From the sustainability paradigm, schools are currently committed to offering inclusive education for everyone. Nonetheless, certain forms of lack of attention to the diversity of needs in some education systems are observed, which imply situations of exclusion and barriers to providing quality education. It is precisely for this reason that the present research work aims to analyse the relations among schools' limitations to cover the diversity …
How Much Does the Business Development of Circular Eco‐Efficient Practices Improve by Shaking Stakeholders up
European firms are currently in a process of transition toward a circular economy, which is expected to guarantee sustainable growth over time. Developing eco‐efficient practices is a necessary step in this transition.

Past literature has evidenced the impact of stakeholder environmental pressure …
Navigating toward the promised land of digitalization and sustainability convergence
In recent years, companies have updated their strategic goals, adding the goal of digitalization to the already commonly accepted goal of sustainability. The convergence between these two strategic goals, digitalization, and sustainability (DS) convergence, is the complete and conjoint attention to both strategic goals. This paper analyzes this phenomenon in depth by studying the implementation of sustainable and digital measures in companies. In…
Perceived barriers and needs of teachers in inclusive schools and their relationship with transformation processes
In the transformation towards inclusive education, teachers are professionals who research, reflect on, and identify the conditions that hinder their development and that of their students. This study focused on a population of pupils with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It aimed to apply a quantitative methodology to analyze the relationships existing among the barriers perceived in the teaching-learning process, teacher needs, and transformativ…
Desarrollo del comportamiento proambiental en los individuos y sus determinantes
Este artículo analiza el comportamiento proambiental en individuos ofreciendo una clasificación del comportamiento según la diversidad/ intensidad de las acciones ambientales emprendidas, y explicando el desarrollo del comportamiento pro-ambiental y algunos de los factores que lo determinan. Mediante análisis cluster y modelos de ecuaciones estructurales, aplicado al Estudio 2837 del CIS, se obtiene una clasificación en cinco grupos de individuos…
Are Mediterranean Nonprofits Adopting the Social Enterprise Model
The social enterprise model, which is characterized by economic, social, and governance dimensions, has become a key aspect of modern welfare states in Europe. Despite its potential to increase revenue diversification for nonprofits, particularly through commercial income, its effects in the context of Mediterranean countries within the European Union are untested. This study aims to examine the adoption of the social enterprise model by Mediterr…
Emotional well-being and social reinforcement as predictors of motivation and academic expectations
Nowadays there is a tendency to highlight the significant contribution of students' socio-emotional perceptions about academic motivation and expectations in Higher Education. This study aims to analyze the relationships among emotional well-being, desire for social reinforcement, intrinsic motivation, the perceived value of the task, and academic expectations. To do this, 455 university students from the Spanish educational system filled out an …
Is It Possible to Change from a Linear to a Circular Economy? An Overview of Opportunities and Barriers for European Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise Companies
The Circular Economy is a paradigm shift attempting to replace the end-of-life concept with reducing, reusing, recycling and recovering materials and to slow down, close and narrow material and power loops. This concept is much discussed in the academic literature, but limited progress has been accomplished so far regarding its empirical analysis. The objective of this work is to study circular economy practices and analyze in depth the circular …
Twenty Years of Research on the Relationship Between Economic and Social Performance
Social Investment in Spain
Solidarity mutual funds (SMFs) are a financial product oriented toward funding social economy organizations (SEOs). The main characteristic of these mutual funds, known in other countries as social investment, is that part of their management fees is allocated to support SEOs. In Spain, the criteria used in the allocation process of these funds have not been studied. The aim of this paper is to analyze the decision model of SMFs. To this end, we …
The Slaughtered and the Survivors
The objective of this study is to analyze the aspects that allowed a critical part of Social Economy Organizations (SEOs) to survive a recession period, especially participation in collaborative networks. The financial stress of an SEO will depend on the resources and capabilities available to the organization. To analyze the financial stress of Spanish SEOs, we defined a sample of 714 SEOs. Approximately half of these organizations suffered from…
Pro-Environmental Change and Short- to Mid-Term Economic Performance
The aim of this study is to contribute empirically to the understanding of the economic effects of pro-environmental change in firms. First, we analyse whether pro-environmental changes performed in different sections of firms’ value chain (products, processes and supply and distribution channels) generate positive economic returns in the short- to mid-term. Second, we analyse whether measures implemented by firms to improve environmental perform…
Moderating the Relationship Between Price and Perceived Value of Ethical Products
Job Stress Across Gender
This study aims to analyse whether any differences exist between the genders with respect to the effect of perceived Job Demands, Control and Support (JDCS model) on how individuals reach high levels of job stress. To do this, the perceived risk of suffering an illness or having an accident in the workplace is used as an outcome measure. The study is based on the First Survey on Working Conditions in Andalusia, which has a sample of 5,496 men and…
El modelo de demandas-control-apoyo y su relación con el riesgo percibido de enfermedad-accidente. Una aplicación a la Comunidad Autónoma andaluza
El presente trabajo analiza de qué modo los componentes del modelo de Demandas-Control-Apoyo-JDC(-S) influyen en el riesgo percibido de enfermedad o accidente en el lugar de trabajo y, en concreto, el papel del Control y del Apoyo como variables moduladoras entre las Demandas y el Riesgo percibido. Para ello se ha analizado la estructura dimensional de las componentes de dicho modelo a partir de la Primera Encuesta Andaluza de Condiciones de Trab…
Job satisfaction
