Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Multinationals from emerging markets are embracing frugal innovation. While resource constraints and business opportunities targeting the underserved have been identified as core reasons for the same, we heed to researchers calls for a fine-grained understanding of the formal and informal institutions that promote frugal innovation. Using jugaad – an ingenious form of indigenous frugal innovation practiced by Indian multinationals as a study context, we utilize a neo-institutional theoretical lens to explore its antecedents and outcomes while explicating the organizational characteristics that enable and sustain jugaad. Our qualitative study with eight Indian multinationals finds that jugaad is a response to a complex combination of myriad institutional factors that challenge these multinationals to innovate frugally, enabled by specific organizational characteristics that ultimately lead to jugaad outcomes. Our findings are presented in a conceptual framework that advances the understanding of jugaad and extends neo-institutional theory to this context. We also provide some future direction for this contemporary stream of research.
