The origins of the term “culture” in Anthropology and Sociology are reviewed. While there are various usages, the “interaction perspective” inductively explores the interactions and interpretations that represent a culture and its subcultures. During the Human Relation era (1920s–1960s), field studies described the formal and informal organizations...

A conceptu...
This article describes the development and use of detailed online quizzes to enhance student performance and course experience. The instructor�s situation is very typical of a regional business school with no major, minor, track, or any such specialized course of study in operations management. Students only take one required operations course in t...
This article describes the development and strategic application of online quizzes to enhance student performance and overall course experience. Although research has increased in the field of technological delivery of educational content, there is yet a dearth of studies when compared to the quantity of activity in practice. The experimental situa...

Senior‐level business students from both the USA (228 students) and Thailand (260 students) were surveyed regarding their perceptions of what constituted sexual harassment beh...
Conceptually examines the effect of individualism/collectivism on the tenets of equity theory. It is the view of the authors that the equality principle of reward allocation in collectivistic cultures is not a separate method of distribution, but a subset of the theoretically grounded equity principle appropriately integrating the cross-cultural in...
A comparison of distributive justice strategies was made between a collectivistic culture, i.e., Mexico, and an individualistic culture, i.e., the United States. This study is the first to include the effect of ingroup/outgroup on the distribution strategies as Fischer and Smith (2003) called for in their extensive meta-analysis of the topic. Distr...
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relationship between national culture and ethical decision making. Established theories of ethics and moral development are reviewed and a culture-based model of ethical decision making in organizations is derived. Although the body of knowledge in both cross-cultural management and ethics is well documen...
The purpose of this paper is to determine the impact of cultureon the values of Japanese-Americans and Hispanic-Americans. TheJapanese-American sample and Hispanic-American sample are firstlooked at individually to determine which values are more alignedwith the modern culture (American), and which values are morealigned with the traditional cultur...
Distributive justice research within the realm of the Eastern world has been based primarily on the application of a Western cultural theoretical perspective to Eastern cultures. This paper questions the foundational assumptions upon which much of the past cross-cultural equity research has been based and offers a new perspective. This new perspect...

... Some studies analyze the effect of technology on career success considering the demographic predictors of career success and proposing that technological development is critical in removing barriers for different demographic groups that have historically faced them (Fadil et al. 2009). For instance, (Roztocki et al. 2019) describe a conceptual framework that takes into account the four factors-policy, business, technology, and society-that have an effect on socioeconomic development. ...

... This study was an attempt to address this gap, by examining the cross-cultural factorial validity of the AMS, to help drive cross-cultural research on the AMS and cross-cultural comparative tests on academic motives. Validation of the scale in a non-Western context is essential because the revalidation of management theory is critical to its application to new cultural contexts (Chen, 2008;Kernan et al., 2011;Williamson and Fadil, 2009). ...
... Unless these factors are examined simultaneously, it will be difficult to provide faculty with guidance on how to build a more inclusive class climate (Crombie et al. 2003;Frisby and Martin 2010;Rocca 2010). Furthermore, research needs to broaden beyond identifying the influence of demographic differences on participation to develop a strong theoretical paradigm that can be used to respond to the barriers that these differences may create for the modern classroom (Gupta et al. 2009). ...
... This lack of an explicit address affects "people's understanding of and sensitivity to" sexual harassment incidents and deters victims from filing complaints about any incidences [13]. This is reflected in the responses detailed in Limpaphayom et al.'s study of sexual harassment perceptions in Thai respondents as compared to American respondents [21]. The variety of responses to the Likert-scale type questionnaire about sexual harassment scenarios signals the difference in understanding sexual harassment. ...
... Distributive justice is an extent to which rewards are distributed in an equal and just manner [31]. Distributive justice is a phenomenon of dealing fairly and treating equitably the wealth within the free system of economics [32]. ...

... Studies done on intrinsic work motivation and job satisfaction are limited to specific countries and specific organisations reporting different and conflicting findings (Eskildsen et al., 2004). A country's cultural differences influence the organisation's behaviour and that of the employee through collectivism and individualism affecting performance and profitability (Fadil et al., 2009). ...
... Equitable vs. equal reward allocations and distributive fairness and PA satisfaction Some ratees seek equitable rewards while others strive for equal rewards and accordingly they regard these rewards fair and satisfying (Fadil et al., 2005). Previous studies suggest that ratees perceive equitable outcomes more positively than equal outcomes (Tremblay et al., 2013). ...
... 24 The strategic survival elements of the family business are in fact recognized to be: warmer interpersonal relationships and a loyal and dedicated workforce, which bring to low staff turnover, due regard for authority, sensitivity to local culture, and continuity tied to common choices and values (Preti et al. 2005). Humanistic approaches-cultural (Bonazzi 2002;Ailon and Kunda 2009;Fortado and Fadil 2012) and subjective (Decker 1998;Tàpies and Moya 2012)-in relation to the hard ones (Tosi and Pilati 2009) are thus of fundamental importance in the family business and are part of their heritage. ...

... The next focus is on (management) teams in an ISA. Analyzing the sample of articles made evident that factors like trust (e.g., Currall and Inkpen 2002;Luo 2002;Girmscheid and Brockmann 2010;Wai On et al. 2013), commitment (e.g., Dadfar et al. 2014;Liu and Zhang 2014;Owens et al. 2018), and communication (e.g., Zeybek et al. 2003;Choi et al. 2010) are extant on the group-related level as well. Furthermore, these factors help to guarantee the functioning of (management) teams in ISA, as their activities regularly relate to alliance performance. ...
... Culture-influenced EDM models exist throughout the literature. Robertson and Fadil (1999) created an EDM culture-based model for multinational organizations. Their work builds off of Jones (1991) moral intensity, Hofstede's (1984) Individualism versus Collectivism, and Kohlberg's (1984) Stages of Moral Development models. ...
