This dissertation aims to explore the potential non-work consequences of unethical leader-requests. Specifically, it examines how unethical leader-requests can trigger anxiety and anger in employees, which in turn harmfully influence employees’ insomnia, emotional exhaustion at home, and interactions with family members. In addition, this dissertation examines whether employees’ moral identity and responsibility displacement propensity will serve as two moderators that affect the degree to which they emotionally and behaviorally respond to unethical leader-requests. A three-wave field survey, a laboratory experiment, and an experience sampling method study were conducted to collectively improve the internal and external validity of the findings. Overall, the findings suggest that employees feel anxious and angry when they are requested by their leaders to engage in unethical behavior and that the negative emotions can spill over to employees’ family domain to harmfully impact their family lives. Implications and future directions will be discussed.

This three-paper dissertation investigates dynamic performance in uncertain situations. Each chapter in this dissertation represents a stand-alone paper. The first chapter combines literature on sleep processes with decision making in uncertain contexts to create a process model of sleep and uncertainty management. I highlight many mechanisms between sleep and uncertainty management, and explore the recursive relationship between these activities and subsequent sleep. The underexplored mechanisms in Chapter 1 provide the empirical impetus for Chapters 2 and 3. The second chapter investigates entrepreneurs in new venture settings, providing causal evidence for the effect of sleep restriction on new venture ideation and belief formation. The third and final chapter provides a constructive replication of the second chapter in an angel investing context, where beliefs about new venture potential are formed more frequently and more formally by investors. These chapters work together to inform our collective understanding of dynamic performance in a decidedly uncertain new venture context.
This dissertation contains both previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

How do firms strengthen their institutional environment after the unplanned and radical weakening of a strong regulatory institution? For some industries, regulative institutions play a dominant role in defining the institutional environment by providing stability and certainty for firms. Yet, environmental jolts can radically weaken regulative institutions causing increased uncertainty and instability in the institutional environment. Driven by this uncertainty, firms may attempt to strengthen their weakened institutional environment.
By exploring this question, in the context of weakened copyright protection after the rise of digital piracy, I can make important contributions to the institutional change literature. Specifically, I build new theory on how firms coordinate actions targeting multiple institutional pillars (e.g. regulative and normative) to change their institutional environment and the institutional environment of different industries. I test these theories using a longitudinal dataset of the corporate political activity of copyright-reliant firms, and the copyright infringement takedown notices sent to Google.

Entrepreneurs seeking to commercialize science-based technologies face considerable challenges including uncertain environments, policy makers and investors' ignorance, and public opposition and ethical concerns. Most research exploring the emergence of technologies assumes the existence of accepted uses or products, despite the fact that efforts to commercialize science-based technologies often begin before specific applications exist. We have little empirical evidence of how individuals and organizations influence the earliest development of technologies. To address this gap, I conduct a real-time, seven-year, qualitative study of the nanotechnology venture investing community. The study draws on extensive archival data, participant observation of a complete series of annual nanotechnology investing conferences, and case studies of the three venture capital (VC) firms specializing in nanotechnology through the period of the study. The cases are based on semi-structured and website archives.
I document the emergence of competing nanotechnology frames in the period prior to the identification of product applications. I identify three sequential activities of nanotechnology business proponents: constructing a socio-semiotic space, positioning as experts within the space, and translating scientific, opposition and futuristic discourse for a target audience. I introduce the concept of a socio-semiotic space and develop a model reflecting the three activities to explain the process through which technology proponents project a business frame to support the commercialization of science-based technologies.
This dissertation contributes to our knowledge of technology evolution by focusing on the understudied period of early emergence and the sociopolitical process of technology framing. I contribute to our knowledge of how science discoveries become the basis for fields of commercial activity. The findings of this dissertation provide knowledge that can assist business people and policy makers seeking to develop science- based technologies and the fields that emerge around them.

