[Abstract] Involvement in sports is considered a powerful way to generate social capital. However, the role of sport engagement in the development of social relationships of older adults has not received much attention. Remarkably, there is a lack of empirical evidence on the quality and diversity of social relations built through active sport participation and spectatorship. This paper attempts to assess the relationship between sport engagement and various measures of network social capital, including the extension and quality of social networks and the heterogeneity of personal relationships. Also, it proposes new and more informative measurements of an individual's quantity and quality of social ties. By analysing data from a survey in Spain (N = 600) and applying logistic regressions, the results show that sport participation and attendance at sporting events are closely related to different dimensions of network social capital. Concerning people who are not actively engaged in sports, more extensive social networks characterise those who frequently attend sporting events. In contrast, active sport participation is associated with the extensity and quality measures of social connectedness, the level of satisfaction with friends and the opportunity to enjoy close relationships. Therefore, this paper provides new evidence on how sport engagement may result in tighter and extensive networks for older adults and serve as support for emphasising sports, physical activity and leisure as strategies for maintaining and boosting older people's social and psychological health., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad, Spain (JMS-S and PR, grant number CSO2017-86178-R); and the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Spain (FL-L, grant number PID2020-115018RB-C31).

Previous research has examined the relationship between CSR and innovation and has suggested that the former might positively affect the latter; however, the impact of CSR on innovation success needs further attention. This study aims to develop a deeper understanding of how environmental and social CSR are related to innovation performance and whether the implementation of organizational practices might moderate this relationship. The results are based on an unbalanced panel of 14,313 observations of 3713 firms covering 2011–2015. Using random-effects probit models and the estimation of average marginal effects (AMEs), this paper contributes to the literature on CSR by explaining how CSR dimensions affect innovation success differently and by addressing how this effect is influenced by organizational innovation. The results show that while environmental CSR orientation proves beneficial for the generation of process innovation, social CSR orientation contributes to the generation of both kinds of technological innovations only when internal organizational practices are implemented. This study provides valuable insights for managers aiming to implement a CSR perspective in their strategies to support the pursuit of innovation., The authors gratefully acknowledge the funding

Despite having consensus on the negative relationship between individuals’ biased attitude towards externally
generated ideas and the applicability of inbound open innovation (OI) as a strategy, we find a gap in the
literature regarding how individual unwillingness – not-invented-here syndrome (NIHS) – actually affects the
innovation performance achieved through collaboration and what management tools are available to counter it.
This study addresses these two questions by testing the relationship between NIHS and innovation performance
and the impact of innovation climate as a way to reduce this negative attitude. Based on quantitative survey data
collected from 250 firms across France, Italy, Spain, and Sweden, we confirm that innovation climate is a useful
management tool for managing NIHS by opening individuals towards external ideas, ultimately helping firms to
improve their innovation performance through collaboration. Most interestingly, we also find that the impact of
NIHS on inbound open innovation performance achieved through a collaborative project is mediated through
external social capital rather than having a direct impact. Since external social capital serves as a link between
two collaborating firms, it’s weakening caused by NIHS, subsequently leads to reduced project performance
achieved through the inbound OI strategy., The authors gratefully acknowledge the funding received through

Purpose: Doctoral programs play a crucial role in promoting innovation and technology transfer in universities. To design these programs effectively and with a co-design perspective, it is essential to consider all stakeholders involved in the process, including teachers, students and employers. The main objective of this study is to enhance postgraduate programs to improve students' employability. Design/methodology/approach: This empirical study was conducted over a three-year period and employed semi-structured interviews as its primary research methodology. In the first phase, 21 in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with managers from various sectors. The second phase involved 20 interviews, and the final phase of the study included 18 interviews with the same managers from previous phases. Findings: The study's main results revealed that the international networks, language proficiency and analytical skills of doctoral students were highly valued by employers. The main findings come from companies with doctoral students. Therefore, the skills were identified during the learning experience of the PhD graduates in the companies. Practical implications: The study's results can guide improvements in postgraduate program curricula and design to enhance students' employability. Originality/value: This research presents a novel approach to its findings. On the one hand, the study's conclusions may provide valuable insights for business agents, encouraging them to hire PhD students. On the other hand, it aims to drive necessary changes that promote more PhD students' focus on non-academic careers, creating significant value for research and innovation in the private sector., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación under Grant PID2020-115018RB-C31.

