bond with them. Additionally, customer education and emotional empathy have different effects on customer feedback and the extent to which customers follow instructions. This study contributes to the literature by promoting a holistic view of the factors that influence customer participation and its effectiveness in KIS.

title: EXPORT PERFORMANCE IN SOUTH AMERICA: DO INTANGIBLES AFFECT FIRMS’ PERFORMANCE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES SUCH AS PERU?

description: ABSTRACT This study is one of the first empirical studies on intellectual capital (IC) in South American textile exporting companies. Using the resources and capabilities approach, we examine how certain intangibles can provide competitive advantages. We propose and test a model capturing the relationships between IC components and export performance (EP), as well as the various interrelationships among the different dimensions of IC. Using a sample of textile manufacturers operating in Peru, an emerging economy, we find that both human capital and structural capital have a significantly positive influence on EP. However, the data analysis does not confirm that relational capital has any positive influence on export performance.

title: HIGH-PERFORMANCE LEVEL AND TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT AMONG WINERY FIRMS IN THE WINE INDUSTRY CLUSTER OF BAJA CALIFORNIA: A FSQCA APPROACH

description: ABSTRACT This paper analyzes how wineries in the wine industry cluster of Baja California in Mexico achieve a high-performance level and engage in technology management. The study uses the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis approach to inquire into the necessary and sufficient conditions for firms in this industry cluster to attain a high-performance level. Our research hypothesis suggests that the presence of some resources (conditions) in the wine industry cluster of Baja California is a necessary and sufficient condition (set-theoretic relations) to achieve a high-performance level (outcome). Accordingly, this study examines the causal complexity observed in set-theoretic relations and high-performance levels in the wine industry cluster of Baja California. An important finding in this research is that winery firms in Baja California do not need to develop interdependent innovations to achieve a high-performance level. However, research and development efforts, good supplier relations, and production capacity are necessary conditions to achieve a high performance level in this cluster.

title: Local accessory gene sharing among Egyptian Campylobacter potentially promotes the spread of antimicrobial resistance

description: <em>Campylobacter </em>is the most common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide and diarrheal disease is a major cause of child morbidity, growth faltering, and mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Despite evidence of high incidence and differences in disease epidemiology, there is limited genomic data from studies in developing countries. In this study, we aimed to quantify the extent of gene sharing in local and global populations. We characterized the genetic diversity and accessory genome content of a collection of <em>Campylobacter</em> isolates from Cairo metropolitan area, Egypt. In total, 112 <em>Campylobacter</em> isolates were collected from broiler carcasses (n=31), milk and dairy products (n=24) and patients (n=57) suffering from gastroenteritis. Among the most common sequence types (STs), we identified the globally disseminated host generalist ST-21 clonal complex (CC21) and the poultry specialist CC206, CC464 and CC48. Notably, CC45 and the cattle-specialist CC42 were under-represented with a total absence of CC61. Core and accessory genome sharing was compared among isolates from Egypt and a comparable collection from the UK (Oxford). Lineage-specific accessory genome sharing was significantly higher among isolates from the same country, particularly CC21 which demonstrated greater local geographical clustering. In contrast, no geographic clustering was noted in either the core or accessory genomes of the CC828, suggesting a highly admixed population. A greater proportion of <em>C. coli</em> isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR) compared to <em>C. jejuni. </em>Our results suggest that there is more horizontal transfer of accessory genes between strains in Egypt. This has strong implications for controlling the spread of AMR among this important pathogen.

title: Local accessory gene sharing drives lineage-specific acquisition of antimicrobial resistance in Egyptian Campylobacter spp.

description: <i>Campylobacter </i>is the most common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide and diarrheal disease is a major cause of child morbidity, growth faltering and mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Despite evidence of high incidence and differences in disease epidemiology, there is limited genomic data from studies in developing countries. In this study, we characterized the genetic diversity and accessory genome content of a collection of <i>Campylobacter</i> isolates from Cairo, Egypt. In total, 112 <i>Campylobacter</i> isolates were collected from broiler carcasses (n=31), milk and dairy products (n=24) and patients (n=57) suffering from gastroenteritis. Among the most common sequence types (STs) we identified were the globally disseminated, host generalist ST-21 clonal complex (CC21) and the poultry specialist CC206, CC464 and CC48. Notably, CC45 and the cattle-specialist CC42 were under-represented with a total absence of CC61. Comparative genomics were used to quantify core and accessory genome sharing among isolates from the same country compared to sharing between countries. Lineage-specific accessory genome sharing was significantly higher among isolates from the same country, particularly CC21 which demonstrated greater local geographical clustering. In contrast, no geographic clustering was noted in either the core or accessory genomes of the CC828, suggesting a highly admixed population. A greater proportion of <i>C. coli</i> isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR) compared to <i>C. jejuni. </i>This is a significant public health concern as MDR food chain pathogens are difficult to treat and often pose increased mortality risk demanding enhanced prevention strategies in the Egyptian market to combat such a threat.

title: DESIGNING ARCHITECTURAL MARKETING CAPABILITIES TO INCREASE THE PERFORMANCE OF SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES

description: ABSTRACT This study aims to examine the relationship between the components of market orientation, i.e., customer orientation, competitor orientation, inter-functional coordination, architectural marketing capabilities and business performance. Researchers have been trying to find a solution for the gap that exists between market orientation and business performance. The respondents of this study were the owners or heads of 358 SMEs located in Central Java, Indonesia. This study used structural equation modeling (SEM) for data analysis. The results showed that customer orientation (CSO), competitor orientation (CO), and inter-functional coordination (IC) have a significant effect on architectural marketing capabilities (AMC) and business performance (BP), and that AMC also has a significant effect on business performance. Furthermore, architectural marketing capabilities can mediate the relationship between customer orientation, competitor orientation, inter-functional coordination and business performance.

title: ACADEMIC JOURNALS AS AGENTS OF THE SCIENTIFIC FIELD OF ADMINISTRATION

description: ABSTRACT Academic journals are important agents of the scientific field of Administration, understood as a space characterized by a logic of its own, where several actors compete and resort to various types of capital in order to determine the monopoly over scientific authority. How do academic journals follow and reflect the dynamic of the scientific field of Administration in Brazil? How do these actors position themselves in such a field? This article shows how academic journals are important agents that mark the field’s dynamic and reinforce scientific contribution legitimation strategies. Finally, we discuss the current internationalization challenges for journals in the area in the light of the field’s dynamic.