This dissertation is composed of one conceptual review chapter and two empirical chapters with the following abstracts. In the first chapter, I adopt a resource mobilization framework, which delineates the process in three stages: search, access, and transfer. In doing so, I explore how resource mobilization is closely linked to entrepreneur’s resource endowments. I identify the main issues for the mechanisms of each stage which helps highlight the problematic path of resource mobilization when entrepreneurs lack the necessary endowments. I then suggest an adapted path with macro and micro-level solutions to potentially overcome such issues. In the second chapter, I challenge the premise that resource holders must “pick winners” because they are most likely to convert the support into tangible and positive entrepreneurial outcomes by asking when does selection matter less? This chapter’s core premise is that expanding access to resources by removing selection barriers can help enhance two key entrepreneurial outcomes: action and persistence. I find that removing selection barriers to the provision of knowledge and financial resources significantly increases the likelihood of entrepreneurs engaging in action and persistence independent of their initial stock of resources. These findings help de-emphasize the role of endowment and selection in the resource mobilization process and highlight the importance of inclusion in the allocation of entrepreneurial resources.
In the third chapter, I examine the question: do entrepreneurs incorporate what they learn? Are they behaviorally experimenting? I argue that entrepreneurs within such environments may need more than the explicit knowledge on how to experiment to navigate the ambiguous and informal markets where they operate. I use a field experiment in the context of an acceleration program spanning the 12 regions of Morocco, where I randomized access to knowledge resources (training and mentoring) among other resources. I then take advantage of the staff quasi-random assignment of the mentor-entrepreneur pairs to evaluate the effect of having a matched mentor who would have the appropriate tacit knowledge to help entrepreneurs localize and contextualize the explicit knowledge they acquired. I find that having access to tacit knowledge increases the probability to engage in behavioral experimentation by 20 percent. These findings suggest that tacit knowledge helps entrepreneurs incorporate their learning into their decision-making.

Over the last several decades, economic and cultural shifts in the United States have created an increasing demand for domestic labor, and data shows that these jobs have largely been filled by women of color, many of whom are immigrants who may or may not have documented legal status. Despite the growing importance of this industry, domestic workers have historically and intentionally been excluded from most federal and state labor rights and regulation, which has resulted in substandard working conditions, exploitation, and abuse for workers in this industry. This research traces the gendered and racialized legislative exclusion, and analyzes recent state efforts to enact policies extending labor rights to domestic workers. It concludes with recommendations for the role of advocacy in pushing for legislative change, and for bridging the gap between policy and enforcement.

Thanks to technological advances in the past few decades, firms find product variety a more viable and hopefully a more profitable strategy than before. In this two-essay dissertation, I employ analytical models to investigate the effects of emerging operations concerning product variety on firm profits and consumer surplus. In my first essay, I analyze a two-stage game to study product-design and price competition between two mass-customizing firms that serve consumers with varying tastes. By comparing equilibrium results in settings with and without mass customization, I establish that competition with customization may lead to lower profits and consumer surplus. In my second essay, I study sample boxes which potentially create value by helping consumers resolve their uncertainties regarding different product varieties more efficiently. I show that when a firm offers a sample box, consumers obtain equal or higher net expected surplus while the firm's expected profit may decrease. I also show that a firm can reverse the potential adverse profit impact of selling sample boxes by introducing an optimally specified future credit.

This paper is probably the first academic attempt to define the problem of the uninsured motorist in Oregon. It represents a piece of research in an area where little has been done to determine the scope and depth of the problem. The size of the problem is shown by the number of uninsured motorists involved in accidents, and the amount of damages incurred by individuals that become involved with uninsured motorists.

This dissertation seeks to relieve theoretical tension between organizational ambidexterity and network perspectives by developing a contingent model of firm-level exploration and exploitation. The central proposition of this model is firms need to both effectively explore and exploit to succeed but that inter-organizational network features supporting one of these activities are detrimental to the other. This model indicates firms can resolve this apparent paradox by configuring their networks contingent on the particular goals of these networks. In the context of technology commercialization, I hypothesize firms should benefit by configuring their inter-organizational networks to gather novel information when seeking to discover new technologies but gather redundant information when seeking to bring these new discoveries to market. I test these hypotheses with a unique panel data set of firms active in publishing, patenting, and commercializing technologies in the field of green chemistry. My empirical results largely support these hypothesized relationships.

