• Do We Need to Distance Ourselves from the Distance Concept? Why Home and Host Country Context Might Matter More Than (Cultural) Distance (2015, methodology): “Geographical distance, institutional distance (measured as differences in education and differences in political systems), and language distance were modeled after Dow and Karunaratna (2006) and Dow and Larimo (2009).”
• Added Psychic Distance Stimuli and MNE Performance: Performance Effects of Added Cultural, Governance, Geographic, and Economic Distance in MNEs' International Expansion (2014, unknown): “As Dow and Larimo (2009) have argued by relying on PDS rather than on PPD problems associated with the measurement of the latter may be circumvented.”
• The PD scale: a measure of psychic distance and its impact on international marketing strategy (2011, background): “It is important to clarify that the psychic distance stimuli is not a direct measure of psychic distance but a broad range of exogenous national-level factors, which influence the perceptions of psychic distance (Dow and Larimo, 2009).”
• Exit from a Foreign Market: Do Poor Performance, Strategic Fit, Cultural Distance, and International Experience Matter? (2015, background): “…enables MNCs to develop knowledge and capabilities that help them acquire legiti - macy in the foreign market (Cho and Padmanabhan 2005), thus reducing the uncertainty and perceived risk about foreign markets and operations that result from unfamiliarity with such activities (Dow and Larimo 2009).”
• The Concept of Distance in International Business Research: A Review and Research Agenda (2016, unknown): “While some studies found a moderating effect of country risk, (Brouthers and Brouthers 2001; Rothaermel et al. 2006), others fail to do so (Agar- wal 1994; Dow and Larimo 2009; Meschi and Riccio 2008).”
