However, in spite of this, social entrepreneurship is still a misunderstood phenomenon, challenged by competing definitions and conceptual frameworks, gaps in the research literature, and limited empirical data (Mair & Marti, 2006; Nicholls, 2006). As Cukier, Trenholm, Carl and Gekas (2011) show, the available studies about social entrepreneurship lack for consistency in definitions and the objects of focus, as well as for rigorous comparative analysis. In a content analysis of 567 unique articles concerning ‘social entrepreneur’ or ‘social entrepreneurship’, the authors highlight the existing overlapping between and among different levels of analysis, including studies of individuals (micro), studies of organisations and processes (meso), and broader stud- ies of the economic, political and societal context (macro). They also found that the majority of the journal articles focused are more theoretically grounded than empirically based. Referring to its meaning, definitions of Social Entrepreneurship are often vague, covering a wide variety of activities and representing different models worldwide (Hoogendoon & Hartog, 2011; Kerlin, 2009; Nicholls & Cho, 2006). The multiplicity of actors involved in innovative and social activi- ties, as well as the variety of motives which lie upon their adoption (Baccarani & Pedrollo, 2015) also improve the complexity of the phenomenon. Therefore, the need for a better understand- ing of social innovation processes in different contexts (e.g. Canestrino, Bonfanti, & Oliaee, 2015) was elicited, thus the present call for articles was announced. According to the above considerations, this special issue includes two sections, namely the Thematic Articles and Other Articles . s. The Thematic Articles section consist of five arti- cles. In the first article Marieshka Barton, Renata Schaefer and Sergio Canavati ask the ques- tion whether to be or not to be a social entrepreneur, and investigate the process of moti- vational needs influencing the intent

  • Case Studies in Research Misconduct and Human Subjects
    Rules of the Road for those Conducting Federally Funded or Regulated Research: Case Studies in Research Misconduct and Human Subjects April 2, 2019 University of Maryland School of Medicine Baltimore, MD Robert P. Charrow General Counsel United States Department of Health and Human Services Introduction The materials that follow address three areas-misconduct in science, human subjects and privacy, and financial conflicts of interest. To help illustrate the application of the rules that pertain in each area, a number of hypothetical case studies are presented. You should read and be prepared to discuss each case study during the April 2 lecture. The government regulates research under two authorities. First, it regulates research that it funds. How much does the federal government spend annually on research? See Table 2. Second, a federal agency can regulate research on products that fall within its jurisdiction. Thus, by way of example, the Food and Drug Administration asserts jurisdiction over clinical drug trials even though those trials are privately funded. 1. Misconduct A. What is Research Misconduct? The Public Health Service ("PHS"), which includes NIH, defines "research misconduct" as follows: Research misconduct means fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism in proposing, performing, or reviewing research, or in reporting research results. (a) Fabrication is making up data or results and recording or reporting them. (b) Falsification is manipulating research materials, equipment, or processes, or changing or omitting data or results such that the research is not accurately represented in the research record. (c) Plagiarism is the appropriation of another person's ideas, processes, results, or words without giving appropriate credit.

Keywords Research integrity, fraud, scientific conduct, scientific values, public trust Writing about research integrity and fraud in the midst of the Covid-19 crisis carries an extra sense of urgency. Voices of reason tell us to trust the experts, echoing both the (idealized) scientific method and Ronald Reagan’s response to Soviet promises regard- ing nuclear disarmament: “trust, but verify.” Great advice, but how easy is it really to identify trustworthy experts? Is the boundary between healthy skepticism and manufac- tured doubt a simple matter of distinguishing between valid laboratory and publishing protocols on one side and political, economic, or personal interests on the other? Should we follow those who rely on the Mertonian distinction between norm-bound

TESTS OF TWO INTERVENTIONS ABSTRACT We tested whether we could teach individuals to behave more charismatically, and whether changes in charisma affected leader outcomes. In Study 1, a mixed-design field experiment, we randomly assigned 34 middle-level managers to a control or an experimental group. Three months later, we reassessed the managers using their co-worker ratings (Time 1 raters = 343; Time 2 raters = 321). In Study 2, a within-subjects laboratory experiment, we videotaped 41 MBA participants giving a speech. We then taught them how to behave more charismatically and they redelivered the speech six weeks later; independent assessors (n = 135) rated the speeches.