New social entities are critically in need of different types of resources in order to survive and diffuse. In order to access these resources, a new social entity needs to be deemed legitimate by the multiple stakeholder communities who control these resources. The criteria upon which a social entity is evaluated are likely to vary among the different stakeholders, possibly leading to conflict and uncertainty. Existing research has focused on the efforts of a focal actor in legitimating a social entity. However, little research has investigated the contestations between the different stakeholder communities around the social entity and how these dynamics could shape the legitimation process. In this study, I employ a distributed and inclusive analytical approach to uncover the process through which a new social entity is contested and legitimated among multiple stakeholder communities simultaneously. I investigate three local solutions that emerged in the city of Eugene, Oregon to alleviate the issue of homelessness. I employ an inductive approach with grounded theory analysis to induce a two-phase legitimation model for proto-institutions. The model hinges on the role of issue interpretation and contestation between issue narratives. This study contributes to the growing literature on institutional complexity and issue fields through capturing the complexity of legitimation as it unfolds in a changing field, between multiple stakeholder communities with shifting criteria of legitimacy.

By pursuing private and collective political action in the nonmarket environment, businesses attempt to influence public policy that shapes their operating environment. This dissertation considers how a firm’s market-based experience and its accumulation of political resources affect how the firm combines private and collective political tactics. Drawing on the resource-based view of the firm (RBV) I investigate how a firm’s alliance experience, political resources and prior collective political experience influence the autonomy of its Corporate Political Activity (CPA). I use fixed effects GLS regression with clustered standard errors to test my model on a panel of 21,329 firm/year observations of 2,779 U.S. property casualty insurance companies over the ten-year period between 2005 and 2014. I find support for the influence of state-level political resources, equity alliances, and the interaction of prior collective CPA experience with regulatory complexity and learning capacity on autonomy. My findings contribute to the growing literature connecting market and non-market strategies by linking collaboration in the political arena to the related market activity of alliance experience. Findings also contribute to our understanding of how participation in a collective provides opportunities for learning, and reveals that taking advantage of this opportunity depends on a firm’s learning capacity and the complexity of its regulatory environment. These findings add insight to the literatures on CPA, inter-organizational learning, collective action and trade associations.

The purpose of this study is to make a critical survey of the organization and system of accounts used in Lane County and to offer a constructive criticism thereof. The system of accounts now in use in Lane County appears to be inadequate to serve the needs of the public. It fails to provide information which the public has a right to demand, and it fails to give a true condition of county finances. There has been some awakening in public conscience to this condition of affairs. Taxpayers, who once were content to passively pay their assessments, mildly complain that they were too high, and blindly hope that next year they would be lower, have begun to realize that they are entitled to know where their money goes and to be assured that municipal business is conducted properly and honestly. At the 1929 session of the Legislature of the State of Oregon, House Bill No.238, an excerpt from which follows, was passed and became a part of the General Laws of Oregon on June 4, 1929.

In this dissertation, I investigate how organizations understand and apply shared meanings of sustainability. Integrating recent theoretical developments regarding organizational culture with findings from prior literature suggesting that corporate codes can be effective instruments for shaping employee behavior, I describe the flexible exchange of cultural meanings and practices between organizations and their environment with respect to the adoption of environmental certified management standards (ECMS).
Taking an inductive, mixed methodological approach, I first use cultural consensus modeling survey techniques to analyze the types of situations vineyard managers in Oregon and Washington categorize as sustainable management conventions and the consistency of these categorizations among those organizations that have adopted ECMS and those organizations that have not. I then draw on interview and archival data to gain deeper insight into the survey findings, focusing on the nature of the relationship between the adoption of ECMS and managerial knowledge around shared meanings and practices regarding sustainability.
I find that the adoption of ECMS is associated with an alignment among organizations regarding how they understand and apply sustainability, with three characteristics enhancing the effectiveness of ECMS in cultivating alignment: detailed practice descriptions, demanding objectives to achieve and maintain, and industry specificity. I further uncover that key activities involving the interaction of ECMS and ECMS members facilitate this alignment in cultural meanings and practices surrounding sustainability. From these findings, I develop a grounded conceptual model of cultural exchange, describing how organizations serve varying roles in the cultural exchange process and how each role leverages a set of specific mechanisms to facilitate the adaptation, generation, and transfer of existing and new cultural meanings and practices between organizations drawing on a shared cultural repertoire.
The findings from this study contribute to enhancing our theoretical understanding of organizational culture as an open system through a more complex, intentional, and hierarchical account of cultural exchange, as well as develop insight into how the substantive adoption of ECMS practices is associated with alignment among organizations regarding cultural meanings and practices regarding a salient issue in an industry, such as sustainability.

