A Consistent Heteroskedasticity‐Robust LM‐Type Specification Test for Semiparametric Models
ABSTRACT This article develops a heteroskedasticity‐robust Lagrange Multiplier‐type specification test for semiparametric regression models. The test is able to detect a wide class of deviations from the null hypothesis. The test statistic is based on the estimates from the restricted semiparametric model, can be computed in a regression‐based way, and

When Does Top Management Team Diversity Matter in Large Organizations?
ABSTRACT Top management teams (TMTs) drive strategic leadership, but there is little clarity on when the composition of these upper echelons most impacts organization performance. Drawing from the categorization‐elaboration model, we study an 18‐year sample of approximately 4500 organizations and over 32 000 executives and find a positive relationship ...
