Abstract

Previous studies on the effect of subsidiary staffing on subsidiary performance have examined the relationship between the two variables at certain points in time. These studies demonstrate that subsidiaries with more (or fewer) parent country nationals (PCNs) tend to demonstrate higher performance. However, these studies do not fully analyze whether the performance of a focal subsidiary improves by increasing (or decreasing) the number of PCNs assigned to the subsidiary. To answer this research question, this study addresses the way in which changes in a focal subsidiary’s staffing affect the subsidiary’s performance. It analyzes a panel dataset consisting of 11,286 observations of foreign subsidiaries owned by multinational corporations. This study demonstrates that a change in the deployment of PCNs has a U-shaped relationship with subsidiary performance, and the curve indicates that the performance of a focal subsidiary improves by both increasing and decreasing the deployment of PCNs. This study also finds that the slope of the U-shaped curve is flatter in institutionally distant host countries than in institutionally similar countries. This finding indicates that institutional differences between the host and home countries diminish the positive effect of increasing and decreasing the deployment of PCNs.

Abstract

We report a new design strategy for an excited‐state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) fluorophore that can be used in acidic media. A photobasic pyridine‐centered donor‐acceptor‐donor‐type fluorophore is combined with a basic trialkylamine "strap". In the presence of an acid, protonation occurs predominantly at the amine moiety in the ground state. A single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of a pre‐organized intramolecular hydrogen‐bonded structure between the resulting ammonium moiety and the pyridine ring. Upon excitation, the intramolecular charge‐transfer transition increases the basicity of the pyridine moiety in the excited state, resulting in proton transfer from the amine to the pyridine moiety. Consequently, the fluorophore takes on a polymethine‐dye character in the ESIPT state, which gives rise to significantly red‐shifted emission with an increased fluorescence quantum yield.

78. The Dominant Practice for Foreign Subsidiary Staffing and the Subsidiary Performance

Author

Subjects
isomorphism, subsidiary performance, legitimacy, foreign subsidiary staffing, institutional distance
Abstract

This study examines whether isomorphic behavior by multinational corporations positively or negatively affect the performance of foreign subsidiaries. Although previous studies find that multinational corporations have a tendency to mimic practices adopted by other firms, the financial consequences of mimetic behavior remains uncovered. This study addresses multinational corporations' isomorphic behavior regarding foreign subsidiary staffing and hypothesizes the relationship between the imitation of the dominant practice for subsidiary staffing and the subsidiary performance. The panel dataset consisting of 3,284 foreign subsidiaries of multinational corporations are used to test the hypotheses. The results obtained from a fixed effect model indicate that the imitation of the dominant practice adopted in the host country negatively affects the subsidiary performance. This study also finds that the negative relationship between mimetic behavior and subsidiary performance becomes greater as the institutional distance between the host country and the home country increases. The results of this study suggest that isomorphic behavior in pursuit of legitimacy is accompanied by the loss of efficiency.

Abstract

BackgroundVariants in the type IV collagen gene (COL4A1/2) cause early-onset cerebrovascular diseases. Most individuals are diagnosed postnatally, and the prenatal features of individuals with COL4A1/2variants remain unclear.MethodsWe examined COL4A1/2in 218 individuals with suspected COL4A1/2-related brain defects. Among those arising from COL4A1/2variants, we focused on individuals showing prenatal abnormal ultrasound findings and validated their prenatal and postnatal clinical features in detail.ResultsPathogenic COL4A1/2variants were detected in 56 individuals (n=56/218, 25.7%) showing porencephaly (n=29), schizencephaly (n=12) and others (n=15). Thirty-four variants occurred de novo (n=34/56, 60.7%). Foetal information was available in 47 of 56 individuals, 32 of whom (n=32/47, 68.1%) had one or more foetal abnormalities. The median gestational age at the detection of initial prenatal abnormal features was 31 weeks of gestation. Only 14 individuals had specific prenatal findings that were strongly suggestive of features associated with COL4A1/2variants. Foetal ventriculomegaly was the most common initial feature (n=20/32, 62.5%). Posterior fossa abnormalities, including Dandy-Walker malformation, were observed prenatally in four individuals. Regarding extrabrain features, foetal growth restriction was present in 16 individuals, including eight individuals with comorbid ventriculomegaly.ConclusionsPrenatal observation of ventriculomegaly with comorbid foetal growth restriction should prompt a thorough ultrasound examination and COL4A1/2gene testing should be considered when pathogenic variants are strongly suspected.

