▼ Genetics differs from other branches of medicine because of the omnipresent and substantial role familial obligation plays throughout the entire genetic testing and disclosure decision-making process. Genetic information may be considered unique from other kinds of health information because it may reveal personal information about one’s likelihood of certain medical conditions and information about one’s genetic relatives (Annas, Glantz, & Roche, 1995). This thesis uses the disclosure decision-making model (DD-MM, Greene, 2009) as the framework to investigate the factors that predict young adults’ decision to disclose genetic test results to a family member. Notably, the DD-MM has never been tested with genetic disclosures. Further, I challenge the assumptions in the DD-MM (and other existing models of decision disclosures) that disclosures are driven solely by self-interested motives, which is predominantly considered as the desire to seek social support. I propose that familial obligation also motivates disclosure, and investigate how a person’s reason for disclosure—wanting social support versus familial obligation due to risk relevance— affects the disclosure decision-making process. One hundred seventy-three (N =173) young adults were recruited to report on their hypothetical disclosure experience regarding the genetic health condition, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD). Participants were asked to imagine that they had undergone diagnostic testing and learned that they had a genetic mutation associated with AATD. They were then asked to specify a family member to refer to when completing the scales to measure DD-MM variables, which are used to predict their likelihood of sharing their results with a genetic relative. Participants were asked to report on the degree to which their disclosure decision is motivated by social support and familial obligation. Results indicate that the DD-MM translates to the genetic context and significantly predicts disclosure likelihood. Specific key mechanisms (i.e., a more serious prognosis and more anticipated instrumental support) were significant factors determining disclosure likelihood in the full model, but changed when sub-samples were created based on motive for disclosure. Results show familial obligation is present as a reason for disclosure and that social support does not fully explain the results of the DD-MM.

▼ La pérdida de privacidad se está convirtiendo en uno de los mayores problemas en el mundo de la informática. De hecho, la mayoría de los usuarios de Internet (que hoy en día alcanzan la cantidad de 2 billones de usuarios en todo el mundo) están preocupados por su privacidad. Estas preocupaciones también se trasladan a las nuevas ramas de la informática que están emergiendo en los ultimos años. En concreto, en esta tesis nos centramos en la privacidad en los Sistemas Multiagente. En estos sistemas, varios agentes (que pueden ser inteligentes y/o autónomos) interactúan para resolver problemas. Estos agentes suelen encapsular información personal de los usuarios a los que representan (nombres, preferencias, tarjetas de crédito, roles, etc.). Además, estos agentes suelen intercambiar dicha información cuando interactúan entre ellos. Todo esto puede resultar en pérdida de privacidad para los usuarios, y por tanto, provocar que los usuarios se muestren adversos a utilizar estas tecnologías. En esta tesis nos centramos en evitar la colección y el procesado de información personal en Sistemas Multiagente. Para evitar la colección de información, proponemos un modelo para que un agente sea capaz de decidir qué atributos (de la información personal que tiene sobre el usuario al que representa) revelar a otros agentes. Además, proporcionamos una infraestructura de agentes segura, para que una vez que un agente decide revelar un atributo a otro, sólo este último sea capaz de tener acceso a ese atributo, evitando que terceras partes puedan acceder a dicho atributo. Para evitar el procesado de información personal proponemos un modelo de gestión de las identidades de los agentes. Este modelo permite a los agentes la utilización de diferentes identidades para reducir el riesgo del procesado de información. Además, también describimos en esta tesis la implementación de dicho modelo en una plataforma de agentes.

▼ Since the 1990s, academic physicians have been subjected to increased requirements for disclosure in their roles as educators and researchers and for conflict of interest (COI) resolution in their financial relationships with pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotech companies, collectively referred to as industry. The requirements are the result of the convergence of federal regulations, accreditation guidelines, professional and industry codes of ethics and conduct, and institutional policies. The disclosure and COI resolution requirements are managed and resolved by a review of forms and compliance with relevant guidance documents and policies. In the context of this environmental oversight, the purpose of the qualitative study was to explore physicians’ perspectives of how they manage and resolve conflicts of interest in their academic roles of teaching, research, and patient care. Minimal evidence-based research exists in the literature from the physician’s viewpoint. The grounded theory study examined the research question by using an issue-contingent, ethical decision-making theoretical framework from the management literature. The data were collected using a general interview guide that consisted of three sections – general questions regarding purpose and demographics, discussion of three case scenarios (teaching, research, and clinical practice), and finally, general concluding questions to assess the environment that is indicative of the context of the study. The theory emerged from the interview data as a refined theory representing a four-step ethical decision-making process with emphasis on the characteristics of physicians as moral agents. The study’s findings further indicated that bias is a significant concern. The study identified reasons physicians enter into financial relationships with industry, the risks and benefits associated with those relationships, methods for avoiding bias, and the need for healthy academic-industry collaborative research.

