This study tests competing theories of how the relationship between rationality in strategic decision processes and firm performance may be moderated by environmental dynamism. Results, based on a survey of 101 manufacturing firms, indicate a positive rationality-performance relationship for firms facing dynamic environments, but no relationship between rationality and performance for firms facing stable environments. Implications for future research are discussed.
Security and privacy issues are often an afterthought when it comes to system design. However, failure to address these issues during analysis and design could result in catastrophic effects. We propose a conceptual model for creating subsystems of security and privacy that are integral parts of the overall system architecture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
