Publications Database
Welcome to the new Schulich Peer-Reviewed Publication Database!
The database is currently in beta-testing and will be updated with more features as time goes on. In the meantime, stakeholders are free to explore our faculty’s numerous works. The left-hand panel affords the ability to search by the following:
- Faculty Member’s Name;
- Area of Expertise;
- Whether the Publication is Open-Access (free for public download);
- Journal Name; and
- Date Range.
At present, the database covers publications from 2012 to 2020, but will extend further back in the future. In addition to listing publications, the database includes two types of impact metrics: Altmetrics and Plum. The database will be updated annually with most recent publications from our faculty.
If you have any questions or input, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Fawang Zhang, Yuhang Hu, and Chris M. Bell (2026). "The Double-Edged Sword Effect of Career Calling on Occupational Well-Being Among Grassroots Civil Servants: A Moderated Mediation Model", Current Psychology, 45, 86.
Abstract
Previous studies have primarily focused on the positive effects of career calling, yet some research highlights a potential negative impact on occupational well-being. Based on conservation of resources theory, we explored the double-edged sword effect of career calling on Chinese grassroots civil servants’ occupational well-being (job satisfaction and emotional exhaustion), as well as its underlying mechanisms and boundary conditions. A sample of 430 Chinese grassroots civil servants anonymously completed the survey. The results indicated that career calling was positively related to resilience, which in turn correlated with both greater job satisfaction and lower emotional exhaustion (positive pathway). Simultaneously, career calling was positively related to workload, which in turn correlated with higher emotional exhaustion (negative pathway). Unexpectedly, workload showed no significant association with job satisfaction. Perceived organizational support significantly moderated the positive pathway of career calling but not the negative pathway. These findings reveal a double-edged sword effect of career calling on occupational well-being that has practical implications for enhancing employees’ occupational well-being.Cesare Amatulli, Alessandro M. Peluso, Andrea Sestino, Gianluigi Guido, Russell Belk (2023). "The Influence of a Lockdown on Consumption: An Explorative Study on Generation Z’s Consumers", Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services, 73, 103358.
Abstract
The health crisis due to the recent pandemic influenced our lives and, consequently, our consumption. Despite prior investigations on exogenous crises and their effects on consumption, no studies to date have examined consumers' coping strategies to health crises that require social distancing and, more particularly, responses to such crises by focusing on Generation Z. The present study fills this gap by exploring how consumption evolved during a lockdown as a consequence of these consumers' attempts to cope with the crisis. Through a qualitative approach based on grounded theory and projective techniques, findings shed light on new meanings of resilience and nostalgia, which seem to characterize Generation Z's consumers' desires during a lockdown. Importantly, we introduce the concept of responsible hedonic consumption, which stems from Generation Z consumers' desire to search for experiences that are pleasant but also compatible with personal and societal wellbeing.Belk, R. and Bhattacharyya, A. (2019). "Consumer Resilience and Subservience in Technology Consumption by the Poor", Consumption, Markets and Culture, 42 (5/6), 489-507.
Abstract
Consumer technology theorists have explored technology consumption primarily through a de-linked, individualistic lens. We augment existing theories on technology consumption by widening the scope of the theorizing lens to include the role of class-based societal domination on consumption by the oppressed. We show that the poor respond to oppression by practices that go beyond non-compliance and subterfuge. We highlight the overlooked phenomenon of Consumer Resilience, and unveil the practices of Subservience in technology consumption by the poor in India. These are consumption practices that help the dominated classes appease those dominating them, at the expense of their own dignity and well-being.Ahmed, M., Kristal, M. and Pagell, M. (2014).
