This paper analyses the impact of corporate culture on knowledge transfer. A structural equation model is developed to test to what extent corporate culture influences knowledge transfer behaviour and how this leads to successful knowledge transfer. Based on a sample of 168 German firms the results reflect a highly significant impact of corporate culture on successful knowledge transfer within ...

Previous research claimed that organizational stress, due to task complexity and time pressure, leads to considerably negative effects on the decision-making performance of individuals and organizations. At the same time, intellectual capital (IC), in providing intangible internal and external organizational assets has a positive effect on organizational decision-making performance. This paper ...

This study explored the predictive power of effortful control (EC) on empathy, academic performance, and social competence in adolescents. We obtained self-report measures of EC and dispositional empathy in 359 students (197 girls and 162 boys) aged between 12 and 14 years. Each student provided information about the prosocial behavior of the rest of his/her classmates and completed a sociogram...

According to Stakeholder Theory, the author of the article conducted a research on the influence of corporate social responsibility (CSR for short) on its performance by using the Structural Equation Modeling. On the basis of the research results of available literatures, setting up an assumptive Conceptual Model indicating the relationship between the factors of corporate social responsibility...

This study examined dropout behavior, using the conceptual framework of achievement goal theory. We hypothesized that dropout could be predicted by a high ego-oriented goal disposition in combination with a low perception of personal skill and the perception that the coach and sport peers maintained ego-oriented sport success criteria. The participants were 134 adolescent athletes involved in h...

Customer trust is the important case which is needed by company where this behaviour will determine to customer buying interest, especially for organic products that have different characteristic from common products. Actually, this product has not developed rapidly in Indonesia. Reviews from those phenomenon, so it is conducted the research on mediating impact of retail image as organic produc...

This study developed a research model based on the tricomponent attitude� model and explored factors influencing e-shoppers’ real purchase behaviors. This study showed that these determinants could be divided into positive and negative approaches. The research sample consisted of 385 valid respondents who are experienced users on Books.com.tw. This research study adopted the structural equation...

Childhood wasting is a global problem and is significantly more pronounced in low and middle income countries like Bangladesh. Socio Economic Status (SES) and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) practices may be significantly associated with wasting. Most previous research is consistent about the role of SES, but the significance of WASH in the context of wasting remains ambiguous. The effect ...

We perform a study of the nonperturbative dynamics of the light-quark sector of QCD, based on some recent results of lattice simulations with chiral fermions. We analyze some correlators that are designed to probe the Dirac structure of the quark-quark interaction at different scales. We show that, in the nonperturbative regime, such an interaction contains very large scalar and pseudoscalar co...
