The findings indicate that higher levels of gender equality and the presence of mandatory quota legislation are associated with significantly higher levels of board gender diversity and overall diversity performance. However, the results also reveal a more limited effect on executive management representation, suggesting that improvements at the board level do not automatically translate into broader gender equality within firms. Furthermore, only a minority of companies achieve gender-balanced boards, although this proportion is substantially higher in countries with binding quota systems. These findings highlight the importance of institutional complementarities and provide evidence that mandatory quota systems are more effective than recommended frameworks, while also underscoring the need for complementary organizational and policy measures to advance gender equality beyond the boardroom.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45796,"journal":{"name":"European Research on Management and Business Economics","volume":"32 3","pages":"Article 100325"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148995200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis identifies 20 major research themes and shows a progressive shift from early studies on funding mechanisms and entrepreneurial finance to more diversified topics, including campaign success factors, platform dynamics, investor behaviour, digital innovation, and sustainability-related issues. By combining quantitative text analysis with an in-depth examination of these topics, this study synthesizes the existing literature, highlights major research trends, and identifies promising directions for future research.

GC combines emotional attachment to the organisation with willingness to work towards organisational goals. Survey responses from 404 employees were analysed using covariance-based structural equation modelling. EL was positively associated with GC, which in turn was positively related to work-team participation and consensus. Both GC and team participation were positively associated with perceived performance, whereas the direct EL–performance link was weak. Therefore, in this setting, EL appears to relate to performance mainly through GC and team processes. The study supports GC as a useful commitment dimension beyond classic affective commitment and offers guidance for managers seeking to build committed teams through ethical conduct.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":45796,"journal":{"name":"European Research on Management and Business Economics","volume":"32 2","pages":"Article 100319"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147951381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Perceived value influences customer recommendation behaviour; however, this is also dependent on the availability of alternative service options.

Emotions were captured through a neuroscience-based Emotion AI system using convolutional neural networks, while entrepreneurial intention, perceived behavioural control, social norms, personal attitudes and employability were measured using a theory of planned behaviour questionnaire administered before and after the activities, and the proposed model was estimated using the partial least squares path modelling (PLS-SEM) method.

The results indicate that positive emotions significantly increase perceived behavioural control, which in turn reinforces entrepreneurial intention and, ultimately, students’ perceived employability.

We provide new causal evidence of the path-dependent nature of green innovation, with prior innovations exerting persistent treatment effects across multiple periods. The mediation analysis further reveals that collaborative R&D serves as a critical channel through which innovation capabilities are mobilized. These results underscore the complementarity between internal resources and external knowledge access, which enables firms to reconfigure their capabilities in response to environmental imperatives.

There is a significant influence of risk adaptation in financially knowledgeable households. This challenges the traditional connection between risk and return: return is not only a function of perceived financial risk, but also associated with household and social risks.
