in this study, the relationships between human resource practices (hrps), firm performance (service quality), and the mediation effects of employees’ abilities were examined. to assess the relationships between variables, before evaluating the fitted structural model, the measurement model was defined to verify that the measurement variables used to reflect the unobserved constructs do so in a ...

In empirical corporate finance, firm size is commonly used as an important, fundamental firm characteristic. However, no paper comprehensively assesses the sensitivity of empirical results in corporate finance to different measures of firm size. This paper fills this hole by providing empirical evidence for “measurement effect” in “size effect”. In particular, this paper studies the influences ...

Prior studies consistently report higher explanatory power (R) for firm-specific returns-earnings models than for pooled models. The improvement in R by adding firm-specific coefficients to returns-earnings regressions is cited as evidence that price responses to earnings news vary with certain firm-specific characteristics. We argue that relying on R as a criterion to evaluate competing return...

This paper explores the firm growth rate distribution in a Gibrat's Law context. The aim is to provide an empirical exploration of the determinants of firm growth. The work is novel in two respects. First, rather than limiting the analysis to focus on the conditional mean growth level, we investigate the complete shape of the distribution. Second, we show that the differences in the firm growth...
