Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)

The Impact of Generative AI on the Perpetuation and Detection of Greenwashing in Sustainability Reports: Insights From an Experiment

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our study, based around an experiment, examines the consequences when generative AI tools are used to create and assess sustainability disclosures. There are two key findings: (1) that generative AI greenwashes sustainability disclosures, with our study participants doing little to mitigate this, and (2) that our study participants viewed AI ...

From Material Tensions to Organizational Paradoxes: How Manufacturers Cope With the Limits of Circular Product Design

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular product design (CPD) is central to advancing the circular economy by enabling the narrowing, slowing, and closing of resource flows. Yet, its implementation remains persistently challenging for firms. Prior research has largely framed these challenges as discrete barriers, overlooking the structural contradictions embedded in CPD ...
