A basic assumption of the strategic monetary policy literature that the monetary authority and the public are aware of the strategic interdependence between them is tested. Monetary policy games assume that the monetary authority chooses an inflation rate that is a function of the public's expected inflation rate and the public realizes that such an inflation rate chosen by the monetary authority is a function of its beliefs. An extension of Cukierman and Meltzer's model of ambiguity and credibility in monetary policy provides evidence of strategic interaction in monetary policy.

Accountability is viewed as a fundamental principle of organization theory, yet theoretical and empirical research on this important construct has lagged behind its pivotal role in organizations. The present study tested portions of a model of accountability, examining job and organizational characteristics as predictors and employee influence tactics as outcomes of accountability. Accountability demonstrated significant positive relationships with hierarchical level and employee influence tactics, and a negative relationship with job ambiguity. Furthermore, an accountability X job ambiguity interaction was found on employee influence indicating that under low job ambiguity, increases in accountability are associated with greater use of influence tactics. Implications of the results for...

Since the mid-1980s, public universities across the country have routinely, and often unapologetically, restricted their students' expression. In order to create welcoming and safe environments for their students, universities regulate student speech by promulgating civility codes; banning verbal harassment; censoring the student press; implementing overbroad time, place, and manner restrictions; and denying funding to student groups with disfavored views.1 An important ambiguity in the Supreme Court's jurisprudence enables this regulation to occur: specifically, the question of whether the First Amendment standards developed for secondary and primary schools apply to universities.2 Since it first addressed the university,3 the Court has conceptualized it as possessing a distinct funct...
