O impacto da orientação para o mercado sobre o desempenho financeiro: as concessionárias de veículos da Ford e Volkswagen

Este relatório trata de uma pesquisa sobre o Impacto da Orientação para o Mercado sobre o Desempenho Financeiro. Foi realizada uma revisão teórica e seguiu-se o delineamento de um modelo conceitual. Tal modelo foi testado empiricamente com os dados de uma amostra de 294 executivos de concessionárias de veículos da Ford e Volkswagen operando no Brasil, utilizando-se do método de modelagem de equações estruturais. Em duas etapas anteriores, a mesma análise foi aplicada a amostras ligadas à Fiat e General Motors. Desta feita, o ajustamento global do Modelo revelou-se pequeno. Apenas o vínculo causal entre o componente Orientação para a Concorrência da Orientação para o Mercado mostrou-se como causa significante do Desempenho Financeiro. Os resultados são discutidos à luz da literatura, sendo suas implicações avaliadas. Mais pesquisas são necessárias para compreender tais complexos fenômenos.

Validation of the MEASURE automobile emissions model : a statistical analysis

The Mobile Emissions Assessment System for Urban and Regional Evaluation (MEASURE) model provides an external validation capability for hot stabilized option; the model is one of several new modal emissions models designed to predict hot stabilized emission rates for various motor vehicle groups as a function of the conditions under which the vehicles are operating. The validation of aggregate measurements, such as speed and acceleration profile, is performed on an independent data set using three statistical criteria. The MEASURE algorithms have proved to provide significant improvements in both average emission estimates and explanatory power over some earlier models for pollutants across almost every operating cycle tested.

Book review: Ford, R.C., & Peeper, W.C. 2008. Managing Destination Marketing Organizations. Orlando: ForPer Publications

This volume represents the proceedings of the 13th ENTER conference, held at Lausanne, Switzerland during 2006. The conference brought together academics and practitioners across four tracks, which were eSolutions, refereed research papers, work-in-progress papers, and a Ph.D. workshop. This proceedings contains 40 refereed papers, which is less than the 51 papers presented in 2005. However, the editors advise that the scientific committee was stricter than in previous years, to the extent that the acceptance rate was 50%. A significant change in the current proceedings is the inclusion of extended abstracts of the 23 work-in-progress presentations. The papers cover a diverse range of topics across 16 research streams. This reviewer has adopted the approach of succinctly summarising the contribution of each of the 40-refereed papers, in the order in which they appear...
