“…For instance, according to performance feedback framing literature, collecting primary information has played a pivotal role in shaping our information on anti‐distortion strategies (Joseph & Gaba, 2015; Lucas et al, 2018). Adding aspiration information about the framing strategies theorized in this paper contributes to expanding empirical studies unfolding timings and methods for firms to protect the authenticity of environmental management (Davis et al, 2019; Mishina et al, 2010). The other main empirical route we see for expanding existing information disclosure is through global big data (Saxton et al, 2021).…”

In the digital age, to attract readers' attention, environmental activists may change the way corporate environmental information is reported and reinterpret it in social media. This paper aims to discuss how firms protect the perceived authenticity of their environmental disclosure. This study suggests that framing enables firms to clarify the disclosure focus for their readers in the information‐overload context. We propose five framing strategies and evaluate their effects on the stigmatized categorization, attribution, and diffusion of environmental information. By doing so, we add framing strategies to the managerial toolkit available for protecting the perceived authenticity of corporate voluntary environmental disclosure.

“…No change across those two exporting dimensions is kept as the base category. This approach (spline regression) has been used in a number of studies (Davis et al, 2019;Harris and Bromiley, 2007;Kuusela et al, 2017;Mishina et al, 2010) that investigate asymmetric hypotheses of this type (albeit within a different context) and examine whether the slope of a regression line differs above and below a certain threshold.…”

What are the consequences for innovation of fast, short-term changes in exporting activity?Building on the learning by exporting literature and using a sample of 880 Italian manufacturing firms over two successive time periods, our study reveals key asymmetries. First, a rapid increase in export breadth, but not in export depth, reduces the firm's probability of developing new innovative outputs. Second, no such effects are found in the case of a decrease in firms' exporting activity.Third, both absorptive capacity and foreign collaborative agreements facilitate the absorption of the shock occurring when firms experience a rapid increase in export breadth, but not when the rapid increase takes place in export depth. Theoretical and managerial implications emerge from this research.

“…Research on sports contexts has generated insights about unethical behavior, which is defined as workplace behaviors that violate generally accepted norms (Treviño, Weaver, & Reynolds, 2006). Empirical studies have explored such unethical behavior by looking at soccer players receiving yellow and red cards (Bartling, Brandes, & Schunk, 2015;Greve et al, 2021;Kilduff et al, 2016;Miklós-Thal & Ullrich, 2016), dojo members of martial arts violating "physicality norms" (Cole, 2015), NCAA members violating rules about recruiting and practice (Davis, Cox, & Baucus, 2021;Stern, 1981), ice hockey players receiving penalties for norm violations (Bushman & Wells, 1998;Kakkar, Sivanathan, & Gobel, 2020;Kelly & McCarthy, 1979), and horse-racing jockeys and members of competing neighborhoods being involved in violence, provoking injuries, and receiving penalties (Operti, Lampronti, & Sgourev, 2020). Some of these studies have also explored how practicing sports can help alleviate unethical and deviant behavior in everyday life (Trulson, 1986).…”

“…Research using sports data also extended leadership theory by integrating it with other theories. To examine the relationship between leadership, trust, and performance, Dirks (2000) leveraged survey data on coaches of NCAA men's college basketball teams to show that trust in leadership—but not in teammates—played a positive, mediating role between past and future team performance. Sports data also helped to shed light on the negative side of leadership.…”

Sports contexts are increasingly used in management research to test and develop theory and explore managerially relevant phenomena. This growth in publications is likely driven by a series of advantages that sports data offers to management researchers. However, such positive features are not a panacea, as several drawbacks are also associated with leveraging sports data, which can limit their usefulness for management scholars. In this paper, we aim to provide management researchers guidance to leverage the advantages and avoid the drawbacks of leveraging sports contexts. To do so, we identify and review 249 papers published over the last 50 years that used sports data to advance management theories and shed light on managerial phenomena. After outlining how these works contributed to the growth of several key conversations in management research, we discuss the advantages of using sports data by outlining how they can advance management research both conceptually (e.g., theory building and radical theorizing) and empirically (e.g., triangulation and replication). We then discuss the potential drawbacks of research using sports data and suggest ways to compensate for them. We close by outlining several new directions in which scholars can leverage sports data to further advance management research.