The main objective of this article is to study the evolution of the Spanish fishing industry, with a specific focus on
examining the correlation between actual catches by Spanish vessels and recorded landings against national
Total Allowable Catches, which may contribute to improving the current state of the Common Fisheries Policy.
Firstly, we offer an overview of the geographical, economic, and legal factors surrounding Spanish fisheries,
along with an examination of the Common Fisheries Policy and relevant international agreements impacting
these fisheries. Subsequently, we analyze three species, namely hake, anchovy, and cod as they are the most
traded fish in the Spanish markets. Thirdly, we conduct an examination to provide information regarding the role
of Common Fishery Policy quotas and to explore potential reasons behind the observed results. The main findings
reveal the identification of a significant lack of alignment between the Common Fishery Policy and its resulting
implementation through the Total Allowable Catches over the last decade., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación under Grant PID2020-115018RB-C31.

With this study, we attempt to understand how emotions influence the intergenerational transfer of knowledge in family businesses from the perspective of emotional heterogeneity. We use a qualitative methodology of multiple case studies to comprehensively address theissue. The results indicate that emotions influence knowledge transmission and learning, sotransmission is more effective in Enmeshed and Balanced family businesses than in Disengaged ones., The authors gratefully acknowledge the funding received through the TED2021-132446B-I00 (MICIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033) research project and the European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR, and the PID2020-115018RB-C31 (AEI/ FEDER, UE) research project financed by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the European Regional Development Funds.

Collaboration with external partners for innovation is seen as a major driver of novel ideas. Previous studies have revealed the importance of collaboration with different partners on innovation performance; however, many questions regarding this association remain unresolved. This study aims to analyse the effects of collaboration with different types of partners on the innovation performance and how the cognitive distance affects this relationship. This study also distinguishes between incremental and radical innovations as outcomes of cooperation, and provides differing implications for the two innovations types. Based on empirical analyses performed on a sample of 12,000 Spanish firms, we found supportive evidence that both radical and incremental innovation require a distinct number of collaboration partners to optimise innovation performance. Further, relationship between the number of partners and innovation performance is moderated by the cognitive distance between the focal firm and the respective partner: positively for radical innovation and negatively for incremental innovation performance., His research was funded and conducted within the frameworks of the following projects: PID2020-115018RB-C31 and (AEI/FEDER, UE) research project financedby the ECO2017-86305-C4-4-R (AEI/FEDER, UE and the European Regional Development Funds; Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation PID2019-105001GB-I00 and PID2020-115018RB-C31(Ministerio de Ciencia eInnovación-Spain; Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities).