Abstract

This study aims to find factors that increase the level of interorganizational trust. Although previous studies emphasize structural aspects or initial conditions of alliances, this current study focuses on interactions held after the alliances are established. Specifically, joint decision-making, bargaining power, cultural adaptation, and conflict resolution strategy are a focus in this study. Using data collected from 76 international joint ventures established by Korean and Japanese firms, an empirical study is conducted. The results show that perceived fairness for the joint decision-making process, satisfactory distribution of bargaining power, and an effort to understand and adapt to a partner’s culture work to enhance the level of interorganizational trust. In contrast, the use of formal contracts for conflict resolution has a negative impact on the level of interorganizational trust.

Subjects
job orientation, undergraduates, self-evaluated competence, four-year follow-up
Abstract

This longitudinal study was conducted to understand the socialization process of undergraduates (Yoshida et al., 1999). Seventy one freshmen majoring in education joined in this study until the end of their senior year. Questionnaires to measure some aspects of their socialization process were administered to them frequently for four years. In this paper, with regard to career orientation, we reported how their job orientation and self-evaluated competence (Wakabayashi et al., 1987) had changed. We also showed that the students who chose to work after graduation and the students who wanted to go on to graduate school had been consistently distinguished by their job orientation and self-evaluated competence since their first year of university., 国立情報学研究所で電子化したコンテンツを使用している。

Abstract

Social annoyance was defined as any behavior which may bother, annoy, or irritate others, usually occurring between strangers (Saito, 1999; Yoshida et al., 1999). The purpose of this study was to investigate social annoyance from a cognitive perspective. Ninety seven subjects were asked to indicate their attitudes towards seven annoying behaviors and to describe the reasons why they think so. They were also asked to estimate how many people have the similar attitudes to their own. The main findings were as follows : (1) content analyses of the reasons revealed four categories; "self", "others", "society", and "rules"; (2) perception of social annoyance was negatively retated to the references to "self", and positively related to references to "others", "society", and "rules"; (3) perception of social annoyance was positively related to their estimate of the amount of people who similarly feel annoyance., 国立情報学研究所で電子化したコンテンツを使用している。

Abstract

In order to effectively plan for and induce a drastically improved higher education program, it is essential to examine the socialization process of undergraduates. The purpose of this study was to investigate adjustment as a socialization process through a longitudinal study spanning the undergraduate program. Questionnaires were administered to 71 undergraduates majoring in education. In this article, we report the changes in attitude toward learning, acquisition of social skills, gaining life event experiences, changes in self-evaluated competence, and evaluation of job aptitude from freshman through sophomore years. The principal findings were that : first, subjects generally held a better image of psychology than education, although while the latter remained constant, the former declined with time. Furthermore, while the tendency to favor a special subject decreased, subjects came to place more importance to part-time job and travel. Consistently, throughout the period interpersonal relationships were regarded as most important. Second, freshman gained many life event experiences, but there was much variance in these experiences for sophomores. There was also found a positive correlation between the social skills of interpersonal sensibility and gained events. Third, self-evaluated competence produced 3 factors labeled competence, interpersonal harmony and trustworthiness. Finally, the relationship between self-evaluated competence and evaluated job aptitude was discussed., 国立情報学研究所で電子化したコンテンツを使用している。