This study deals with federal credit unions on a national basis. It attempts to answer such questions as the following: what is a federal credit union? Where does the Federal Credit Union stand, as a financial institution, in our present day economy? Are there economies of scale in the larger credit unions’ operations? Should there be a tax upon the earnings of federal credit unions similar to the tax upon earnings of other financial institutions (such as commercial banks and savings and loan associations)? For what purpose do credit unions lend? This study also analyzes Federal Credit Union growth and operations. It attempts to point out the significant changes that have taken place in the Federal Credit Union since 1934. The method of presentation in this study is both historical and statistical. And the analysis of statistical data the emphasis is predominantly on developments in recent years.

“We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall hang separately” are famous words spoken by Benjamin Franklin at the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. That attitude of working together resulted in the founding of the United States of America. The establishment and growth of the cooperative form of business in the United States of America. The establishment and growth of the cooperative form of business in the United States has been derived from much the same attitude of working together for the mutual benefit of the ones who are cooperating.

The coming of the twentieth century witnessed the continuation
of the movement of settlers to the western states
of this nation. the movement having gained its greatest impetus
in the discovery of gold in California in 1849. The
discovery of gold in the Bohemia Mountain District of the
Cascade Mountains near Cottage Grove, Oregon, in 1858 had
also attracted settlers. Not all of those that came were
attracted by the prospect of finding gold. Many came to work
in and develop industries and business concerns that were far
less glamorous, but yet offered a promising future as the
economy of Oregon developed.

During 1989, East Central Europe witnessed one of the most remarkable
transformations in socio-political history. The economic transformation that followed
represents one the most remarkable economic transitions in modern history. In Poland,
the Warsaw Stock Exchange has greatly facilitated the transition from a centrally
controlled to a market-based economy. Still, the general youthfulness of the Warsaw
Stock Exchange erodes the ability of individual firms traded on the exchange to establish
a positive reputation with investors. This dissertation investigates how firms traded on the
Warsaw Stock Exchange establish reputation with investors despite the youthfulness of
the exchange. To address this topic, a general model of organizational reputation formation is
developed. The model presented suggests that the individual firm can establish itself as
reputable through the mechanisms of performance, signaling and legitimation. The
general model is used to develop specific hypotheses concerning how firms traded on the
Warsaw Stock Exchange establish reputation with investors. Two separate analyses are
conducted to test the hypotheses. The first analysis looks at all firms traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange as of the end of 1996 while the second analysis looks
specifically at the reputation of firms immediately following the issuing of new shares.
The results provide mixed support for the hypotheses. However, the results
suggest an important role for financial performance, ownership structure and the use of
international brokers during the issuing of new shares, each relating to the mechanisms of
performance, signaling and legitimation, respectively. Thus, each of the mechanisms
identified in the general model of organizational reputation formation appears to have
some influence in shaping the reputation of the firm.

This dissertation integrates economic and sociological approaches to network organizing to explain the structure and performance of network organizational forms. Previous theorizing from economics and sociology linked network organizational structure to "pairwise" or dyadic assessments of transaction efficiency and relational efficacy. Research based on these theories offered only partial understanding of network organizational performance because this work ignores the impact of multiple dyads interacting simultaneously, which occurs at the network level of analysis.
This study integrates economic and sociological theories, treating them as interdependent explanations of network structure and performance. Theory is developed at the network level of analysis, which is necessary to explain the structure and performance of network organizations. Taking a network governance perspective, I formulate a theoretical model predicting the impact of exchange conditions upon the structure and performance of network organizations. I focus upon a specific variant of network organizations, "temporary interorganizational networks" (TINs), and develop and test hypotheses derived from transaction cost economics and from the sociological perspective focusing on relational embeddedness. I test these hypotheses by constructing a unique dataset containing comprehensive financial, organizational, and performance information regarding a population of network organizations during the years 2000-2007. Each observation in this dataset constitutes a network form designed to address a specific project, and these observations include both those networks that succeeded and those that failed.
The study's design overcomes a limitation of prior cross-sectional analyses: Most prior analyses treat network ties as durable and assume that all ties add value to an organization. This assumption is challenged by empirical findings suggesting that the value of a relational tie decays rapidly with time. In contrast, the transient relationships common in TINS repeatedly form and dissolve over time. By observing both the formation and dissolution of ties and both successful and unsuccessful interorganizational networks, this study is among the first to test the full range of network organizational performance.
My results indicate that exchange conditions significantly affect both the structure and performance of the network organizational form. Additionally, analyses reliably predict failure of the network form, which amends and extends prior theory.

