TL;DR: In this paper, the authors link the use of brand image strategies to product performance, and propose a method to link brand image strategy with product performance in order to develop and manage brand image.
Abstract: Developing and managing brand image is an important part of a firm's marketing program. However, little research has been done (1) on linking the use of brand image strategies to product performanc...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the ability to predict and manage the function of these highly complex, dynamically changing communities is limited, and that close coordination of experimental data collection and method development with mathematical model building is needed to achieve significant progress in understanding of microbial dynamics and function.
Abstract: The importance of microbial communities (MCs) cannot be overstated. MCs underpin the biogeochemical cycles of the earth’s soil, oceans and the atmosphere, and perform ecosystem functions that impact plants, animals and humans. Yet our ability to predict and manage the function of these highly complex, dynamically changing communities is limited. Building predictive models that link MC composition to function is a key emerging challenge in microbial ecology. Here, we argue that addressing this challenge requires close coordination of experimental data collection and method development with mathematical model building. We discuss specific examples where model–experiment integration has already resulted in important insights into MC function and structure. We also highlight key research questions that still demand better integration of experiments and models. We argue that such integration is needed to achieve significant progress in our understanding of MC dynamics and function, and we make specific practical suggestions as to how this could be achieved.

TL;DR: The authors found evidence that valence focus and arousal focus are important processes in determining whether a dimensional or a discrete emotion model best captures how people label the different emotions in a given emotion.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach to test for accrual-based earnings management is proposed, which exploits the inherent property of accruality of accounting that any earnings management in one period must reverse in another period.
Abstract: This paper provides a new approach to test for accrual-based earnings management. Our approach exploits the inherent property of accrual accounting that any accrual-based earnings management in one period must reverse in another period. If the researcher has priors concerning the timing of the reversal, incorporating these priors can significantly improve the power and specification of tests for earnings management. Our results indicate that tests incorporating reversals increase test power by around 40% and provide a robust solution for mitigating model misspecification arising from correlated omitted variables.
