Abstract

The Vertical File Index, Consumer Information Catalog, and Information America are rich sources of free and inexpensive information. An analysis of the average price per item and a determination of the percentage of free materials offered by these three resources were performed on samples spaced at five‐year intervals over the past 40 years. The prices of inexpensive materials and the percentage of free material available from these titles have remained nearly stable over the past 40 years. This is especially true if inflation and the relative buying power of the 1997 dollar are factored in. These three sources have provided, and continue to provide, a consistent supply of free and inexpensive materials for vertical file collections on a tight budget.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to explore the mediating role of emotions in processing scent information in consumer research, using event-related potential (ERP)-based neuroscience methods, while considering individual differences in sense of smell.

Design/methodology/approach

Prior research on olfaction and emotions in marketing has revealed mixed findings on the relationship between olfaction and emotion. The authors review earlier studies and present a neuroscience experiment demonstrating the benefits of ERP methods in studying the automatic processing of emotions.

Findings

Results demonstrate how emotional processes occurring within 1s of stimulus exposure differ across individuals with varying olfactory abilities. Findings reveal an automatic suppression mechanism for individuals sensitive to smell.

Research limitations/implications

Scent-induced emotions demonstrated through the use of ERP-based methods provide insights for understanding automatic emotional processes and reactions to ambient scents by consumers in the marketplace.

Practical implications

Findings show an automatic suppression of emotions triggered by scent in individuals sensitive to smell. Marketers and retailers should consider such reactions when evaluating the use of olfactory stimuli in promotional and retail strategies.

Originality/value

The authors review past literature and provide an explanation for the disparate findings in the olfaction–emotion linkage, by studying individual differences in response to scent in the marketplace. This is one of the first papers in marketing to introduce the application of ERP in studying consumer-relevant behavior and provide technical and marketing-specific considerations for both academic and market researchers.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to conduct a rigorous bibliometric analysis of workplace deviant behavior (WDB) to identify prevailing trends, patterns, and themes in the field. The analysis seeks to outline the domain’s intellectual and social structure and provide a research roadmap.

Design/methodology/approach

The study employed a systematic procedure to scrutinize research scenario. A search in the Scopus database produced 1,677 papers from reputable publications spanning 42 years (1976–2023). Science mapping techniques, including co-citation, co-authorship, and co-occurrence analysis, were used to obtain insights into the research landscape. By implementing these techniques, the authors comprehensively understood the interconnectedness and patterns within the research field.

Findings

This study demonstrates an apparent surge in the overall number and impact of studies conducted on WDB, most of which are published in prestigious publications. Furthermore, the findings support Bradford’s law, defying Lotka’s law in this field. Through co-citation analysis, four clusters were identified in this area. Subsequently, co-occurrence was used to pinpoint several strong themes. Finally, the authors of the USA and China demonstrated the most significant collaboration.

Originality/value

This study is a pioneering approach to applying bibliometric analysis to explore WDB research; it addresses a gap in the comprehensive review of earlier research and contributes to enriching the body of knowledge in this area. The results of this research are helpful for practitioners, scholars and future researchers in this subject, even if it has its roots in scientometrics.