A la suite des deux Guerres Mondiales, la considération sociétale du handicap a évoluée. Les Etats ont peu à peu promulgué des lois antidiscriminatoires et mis en place un ensemble de politiques publiques en sa faveur. Pour profiter des politiques publiques établies, il est néanmoins nécessaire que le handicap soit déclaré institutionnellement. Néanmoins, ce processus n’est pas systématique, le handicap étant souvent dissimulé, et ce, dès le cursus d’étude. Dans cette optique, et en nous appuyant sur les théories de la décision, l’objectif de la thèse est de comprendre le fonctionnement de la révélation institutionnelle du handicap des étudiants. Nous avons conduit une étude qualitative, basée sur la conduite d’entretiens semi-directifs, de récits de vie, d’observations participantes et d’analyses de données secondaires. Nos résultats montrent que différentes raisons individuelles et environnementales influent sur la propension à la révélation. Les conséquences de la décision s’analysent en termes de confirmation et de disconfirmation des attentes initiales. La décision se matérialise également par l’adoption de quatre stratégies de révélation.

Following two World Wars, the societal consideration of disability has considerably evolved. Most of countries have implemented national disability policies in order to improve disabled people professional integration. Nevertheless, in order to be part of such policies, disability first needs to be institutionally disclosed. Institutional disclosure is far from being automatic as disability is frequently concealed since university. In this perspective, based on the decision making theories this thesis aims at understanding the institutional disclosure process. We focus on the specific case of students with disabilities. A qualitative study based on semi structured interviews, life story interviews, participant observations and secondary data analysis has been conducted. Our results show that several individual and environmental reasons affect disclosure motivations. The consequences of disclosure can be analyzed in terms of expectancies confirmation and disconfirmation. Finally disclosure follows four distinctive strategies.

Bakgrund och problemdiskussion: Allt fler företag redovisar information kring CSR i sina årsredovisningar. Där en stor del av tidigare studier utgått från att företag använder CSR-redovisningen på ett standardiserat sätt. Vilket kan förklaras av att CSR-standarders framväxt utgör en ram för hur företagen ska rapportera denna information. Samtidigt kan en ökad konkurrens leda till att företagen blir mer benägna att differentiera sig för att uppnå olika fördelar. Studier har även funnit att företagen använder sin CSR-redovisning på ett differentierat sätt. Därför kan det vara intressant att gå i en motsatt riktning gentemot merparten av tidigare studier och undersöka hur företagen kan använda CSR- redovisningen som en strategi. Där företagen kan implementera en viss strategi, genom att utmärka sig i sin CSR-redovisning och förmedla sitt CSR-arbete för sina intressenter på ett visst sätt. Det kan även vara intressant att undersöka hur karaktärsdragen hos företagets beslutsorgan (bolagsstämma, styrelse & Vd) påverkar hur företaget utmärker sig. Då tidigare studier visat att karaktärsdragen har en inverkan till vilka strategiska val ett företag fattar. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att identifiera hur de svenska börsnoterade bolagen väljer att utmärka sig i sin CSR-redovisning och undersöka vilka karaktärsdrag hos företagets beslutsorgan som kan tänkas ligga bakom detta strategiska val. Metod: Studien utgick från en abduktiv forskningsansats, där vi växelvis använt teori och empiri. Detta då dominerande bolagsstyrningsteorier tillsammans med subjektiva bedömningar från företagens årsredovisningar använts för att skapa en förståelse för hur företagen kan utmärka sig med sin CSR-redovisning. Därefter har en statistisk undersökning utförts, där datainsamlingen hämtats ifrån 183 företags årsredovisningar. Detta för att undersöka hur beslutsorganens karaktärsdrag kan kopplas till företagens sätt att utmärka sig i CSR-redovisningen. Resultat och slutsatser: Studien fann att företagen kan utmärka sig i sin CSR-redovisning enligt två olika kategorier, det vinstmaximerande och ansvarsfulla företaget. Det fanns å ena sidan företag som ville framstå mer lönsamt och i större grad fokusera på att tillfredsställa sina aktieägare. Å andra sidan fanns det företag som ville framstå som mer ansvarsfulla, med fokus på att skapa mervärde längs hela värdekedjan. Det visade sig även att karaktärsdragen ägarkoncentration, könsfördelning i styrelse, styrelsestorlek och Vd varaktighet har en inverkan för vilken strategi företagen väljer att utmärka sig enligt.