The purpose of the paper is to explore the multi-dimensional and intersecting
nature of proximity to drive innovation performance. Applying a multidimensional
proximity framework, the study provides a deeper understanding of
the importance of substitution and overlap mechanisms in the relation between
geographical and cognitive proximity dimensions in innovation performance. The
paper further analyses the moderation effect of organisational innovation in this
relationship. Multivariate analysis proves the interaction effects between geographical
and cognitive proximity, where cognitive proximity both substitutes and
complements geographical proximity. However, external knowledge search for
innovation along proximity dimensions differs depending on the type of innovation.
Our findings corroborate the proximity paradox caused by lock-in effects
with the optimal level of proximity influenced by the interdependencies between
proximity dimensions. This inverse U-shaped relationship is flatter for firms that
have adopted organisational innovation. External knowledge linkages should be
tailored to the favourable characteristic of proximity to enhance firm innovation
performance., The authors acknowledge financial support from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation under Grants PID2020-115018RB-C31 and RTI2018-093791-B-C21. Open accesss funding provided by the Public University of Navarra.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of female CEO board members on listed family firms’ corporate default risk, integrating upper echelons theory with social role theory and the socio-emotional wealth approach and proxying default risk with the Black–Scholes–Merton model. It also searches for possible differences attributable to the type of female CEO.
Design/methodology/approach: This study is applied to a longitudinal sample of listed US family firms. After a preliminary analysis of the main descriptive, several models are estimated with the system GMM estimator, which is a panel data estimator. The models are dynamic, including the lagged value of the dependent variable. In addition, the model estimation is repeated with a different measure of default risk, for robustness.
Findings: This research findings show that default risk diminishes in the presence of a female CEO, whose reduction is even greater if she is a family member. The results are proven to be robust to the measure for proxying default risk.
Originality/value: This study primarily contributes to the existing literature by exploring a possible link between female CEOs, particularly those with a family affiliation, and a lower level of default risk in family firms. It also provides practical implications for policymakers, who would be advised to promote conditions enabling women to contribute towards family business viability. In addition, this study offers encouragement for family business owners to value the potential of their female family members in company succession processes., The authors acknowledge the financial support of the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (Grants PID2019-104304GB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033, PID2020-115018RB-C31, and TED2021-132446B-I00 funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR), and the Ramón Areces Foundation.

In 2018, the media spotlight fell on several high-profile non-profit organizations (NPOs) in
connection with sexual harassment (SH). Since then, a flood of SH cases has severely
impacted the image and reputation of the non-profit sector. NPOs have been accused of
attempting to cover up SH and, in some cases, of leniency towards the harassers. However,
these claims have not been rigorously investigated. In this paper, we study the role and
behavior of harassers and argue that they may target organizations operating in the
nonprofit sector owing to specific conditions that enable them to avoid detection and
punishment. We argue that an environment advantageous to those who perpetrate
harassment is created by several exogenous (non-organizational) factors, such as the
vulnerability of aid recipients, the lack of legal protection of volunteers, and, in some cases,
the cultural tolerance of discrimination against women. From this novel perspective,
traditional anti-SH policies that focus on reacting to harassment and supporting the victim
are viewed as necessary—but insufficient—approaches to the problem. We therefore
propose a series of complementary policies that enable NPOs to adapt their operational
environments in order to curb SH., The authors wish to thank PID2020-114460GB-C32 and PID2020-115018RB-C31 for grants funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033.

El emprendimiento y la empresa familiar ¿son dos disciplinas hermanas o distintas? Ambas son disciplinas con entidad propia, pero desde el inicio ambas han estado fuertemente conectadas. De hecho, las empresas familiares han sido consideradas como un elemento central del proceso emprendedor donde la influencia de la familia es particularmente relevante en las primeras etapas de la creación de la empresa. Sin embargo, la etapa inicial de estas empresas ha sido poco explorada. Este artículo tiene un doble objetivo. En primer lugar, proporciona una pequeña perspectiva histórica de la evolución de las dos disciplinas académicas y sus interrelaciones, y, en segundo lugar, trata de resumir las principales conclusiones de la escasa literatura sobre la perspectiva del arraigo familiar que estudia el binomio familia-emprendimiento. Por último, el trabajo propone diferentes líneas de investigación para futuros estudios relacionados con la empresa familiar y el emprendimiento., Is entrepreneurship and family business two sibling or distinct disciplines? Both are disciplines with their own entity, but from the beginning, they have been strongly connected. In fact, family businesses have been considered a central element of the entrepreneurial process where family influence is particularly relevant in the early stages of business creation. However, the initial stage of these companies has been little explored. This article has a double objective. First, it provides a brief historical perspective on the evolution of the two academic disciplines and their interrelationships, and second, it seeks to summarize the main conclusions of the scarce literature on the perspective of family embeddedness that studies the family-entrepreneurship binomial. Finally, the paper proposes different lines of research for future studies related to family business and entrepreneurship., Los autores agradecen la financiación recibida a través del proyecto de I+D+i TED2021-132446B-I00

