Abstract Newswise — Previous research suggests that artificial intelligence (AI) influences organizational resources through automation and augmentation. We extend this perspective by identifying backfire effects, driven primarily by technological uncertainty in AI implementation. We propose that imitation strategies can help microenterprises mitigate these challenges. Using a simulation methodology, the findings indicate that imitation is more…
Newswise — Florida State University President Richard McCullough will be a member of the newest class inducted into the Florida Inventors Hall of Fame. McCullough was recognized for his discovery and development of a type of polymer known as regioregular polythiophenes and other breakthrough organic electronic materials, and for founding companies that have advanced the…
Newswise — A new planning formula to optimise the lifecycle value of Australia’s warships in an era of geopolitical instability has been proposed by researchers at the University of South Australia. Based on an existing model used in financial decision making – the Real Options Approach (ROA) – but with modifications to address the unique…
Abstract Newswise — The sensorialization of e-commerce environments presents a compelling strategy to mitigate the lack of tactile experiences in online shopping. Grounded in cross-modal mental imagery theory, this study investigates how online product presentation can generate satisfying tactile experiences and drive favorable consumer responses. The findings indicate that augmented reality (AR)-based product presentations generally…
Abstract Newswise — This research examines how stress affects satiation from consumption experiences. A defining property of stress is the perception that the current environment is uncontrollable. Across four studies, we find that stress, via its influence on the perception of control, can reduce satiation from art, music, gaming, and eating. When it comes to…
BYLINE: Lara Pacillo Newswise — New research suggests converting the Australian dairy industry’s whey waste into a valuable food product is more feasible than many realise, with significant potential for industry-wide change. Whey is a by-product of cheese manufacturing and one of the largest sources of food loss and waste in the Australian dairy sector,…
Abstract Newswise — This study focuses on “the paradox of government support,” and examines the direct, moderating, and contingent effects of government subsidies on new product development (NPD). Drawing on the resource management perspective, we argue that subsidies lead to both learning effects and inefficiency problems. Different subsidy levels make these two conflicting effects more…
Abstract Newswise — While artificial intelligence technology advances have enabled rapid changes in AI generated content (AIGC) in advertising, little is known about consumer attitudes to AI-generated ads. Drawing on mind perception theory, we argue consumers have different attitudes toward AI-generated ads with agentic and communal appeals. Through four experiments, we show that consumers have…
Abstract Research Summary Newswise — This article examines whether and how firms adapt to physical exposures to climate change. I build a novel dataset that compiles information on the adaptation strategies of publicly traded companies around the globe and merge it with climate science data. I find that firms are sensitive to the nature and…