Background and problem: More and more companies report information about CSR in their annual reports.

Which can be explained by the emergence of CSR- standards which provides a framework for how companies should report this information. At…

▼ In my dissertation, I experimentally examine whether and how the reporting model a firm uses to guide its corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosures can influence managers’ capital allocation decisions. Chapter 1 provides an overview of my research question, why this research question is important, what I predict I will find, and the main results of my experiment. In Chapter 2, I briefly review the CSR literature generally and in accounting specifically, touching particularly on what has catalyzed the recent growth in CSR disclosure, how it influences behavior, and the emerging role of CSR reporting models as well as differences among these models. Two key features that differ among available reporting models are the intended users of the disclosures (e.g., capital providers or all stakeholders) and the disclosure location (e.g., MD&A or Sustainability Report). In Chapter 3, I draw upon research in social psychology on the social contingency model to hypothesize that differences in the intended users and the disclosure location jointly influence the extent to which managers’ capital allocations are weighted toward financial versus social benefits. I also hypothesize that this influence is mediated by how accountable managers feel for financial and social performance. Chapter 4 outlines the experimental design and method I use to test my hypotheses. The results of my experiment and related statistical analyses are reported in Chapters 5 and 6, in which I find support for my predictions across two different participant populations I use as proxies for managers. Specifically, I find that participants allocate capital to social benefits across all conditions, but that their overall allocations are largely driven by financial considerations. That is, they weight financial benefits more heavily than social benefits. However, when the reporting model disconnects CSR disclosure from a more traditional financial reporting setting (i.e., when the CSR disclosures are made to all stakeholders in a Sustainability Report), participants’ weight on financial benefits is reduced. In addition, I find that these results are driven by changes in perceived accountability for both financial and social performance. I also find evidence that the influence of the CSR disclosure location is contingent on whether the disclosure audience’s preferences are perceived to uniformly favor financial benefits. Chapter 7 concludes and reiterates the important implications of my dissertation. Namely, the results of my study help inform standard setters, regulators, stakeholders, and managers about the consequences of alternative CSR reporting models and highlight the potential effects of CSR disclosure standards on stakeholder welfare.

▼ The Information Technology industry is characterized by constant technological changes, fast clock speed, and hypercompetitive markets. A significant part of this fast-moving dynamic is fed by the high rate of new entry in the form of entrepreneurial ventures. In recent decade, digital platforms accelerate these threats from startups by providing financial and marketing resources. While these developments have led to a significant increase in new entry threats faced by incumbent firms, there is little empirical research that has addressed the consequences of these threats on incumbents. This dissertation aims to fill this gap in the literature. In the first essay, I develop and validate an innovative measure of new entry threat. Then, I show that in the presence of new entry threat, firms tend to reduce their investments in innovation systematically. Further, firms that have a diversified product or technology portfolio, operate in industries with strong network effects, or face high levels of technological cumulativeness invest relatively more in R&D when facing greater new entry threats. The second essay focuses on the impact of new entry threat on the operational performance of firms in the IT industry, and studies how features of the incumbents’ board may help moderate the effects of new entry threat. I provide strong empirical evidence for the theoretical predication of the negative relationship between new entry threats and firm performance. I also show that facing high NET, firms with more independent directors are better able to withstand these threats. In the third essay, I examine the influence of new entry threats on the incumbent’s information disclosure in the IT industry. I find evidence consistent with theoretical prediction that high new entry threats faced by the firm indeed leads to a decrease in the incumbent’s information disclosure. Interestingly, I also find the effect is less pronounced in highly concentrated sub-industries, where actual entry barriers are higher, and more pronounced in the software and services sectors, where proprietary information is more vulnerable. Overall, the three essays contribute to the literature by first creating and validating a measure of new entry threats and linking this measure to specific firm-related strategic decisions within the IT industry.

