We report on a field study demonstrating systematic differences between the preferences people anticipate they will have over a series of options in the future and their subsequent revealed preferences over those options. Using a novel panel data set, we analyze the film rental and return...

The notion of choice inconsistency is widely spread in the literature on behavioral economics. Several approaches were used to account for the observation that people reverse their choices over time. This paper aims to explain the formation of resolutions regarded as internal self-binding...

Loewenstein (1996, 2005) identifies an intrapersonal empathy gap. In the respective experiments, subjects make choices with delayed consequences. When entering the state where these consequences would unfold, they get the possibility to revise their initial choice. Revisions are more substantial...

An effective leader must have a clear vision and a strong will to stand by it, even in turbulent times. At the same time, though, it is also equally important to be open-minded and flexible enough to respond objectively to new information without being prejudiced by prior information. This paper...

The energy and material processing industries are traditionally characterized by very large-scale physical capital that is custom-built with long lead times and long lifetimes. However, recent technological advancement in low-cost automation has made possible the parallel operation of large...

In this article the results of a comprehensive empirical study of 1,200 Polish online stores are presented. It was focused on elements that affect the lead time: information about the availability of goods, about the exact stocks and about the declared delivery time. The significant differences...

The purpose of the study was to investigate the role of effective buyer supplier relationship on supply chain performance in Kenya. The study objectives were to identify how lead time, quality, cost and employee morale affects effective buyer supplier relationship on supply chain performance in...

We develop a deterministic optimization model that incorporates carbon emissions in a multi-echelon production-inventory model with lead time constraints. We impose that each customer order must be delivered within the due date fixed by the customer. The quantity that cannot be delivered on time...

We consider a decentralized supply chain consisting of a supplier and a retailer facing price- and lead-time-sensitive demand. The decision process is modelled by a Stackelberg game where the supplier, as a leader, determines the capacity and the wholesale price, and the retailer, as a follower,...
