How Coopetition Influences Environmental Performance: Role of Financial Slack, Leverage, and Leanness
Sachin B. Modi,David E. Cantor +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of co-etition on a focal firm's environmental performance and found that a co-opetitor firms' environmental performance has a spillover effect on the environmental performance of the focal firm.

An Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an evolutionary theory of the capabilities and behavior of business firms operating in a market environment, including both general discussion and the manipulation of specific simulation models consistent with that theory.
Book
Applied Linear Statistical Models
TL;DR: Applied Linear Statistical Models 5e as discussed by the authors is the leading authoritative text and reference on statistical modeling, which includes brief introductory and review material, and then proceeds through regression and modeling for the first half, and through ANOVA and Experimental Design in the second half.

Structural Inertia and Organizational Change
Michael T. Hannan,John Freeman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider structural inertia in organizational populations as an outcome of an ecological-evolutionary process and define structural inertia as a correspondence between a class of organizations and their environments.