Research in communication reflects an interest in disclosure and information management as processes that are central to relationships and managing health conditions. The literature thus far has identified variables that predict and relate to information management. Several theories highlight disclosure as a complex cognitive process; however, there is no literature that specifically conceptualizes and operationalizes disclosure in terms of behavioral theory, although disclosure fits the definition of a behavior. Disclosure theories currently point to complex processes and models; however, more parsimonious behavioral theory may yield similar or better results. The primary goals of this dissertation are to apply the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) to disclosure behavior; to examine how a parsimonious model, the TRA, fits disclosure behavior; and to compare the TRA with a cognitive decision-making process model, the disclosure decision-making model (DD-MM). To answer these questions, data were collected through an online survey panel with 300 individuals reporting a mental health diagnosis. Participants answered questions about one person who was familiar with their diagnosis, and another person who was unfamiliar with their diagnosis. I created measures specific to TRA variables, including attitudes, subjective norms, and intention, and tailored DD-MM measurement to be specific to mental health for information assessment, receiver assessment, and disclosure efficacy. Hypotheses predicted that both the DD-MM and TRA would explain disclosure and further predicted that the parsimony of the TRA would be advantageous in providing more desirable model fit for disclosure. Results indicate that although both the DD-MM and TRA were effective at predicting disclosure, the TRA provided a better-fitting, more parsimonious model for predicting disclosure behavior. To conclude, theoretical, practical, and measurement implications are discussed as well as future directions for research.

▼ Making decisions in the business environment is arguably the most challenging aspect of managers' yet also the easiest to fail in. Unlike individual decisions managers as agents for their organizations make decisions amidst high levels of ambiguity, incomplete information and mostly under time pressure. These are the very conditions that make managers vulnerable to the volition-undermining potential of decision-generated affect precisely when they are feeling over-extended to deal with such demands. Effective managerial decision making (MDM) involves more than applying a set of individual abilities. Managers face numerous obstacles, failures, and setbacks that often carry perturbing self-evaluative implications as well as social consequences that undermine their self-evaluations in ways that impair good use of their decision making skills (Bandura, 1997). Given the absence of a coherent theoretical framework in the literature the conceptual model of relations put forward attempts to organize and simplify how managers make decisions as agents of their organizations. Most conceptualizations apply oversimplified models that focus attention on one or a few variables, neglect the joint constellations of individual variable factors and the influence of individual self-generated influences as a contributing factor in MDM. As an ex post facto explanatory-predictive study the present research offers evidence of these links among the theoretically relevant constructs in order to formulate an account of their relations in a parsimonious framework that could guide future insights to explain and predict the intentions and direction of managerial decision behaviour. Conceptual research has outpaced empirical research in decision making of managers in organizations. A number of mini-theories exists that focus on a few variables using linear, antecedent-consequence relations with manipulations in laboratory environments that deal with decisions in contexts that are very different to those faced by managers. There is limited research on managers as research participants and empirical findings based on non-managerial samples and students may not generalize to managers in real life decision making. The present research used a non-probability, purposive sample (N = 196) of experienced managers in the Western Cape region of South Africa, all employed in private and public organizations (mean age 38.9 years, SD of 7.49, ethnic black managers constituted 15.8 percent of the sample). As part of the study it was necessary to construct and validate custom indicator measures in an independent pilot study from the same population. The pilot study determined the factor structures of the dimensionality and internal consistency of the custom-designed measures by way of both convergent, as well as, discriminative validity. The exploratory factor (EFA) and internal reliability analyses succeeded to provide both a comprehensive and empirical grasp on the constructs as was defined. Further, analyses of both standardized and custom-designed also…

▼ The term “open production” is frequently used to describe production systems that rely on volunteer participants who are willing to participate, produce, and bear private costs in order to provide a public good. Examples of open production are becoming increasingly common in many industries. What make these productions possible? How may they be sustained in a world of organizations in which the evolutionary products of economic selection are elaborate hierarchical forms of organization? One way to address these questions is to look at how open productions solve problems that are common to all production organizations such as, for example, problems in the division of labor, allocation of tasks, collaboration, coordination, and maintaining balance between inducement and contributions. Under the conditions of extreme decentralization that are the defining feature of open productions, this approach implies a detailed observation of individual problem solving practices. This is the approach I develop in my dissertation. Unlike much of the prior literature on open productions, I deemphasize motivational elements, status-seeking motives, and allocation of property rights issues. I focus instead on actual work practices as revealed by the day-by-day problem solving activities that qualify open productions projects as production organizations despite the absence of formal contractual arrangements to regulate principal-agent relations. What my work adds to the extensive, informative, and well-developed discipline-based explanations that are currently available, is a focus on the emergence of micro-organizational mechanisms through which problem assignment (Chapter 2), problem resolution (Chapter 3), and sustained participation (Chapter 4) are obtained in open productions. In my essays, I draw from organizational sociology and the behavioral theory of the firm to specify models that relate individual problem-solving activities to structured patterns of action through emergent work practices. In the models that I specify and test, I emphasize processes of attention allocation (Chapter 2), repeated collaboration and group diversity (Chapter 3) and identity construction (Chapter 4) as central to our understanding of the dynamics of problem-solving in organizations. One element of novelty in my study is that my research design makes these work practices directly observable at a level of detail, completeness, and precision that was inaccessible in the past. To illustrate the empirical value of the view that I develop I examine problem-solving activities – i.e., bug fixing and code production – within two Free/Open Source Software (F/OSS) projects during their entire life span. Readers of my work will know more about how organizational micro-mechanisms emerge in open productions. Advisors/Committee Members: Alessandro (Dir.).

