This research aims to examine managerial preferences in the resource allocation process. This research used an experimental method to test whether resource availability, stakeholder claims, and managers’ affiliations to stockholders can influence the decision-making process of resource allocation. The results show that resource availability, stakeholder claims, and managers’ affiliation could influence the resource allocation process. The results of the research contribute to several things. The first is to show that stakeholder theory can test managerial preferences at the individual level. Secondly, the resources distribution is influenced by behavioral factors associated with normative stakeholder theory.

This chapter discusses what individual justice means in the realm of administrative justice. The standards of justice and fairness that apply in administrative decision-making need consideration from the perspective of the service user. Should the administrative justice system serve the citizen or the state? What role do individual service users have in the design, use, and evaluation of more bureaucratic systems of redress? Different notions of justice, as they relate to primary decision-making processes, have been described through various models. This chapter provides a set of tools with which to study the subject and argues for the importance of user voice and perceptions of fairness in the provision of a more citizen-focussed justice.

The traditional mass diffusion recommendation algorithm only relies on the user’s object collection relationship, resulting in poor recommendation performance for users with small purchases (i.e., small-degree user), and it is difficult to balance the accuracy and diversity of the recommendation system. This paper introduces the trust relationship into the resource allocation process of the traditional mass diffusion algorithm and proposes the Dual Wing Mass Diffusion model (DWMD), which constructs a dual wing graph based on trust relationships and object collection relationships. Implicit trust is mined according to the network structure of the trust relationship and integrated into the resource allocation process, and then merging the positive effects of object reputation on a recommendation through tunable scaling parameters. The user controls the tunable scaling parameter to achieve the best recommendation performance. The experimental results show that the DWMD method significantly improves diversity and novelty while ensuring high accuracy and effectively improves the accuracy and diversity balance. The improved recommendation performance for small-degree users proves that the trust relationship can effectively alleviate the generalized cold start problem of the recommendation algorithm for users who collect a small number of objects.

This paper presents a systematic review of empirical research on cybersecurity issues. 14 empirical articles about cybersecurity, published in the two top IS journals, MISQ (12) and ISR (2), between 2008 and 2017, were selected and analyzed, classified into three categories: individual level (non-work setting), employee level (work setting), and organization level (policy/regulation environment). This paper provides a holistic picture of cybersecurity issues, for instance, fundamental theories, impressive research methods, and influencing factors. More importantly, for the first time an integrative framework was developed by R Project, which potentially text-mines end-users’ behaviors and decision-making processes toward cybersecurity under the circumstance of security breach. Some explanations of extant empirical study and potential research are addressed and discussed as well.

This paper examines Howard's (1963) typology dividing decision making into extensive problem solving (ESP), limited problem solving (LSP), and routinized response behavior (RRB). Specifically, the amount of information accessed in a longitudinal experiment is studied. Information acquisition is modeled stochastically at the individual level, and the existence of two segments (LSP and RRB) is tested in a nested-model framework.

Objectives: Investigate the relationship between thoughtfully reflective decision-making (TRDM) and computer-focused cyber deviance involvement and computer-focused cybercrime victimization. Method: Survey data collected from samples of 1,039 employees and 418 students at a large private university were analyzed using ordinary least squares and negative binomial regression to test the effects of TRDM on computer-focused cyber deviance involvement and victimization. Results: TRDM reduces computer-focused cyber deviance involvement and computer-focused cybercrime victimization across measures and samples. The sensitivity analyses also indicated that TRDM is a more robust predictor of cyber deviance involvement than victimization. The results from moderation analyses showed that, whereas protective effects of TRDM are invariant across genders, they are less salient among older employees for the scenario-based measure of cybercrime victimization. Conclusions: Individual-level cognitive decision-making processes are important in predicting computer-focused cyber deviance involvement and victimization. These results can inform the development of targeted institutional and criminal justice policies aimed at reducing computer-focused cybercrime.

This article reviews the theories and literature in intrahousehold financial decisions, spousal partners and financial decision making, family system and financial decision process, children, and financial decisions. The article draws conclusions from the literature review and discusses directions for future research and educational programs. Most financial education and counseling takes place at the individual level, whereas financial decisions take place at household and intrahousehold levels. Family members, spouses/partners, children, and others play a key role in individuals’ financial decisions. The article proposes the key programmatic implications for financial professionals and educators that need to be integrated into financial education and counseling. Understanding the unique dynamics of family financial decision making would help create effective educational and counseling strategies for the whole families.
