  • Burnout in Cardiovascular Care: Prevention Through Job Demands-Resources Theory
    Bakker, Arnold B.; Demerouti, Evangelia; Siu, Oi Ling (Elsevier, 2026)
    Artikkeli
    Burnout is a significant concern in cardiology, impacting both healthcare professionals and patient outcomes. Chronic job stress contributes to increased cardiovascular risk by disrupting autonomic regulation, increasing inflammation, and exacerbating metabolic disturbances. Burnout also impairs clinical performance, leading to higher rates of medical errors, reduced diagnostic accuracy, and poorer patient safety. Using Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory, this review explains how high job demands and insufficient job and personal resources create a self-reinforcing loss cycle, where burnout fuels self-undermining behaviors that further increase stress. Strategies to prevent burnout include job redesign, recovery interventions, and job crafting to optimize workload and enhance resources.
  • Happy, Healthy and Productive Abroad: Exploring Sustainable Global Careers and Developing Future Research Directions
    Zong, Shaofang; Suutari, Vesa; Mello, Rodrigo; Dickmann, Michael; Fouad, Nadya A. (toim.); van der Heijden, Beatrice I. J. M. (toim.); Scholarios, Dora (toim.) (Edward Elgar, 2026)

    In response to growing global uncertainty, scholars and practitioners are increasingly becoming interested in the sustainability of careers. However, the novel and emerging sustainable careers concept has not yet been integrated into the international career field, where expatriates moving across cultures face unique challenges. This chapter builds on the sustainable career framework to analyze the career sustainability of expatriates in terms of their health, happiness, and productivity. It also highlights the key factors within the person, context, and time dimensions that influence expatriates’ career sustainability. By extending the sustainable career concept into the global career context, this chapter extends our understanding of the specific nature of career sustainability in the global career context and provides suggestions for future research.
  • The Growth of Index Mutual Funds and Their Effect on Price Discovery
    Louko, Iiro (2026-06-30)
    Kandidaatintutkielma
    The continuous shift from active investing to passive investing has brought up questions on its implications on market efficiency. Index funds have grown to be a dominant force in the asset management industry, thus bringing on concerns on whether this shift from active investing impairs the price discovery of stock prices which market efficiency depends on. This study examines the effects of index fund growth on market efficiency, with a focus on price discovery, via existing literature that focuses on the S&P 500 and the U.S. stock market. The literature review finds supporting evidence for multiple negative effects for market efficiency which are caused by passive investing, such as mispricing, herding, index inclusion effect, underreaction to fundamental information, and volatility and co-movement, which are all signs of impaired market efficiency. While there is broad support from the evidence, the literature is not unanimous, and some studies fail to find negative effects that passive investing has caused for market efficiency.Jatkuva siirtyminen aktiivisesta sijoittamisesta passiiviseen sijoittamiseen on herättänyt kysymyksiä siirtymän vaikutuksista markkinoiden tehokkuuteen. Indeksirahastoista on tullut hallitseva voima varainhoitoalalla ja tämä herättää huolia siitä, heikentääkö tämä siirtymä aktiivisesta sijoittamisesta hintojen tehokasta muodostamista, johon markkinoiden tehokkuus perustuu. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan indeksirahastojen kasvun vaikutuksia markkinatehokkuuteen, keskittyen hinnanmuodostukseen, S&P 500-indeksiin ja Yhdysvaltain osakemarkkinoihin keskittyvän aikaisemman akateemisen kirjallisuuden avulla. Tämä kirjallisuuskatsaus löytää tukea useille markkinoiden tehokkuuteen vaikuttaneista passiivisen sijoittamisen haittavaikutuksista. Näitä ovat muun muassa virhehinnoittelu, laumasijoittaminen, indeksiin sisällyttämisefekti, alireagointi fundamentaaliseen informaatioon, sekä volatiliteetti vaikutukset ja osakkeiden hintojen yhteisliike. Nämä kaikki ovat merkkejä heikentyneestä markkinoiden tehokkuudesta. Vaikka todisteaineisto tukee laajasti johtopäätöksiä, aikaisempi kirjallisuus ei ole yksimielinen asian suhteen, eivätkä jotkut tutkimukset löydä todisteita passiivisen sijoittamisen negatiivisista vaikutuksista markkinoiden tehokkuuteen.
  • Energy efficiency and energy rebound across heterogeneous technologies: A global analysis
    Edziah, Bless Kofi; Kazukauskas, Andrius; Adom, Philip Kofi (Elsevier, 2026)
    Artikkeli
    Cross-country studies of energy efficiency and rebound effects typically impose a common production frontier and therefore ignore technological heterogeneity across countries. This paper relaxes that assumption by combining latent class stochastic frontier analysis with a rebound-adjusted stochastic energy-demand frontier. Using an unbalanced panel of 85 countries over 1996–2021, we first identify latent technology regimes and then estimate energy efficiency and rebound effects for the pooled sample and within each class. The results show that technological heterogeneity is empirically important. The homogeneous model masks differences in the determinants of energy demand and rebound effects and produces estimates that are more sensitive to aggregation. By contrast, the latent class model identifies two broad regimes in frontier behavior. Class 1, which includes many emerging industrializers and lower- and middle-income economies, shows lower average energy efficiency and slightly weaker rebound effects, whereas Class 2, which includes many advanced and upper-middle-income economies, exhibits higher efficiency but also somewhat stronger rebound effects. We also find evidence supporting a Rebound Kuznets Curve: energy rebound is lowest at low-income levels, rises significantly during the middle of the income distribution, and declines again at higher income levels. These findings suggest that the design of energy-efficiency policy should account for both technological heterogeneity and differences in development stage.
  • When Should Your Team Override AI? A Trust Calibration Routine
    Atanassova, Iva; Khan, Huda; Khan, Zaheer (Academy of Management, 2026)
    Artikkeli
    Teams that work with artificial intelligence (AI) frequently get the balance wrong: they either accept AI recommendations uncritically (automation bias) or reject them prematurely (algorithm aversion). Both tendencies degrade decision quality, yet managers lack practical guidance on when to rely on AI and when to override it. Drawing on recent empirical evidence on human–AI team performance, we propose a five-stage trust calibration routine—comprising co-sensing, co-framing, co-deciding, action and feedback, and trust reconfiguration—that helps teams maintain appropriate reliance on AI. We identify override rates (the proportion of AI recommendations a team reverses) and override accuracy (how often those reversals are correct) as core indicators of calibrated trust. The routine synthesizes established insights from organizational behavior, information systems, and human factors research into an actionable sequence of concrete review practices and metrics that team leaders can implement. We illustrate its application through two worked examples in Additional Materials, which contrast trust calibration for an agentic AI system (credit scoring) and an anthropomorphic AI system (a customer service assistant), showing how the same five stages apply with different emphases depending on how the AI is presented.