Oregon's Statewide Planning Goals embody Smart Growth in their effort to revitalize urban areas, finance environmentally responsible transportation systems, provide housing options, and protect natural resources; yet the State defers to its municipalities to implement this planning framework. This research focuses on Goal 14 (Urbanization), linking most directly to Smart Growth Principle 7 (Strengthen and Direct Development toward Existing Communities). It assesses Eugene's, Keizer's, Salem's, and Springfield's growth management policies that specifically target infill development of single family homes against this Goal and Principle. Though these municipalities must demonstrate consistency with the same Goals (see Supplemental File 1 for this context), this research questions whether sufficiently different policy approaches to curtailing sprawl yield significantly different results. The primary analytical method is a logistic regression that uses parcel-level data to understand how administration affects development by isolating these policies' direct effects on observed outcomes (see Supplemental File 2 for this theory).

A capital gain or loss results from the sale or exchange of a capital asset. It is the difference between the purchase price or acquisition value and the selling price or taxable exchange value of a capital asset. A capital asset is often defined as any asset held not in the ordinary course of the individual's business. Unless otherwise provided by law, capital assets are all assets except: (1) stock in trade or property held primarily for sale or customers; (2) depreciable property or real estate used in trade or business; (3) Federal, State, and Municipal obligations issued after arch 1, 1941, on a discount basis and payable without interest at a fixed maturity date; and (4) personal consumption goods.

It is the purpose of this thesis to show what factors are responsible for the success and development of the Northern Wholesale Hardware Company, a cooperative retail buying association. It may be well to point out these factors by determining to what extent, if at all, the whole cell functions of selling, buying, credit, delivery, and storage are performed by this company; And, also, to further the appraisal by pointing out its advantages and disadvantages. The history and present status of the cooperative retail buying association movement is first described in developing this thesis. This is followed by a discussion of the history, organization and wholesale functions performed by the Northern Wholesale Hardware Company. In each chapter on the wholesale functions of this company a comparison is drawn with drug and grocery cooperatives, as well as others in the hardware field. The material for this thesis was obtained from several sources. Much of it was gathered through members and officials of the company by questionnaires, private interviews, and correspondence. A second source was books and magazine articles on cooperative wholesaling. As a final source, such material as the Federal Trade Commission reports, information obtained from other governmental agencies, and interviews with regular wholesale hardware firms was utilized in the formulation of this study.

The aim of this thesis is to discover the efficacy of the Federal legislation on agricultural credits, particularly of the Agricultural Credits Act of 1923. A short history of the Act is given to show the size of the problem that was given for Congress to solve. This history will also explain why such an incongruous law as the Act of 1923 was passed. The writer is deeply interested in the Pacific North West and in Oregon. That is why the work on future of the Spokane Intermediate Credit Bank, of the Twelfth District is so fully discussed. Greater space is not accorded the National Agricultural Credit Corporations because it is doubtful if any will ever be organized. They cannot compete with the privileged Intermediate Credit Banks.

For over a century, researchers from diverse intellectual disciplines have tried to explain the emergence of regional business clusters. I contribute to research on cluster emergence by applying an institutional logics framework to model how cluster emergence is influenced by such factors as supportive institutional logics, knowledge spillover, labor pooling, and technological uncertainty. This study is guided by the research question: How do institutions, specifically, varying levels of a congruous institutional logic, affect regional cluster emergence?
Using the passage of the 1978 Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA) as a catalyst for business cluster emergence in the renewable energy sector, this study examines the emergence of wind and solar energy manufacturing clusters. I test hypotheses about the positive influences of a congruous institutional logic across U.S. metropolitan statistical areas to see if the relative prevalence of a congruous institutional logic results in more firms and greater levels of clustering. For example, a pro-environmental sentiment among human populations aligns, or in other words, is congruous, with renewable energy manufacturing. I use fixed effects estimation to test several hypotheses regarding positive direct and moderating effects of institutional alignment on cluster emergence. I find that congruous institutional logics have a positive direct influence on clustering, and as technological uncertainty increases, this positive direct influence is enhanced. I find only partial support for the moderating influence of congruous institutional logics on the positive direct effect of positive externalities on clustering. This study contributes to practice and theory by building a model and supporting hypotheses on the influence of institutional fit on regional cluster emergence.