  • On Making Causal Claims a Review and Recommendations.Pdf
    The Leadership Quarterly 21 (2010) 1086–1120 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect The Leadership Quarterly journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/leaqua On making causal claims: A review and recommendations John Antonakis ⁎, Samuel Bendahan, Philippe Jacquart, Rafael Lalive Faculty of Business and Economics, University of Lausanne, Switzerland article info abstract Keywords: Social scientists often estimate models from correlational data, where the independent variable Causality has not been exogenously manipulated; they also make implicit or explicit causal claims based on Quasi-experimentation these models. When can these claims be made? We answer this question by first discussing design Instrumental variables and estimation conditions under which model estimates can be interpreted, using the randomized Common-method bias experiment as the gold standard. We show how endogeneity – which includes omitted variables, Difference-in-differences omitted selection, simultaneity, common-method variance, and measurement error – renders Simultaneous equations Monte Carlo simulations estimates causally uninterpretable. Second, we present methods that allow researchers to test Regression discontinuity causal claims in situations where randomization is not possible or when causal interpretation Mediation could be confounded; these methods include fixed-effects panel, sample selection, instrumental variable, regression discontinuity, and difference-in-differences models. Third, we take stock of the methodological rigor with which causal claims are being made in a social sciences discipline by reviewing a representative sample of 110 articles on leadership published in the previous 10 years in top-tier journals. Our key finding is that researchers fail to address at least 66% and up to 90% of design and estimation conditions that make causal claims invalid.

  • Leadership to Defeat COVID-19 John Antonakis Faculty of Business And
    Leadership to defeat COVID-19 John Antonakis Faculty of Business and Economics University of Lausanne Lausanne, CH-1015 Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Accepted for publication: Group Processes & Intergroup Relations 24.11.2020 Abstract Defeating COVID-19 will not happen only via efforts of scientists working on vaccines or new treatments and interventions. Key to winning this battle is to convince citizens to take the needed precautions and to follow scientific advice to stop the spread of the virus and to protect those who are vulnerable to it. Thus, leaders, especially political leaders, play a critical role in coordinating the efforts of individuals who often have private interests to act as they wish, but who expect to benefit from the efforts of others who contribute to the public good. To deal with this unprecedented challenge, I discuss the importance of leadership—particularly charismatic leadership—which is well suited to solving problems in situations of ambiguity and crisis. I also exhort researchers to pay more attention to studying leadership using robust and causally identified-designs that can inform policy. Keywords: COVID-19; leadership; charisma; science; endogeneity In the beginning of 2020, it felt like the planet was put in a big dark box, then pummeled by an invisible, invincible enemy. Nobody has escaped the consequences of COVID-19, which has had a dramatic impact on the world economy, our social functioning, and our health. We see a substantial portion of the world’s population reigned by confusion, fear, and despair; yet, many of our world’s co-citizens display an inexplicable and unabashed—even cavalier—attitude toward the virus and its consequences.

  • On the Economic Value of Charismatic Leadership
    “Just Words? Just Speeches?” On The Economic Value of Charismatic Leadership John Antonakis (University of Lausanne) Giovanna d’Adda (Politecnico di Milano) Roberto Weber (University of Zurich) Christian Zehnder (University of Lausanne) This version: August 2015 Abstract Despite the importance attributed to leadership in many economic, organizational and political contexts, the topic has received little attention in the economic discipline. In other fields, however, extensive research documents important characteristics of effective leaders, including the ability to influence followers through "charismatic" communication. We report a field experiment that examines whether charisma—in the form of a stylistically different motivation speech—can induce costly effort among workers, and therefore generate higher output for a firm. In our experiment temporary workers have to prepare envelopes for a fundraising campaign conducted on behalf of a hospital. Workers are exposed to speeches that differ in the number of charismatic elements, as well as to varying financial incentives. We observe that workers who are exposed to a charismatic speech increase their output on average by about 17% relative to the workers who receive the standard speech. This performance effect of charisma is statistically significant and comparable in size to the positive effect of standard performance pay. Key words: Field experiment, charisma, work performance, incentives, leadership JEL-Codes: C93, D03, D23, M12, M52 1 Introduction Leadership has long held allure as a potentially powerful influence on human behavior. From Plato’s discussion of the importance of “philosopher kings” to modern research and training in management and politics—and throughout history in the arts—leadership is valued as a powerful tool for effecting collective activity.

