- PublicationOpen AccessVariable selection for classification and forecasting of the family firm's socioemotional wealth(WILEY, 2023-06-29) Álvarez Díez, Susana; Baixauli Soler, Juan Samuel; Belda Ruiz, María; Sánchez Marín, Gregorio; Organización de Empresas y FinanzasSocioemotional wealth (SEW) refers to those family-centered goals that are likely to have a major influence on the strategic decision-making process and performance of family firms. Many studies have used indirect indicators related to family involvement in ownership and management to measure SEW; meanwhile, others have developed scales to directly measure the level and importance of SEW in family firms. Limitations of both indirect and direct measures of SEW lead empirical research on SEW to be under threat. In the current study, we use random forests to identify the important indicators related to financial and economic decisions, as well as family related measures, for explaining the family firms' SEW and to design a good prediction model using the smallest set of nonredundant indicators. Our results show that the model that exhibits the minimum out-of-bag sample (OOB) error rate includes variables that refer to the presence of family members in the firm's management positions, long-term nonfinancial debt, personnel expenditures, longterm financial investments, short-term financial debt, average storage period, and accounts receivables. For prediction, the model with a reasonably low estimated classification error includes only three variables, which refer to the presence of family members in the firm's management positions, long-term nonfinancial debt, and accounts receivables.
- PublicationOpen AccessDataset on Spanish medium-sized family firms: linking socioemotional wealth, HRM practices, and financial indicators(Elsevier, 2026-01-19) Baixauli Soler, Juan Samuel; Belda Ruiz, María; Lozano Reina, Gabriel; Peláez León, Juan David; Sánchez Marín, Gregorio; Organización de Empresas y Finanzas; Facultad de Economía y EmpresaThis article presents a dataset on 508 medium-sized Spanish family firms, collected between March and June 2016 through structured telephone interviews with CEOs or HR directors. The questionnaire covered four dimensions: family involvement and socioemotional wealth (SEW), human resource management (HRM) practices, financial strategies, and managerial demographics. To complement survey data, financial indicators were extracted from the SABI (Sistema de Análisis de Balances Ibéricos) database. The dataset integrates subjective managerial assessments with objective firm-level information, offering a unique resource for research on family business management, HRM, and financial policies. Variables include firm ownership and management, generational structures, SEW priorities, human capital and HRM practices, financial goals and capital access, as well as managers’ demographic characteristics. The database is released in cleaned, anonymized, and fully documented form (together with the questionnaire and a detailed codebook), enabling replication, comparative studies, and meta-analyses on family firms and related organizational topics.
- PublicationOpen AccessNext Generation EU and industrial transformation: evidence from Spain(Elsevier, 2026-01-06) Lozano Reina, Gabriel; Sánchez Marín, Gregorio; Baixauli Soler, Juan Samuel; Organización de Empresas y Finanzas; Facultad de Economía y EmpresaNext Generation EU (NGEU) funds represent a large-scale public investment aimed at mitigating the economic impact of COVID-19 and advancing industrial modernization across the European Union. This study analyzes their early effects in Spain through three objectives: (i) to provide an integrated overview of the design and industrial orientation of the Spain Can Plan, including the role of Industrial Policy Spain 2030 and PERTEs as mission-oriented instruments; (ii) to examine the macro-level implementation of NGEU funds across strategic policy levers, beneficiaries, and regions; and (iii) to assess how sectoral patterns and firm-level characteristics shape the absorption of support. Evidence from the ELISA and SABI databases shows pronounced territorial and sectoral asymmetries, with energy-related and capital-intensive activities receiving a high share of resources. At the firm level, funding allocation is closely linked to pre-existing structural capabilities, whilst post-COVID financial indicators point to improvements in profitability, productivity, and financial stability. The study concludes with policy recommendations to strengthen Spain’s industrial modernization and its strategic positioning in the global economy.
- PublicationOpen AccessInfluence of family-centered goals on dividend policy in family firms: a socioemotional wealth approach(Springer, 2021-02-17) Belda Ruiz, María; Sánchez Marín, Gregorio; Baixauli Soler, Juan Samuel; Organización de Empresas y FinanzasSocioemotional wealth (SEW) preservation is likely to be a key determinant for family firms to shape their dividend policy. This paper analyzes how family-centered goals captured by SEW influence on dividend policy in private family firms, exploring as well the moderating role on these relationships of family involvement in management, generational stage, and firm hazard. Results indicate a negative association between SEW preservation and both the likelihood of giving dividends and the amount of dividend paid. This negative relationship is stronger when the CEO is a family member, in early generational stages and when the firm faces greater performance hazard. The amount of dividend paid is also lower when there are family members in other top management positions beyond the CEO. Thus, the evidence provided suggests that the existing heterogeneity regarding dividend policy in the context of privately held family firms is strongly driven by differences in SEW priorities.
