This ambiguity may lead customers to misjudge suppliers’ environmental practices, thereby increasing customers’ sustainability and reputational risks. Therefore, it is critical for customers to understand how to mitigate tone ambiguity in suppliers’ environmental disclosure. Drawing on social capital theory, this study explores the impact of customer green relational capital on the tone ambiguity in supplier environmental disclosure. Using data from 2503 unique customer–supplier dyads year observations of Chinese listed companies between 2010 and 2022, this study finds that customer green relational capital significantly reduces tone ambiguity in supplier environmental disclosure. Furthermore, this inhibitory effect is more pronounced when customer network centrality or customer–supplier environmental strategy orientation fit is high. By introducing the concept of tone ambiguity, this study broadens the scope of environmental disclosure research and enriches the literature on sustainable supply chain management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 115258"},"PeriodicalIF":10.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143474403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies utilizing triadic data from managers, consumers, and advertisements document that emerging market consumers perceive global brands as less standardized than they are. A perceived “standardization gap” exists in product characteristics and positioning. Positioning standardization gaps decrease consumers’ brand equity, willingness to pay, and the brand’s market share in the subsidiary market. Interestingly, consumers’ product standardization perceptions trigger two opposing mechanisms, a positive mechanism via better tailoring to local needs and a negative mechanism through inferences of lower quality and inferior products. These opposing mechanisms cancel each other out in affecting consumer brand equity. Managers can enhance positioning standardization perceptions by standardizing advertising in emerging markets. However, standardized advertising is less effective in shaping product standardization perceptions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 115249"},"PeriodicalIF":10.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143454877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This uncertainty can lead to misconceptions among scholars and practitioners regarding the findings from brand alliance studies. Through a meta-analysis, this study finds that the average size of the brand alliance effect is 0.244, indicating a significant brand ally influence on a focal brand. Additionally, the analysis reveals that fictional brands yield larger effect sizes regarding attitudes toward the brand alliance, whereas real brands exert a greater impact on attitudes toward the focal brand. Yet, the effect size is influenced by dependent variables and research design elements.

Study 2′s experiment illustrates how allusion moderates hope’s influence on message outcomes. Study 3 tests whether self-efficacy mediates the relationships between hope and allusion on message outcomes using Hayes PROCESS modeling. Results support self-efficacy’s mediation of the hope-allusion interaction on message response outcomes.

Analyzing 19,266 nuclear energy patent families, we find that inner-domain trajectory integration is linked to higher impact within the focal domain but lower impact outside it.

This framework reveals how stakeholders’ varying resource endowments manifest across both design processes (reflexivity and reformation) and non-design processes (reproduction). Second, we identify that stakeholders’ reflexive capabilities manifest in three degrees – focused on self-perceived role, current systemic role, and future systemic role – with those stakeholders who are capable of systemic reflection demonstrating higher voluntary resource investments than those who focused solely on their current roles. Third, we identify role myopia and role uncertainty as barriers that impede higher degrees of reflexivity, explaining differences in stakeholders’ resource investments and engagement levels throughout the design process.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 115255"},"PeriodicalIF":10.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143446085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