Achieving a High Level of Protection from Pesticides in Europe: Problems with the Current Risk Assessment Procedure and Solutions Claire ROBINSON* , Christopher J. PORTIER**, Aleksandra ČAVOŠKI***, Robin MESNAGE****, Apolline ROGER*****, Peter CLAUSING******, Paul WHALEY*******, Hans MUILERMAN******** and https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms Angeliki LYSSIMACHOU********* The regulation of pesticides in the European Union (EU) relies on a network of hard law (legislation and implementing acts) and soft law (non-legally binding guidance documents and administrative and scientific practices). Both hard and soft laws govern how risk assessments are conducted, but a significant role is left to the latter. Europe’s pesticide regulation is one of the most stringent in the world. Its stated objectives are to ensure an independent, objective and transparent assessment of pesticides and achieve a high level of protection for health and environment. However, a growing body of evidence shows that pesticides that have passed through this process and are authorised for use may harm , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at humans, animals and the environment. The authors of the current paper – experts in toxicology, law and policy – identified shortcomings in the authorisation process, focusing on the EU assessment of the pesticide active substance glyphosate. The shortcomings mostly consist of failures to implement the hard or soft laws. But in some instances the law itself is responsible, as some provisions can only fail to achieve its objectives. Ways to improve the system are proposed, requiring changes in hard and soft laws as well as in administrative 30 Sep 2021 at 13:44:58 and scientific practices.

We examined if the relation between intelligence (IQ) and perceived leadership might be more accurately described by a curvilinear single-peaked function. Following Simonton’s (1985) theory, we tested a specific model, indicating that the optimal IQ for perceived leadership will appear at about 1.2 standard deviations above the mean IQ of the group membership.

    Combating COVID-19 with Charisma: Evidence on Governor Speeches and Physical Distancing in the United States Ulrich Thy Jensen†, Dominic Rohner*°, Olivier Bornet‡, Daniel Carron‡, Phillip Garner‡, Dimitra Loupi‡, and John Antonakis* † School of Public Affairs, Arizona State University, United States & Crown Prince Frederik Center for Public Leadership, Aarhus University, Denmark ‡ Idiap Research Institute, Switzerland * Faculty of Business and Economics (HEC Lausanne), University of Lausanne & E4S ° Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) 1 Combating COVID-19 with Charisma: Evidence on Governor Speeches and Physical Distancing in the United States We show that governor charisma can affect individual behavior to help mitigate COVID-related outcomes. We provide evidence in the field using deep neural ratings of charisma of US governor speeches over time to explain physical distancing based on anonymized data from smart phones. The effect of charisma in the field was generally robust, had increased physical distancing, and was not bounded by state-level political ideology of the citizens; however, Republican governors high on average charisma and with a charismatic speech impacted distancing more relative to Democrat governors high on average charisma. Complementing the field data, we also show in an incentivized laboratory experiment that individuals who are conservative are more likely to believe that their co-citizens will physically distance; these beliefs in turn drive their preference to physically distance. The experimental evidence show that liberals are unaffected by charisma, as a result of their preference to physically distance regardless. These findings are important because they show that a learnable skill—or at least one that can be honed—can give leaders an additional weapon to complement policy interventions for pandemics, especially with certain populations who may need a “nudge,” and hence save lives.

Although students do not publish in predatory journals, both plagiarism and predatory publishing fall under the umbrella of academic integrity and scholarly ethics. Academic misconduct has many faces, ranging from student cheating on exams to purchasing a doctoral thesis and claiming it as one’s own work. Some forms of academic misconduct, such as the examples above are always intentional. However, many manifestations of academic misconduct are less clearly intentional. Students often plagiarize unintentionally because they lack writing skills including paraphrasing and citing. Faculty sometimes publish with predatory journals when they lack scholarly publishing knowledge. Weak information literacy underpins both behaviors. However, other factors drive both plagiarism and predatory publishing. Three broad areas are cultural considerations, generational differences, and local academic values. The discourse related to cultural considerations is especially fruitful to unpack.
