Using Multivariate Statistics

The advent of the Internet as a business systems platform has been a catalyst for major changes in the operation and status of organizational procurement. Early e-procurement literature forecast significant improvements in procurement costs, an improving status of the purchasing function, and changes to the structure of supply markets. Our study seeks to evaluate the validity of these forecasts through the development of a structural model of the ‘e-procurement effect’. This model is intended to define the dynamics of the e-procurement process in an organization and provide a foundation for a research stream into the transformational effect of e-procurement deployment. The article presents the evaluation of e-procurement implementation and operation from an 18-month study of e-procurement deployment across nine UK public sector organizations. The article explores five key themes in e-procurement, namely system specification, implementation management, changes to organizational characteristics, changes in total acquisition costs, and changes to governance structures. Our analysis suggests that the proposed structural model of the e-procurement effect is broadly applicable and that many of the previous claimed benefits in the literature can be realized. We also contend that an important variable for the success of e-procurement adoption is to address the internal service quality attributes of e-procurement processes—a topic which offers significant scope for future research.

Impact of E-Procurement: Experiences from Implementation in the UK Public Sector.

Opportunism is recognized as a key factor that can affect the quality of relationship between buyers and sellers. However, there is a relative lack of research in the antecedents of opportunism. This paper draws upon transaction cost economics and relationship marketing paradigms to propose a conceptual framework involving six potential antecedents. Data from 270 franchisees in a Korea based franchise system is used to test the hypotheses. Results from a structural equation model show that the conflict in a relationship significantly increases franchisee opportunism. Furthermore, conflict mediates the effects of other antecedents in the framework which include alternative attractiveness, goal incongruity, unfairness, transaction-specific investments, and termination cost. The study provides theoretical and managerial insights into understanding and controlling opportunism.

Offender Profiling And Crime Analysis

The notion that individuals with psychopathic personality characteristics 
exist in the corporate world is both a logical extension of the estimated community prevalence rates of the disorder, as well as a scientific hypothesis 
based on the observation that a number of the characteristics of the disorder9.1 Introduction 139

Appendix: Corporate Psychopathy Inventory Items 161could convey an advantage within this context (Crant & Bateman, 2000; Kets 
de Vries & Miller, 1985). However, very little literature has actually tested the 
validity of the hypothesis, despite the proliferation of the idea in media portrayals and semi-academic publications (Babiak & Hare, 2006; Boddy, 2011b; 
Dutton, 2012). Given that psychopathy in its criminal manifestation has been 
shown to predict aggression and violent behaviour, the assumption has been 
that in a business setting those individuals with the disorder will be responsible for fraud (Blickle, Schlegel, Fassbender, & Klein, 2006), workplace bullying (Caponecchia, Sun, & Wyatt, 2012) and poor management (Babiak, 
Neumann, & Hare, 2010). Smith and Lilienfeld (2013) have, though, recently 
posited a ‘double-edged sword’ hypothesis, citing examples from studies 
that have shown positive characteristics including being a strategic thinker, 
being creative or innovative and successful leadership (Babiak et al., 2010; 
Lilienfeld, Waldman, Landfield, Watts, Rubenzer, & Faschingbauer, 2012). 
The present study seeks to further clarify the distinction between positive 
and negative manifestations of psychopathic personality characteristics in 
a corporate sample. The aims of the study include the development of an 
assessment tool to measure psychopathic personality traits in a business setting, as well as the elucidation of how these characteristics correlate with 
other validated measures relevant to psychopathy assessment.

Personality differences and buyer-supplier relationships: Psychopathy in executives, gender differences and implications for future research

ABSTRACT Risk assessment and threat management are important components of crime control and crime prevention, with the results of assessments having a significant impact on personal and community safety. There may also be important legal implications arising from these if individuals are deemed to be a risk to others. There is evidence showing that traditional risk assessment tools do not consider the victim’s role, even though it is important to incorporate into assessment and management to gain a full understanding of the risk and the intervention to decrease or eliminate risk or harm. This paper reviews the construct of victim precipitation, where the victim may actively do something or has characteristics that entice or incite an offender. Victim precipitation is a controversial topic that has not been the subject of much recent research, and its relationship to risk assessment and threat management has therefore been largely ignored. This paper argues that excluding victim precipitation has a negative impact on the conclusions derived from risk assessment and threat management. This is done by analyzing victim precipitation, risk assessment, and threat management in detail which helps understand the role precipitation plays.
