Persuasion in the political marketplace: How firms snitch on rivals to encourage regulatory enforcement

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, Volume 47, Issue 8, Page 2306-2340, August 2026.
Abstract Research Summary We study an important, but largely overlooked, non‐market strategy used by firms in the enforcement stage of policy: “snitching,” that is, providing intelligence about potential violations of their rivals in an attempt to persuade regulators to fine them.

Informal Firms' Adoption and Use of Mobile Money Under Uncertain Times: Evidence From Burkina Faso

open access: yesReview of Development Economics, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 1533-1564, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how uncertainty affects mobile money adoption and use by informal businesses. Despite the prevalence of the informal sector in developing countries and the recognized potential of mobile money for financial inclusion, empirical research on its adoption and usage among unregistered businesses is limited.

The Multiplicative Consistency Index of Hesitant Fuzzy Preference Relation

IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2016
Hesitant fuzzy preference relation (HFPR) shows to be a unique and suitable technique to integrate all the values of decision makers when comparing pairwise alternatives (or criteria), while the consistency index of a HFPR determines the accuracy and reliability.

On the use of multiplicative consistency in hesitant fuzzy linguistic preference relations

Knowledge-Based Systems, 2014
As a new preference structure, the hesitant fuzzy linguistic preference relation (HFLPR) was recently introduced by Rodriguez, Martinez, and Herrera to efficiently address situations in which the decision makers (DMs) are hesitant about several possible linguistic terms for the preference degrees over paired comparisons of alternatives.

Some Hesitant Multiplicative Aggregation Operators and Their Application in Group Decision Making with Hesitant Multiplicative Preference Relations

International Journal of Fuzzy Systems, 2016
The hesitant multiplicative preference relation (HMPR) is a newly developed preference structure that uses an unsymmetrical scale (Saaty’s 1–9 scale) to express the decision makers’ (DMs’) preferences instead of the symmetrical scale (0.1–0.9 scale) in a hesitant fuzzy preference relation.

Addressing site selection for earthquake shelters with hesitant multiplicative linguistic preference relation

Information Sciences, 2020
Abstract To reduce the damage caused by earthquakes, the paper develops a decision-making method under uncertainty, which validly addresses the site selection for earthquake shelters. Since site selection after earthquakes is an emergency decision-making process, during which there always exists inaccuracy and complexity, it is more rational to adopt

Generalized hesitant multiplicative preference relations and the analytic risk-network process

Information Sciences, 2020
Abstract The hesitant fuzzy preference relation (HFPR) and the hesitant multiplicative preference relation (HMPR) are emerging techniques in decision-making research field. Clearly, an intuitionistic idea to improve the above preference relations is to synthesize the HFPR and the HMPR, which is also a primary contribution of this paper.

Consensus building for hesitant fuzzy preference relations with multiplicative consistency

Computers and Industrial Engineering, 2019
Abstract Considering that consensus is an essential part of a group decision-making process, this study focuses on building consensus for hesitant fuzzy preference relations (HFPRs) with multiplicative consistency. To achieve this goal, firstly, a new multiplicative consistency concept for the HFPR is proposed.
