We also present in this edition the reviewers, Action Editors and Associate Editors that helped us during 2017. BAR could not be possible without your volunteer and relevant work. We hope we can continue to count on you in 2018, always raising the BAR! Let\u2019s now turn our attention to the five quality studies that comprise this current issue.<\/p>\n<p>The first article \u201cExploring Risk Perception and Degree of Internationalization of Brazilian Small-and-Medium Enterprises\u201d by Leandro Rodrigo Canto Bonfim, Gabrielle Ribeiro Rodrigues Silva, Paulo Henrique M\u00fcller Prado and Gustavo Abib, investigates managerial risk perception regarding internationalization of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Brazilian context. Results suggest that managers\u2019 tolerance for ambiguity is only significant for explaining risk perception for the managers with a preference for a deliberative style and that the investigated Brazilian SMEs presented a higher degree of internationalization even when their managers perceived higher levels of risk.<\/p>\n<p>The second article \u201cThe Relationship between Sentiment and Risk in Financial Markets\u201d by Ana Luiza Paraboni, Marcelo Brutti Righi, Kelmara Mendes Vieira and Vin\u00edcius Girardi da Silveira, estimates association coefficients between measures of market sentiment and risk in the U.S., German and Chinese markets. Authors concluded that observations of market sentiment as measured by social media data show a consistent relationship with measures of financial risk. These results corroborate, in terms of decision making, the findings of Charoenrook (2005) and Yazdipour (2011), among others. Nonetheless, the results conflict with those obtained by Andersen and Nowak (2013), who argue that the relationships should have signs that are the inverse of those that we have found.<\/p>\n<p>The third article \u201cSponsor Bias in Pension Fund Administrative Expenses: The Brazilian Experience\u201d by Claudio Marcio Pereira da Cunha, investigates sponsor bias, hypothesizing that it may originate from the omission of relevant control variables, specifically variables for location of headquarters and the level of outsourced services. The findings did not support the hypothesis of political bias in administrative expenses of Brazilian closed pension funds, but that the sponsor bias may be driven by characteristics of the pension funds omitted in previous literature.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth article \u201cCultural Meanings and Consumers\u2019 Discourses about Their Brand Abandonment\u201d by Fillipe Diniz and Maribel Carvalho Suarez, investigates consumers who abandoned previously consumed brands in two distinct product categories, soft drinks and automobiles. The analysis illustrates cultural discourses that consumers use to give meanings and socially negotiate their brand abandonment. It presents three types of brand abandonment: (1) contingent, (2) balanced and (3) aversive.<\/p>\n<p>The fifth article \u201cResponsible Leadership Research: a Bibliometric Review\u201d by T\u00e2nia de Matos Gomes Marques, Nuno Rosa Reis and Jorge Gomes, analyzes the use of responsible leadership in management research. Using a sample of 64 articles published in SSCI-indexed journals over 10 years (2006-2016). Six distinct factors have emerged, denoting the groups of studies devoted to the evolution of leadership, transformational leadership, stakeholder theory and leadership, conceptualization and understanding of the topic, and roles of responsible leaders. Concerning the most influential works on responsible leadership, the article from Maak and Pless (2006) has been cited by almost half of the sample, therefore showing its centrality in the field.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that you will find the articles interesting to help with your learning experience and future research use.<\/p>\n<h3>References<\/h3>\n<p>ANDERSEN, J.
