Humanitarian relief operations rarely proceed smoothly and disruptions as, e.g., the outbreak of an epidemic or aftershocks, are common. Such situations are known as overlapping disasters. Relief organizations have to deal with the disruptions while at the same time the ongoing relief operation...

Regulators need a method that is versatile, is easy to use and can handle complex path models with latent (not directly observable) variables. In a first application of partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) in financial stress testing, we demonstrate how PLS-SEM can be...

This study explores how environmental knowledge and risk perception influence individuals' sustainable consumption behavior through the mediation of environmental concern and behavioral intention. The study combines constructs from earlier studies to form a novel theoretical model, which is...
