“…However, they focus on the impact of the uncertainties associated with new product development projects, buyer risk aversion, and buying firm's effort share on contractual decisions. Schiffels, Fliedner, and Kolisch () conduct experiments to understand the impact of cognitive limitations on portfolio selection of new product development projects. Studies into the biases toward and impacts associated with the reduction of certain aspects of new product cycle times (Bendoly & Chao, 2016) have shed light on traps common to innovation processes.…”

Behavioral Operations and Supply Chain Management–A Review and Literature Mapping

et al. 2019

Behavioral operations research has proliferated greatly over the decade since its first formal review in 2006. The growth of the field warrants an objective mapping of contributions to the literature and the identification of trends. We conduct a systematic review of the literature of behavioral operations and supply chain management (BOSCM) across eight key operations and supply chain management journals, with publication dates through the end of June 2018. Collected articles are categorized into 12 operations contexts as well as emerging topic considerations. Key research trends, theoretical foundations, and methodological choices are discussed in each context. The results show that supply chain management, inventory management, and procurement/auctions have been the most popular operations contexts for BOSCM researchers. The results of our co‐citation analysis shows that the fundamental research areas that have informed and shaped the field include supply chain risk management, marketing, cognitive psychology, and social psychology. Based on these findings and a survey of the most prolific authors in the field, we discuss possible avenues for future research.

“…A number of works in the field (e.g., Tetlock, 2007; Henry, 2008; Tetlock et al., 2008; Loughran & McDonald, 2011) treat all financial disclosures alike, without considering a potential heterogeneity in the reception across topics. Our work, however, is positioned around recent analyses in finance‐related research according to which the response to financial materials cannot be assumed to be independent of decision‐making strategies (Schiffels, Fliedner, & Kolisch, 2018; Taylor, 1975). Instead, researchers must accurately identify and account for such confounding factors in order to achieve rigor.…”

This paper provides a holistic study of how stock prices vary in their response to financial disclosures across different topics. Thereby, we specifically shed light into the extensive amount of filings for which no a priori categorization of their content exists. For this purpose, we utilize an approach from data mining -namely, latent Dirichlet allocation -as a means of topic modeling. This technique facilitates our task of automatically categorizing, ex ante, the content of more than 70,000 regulatory 8-K filings from U.S. companies. We then evaluate the subsequent stock market reaction. Our empirical evidence suggests a considerable discrepancy among various types of news stories in terms of their relevance and impact on financial markets. For instance, we find a statistically significant abnormal return in response to earnings results and credit rating, but also for disclosures regarding business strategy, the health sector, as well as mergers and acquisitions. Our results yield findings that benefit managers, investors and policy-makers by indicating how 1 arXiv:1805.03308v1 [cs.CL] 8 May 2018 regulatory filings should be structured and the topics most likely to precede changes in stock valuations.

Perspectives on the Capabilities for the Selection of Strategic Projects

2020

Strategic projects are large scale, complex, and require significant investments and resources. These projects aim at gaining long-term social and economic benefits. Therefore, organizations focusing on strategic projects should use a consistent approach that suits their strategy, capability, and long-term expectations. Based on the four research questions and content analysis of the literature, generic processes used for the strategic project selection in tandem with the managerial capabilities are identified in this paper. The generic processes and managerial capabilities are used to develop a generic framework for strategic project selection. The framework is used for literature analysis in the paper. The review shows that both qualitative and quantitative methods are used for strategic project selection. Some possible research directions have also been proposed at the end of the review. The paper provides value to both researchers and practitioners in terms of tools available and a guidance on project selection through a structured process framework.
