To focus or not: investigating the viability of the “focused factory” concept in firms facing service disruptions
Mahour Mellat Parast,Adegoke Oke +1 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors draw from the concept of a focused factory to examine whether a focused strategy provides superior performance over a non-focused strategy in firms experiencing service disruptions, and find that the effect of service disruptions on profitability is less pronounced for firms following a focus strategy.

The moderator–mediator variable distinction in social psychological research: Conceptual, strategic, and statistical considerations.
Reuben M. Baron,David A. Kenny +1 more
TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.
