The Great Temporal Divide: How Top Management Team Temporal Faultlines and Dominant Subgroups Shape Firm Innovativeness in Iran

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract While executives vary in attention to the past, present, and future, prior work has largely examined these temporal orientations in isolation or at the individual level, which limits insight into how they jointly configure within top management teams (TMTs) and translate into firm behaviours.

Effect of resin type, cleaning solution, and aging on the mechanical properties and reliability of additively manufactured occlusal devices

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of alcohol‐free cleaning solutions on the mechanical properties and reliability of additively manufactured occlusal device resins, compared with isopropyl alcohol (IPA), while considering the influence of aging.

Normal automorphisms of relatively hyperbolic groups

, 2010
An automorphism of a group G is normal if it fixes every normal subgroup of G setwise. We give an algebraic description of normal automorphisms of relatively hyperbolic groups.

A novel dental implant nut system designed to enhance primary stability: Mechanical and finite element analysis

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The present study aimed to evaluate, in a preclinical setting, the biomechanical behavior and mechanical performance of a newly developed dental implant nut system designed to address primary stability challenges in the severely resorbed posterior maxilla.

Basis risk, social comparison, perceptions of fairness, and demand for insurance: A field experiment in Ethiopia

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance lowers agricultural risk but covers only covariate risks. Since farmers do not have complete insurance, they may develop mistrust of insurance when experiencing crop losses and not receiving payouts. Although recent innovations in remote sensing enable the provision of more complete insurance including coverage for ...

Analysing reforms of social security disability pension provision in a multistage overlapping generations model

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper introduces a multi‐stage Overlapping Generations (OLG) model of workers and retirees, segmented by disability status and eligibility for Disability Pension (DP) benefits. Extending Gertler (1999) with progressive disability stages of distinct productivity and transition probabilities, and calibrated to US data, the model generates ...

Too Much Finance: Mechanisms That Harm Growth and Policy Implications

The Manchester School, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms for the financial sector to harm growth arise through short‐termism of financial markets. This leads to the misallocation of resources in the private sector, leading to financial crises and damage to growth. However, harm to growth comes not only from financial crises, but also from the failure of short‐termist financial markets

Acylindrical hyperbolicity of groups acting on trees

, 2015
We provide new examples of acylindrically hyperbolic groups arising from actions on simplicial trees. In particular, we consider amalgamated products and HNN-extensions, 1-relator groups, automorphism groups of polynomial algebras, 3-manifold groups and ...

Effects of Learning Context and Program Length on L2 Skill Development

The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the effects of learning context (study abroad versus at home) and program length (summer versus semester) on the development of four language skills among learners of Chinese as a second language (L2). A total of 725 L2 Chinese learners completed standardized proficiency tests before and after participating in their ...
