We investigate the role of mandatory financial disclosure in the takeover market for privately held U.S. banks. Public financial information plays a critical role in the takeover market as acquirers rely on it to identify potential targets and conduct preliminary due diligence. Using a...

Chromium content of vanadium slag considerably affects its phase composition, micromorphology, elements distribution, and further vanadium extraction by calcification roasting–acid leaching. In this work, remelting and crystallization were used to prepare vanadium slag with different Cr2O3...

The Cr 2 O 3 content of vanadium slag considerably affects its phase composition, micromorphology, elements distribution, and further vanadium extraction by calcification roasting–acid leaching. In this work, remelting and crystallization were used to prepare vanadium slag with different Cr 2...

This thesis aims to contribute to a further understanding of the real dynamics of OPEC production behavior and its impacts on the world oil market. A literature review in this area shows that the existing studies on OPEC still have some major deficiencies in theoretical interpretation and...

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused huge and disruptive technological changes in the healthcare sector, transforming the way businesses and societies function. To respond to the global health crisis, there have been numerous innovation projects in the healthcare sector, including the fast design...

We design a series of online performance feedback interventions that aim to motivate the production of user-generated content (UGC). Drawing on social value orientation (SVO) theory, we develop a novel set of alternative feedback message framings, aligned with cooperation (i.e., your content...

We construct, estimate and explore the monetary policy consequences of a New Keynesian (NK) behavioural model with bounded-rationality and heterogeneous agents. We radically depart from most existing models of this genre in our treatment of bounded rationality and learning. Instead of the usual...
