“…However, in some cases decision makers are confused as whether this factor is an input or an output. Therefore, a model is needed to determine the status of the factor for each DMU, separately (Farzipoor Saen, 2011). Similar research can be repeated for customer's evaluation in the presence of dual-role factors.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to propose a data envelopment analysis (DEA) method for customers' evaluation. Design/methodology/approach -This paper introduces a variable return to scale (VRS) cross-efficiency (one of the DEA models) to evaluate customers. This new model can consider ratio values and give a complete ranking of customers. Findings -It is found that the proposed model can evaluate customers in a multi criteria context; does not demand weights from the decision maker; and can consider both the ratio and absolute numbers. An aggressive form of the VRS model is formulated to evaluate the peer-appraisal value of customers instead of self-appraisal. Originality/value -To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no reference that uses cross-efficiency model with the ratio values for customers' evaluation.

“…For legal practices like this, reputational reaction becomes important in implementing penalties on managers. However, despite a large amount of research on reputational penalties (Farzipoor Saen, 2011;Boivie et al, 2015;Busenbark et al, 2016;Zorn et al, 2017;Love et al, 2017), the attribution process and the broader governance context introduce complexities that have not been clarified. The difference of attribution has been emphasized in recent work, which presents new topics, such as the elements that affect the attribution process and cultural differences affecting conceptualization.…”

Slap or clap? Impact of controversial governance practice on media coverage

Purpose This study aims to examine the impact of controversial governance practices on media coverage under a specific context. Based on the attribution theory, this study develops a theoretical framework to explore how antecedent factors can influence attribution process under a particular cultural context. Design/methodology/approach This paper presents a behavioral view of the media and corporate governance to demonstrate how media attributes different reasons for the same controversial governance practice in Chinese-specific context. Using 1,198 non-state-owned listed company observations in China as the study sample, cross-section data are used to build a multiple linear regression mode to test hypotheses. Findings The analysis indicates that the media imposes fewer penalties on founder-CEO firms than on non-founder-CEO firms for engaging in controversial governance practices, such as CEO compensation. CEO tenure negatively moderates the effect of CEO compensation on negative media coverage in non-founder-CEO firms. The positive media bias evidence for founder-CEO firms exists only when the firm is better performed. Social implications This study’s contribution to the governance literature starts with its logical reasoning of basic assumptions in the agency theory, and that media penalty will arise when managers impose actions that against interests of shareholders or other stakeholders. This study shows that the rule is not always true. The findings also bridge the connection of governance literature and reputation literature to better explain how media can act as a social arbitration role. Originality/value This study provides insights into how belief and information of reputational evaluators affect attribution consequences on controversial governance practices. Moreover, this study looks beyond the internal elements and focuses on China’s traditional cultural context as well. Specifically, the authors concentrate on the attribution process by showing the importance of evaluators’ framing tendency with regard to controversial practices. The results extend the knowledge about how conformity makes media coverage shows a bias effect on interactions during the evaluation process.

Media selection in the presence of flexible factors and imprecise data

Abstract: This paper depicts the media selection problem through a Data envelopment analysis (DEA) model, while allowing for the incorporation of both flexible factors and imprecise data. A numerical example demonstrates the application of the proposed method.
