For this, the steps for building scales proposed by Costa (2011) were followed. The exploratory phase took place in the form of an integrative literature review and item generation. Meanwhile, the descriptive phase details the procedures for constructing and validating the scale. The scale consists of 5 factors (preliminary, initial, basic, intermediate and advanced) and 19 items generated from 301 valid responses. The research presents its contributions by delivering a scale that is both capable of measuring the different ways citizens see co-production and has the potential to contribute to future studies.","PeriodicalId":221191,"journal":{"name":"Contextus – Revista Contemporânea de Economia e Gestão","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127218890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors found that number of employees and intention to raise money on a short-term basis were the least determining elements for those companies’ growth strategies, whereas having already raised funds and their growth rate were the most determining aspects that influenced their growth strategy. Also, it was shown that the QFD-Fuzzy Matrix may be adapted to support investors’ decisions.","PeriodicalId":221191,"journal":{"name":"Contextus – Revista Contemporânea de Economia e Gestão","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122691597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These relationships range all the stages of the decision making, affecting the rationale applied by the decision-maker regarding the adherence of corporate sustainability practices. This suggests that the organizations may benefit themselves when developing information presentation strategies aligned, not only to the stakeholders’ values, but also in the way that these values engage with the information.