One of the most significant questions about the nature of brain function is the extent to which brain networks are functionally constrained in terms of the task contexts in which they respond, versus whether their function is highly flexible across contexts (McIntosh, 2000). Thanks to decades of animal and human research, one of the most well defined networks in the brain is the corticostriatal circuit. The finding that dopamine neurons in this circuit respond to mismatches between expectations and outcomes in choice tasks according to a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm (Shultz, 1997) helped orient the field of decision neuroscience towards studying RL type responses in the brain. Nearly all of these kinds of studies necessite choice tasks with concrete outcomes, in which subjects do something and get something, in order to have both expectation and outcome terms for RL modeling. However, far less attention has been paid to choice contexts that are abstract, that is, there are no expectations or outcomes. Additionally, most reward stimuli used to test decision making response are constrained by low dimensionality. This approach has left open several key questions about how the brain responds to abstract, multidimensional choices, and whether this response is modulated by factors such as choice context, subjective value, stimulus valence, and stimulus attributes in a manner that is the same or different from the well characterized response to these factors in concrete contexts. In a series of studies, this dissertation addresses the following unresolved questions: Study 1: How do brain regions associated with reward (e.g. striatum) and value (e.g. prefrontal cortex) respond when people choose amongst stimuli that are abstract and multidimensional? Study 2: How is this response affected by changes in choice context and stimulus valence? Study 3: How do value signals in the brain influence similarity coding of abstract reinforcers?

▼ Throughout the history of psychology, a lively debate has surrounded people’s ability—known as metacognition—to represent, reflect upon, and control their own thoughts. This debate has taken many forms, from questioning whether it is even possible to be both subject and object of observation in the first place, to discussing whether, if so, subjective experience is worth studying experimentally. The cognitive revolution and the associated resurgence in focus on the workings of the so-called black box has brought with it an increased interest in metacognition, its origins and its functions. The research in the present thesis follows in those footsteps and consists of an investigation into the role that metacognition serves during action, analysing two related types of judgments: the feeling of controlling one’s actions and their outcomes, known as sense of agency, and decision confidence. The first half of my research evaluates whether sense of agency impacts performance monitoring and learning. Two experiments failed to identify a role for perceived control in modulating the extent to which people monitor the accuracy of their decisions. However, a second series of experiments found some evidence that being able to choose which action to perform might improve memory, so that both the outcomes and the actions that generated those outcomes are remembered better when choosing to act than when following an instruction. In the second half of the thesis, I report studies using a combination of behavioural, electrophysiological, and computational methods to determine how confidence in the accuracy of one’s actions affects the way feedback is treated during learning. I present data indicating a role for confidence in modulating learning by regulating resource allocation to obtaining and processing feedback. This characteristic of confidence is reflected both in a negative relationship between prior confidence and the amplitude of neural signals associated with attention to feedback, and between confidence and deciding when to invest resources into obtaining further information about the accuracy of one’s actions. Overall, my results suggest that metacognition is not just an epiphenomenon accompanying our actions; rather, it shapes how we make decisions and learn about our environment.

▼ Given the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is involved in tracking consequences from both one's environment and actions, this work attempts to characterize the involved neuronal processes. In the first portion of this thesis, we focus on internally accredited value, namely the value of actions. We recorded the spiking activity from single neurons of two subjects while they performed a task that required them to monitor relationships between their actions and resulting outcomes on a trial-by-trial basis. We contrasted the activity from two brain areas known to have projections to motor areas but different limbic and attentional roles: dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFdl) and medial prefrontal cortex, dorsal to the cingulate sulcus (PFcs). During the epoch after the first action-outcome (AO) association was revealed to the subject, nearly twice as many PFdl neurons encoded the action compared to the outcome. Conversely, more PFcs neurons encoded the outcome as compared to the action. In both brain areas, information about action and outcome were separated in two populations: few neurons encoded action and outcome. When the subjects learned a subsequent AO association, that outcome was encoded relative to the first, i.e., better or worse, rather than as the identity of the outcome, i.e., apple juice or quinine. Again, PFcs had more reward encoding than PFdl at this time. These data support past studies that implicate PFcs in monitoring the value of actions for value-based decision making. The second portion of this work contrasts neuronal representations of AO associations with that of stimulus-outcome (SO) associations. Lesion and imaging studies have suggested that AO encoding relies on PFcs and SO encoding on orbitofrontal cortex (PFo). We hypothesized similar dissociation at the neuronal level. To test this idea, we trained the same two subjects on two tasks, one that relied on AO associations to solve and another that relied on SO associations. The SO task was analogous to the aforementioned AO task, except that pictures, rather than actions, were associated with the delivery of juice rewards. While the subjects performed these tasks, we recorded the neuronal activity from PFcs and PFo. Both areas had neurons encoding stimuli, actions, and outcomes across the tasks. There was only a subtle bias for PFo neurons preferring the SO task. Most notable was the prominent action selectivity in PFo for the action the subject would perform to select his more preferred reward in the SO task. No such bias was seen in the AO task. Collectively, this work implicates PFcs and PFo as key regions in goal-directed behavior given their ability to flexibly represent value as it is attributed to either external cues or internally generated motor actions.