This study examines how the integration of corporate social responsibility (CSR) criteria in executive compensation can improve green innovation performance in European countries. Using agency theory and stakeholder theory, and a database of 5,603 firm-year observations from European companies in the period 2012–2021, we find that CSR aligns the interests of senior executives with the company’s green innovation goals through green compensation contracts. We also explore the indirect effect in this relationship and reveal that the implementation of green practices mediates the impact of CSR contracting on green innovation performance. These findings indicate that CSR contracting as an effective governance mechanism could be strengthened by green practices, such as reducing resource use, water efficiency, energy reuse, emission reduction and pollution prevention. This study offers valuable insights for senior executives and policymakers who wish to manage CSR initiatives and green practices to improve their green innovation performance., The authors gratefully acknowledge the funding received through

Within the framework of institutional theory, this study explores how the proactiveness of focal (or buying) manufacturing firms, demonstrated through the adoption of various sustainability practices, influences the sustainability performance of suppliers. Additionally, it examines how the leadership capability of buying firms, particularly in terms of supply chain leadership, can play a crucial role in this link. Through empirical analysis of a sample taken from the fourth round of the High-Performance Management (HPM) project, our study reveals compelling evidence indicating that buying firms, by adopting diverse sustainability practices, such as internal initiatives, monitoring efforts and collaborative approaches with suppliers, are able to create distinct institutional pressures. These pressures serve as a conduit for the diffusion of a shared set of sustainability goals, values and norms among suppliers, ultimately contributing to the development of sustainability competences and improving their overall sustainability performance. Furthermore, our findings suggest that when buying firms undertake a leading position, they can effectively translate isomorphism pressures into sustainability improvements on the supplier side. Overall, this study sheds light on important and understudied aspects of sustainability practices in buyer¿supplier relationships and underscores the critical role that supply chain leadership can play in promoting sustainable practices across the entire supply chain., This research was funded and conducted within the frameworks of the following projects: PID2020-115018RB-C31 and AEI/FEDER, UE research project financed by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades) and the European Regional Development Fund; PID2019-105001GB-I00 (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación—Spain); and ECO2017-86305-C4-4-R (Ministerio de Asuntos Económicos y Transformación Digital, Gobierno de España).

Purpose: This study aims to explore how sustainability drivers interact with national culture to explain the adoption of buyer–supplier environmental sustainability practices. Design/methodology/approach: Drawing on Institutional Theory, this study proposes three sets of hypotheses focused on the role of key cultural dimensions: uncertainty avoidance, power distance and institutional collectivism. It uses a sample of 284 manufacturing plants across three industries and 14 countries to test these hypotheses, using regression analysis. Findings: Findings suggest that national culture matters in the adoption of buyer–supplier environmental practices; however, its effect is contingent upon the particular combination of cultural dimensions and drivers analyzed. Originality/value: This study enhances the understanding of the drivers behind buyer–supplier environmental practices by offering a novel examination of their interaction with national culture. This helps explain the heterogeneity in environmental sustainability adoption across countries., This research was funded and conducted within the frameworks of the following projects: PID2020-115018RB-C31 and (AEI/FEDER, UE) research project financed by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the European Regional Development Funds; PID2019-105001GB-I00 (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación-Spain), ECO 2017–86305-C4-4-R (Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad).

Eradicating poverty is a fundamental objective of social work, both at local and at global levels. After COVID-19, the United Nations Commission for Social Development and Sustainable Development Goals, the global agenda developed by the International Association of Schools of Social Work, the International Council on Social Welfare and the International Federation of Social Workers have placed the fight against poverty and the role of decent work at the forefront of the public agenda. We analyse most recent publications on decent work, highlighting two strategies to promote poverty eradication from social work: participation and education., The authors disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship and/or publication of this article: This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (grant number PID2020-115018RB-C31).

