Theses and Dissertations in Business Administration
Collective animosity and its effects on consumers' perceptions of and preferences for foreign products from the perpetrators' country of origin has received considerable attention in the marketing literature (Ettenson and Klein 2005; Klein, Ettenson and Morris 1998; Klein 2002; Nijseen and Douglas 2005).

Organization Management Journal
This cross-national study investigates antecedents and outcomes of corporate responsibility (CR) practices to stakeholders and the natural environment in the contrasting contexts of China and the US.

In addition, we found that the relationship between the prevalence of CR practices and business outcomes …

Factor analysis provides evidence that stock returns in a number of Asian countries are highly correlated and, based on the resulting robust frictor loadings, they fbrm the first well-defined common factor. We also find consistent results (bused on both the PC and ML methods,) suggesting that the stock returns of all global developed economy stock markets are …

Many believe that social capital fosters the accumulation of human capital. Yet international university students arrive in their host country generally denuded of social capital and confronted by unfamiliar cultural and educational institutions. This study investigates how, and to what extent, international students renew their social networks, and whether such investments are positively associated with academic performance. We adopt a social capital framework and conduct a survey of international students at a typical Australian university in order to categorise and measure investments in social capital renewal, and test a multivariate model of academic performance that includes social capital variables, amongst …