▼ The purpose of this thesis is to better understand how to make good decisions in markets. Decision-making in markets is notoriously hard: a buyer or seller must choose from many possible actions in a stochastic, partially-observable, multi-agent environment, and must make these choices repeatedly over time. To make decisions in practice, buyers and sellers often simplify the problem with abstractions. A common abstraction, central to this thesis, is one in which agents make various predictions about the current and future states of the world, and then optimize with respect to those predictions. But this begs the question: what prediction and optimization abstractions lead to effective decisions? In this thesis, I present case studies in which I designed, implemented, and analyzed performance of autonomous agents in seven particular market domains. These domains include trading agent competitions, simpler auction domains, and real-world online advertising domains. For each market domain, I formalize a game-theoretic (or in some special cases, decision-theoretic) model for making decisions in that domain. I characterize the resulting problem structure that can potentially be exploited by abstractions. I develop autonomous agents specialized for making decisions in each domain, and describe these agents in terms of their prediction and optimization abstractions (and algorithms for solving those abstractions). I demonstrate the effectiveness of these abstractions through empirical game-theoretic analyses, evaluation of TAC tournament performance, and worst-case bounds on regret for making different problem abstractions. As a step towards understanding what problem structure exists and what abstractions are effective across market domains, I developed a working taxonomy of prediction and optimization abstractions that were frequently effective in these particular market domains.

M.Com. (Business Management)

The business environment requires more emphasis on decision making as a result of ever increasing competition. The decision making process must therefore be speeded up in order to make companies more competitive. This places more pressure on decision makers and allows for fewer mistakes. Decisions on executive level are made by the executive committee. Executives concentrate inevitably more on those decisions that have a major impact on the company and their decision-making ability has obvious implications for the success of the organisation. It is vital that decisions are taken effectively with clearly defined elements through a distinct order of steps. The decision-making process starts with the observation of the business environment and the subsequent formation of opinions of .various situations found therein. Needs and opportunities are identified by being constantly aware of activities in this environment. The identification of needs and opportunities should be a conscious and continuous process for management. The next step in the decision-making process is the setting of specific goals to be achieved by the decision. Goals are set to establish what must be achieved by such a decision. Certain goals must be met and others are set in order to evaluate different altematives. Different goals, which could range from primary to operational goals. should therefore be set and it is important that goals for a particular decision are supportive of the primary company goals. Goals are valuable as a standard against which alternatives can be evaluated. The development of different alternatives from which a choice has to be made enhances the quest for an optimal solution to a need or opportunity. The decision-making process must be a logical and orderly process in order to enable the decision maker to make an optimal decision. De Bono's (1985) "Six Thinking Hats" provides a logical method of decision-making by a group. By practicing the "Six Thinking Hats" principle a group of decision makers can develop alternatives to come to a decision in a systematic way without the normal customary conflict inherent in group decision making. The choice between the different alternatives is the last step in the decision-making process. The decision makers must compare the different alternatives with predetermined standards to be able to establish the optimal choice. These standards include historical, external and optimal standards as well as the maintenance of the status quo. The final decision is made according to the degree that the alternative complies with the decision goals and to the degree of confidence that the decision-making team have in the forecast of the possible consequences of the alternative. Decisions on executive level are mostly concerned with the future and as such fairly uncertain. As a result of the ever increasing competition in the business environment and largely due to the rapid development of technology, the need for aids in decision-making is becoming more of a necessity…