In the context of global concern for the environment and considering the observation that very few manufacturing companies have taken a more proactive position on sustainability, it has been suggested that the stakeholder approach can contribute to the study of sustainability management. Hence, this paper analyzes the relationship between a set of individual stakeholders pressures (STP) from different groups and the adoption and implementation of some specific sets of sustainability practices (SP) in manufacturing: internal and external monitoring and external collaborative. It also contributes to the open debate around the “monolithic” versus differentiated reaction to perceived STP, showing that companies respond selectively to the different stakeholder groups. Finally, this research also considers the possible influence of different country development contexts (developed vs. emerging countries), which may be very informative in the context of the growing globalization of operations. Using a large, worldwide, multicountry, and multi-informant sample of manufacturing plants from three industry sectors located in 15 emerging and developed countries, this study shows that the different stakeholders play different roles in the adoption and implementation of different sustainability practices, thus contributing to the open debate around a suitable balance of stakeholder pressures. This research further contributes to the debate around the convergence and divergence perspectives by supporting the “universal” adoption of sustainability practices (convergence perspective) as no statistical differences are found in stakeholder pressures in different country development contexts., Consejería de Transformacion Economica,

Purpose: Absorptive capacity (AC), the ability to leverage external knowledge for innovation, helps explain the mixed findings on family firms' innovation performance. Our research focuses on the CEO's role - whether family or non-family, and founding or later generation - in influencing AC. We also explore how firm size and environmental dynamism affect these relationships, offering insights into varying AC levels among family firms. Design/methodology/approach: OLS regression models were estimated to test the hypotheses using a sample of 364 family firms in Spain. Findings: Family firms¿ absorptive capacity is greater when the CEO is a family member, and even more so when the family CEO belongs to the founding family generation. While AC diminishes in larger family firms this effect is mitigated when the CEO is a family member. The predicted moderating effect of environmental dynamisms is not supported by the analyses. Originality: This paper adds insights about the drivers of heterogeneity in innovation among family firms, addressing recent calls for more nuanced views of how family members drive the strategic behavior of the business, and incorporating considerations of different types of family firms based on the identity of the firm CEO. The results overall support the theoretical claims, but also open up important questions for future studies., The author gratefully acknowledges the funding received through the TED2021-132446B-I00 (MICIN/

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the link between the adoption of sustainability practices and new product development (NPD) in manufacturing companies. From a triple bottom line (TBL) perspective and considering different theoretical approaches, this study hypothesises on the effect of both internal and external sustainability practices, distinguishing between collaborative and controlling initiatives, on the success of new products. Using a unique database of 281 companies across three industries taken from the fourth round of the High-Performance Manufacturing project, the findings shows that both monitoring and collaborative actions with suppliers demonstrate positive impacts on NPD success. Internal sustainability practices do not have a direct effect on NPD success but are determinant in supporting external sustainability practices., This research was funded and conducted within the frameworks of the following projects: PID2020-115018RB-C31 (AEI/FEDER, UE) research project financed by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the European Regional Development Funds; PID2019-105001GB-I00 (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación-Spain), ECO 2017–86305-C4-4-R (Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad).

Purpose: This paper aims to investigate how home-based telework (HBT) affects job stress. The authors argue that an intrinsic effect of telework like work extension mediates this relationship. Work extension is reflected in two employee behaviours: working in free time and presentism. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed model has been estimated using the Preacher and Hayes bootstrap method for multiple mediation analysis, with 1,000 repetitions. The data used come from the sixth European Working Conditions Survey. Findings: The analysis indicates that HBT does not pose an inherent risk for job stress but causes a change in the employees' behaviour, increasing working in free time and presenteeism and thus job stress. The mediation model indicates that once these behaviours are controlled, the effect of HBT is to reduce stress. Research limitations/implications: The authors argue that companies should focus on human resource practices to control workers' behaviours that have a detrimental effect on job stress while institutions should regulate HBT. Originality/value: The analysis deepens the unclear relationship between HBT and job stress by introducing employees' behaviours concerning work extension into the equation., The authors wish to thank for grants PID 2020-114460GB-C32 and PID 2020-115018RB-C31 funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033.

