87Factors that Drive Chinese Listed Companies in Voluntary Disclosure of Environmental InformationJournal of Business Ethics 109 (3): 309-321. 2012.Based on the institutional theory, this article attempts to examine two consecutive questions regarding the impact of various factors on corporate decision in environmental information disclosure (EID): (1) whether or not to disclose; and (2) the level of disclosure. The relevance of these factors is empirically tested using data collected from publicly listed manufacturing companies from 2006 to 2008 in China. Some interesting findings appear. We find that firms that are state-owned, those that…Read more

61Stock Market’s Reaction to Disclosure of Environmental Violations: Evidence from China (review)Journal of Business Ethics 107 (2): 227-237. 2012.The stock market’s reaction to information disclosure of environmental violation events (EVEs) is investigated multi-dimensionally for Chinese listed companies, including variables such as pollution types, information disclosure sources, information disclosure levels, modernization levels of the region where the company locates, ultimate ownership of the company, and ownership held by the largest shareholder. Using the method of event study, daily abnormal return (AR) and accumulative abnormal r…Read more

60Whether Top Executives' Turnover Influences Environmental Responsibility: From the Perspective of Environmental Information Disclosure (review)Journal of Business Ethics 114 (2): 341-353. 2013.We have empirically examined the relationship between top executives’ turnover and the corporate environmental responsibility by identifying the influence of ten specific turnover reasons resulting in the chairman’s departure and two important types of chairman’s succession. Using a sample of 782 manufacturing listed companies across 3 years in China, we find that the corporate environmental responsibility is negatively associated with the involuntary and negative turnover (i.e., dismissal, heal…Read more

33Lawyers in Chinese CultureArchives de Philosophie du Droit 64 (1): 269-288. 2023.After more than 40 years of development, China has established a relatively complete system of lawyers, including laws and regulations, a unified qualification examination, and lawyers associations. Today, there are nearly 600,000 lawyers working in various fields. However, the Communist regime in China has never adopted the so-called Western values of freedom and equality, the guarantee of human rights, and the rule of law, while the socialist ideology emphasizes the obedience of the individual…Read more

6© 2016 American Chemical Society.Layered transition metal chalcogenides with large spin orbit coupling have recently sparked much interest due to their potential applications for electronic, optoelectronic, spintronics, and valleytronics. However, most current understanding of the electronic structure near band valleys in momentum space is based on either theoretical investigations or optical measurements, leaving the detailed band structure elusive. For example, the exact position of the conduc…Read more

5© 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, WeinheimAll transparent conducting materials of technological practicality are n-type; the inferior conductivity of p-type TCMs has limited their adoption. In addition, many relatively high-performing p-type TCMs require synthesis temperatures >400 °C. Here, room-temperature pulsed laser deposition of copper-alloyed zinc sulfide thin films is reported. For 0.09 ≤ x ≤ 0.35, CuxZn1-xS has high p-type conductivity, up to 42 S cm−1 at x = 0.30, with an optica…Read more

6A Grain Output Combination Forecast Model Modified by Data Fusion AlgorithmJournal of Intelligent Systems 27 (2): 303-315. 2018.To deal with the lack of accuracy and generalization ability in some single models, grain output models were built with lots of relevant data, based on the powerful non-linear reflection of the back-propagation neural network. Three kinds of grain output models were built and took advantage of – particle swarm optimization algorithm, mind evolutionary algorithm, and genetic algorithm – to optimize the BP neural network. By the use of data fusion algorithm, the outcomes of different models can be…Read more
