Are Correlations Constant? Empirical and Theoretical Results on Popular Correlation Models in Finance
Multivariate GARCH models have been designed as an extension of their univariate counterparts. Such a view is appealing from a modeling perspective but imposes correlation dynamics that are similar to time-varying volatility.

THE ANTIDOTE TO ENVY? – THE ROLE OF SOCIALIZATION IN ALLEVIATING THE NEGATIVE INFLUENCE OF ENVY IN HEADQUARTERS-SUBUNIT ALIGNMENT
This study explores the role of social comparison processes (SCP) in organizations.
