TL;DR: It is shown that the risky tendencies are limited to unpleasant moods accompanied by high arousal; neither sadness nor neutral arousal resulted in destructive risk taking.
Abstract: Increased risk taking may explain the link between bad moods and self-defeating behavior. In Study 1, personal recollections of self-defeating actions implicated bad moods and resultant risky decisions. In Study 2, embarrassment increased the preference for a long-shot (high-risk, high-payoff) lottery over a low-risk, low-payoff one. Anger had a similar effect in Study 3. Study 4 replicated this and showed that the effect could be eliminated by making participants analyze the lotteries rationally, suggesting that bad moods foster risk taking by impairing self-regulation instead of by altering subjective utilities. Studies 5 and 6 showed that the risky tendencies are limited to unpleasant moods accompanied by high arousal; neither sadness nor neutral arousal resulted in destructive risk taking.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors empirically investigate the effect of alliance-specific and firm-level factors on a high-technology venture's alliance management capability and find that different alliance types place differential demands on a firm's ability to effectively manage multiple alliances.
Abstract: Building on the recent theoretical notion that a firm's alliance management capability can be a source of competitive advantage (Dyer and Singh, 1998; Ireland, Hitt, and Vaidyanath, 2002), we empirically investigate the effect of alliance-specific and firm-level factors on a high-technology venture's alliance management capability. We define alliance management capability as a firm's ability to effectively manage multiple alliances. To test the effect of alliance type on alliance management capability, we first establish that the relationship between a high-technology venture's R&D alliances and its new product development is inverted U-shaped, regardless of alliance type (i.e., upstream, horizontal, and downstream alliances). Then, we posit that different alliance types place differential demands on a firm's alliance management capability due to the different types of partners involved and due to the different types of knowledge being transferred. Finally, we argue that firms build an alliance management capability through cumulative experience with strategic alliances over time. We test the effects of alliance type and alliance experience on alliance management capability by drawing on a sample of 2,226 R&D alliances entered into by 325 global biotechnology firms in the twenty-five year period between 1973 and 1997. We find that alliance type and alliance experience moderate the relationship between a high-technology venture's R&D alliances and its new product development. These results provide some preliminary empirical evidence for the existence of an alliance management capability. The results further highlight the relevance of alliance management capability for high-technology ventures since alliance experience appears to be a distinct construct, different from firm age and firm size. Taken together, these results underscore both the ability of a high-tech venture to create a competitive advantage based on its alliance management capability and the risks alliances pose if the firm's alliance activity exceeds its alliance management capability. Managers in high-tech ventures need to consider their current alliance portfolio as well as potential alliances within the context of their firm's alliance management capability.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of return policies on both a retailer's and a manufacturer's profits is examined. But they focus on the effect that such return policies have on both the retailer and the manufacturer.
Abstract: Manufacturers often use returns policies to encourage retailers to stock and price items more aggressively. We focus on the effect that such policies have on both a retailer's and a manufacturer's profits when the retailer must commit prior to the selling season to both a stocking quantity and a price at which to sell an item. Such a commitment is often necessary for retailers who sell primarily through catalogues.
