A Categorical Data Analysis On Relationships Between Culture, Creativity And Business Stage: The Case Of Vietnam, Quan Hoang Vuong, Nancy K. Napier, Tri Dung Tran Sep 2013

A Categorical Data Analysis On Relationships Between Culture, Creativity And Business Stage: The Case Of Vietnam, Quan Hoang Vuong, Nancy K. Napier, Tri Dung Tran

International Business Program

In this paper, we offer a new way of exploring relationships between three different dimensions of a business operation, namely the stages of business development, the methods of creativity and the major cultural values. Although separately each of these has gained enormous attention from the management research community, evidenced by a large volume of research studies, few studies have attempted to describe the logic that connect these three important aspects of a business, let alone develop empirical evidence that supports any significant relationships among these variables. This paper also provides a dataset and an empirical investigation on that dataset, using …


Cross-Generational Perspectives On Work-Life Balance And Its Impact, D. Roebuck, D. N. Smith, T. El Haddaoui Sep 2013

Cross-Generational Perspectives On Work-Life Balance And Its Impact, D. Roebuck, D. N. Smith, T. El Haddaoui

Faculty Articles

This qualitative study focuses on how women of three different generations, Generation Y, Generation X and Baby Boomers, view the concept of work-life balance and what relationship these views have to their attainment of workplace leadership positions. Work-life balance was defined differently across the three generations, but the generational lines faded as most women reported struggling with finding a balance. Some women conveyed choosing not to pursue high-level leadership positions as the personal cost was too high. Those who had obtained high-level leadership positions shared what types of support were most effective in helping them juggle personal and professional obligations. …

Service Recovery Expectations In Unstable Economies, Charlotte L. Hoopes, Dr. Kristie Seawright

Journal of Undergraduate Research

Despite the efforts and precautions a company may take to avoid errors or breakdowns during service delivery, failures are, at one time or another, bound to occur. Still, as unavoidable as service failures appear, organizations cannot afford to ignore the significant costs that result from customer defection and negative word of mouth.

Variable Interest Entity Disclosure A Look At Financial Firms And The Disclosure Of Vie’S, Brandon Seiter, Dr. Kay Stice Sep 2013

Variable Interest Entity Disclosure A Look At Financial Firms And The Disclosure Of Vie’S, Brandon Seiter, Dr. Kay Stice

Journal of Undergraduate Research

In 2002 the FASB, which sets all accounting standards for US publicly traded companies, met with its international counterpart the IASB in what is know as the Norwalk Agreement. The two organizations released a joint statement announcing their intentions to create a project that would converge the two accounting standards. It was my goal to understand how the convergence process was coming along. Originally I planned to look at foreign companies’ 20-F forms, a reconciliation from their foreign GAAP to US GAAP. Unfortunately as I started looking at several 20-F forms I realized that only recently have companies adopted IFRS …

Entrepreneurship In The Informal Economy: A Case Study In Vietnam, Quan Mai, Dr. Kristie Seawright Sep 2013

Entrepreneurship In The Informal Economy: A Case Study In Vietnam, Quan Mai, Dr. Kristie Seawright

Journal of Undergraduate Research

In the global economy, there are dynamic forces that frame the business environment. In both developed and developing countries, one of these forces is the growing number of entrepreneurs whose internal motivation drives them to seek for new opportunities to overcome their current economic situations. While entrepreneurs in the formal economy often have support from government stability, financial institutions and special interest groups, entrepreneurs in the informal economy often experience difficulty in initiating their ventures. However, there are a growing number of successful entrepreneurs in the informal economy. What matters more is the fact that those successful entrepreneurs have been …


How Background And Text Colors Affect Consumers Perceptions Of Trust In An Ecommerce Environment, Greg Moody, Dr. Paul Benjamin Lowry Sep 2013

How Background And Text Colors Affect Consumers Perceptions Of Trust In An Ecommerce Environment, Greg Moody, Dr. Paul Benjamin Lowry

Journal of Undergraduate Research

As e-business grows, it becomes imperative that businesses create usable, aesthetically pleasing websites to increase user satisfaction and transactions. Several disciplines have researched the effects of color on people, but only limited research has examined the effects of color use in websites. This paper provides direction for researchers and practitioners in designing websites that correctly implement color. First, we review color research from the disciplines of physiology, psychology, marketing, and sociology. Next, we discuss some of the current practitioner guidelines for website color use and then integrate existing theoretical color research into a theoretical model for use in guiding future …

The Effect Of Color Contrast On Consumer Trust In An E-Commerce Setting, Taylor Wells, Dr. Paul Benjamin Lowry Sep 2013

The Effect Of Color Contrast On Consumer Trust In An E-Commerce Setting, Taylor Wells, Dr. Paul Benjamin Lowry

Journal of Undergraduate Research

As e-business is becoming an increasingly important part of the world economy, businesses are looking for methods and strategies to increase visitation to their websites and more importantly positively affect purchase intentions. One strategy for increasing purchase intention that has been found effective is to increase consumer trust with websites; websites that generate higher levels of consumer trust tend to have higher hit rates and purchase. Although trust is a complex and multidimensional construct, one study has suggested that color can have an effect on trust with websites (Kim & Moon, 1998). To further understand this phenomenon, the relationship between …
