Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT This study explores the impact of social capital on where a firm is headquartered regarding its labour investment decisions. We show that firms located in counties with high levels of social capital avoid both overinvestment and underinvestment, and thus have more efficient labour investments. We also find that social capital, as an external factor that mitigates conflict, has a stronger effect on reducing inefficient labour investments when a firm is more likely to suffer from agency issues. Overall, our results show that social capital plays a vital role in increasing trust by reducing agency‐infused actions, therefore ensuring efficient investments in labour resources.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
