虚拟团队中的社会惰性——基于知识型团队的实验研究

本文以社会资本理论和工作动机理论为理论框架,提出了虚拟团队中的社会惰性模型.从个体内在动机和外部环境两个层面,提出并解释了虚拟团队中社会惰性的影响机制.本文通过准实验研究对由87名学生组成的11个实验小组进行观察,随后又进行了问卷调查,对提出的假设进行了验证.结果表明,个体所拥有的社会资本能显著降低其社会惰性;社会资本与声誉和社会临场感之间的交互作用,对社会惰性的降低作用也得到了验证.最后,论文对团队管理、沟通技术设计以及未来研究提出了建议.     

Inter-Organizational Coordination, IT Support, and Environment

Manufacturing organizations must know how to deal with uncertainty, manage environmental impact, effectively coordinate with suppliers, and use information technology （IT） to support coordination. Applying cybernetics and information processing theories, this study explores the relationship between organizational environment, inter-organizational coordination, IT support, and the effectiveness of interorganizational coordination. Using the case study method, data was collected from six manufacturing firms in China. The results show that inter-organizational system adoption is affected by organizational environment and is related to the management of inter-organizational coordination. Coordination and IT application affect the performance of inter-organizational coordination.
