In this paper, firms are considered on the hypothesis of having incomplete rationality expectation and incomplete information of the market to get the dynamic development of price competition behavior in the Hotelling model (Hotelling, 1929). Under the assumption of the heterogeneous...

In this paper, we construct dynamic models on the basis of constant conjectural variation. Duopolists with dynamic adjustment behavior of bounded rationality have been considered. Numerical simulation is used to illustrate the complexion of models. The existence of equilibrium points and their...

Informed by social exchange theory and social identity theory, we developed a conceptual model that examines the mediating role of organizational identification in the relationship between employees’ perceptions of organizational context and their job attitudes. In our model, the antecedents...

Workplace procedural justice is an important motivator for employee work attitude and performance. This research examines how procedural justice affects employee engagement. We developed three propositions. First, based on the group engagement model, we hypothesized that procedural justice...

On the basis of ERBR (existing residential building retrofit) work in the 11th five-year period, energy efficiency retrofits for old residential buildings have been further promoted in northern regions of China during the 12th five-year period. ERBR projects are capable of not only achieving...

type="main" xml:lang="en" <p>We estimate the effect of minimum wages on employment using the Master Files of the Canadian Labour Force Survey over the recent period 1997–2008. Particular attention is paid to the differences between permanent and temporary minimum wage workers—an important...</p>

We estimate the effect of minimum wages on poverty for Canada using data from the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) for 1997 to 2007 and find that minimum wages do not have a statistically significant effect on poverty and this finding is robust across a number of specifications. Our...

Using longitudinal data from the British Household Panel Survey, the authors examine how individuals' employment compensation—salaried or hourly—affects their decisions to trade time for money. Results indicate that there is a positive association between hourly wages and a desire...

The authors investigate how both the amount and source of income affects the importance placed on money using a longitudinal analysis of the British Household Panel Survey and evidence from two laboratory experiments. Larger amounts of money received for labor were associated with individuals...