▼ The goal of this thesis project was to investigate cross-cultural differences in preferences for shared medical decision-making (SDM) by studying adults from the UK and Saudi Arabia. The aim of Study 1 was to gauge preferences for SDM in nonclinical samples from the UK and Saudi Arabia. Results show that there were indeed differences in SDM between Saudi and UK participants. Saudi participants tended to prefer stronger involvement from their doctor, whereas UK participants preferred to make choices themselves. The aim of Study 2 was to investigate in how far Saudi patients with Type 1 diabetes would be interested to be involved in a medical decision. The results of this qualitative study showed that, in general, physicians were reported to often have poor communication skills, which makes patients feel uncomfortable. Participants reported that their physician gave them medication without any discussion over the reasoning behind the prescription provided. Study 3 investigated parents’ preferences regarding their involvement in medical decisions when making decisions for themselves or their child, to record parents’ emotional reaction to shared medical decision-making, and to identify cultural differences on these topics in parents from Saudi Arabia and the UK. The results showed that parents were more likely to take an active role in the decision-making process when making the decision for themselves rather than their child. Decision confidence was higher in the non-informed choice condition. Emotional reaction and decision confidence were higher in the informed choice condition. A number of important recommendations for policy and practice that aim to increase shared decision-making and highlight the importance of culture. While European health-care professionals are increasingly encouraged to involve patients in decisions about their care, this study indicates that preferences for such shared medical decision making vary by culture and the recipient of the decision. This should be taken into account when health care professional involves patients in medical decisions.

▼ The integration of economic, social and environmental dimensions is essential for corporate sustainability. Integration requires that there be no a priori priority among these dimensions. Economic priorities, however, often dominate decision-making processes in for-profit organisations. This thesis asks how do organisations integrate predominant economic dimensions, on the one hand, and social-ecological dimensions, on the other? The question is focused on the middle management level, where relatively little is known about how competing organisational aspects are integrated. The study addresses a gap in theory relating to tensions in corporate sustainability by drawing on paradox, organisational ambidexterity and organisational identity literatures. The case study explored the research question from the lived experience of purposefully sampled research participants in a century-old mining company. The study focused on the integration of economic and social-ecological (E&SE) dimensions in the cross-functional decision-making process where mining projects are developed. Findings from the inductive analysis before and after the introduction of an intentional integration process revealed five dimensions of differentiation that were further explored. The analysis culminated in a process model of E&SE integration. I argue that E&SE integration on the middle management level is characterised by tensions between competing, interrelated priorities that constrain integration. Notwithstanding organisational commitment to corporate sustainability and E&SE integration, failure to manage these tensions perpetuates unsustainable outcomes in decision-making processes. The overarching contribution to corporate sustainability literature is a process model of E&SE integration on the middle management level that addresses the tensions that constrain integration. Integration is enabled by suspending premature convergence on a single option and by bringing social-ecological dimensions to the forefront in order to explore how E&SE dimensions are interdependent, before making binding choices. The study contributes to organisational ambidexterity literature by showing how the integration of strategic priorities on the middle management level is distinct from integration on the senior management level with respect to the quality of the decision and the locus of integration. The study also contributes to an emerging scholarly conversation regarding organisational purpose by identifying how reframing purpose into an integrative metaframe can enable commitment to an integrated decision-making process.

▼ Current global demand for products with more advanced features and capabilities, less weight, and increased aesthetics has driven manufacturers to make significant investments in machinery and tools. Company decisions to invest in advanced technologies are often strategically aimed toward short-term return and frequently do not conform to traditional cost accounting practices, which, in many cases, may lead to rejection of investment due to inappropriate measurement techniques. In revitalizing the manufacturing sector of the United States, manufacturing companies have been encouraged by a multitude of incentives to invest capital in plant and equipment enhancements in order to meet and exceed market expectations. The capital investment made by these companies is expected to enhance the capacity to make new products while expanding existing production capacity. The investments in advanced manufacturing and technology systems are often extensive and their successful implementation requires the full support and commitment of senior management. Traditional justification methods are often directly tied to company cash flow and short return period and the investments in advanced technology projects are often rejected as a result of the long-term return commitment. In this research, we have developed a methodology to measure the intangible attributes, yet include both tangible and intangible attributes in the economic decision-making process. Multiple attributes that may influence the decision process are included and measured in the proposed method. We present a comprehensive numerical example demonstrating the capability of the methodology. Additionally, we present conclusions and recommendations for future research in this important area to the manufacturing sector. Advisors/Committee Members: Lim, Gino J.