From the perspective of social work, it is important to analyse food insecurity before and during the COVID-19, identify the best practices and how social work can contribute to improving living conditions. Using a meta-analysis, this article reviews how food security is addressed in the literature to better inform social policies from a social work perspective. A search of the literature revealed 217 articles between 2010 and 2021. The descriptors for the search were food security, food aid and social work. The main results are the identification of key aspects to inform social policies and promote sustainable social change worldwide., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (grant number PID2020-115018RB-C31).

This paper aims to analyse the relationship between perceived health and earnings across Europe. Empirical analysis is based on the last published round from the European Working Conditions Survey (N = 43,850) and offers updated evidence on the effect of earnings on perceived health in 35 countries. The main findings show a positive and significant relationship between earnings and health, which is consistent with the existing literature. Moreover, health seems to be U-shaped relative to earnings. On the other hand, age is negatively related to health, which is consistent with previous research. This paper shows the health differences between countries, where cultural, geographic, and economic differences imply health inequalities across countries. From a practical perspective, understanding the dynamics of perceived health and earnings’ processes can contribute to health policy., This research was funded by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación under Grant PID2020-115018RB-C31.

Social workers worldwide must be concerned about how to overcome
poverty after the COVID-19. The 61st Session of United
Nations Commission for Social Development has highlighted
decent work as a priority for social workers and social welfare
practitioners after de COVID-19. Decent work is a key strategy to
overcome poverty in the post-pandemic time. A systematic review
of the literature revealed 225 articles from 2020 on this topic. The
descriptors were social work, decent work, good work, decent job,
good job, decent employment, and good employment. The results
obtained allow us to establish some recommendations to address
poverty from the perspective of social work, designing intervention
strategies to overcome inequalities., The work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación [PID2020-115018RB-C31].

The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly affected the global mobility (GM) policies of multinational enterprises
(MNEs). Through interviews with policy decision-makers in 32 companies, we applied Interpretative Phenomenological
Analysis to examine how the pandemic accelerated changes in MNE policies and the management of
GM. Our framework builds on contingency theory, traditionally concerned with aligning organizational policies
with macro- and meso-level contextual factors. We extend this by integrating micro-level individual variables,
such as career aspirations and well-being, as contingent factors influencing GM practices. There is variation in
GM responses in relation to the volume of GM activities, GM-related policies, investments in digitalization and
technology, and variations in mobility types. We observed a potential paradigm shift that affords employees
greater agency in their global mobility paths, thereby greater granularity to contingency theory. This nuanced
approach opens new research avenues and equips organizational leaders with a comprehensive set of variables
for GM decision-making. Our findings indicate lasting global mobility changes but foresee gradual implementation
due to associated risks., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación [Grant number PID2020-115018RB-C31]. This work was supported by the Liikesivistysrahasto (Foundation for Economic Education). [Grant number 22-12559].

Purpose: This article aims to analyse the impact of data analytics and robots on firms' performance across Europe.
Design/methodology/approach: This paper aims to examine the impact of data analytics and robots on companies' performance, multilevel models are estimated. Empirical research is based on the fourth round of the European Company Survey 2019.
Findings: The main findings show that human resource management practices (HRMP) are relevant to explain firms' profits. Therefore, human resource practices and technology are complementary resources to achieve higher results. A positive and significant relation between profits and the use of data analytics to monitor employee performance was found. In addition, positive and significant relations between human resource practices and profitability were obtained.
Practical implications: From a practical perspective, this article helps to understand the role of technological and human factors in profitability, and it emphasises the relevance of human resource strategies and technology to accomplish business outcomes.
Originality/value: This study’s findings reinforce the concept of Industry 5.0 which highlights the role of humans in the digitalisation process., This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion under Grant PID2020-115018RB-C31.