this thesis is basically an analysis of the industrial market for aluminum in the Pacific Northwest. As such it does not include many of the variables that would have to be examined in order to determine the profitability of expansion of aluminum fabricating facilities in the region. The rather important factor of transportation cost is touched on lightly, and the other factors, such as labor costs and local taxation have not been discussed at all. The prime purpose of the study was not to make a thorough analysis of the northwest economy, but, instead, to examine and analyze the principal uses of aluminum in the two state area in hope of being able to establish the locally generated need for a greater supply of raw materials for aluminum product manufacturers. It was necessary to set some geographic limitation on the market in question and, since the bulk of the heavy industry in the Pacific Northwest is located in the states of Oregon and Washington, with the majority being in the latter, it was dedicated that these two states would comprise the area under study. Further limitations were necessary in order to adequately define the demand for aluminum. If all industrial consumers were considered, the considerable amount of double counting would result, so a “consumer of aluminum closed quote has been defined as any firm manufacturing a finished product from aluminum which is, at the time of completion, ready for its final use. Thus, the definition includes the manufacturer of cast aluminum parts, but omits a contractor who places already finished aluminum windows into a new dwelling.

This research investigates evolution of the meanings assigned to the categories that designate and demarcate formal organizations of the same genre or type. I use grounded theory techniques to examine whether and how members and stakeholders relabel organizational categories and ascribe associated new meanings. Specifically, I uncover that what seemed to be an organizational category's change in direct response to the Internet was actually better explained as a confluence of gradual changes in response to socio-cultural, regulatory, and technological pressures. The empirical context for this study consists of the population of privately owned travel agencies as they confronted almost two decades of shifting consumer demands, the aftermath of deregulation, and the emergence of online competition. Data were gathered through interviews with agents and other individuals employed within the travel industry, archival accounts from various print and electronic sources, and nearly two decades of articles published in the category's primary trade journal. I pair discourse analysis of the agents' trade journal articles with other grounded theory techniques to build theory and document mechanisms through which both members and external stakeholders of an organizational category influence the meanings ascribed to a social construct.

This thesis deals primarily with only one of the several forms of business organizations. It has to do with the cooperative form and to a large extent with those cooperations of larger size where the capital investment is relatively high and where there is not usually an intimate relationship between those who own the business from those who manage and operate it. More specifically, the subject matter is a particular problem which has arisen in connection with the corporate form. This problem concerns the disclosure by management to stockholders, bondholders, and those who are interested in becoming such, of the pertinent, vital information about the financial condition and operating results of the business which such persons are entitled to have. The roots of the problem go deep and wide in our economy's. They affect many of us directly and individually because of the widespread ownership of securities. They affect most of us a bit less directly but, nevertheless, materially because of the influence they have upon employment and upon the availability of many things which come to us through the effective operation of large-scale business. They affect the nation as a whole, because the nation’s security and progress are closely tied to an efficient productive capacity and to the welfare and satisfaction of its individual members.

How do organizations assess and explain their performance? Prior studies have attempted to demonstrate that, like individuals, organizations take credit for good performance and blame poor performance on influences in their environment. However, these studies have found only a weak relationship between performance and attribution at the level of the firm. This dissertation seeks to elucidate this relationship by conceptualizing firms as social agents and by combining aspiration and attribution theory for the first time at the level of the firm. Analysis of performance explanations by large, public manufacturing firms in 2004 and 2005 revealed that firms' performance explanations correlated with their cognitive experiences of success and failure. These findings further understanding of organizational cognition, attribution, and image management.

