Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to advocate the use of processual rather than the common variance‐theoretic approaches to the study of groups and organizational processes. There is a proliferation of paradigms and a lack of cumulation in organization science. This paper argues that...

Purpose – In this two‐part series, this paper seeks to consider certain intriguing aspects of randomness, the basic mathematical concept used to model financial risk and other unknown quantities in the physical world. Design/methodology/approach – Part 1 applies concepts from quantum...

We analyze the effect of a colored non Gaussian noise on a model of a random walker moving along a ratchet potential. Such a model was motivated by the transport properties of motor proteins, like kinesin and myosin. Previous studies have been realized assuming white noises. However, for real...