▼ This study investigated the decision-making styles of Generation Y consumers in Namibia and the relationship between their decision-making styles and their learning styles, culture and e-literacy. Data were obtained by administering Sproles and Kendal’s Consumer Style Inventory (CSI), Felder & Silverman Index of Learning Style (ILS), Hofstede Cultural Dimensions, demographic and e-literacy questionnaires to a random sample of 505 respondents from the 3 (three) major Universities in Namibia. Responses from the questionnaires were analysed using SPSS version 22. Descriptive statistics were used to report demographic information, measurements of central tendency (mean and median), variety (range, and standard deviation [SD]), percentage (%), and frequency (f) distribution of the survey items. And for inferential statistics, the principal components analysis (PCA) was used. In order to explore the relationships between consumer decision-making styles and learning styles, culture, e-literacy, Pearson correlation, Canonical correlation, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), and analysis of variance (ANOVA), were used. The findings confirmed eight (8) consumer decision-making styles among the Generation Y consumers in Namibia in order of importance as follows: Factor 5 - Price Conscious, “Value for Money”, Factor 3 - Novelty-Fashion Consciousness, Factor 2 - Brand Conscious, “Price Equals Quality”, Factor 6 - Impulsive Careless, Factor 8- Habitual, Brand Loyal, Factor 1 - Perfectionistic High-Quality Consciousness, Factor 4 - Recreational, Hedonistic, and Factor 7 - Confused by Over choice. The study concluded that female millennials in Namibia were more brand loyal than their male counterpart and that the three major Universities in Namibia produced millennials with different Profiles of consumer decision-making styles. In terms of learning styles, the Namibian Generation Y consumers reported mild preferences for Activist Learning Style, moderate preferences for Sensing Learning Style, moderate preferences for Visual Learning Style, and mild preferences for Sequential Learning Style. The study found significant differences between ethnic groups as well as age groups. Further, the study concluded that the three major Universities in Namibia produced millennials with different learning style preferences. The five Dimensions of the Hofstede Cultural Instrument namely Power Distance [PDI], Uncertainty Avoidance [UAI], Masculinity [MAS], Individualism [IDV], Long-Term Orientation [LTO] were found applicable to Namibia Generation Y consumers. Through coefficient analysis, the three major cultural dimensions among the Namibian Generation Y Consumers were identified as Long-Term Orientation, Uncertainty Avoidance and Power Distance. This is a significant finding in support of the notion that African cultures tend to accept power inequalities in societies. Once again, the study concluded that the three major Universities in Namibia produced millennials with different cultural values. In terms of e-literacy the study concluded…

▼ In four experiments, I investigate how moral imagination is enhanced or inhibited by the personal attributes of the decision maker and the characteristics of the environment within which the ethical decision is made. Specifically, I examine how moral identity and four kinds of moral agency that are derived from external sources (role autonomy, ethical organizational culture) and internal sources (power, moral efficacy) affect the degree of moral imagination in response to an ethical dilemma. Moral imagination is a creative form of ethical decision-making that requires decision makers to generate multiple alternative and novel courses of action, to apply multiple moral reasoning strategies, and to consider the consequences for multiple stakeholders. Results show that people in an unethical organizational culture are more likely to generate a greater number of novel courses of actions than people in an ethical organizational culture; high power people are more likely to use a greater number of moral reasoning strategies to determine the least likely course of action, and to consider the consequences for a greater number of stakeholders than low power people; and high moral efficacy people are more likely to generate a greater number of initial actions, and to consider the consequences for a greater number of stakeholders than low moral efficacy people. Moral identity (symbolization) moderates the relationship between role autonomy and the number of moral reasoning strategies used to determine the most likely course of action; moral identity (internalization) moderates the relationship between an organizational culture and the number of novel actions generated and the number of stakeholders considered; and moral identity (internalization) moderates the relationship between moral efficacy and the number of initial actions generated in response to an ethical dilemma. The moderating effect of moral identity internalization and symbolization on the relationship between moral agency (role autonomy, organizational culture, moral efficacy) and some dimensions of moral imagination are stronger for low moral identity people than high moral identity people. I gained three overall insights into the individual and situational factors that shape the process of ethical decision-making. The first insight is that some, but not all sources of moral agency directly affect, or interact with moral identity to affect, the degree of moral imagination in response to an ethical dilemma. A potential boundary condition for the effect of moral agency on moral imagination is the extent to which moral agency provides information about moral standards (i.e., contains moral content), and provides information about the agent‘s behavior in relation to those moral standards (i.e., contains a feedback mechanism). The second insight is that the moderating effect of moral identity on the relationship between moral identity and moral imagination is stronger for people with low rather than high moral identity. In other words, the experience of moral…