All humans have a need to belong and belongingness at work serves important organizational and personal purposes. However, gig workers face significant challenges to experiencing belongingness at work because their work is highly temporary, project-based, and occurs outside the relational scaffold afforded by organizations. Given these challenges, gig workers frequently engage in online communities that serve critical social and information-sharing functions. In this dissertation, I focus on gig workers’ individual behaviors in online communities related to gig work and analyze how these behaviors impede or further belongingness. Integrating the evolutionary model of loneliness and regulatory focus theory, I propose that loneliness at work motivates gig workers to engage in online communities in different ways that can either impede or facilitate belongingness. Specifically, I hypothesize that gig workers feel less belongingness when engaging in lurking behaviors, more belongingness when engaging in contributing behaviors. To offer practical advice on how to increase belongingness, I develop an intervention designed to increase contributing behaviors that enhance belongingness. Ultimately, I suggest that belongingness will affect withdrawal from work. I test my theoretical model in a ten-day experience sampling study (ESM) with 95 gig workers. My dissertation contributes to an understanding of how modern workers experience belongingness outside of organizations and the impact of online communities in this process.

The dominance of motor vehicle use throughout America reflects a massive government intervention on behalf of automobiles. Congress directs billions of dollars into America's highway system annually, assuming that building new roadways is the best option to move people and goods from one place to another. These policies stand in direct contradiction to today's travel patterns.
This research examines ways to improve federal law to achieve a more sustainable transportation future. First, it identifies the specific provisions in federal transportation law that inhibit the development of "low-build" transportation projects. Second, it describes challenges to halting roadway construction through litigation in federal court.
Understanding the problems of federal transportation law and litigation sheds light on the ways to make positive change in the next federal surface transportation reauthorization. This research culminates in recommendations for how Congress can implement policies that require a comprehensive approach to transportation planning.

One of the top bicycling cities in the United States, Portland, Oregon has used a mixture of bicycle infrastructure to create a cohesive network for bicyclists. Building on their success, in 2010 Portland set forth on an ambitious path to envision their bicycle network in 2030. The primary goal of this plan is to attract the “Interested but Concerned” demographic of bicyclists through an increase of their bicycle boulevard network from 30 miles to 286 miles. However, there has been no direct link between bicycle boulevards and bicycle rates. Therefore, this study analyzes the influence of bicycle boulevards on bicycle-to-work rates using U.S. Census data with Geographic Information Systems data in concert with both ordinary least squares (OLS) regressions and a fixed effects (FE) regression. The OLS and FE models both indicate that there is a statistically significant relationship between bicycle boulevards and bicycle-to-work rates.

Institutions are generally assumed to be stable, but recent research has focused on how that stability may be overturned to create institutional change. The assumption of stability has led to a lack of research on the flip side of change, maintenance, even though we cannot fully understand change without understanding the forces change agents work against. By examining more than a century of American public library discourse, I develop the construct of core ideas and a model of the maintenance of these institutions. Core ideas are those institutionalized ideas at the heart of a field that act as touchstones of a field's work and identity. Like other institutions, core ideas may be both added to and subtracted from a field and require maintenance through reinforcement and reinterpretation to endure. The model of maintenance of core ideas shows how core ideas are maintained in the face of social and technological change through use, as actors draw on core ideas to justify or deny accounts of practice, which reinforces, reinterprets, or undermines existing or proposed core ideas. In developing a model of maintenance I also examine how core ideas illuminate the internal workings of institutional logics and explore how the multivocality of core ideas allows and even supports multiple logics within a field.

Local governments often rely on collaborations with nonprofit organizations to serve “underheard” communities. These collaborations are often resource-intensive, but not well-analyzed. I engage a case study of City of Eugene's efforts to create "Welcoming Parks" for its Latino community to analyze the effects of these collaborations on the equity of government services and policy outcomes. My analysis is based on qualitative analysis of interviews and observations conducted with government staff, nonprofit leaders, community advocates, and community members. It demonstrates that local governments' reliance on nonprofit collaborations to address the needs of their “underheard" communities can lead to inequitable service and policy outcomes. Rather, representation of “underheard” communities within government may be necessary to produce outcomes. This research paves the way for further empirical studies of informal government-nonprofit collaborations and provides suggestions regarding how local governments should work with their communities to achieve equitable service and policy outcomes.

Foreign trade is a system of exchanging
goods and services among the nations. Fundamentally there
is little difference between foreign trade and domestic
trade. The existence of political and geographical boundaries. However, give rise to the difference of customs,
traditions, languages, rules and regulations, markets, currencies and so on. These differences create a number| of
difficult problems in financing foreign trade, such as obtaining credit information, integrity, and management ability of customers in a foreign country.
