BUSINESS MANAGEMENT THEORIES AND PRACTICES IN A DYNAMIC COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT
Abstract
We studied the problem of how to identify the most impactful papers of a scientific field, for longitudinal bibliometric analyses or systematic literature reviews' purposes. We show that using raw citation counts, the most popular approach, it is not suitable to compare papers from different periods. Other approaches, such as the use of normalized citations by the paper's exposure time, or by the annual average citations of the area, although improving the selection quality, do not lead to sufficiently homogeneous results in terms of citation counts and number of papers published per year. As an alternative, we propose a percentile citation-based method and compare it to the commonly used approaches, for the Top100, and the Top500 in a sample of 25144 papers. This sample was collected from the Scopus database, by selecting the top 10% sources titles in the period 1987-2015 in the Archaeology field. Our results show that the choice of the right normalization metric to be used in the ranking of the impact of the papers is crucial, since it may privilege certain periods, while neglecting others. Based on our results, we argue that this does not happen with our approach, the percentile method.

Abstract
Citation analysis has been used to compare researchers, fields, institutions and countries. However, not much has been done to compare citations of papers belonging to different databases and published in different years. This comparison could play a relevant role in many systematic literature reviews concerned with the growth, development, and changes of a particular scientific subject. This study aims to examine whether we can use the percentile approach to compare the number of citations from papers in different databases. We argue that this method can convert citations from different databases when there are same articles belonging to more than one database. We apply the method on Thomson Reuters' Web of Science and Elsevier's Scopus databases because they are the leading databases of scholarly impact. In this study we use two different Scopus subject area: Engineering - Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering; and Arts and Humanities -Archaeology. The analysis comprises articles published for the time period 1987-2017, of journals in the Scopus top 10%, corresponding to approximately 152,000 papers.

Abstract
This study examines the association between different types of dependency on resources and/or pressures from the international community and the reporting practices on the fight against corruption of companies in an emerging country setting, that of Turkey. More specifically, we focus on the influence of multinationality, cross-listing, and membership of the United Nations Global Compact on this type of reporting. We use ordinal regression analysis to explore the association between the three factors mentioned above and anti-corruption reporting for a sample of Turkish firms on the Borsa Istanbul 100 index, while controlling for some other factors likely to influence anti-corruption reporting. Findings show a low level of reporting. They also suggest that companies with their shares cross-listed and companies which are members of the Uited Nations Global Compact do present higher levels of anticorruption reporting than their counterparts.
