“…Positive dimensions focus on the question “In general, do you think that most people can be trusted?”. Negative dimensions focus on the view that “Others will find ways to take advantage of you if you are not careful” [ 24 , 25 ]. For the first question, if an individual’s score exceeds the median, it indicates a certain level of social trust; if it is below the median, it indicates a lack of social trust.…”

Social trust is derived from the interaction of environmental and social factors, which has important significance for the sustainable development of society and social governance. In particular, in the post-pandemic era, tourist activity will receive special attention in terms of its role in the development of the public’s social trust. On the basis of the sample of big data, this research takes China as an example to study the influences of different geographical and environmental elements on individuals’ social trust as well as the common role played by the tourist activity. The research showed that the geographical environment and tourism activities have interacting effects on public social trust. This influencing mechanism is specifically manifested as the rice-growing ratio and tourist reception level can have interacting effects on the social trust of the residents in a tourist destination; pathogen stress and tourist supply level can exert interacting effects on the social trust of the residents in an area from which tourists originate; and economic development and tourist reception level can have interacting effects on the social trust of the residents in a tourist destination. By doing so, this research provides theoretical support and practical suggestions for the recovery of the public’s social trust from the perspective of tourism geography in the post-pandemic era.

“…Previous studies have shown that regional social trust can restrain managers' opportunistic behavior, thus limiting excess perquisite consumption (Dong et al, 2021). Hence, we controlled regional social trust , which is derived from the National General Social Survey (CGSS) 1, a nationwide and comprehensive academic survey project (Deng & Yu, 2021). During the sample period, the CGSS conducted six surveys in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, and 2017.…”

This study examines the impact of returnee executives on top management teams' (TMTs') unethical management behavior (e.g., excess perquisite consumption).Synthesizing insights from upper echelons theory and the psychological entitlement literature, this study proposes that returnee executives cause TMTs to generate a high degree of psychological entitlement, which subsequently leads to a high degree of excess perquisite consumption in their firms. In addition, this study proposes that returnee chief executive officers, product diversification, and regional institutional development moderate the aforementioned relationships by influencing managerial discretion. This study provides empirical evidence for the above view using a dataset that was constructed based on 1960 listed Chinese manufacturing companies from 2010 to 2019. From a psychological entitlement perspective, this study confirms, for the first time, that the introduction of returnee executives may have unintended negative consequences, for example, in promoting the excess perquisite consumption activities of TMTs.

“…To verify the above inference, referring to Deng et al (2022) and Deng and Yu (2021) [ 93 , 94 ], we introduce a variable of regional trust (Trust) and measure it based on the survey data of relevant issues from the Chinese General Social Survey. According to the median value of Trust, we divide this study's total samples into two groups: the higher regional trust (H-Trust) and the lower regional trust (L-Trust).…”
