“…One of the main reasons for choosing ethnography to explore heuristics is to observe the organization's members acting in their natural environment. Heuristics in decision-making happen when individuals deal with ongoing everyday-life situations in their natural surroundings (Bodner et al, 2019). Heuristics concern conscious and unconscious cognitive mechanisms which result in decisions that can be observed (Gigerenzer and Gaissmaier, 2011).…”

Purpose The modern knowledge-based economy acknowledges the role of the third mission of universities related to the process of knowledge transfer as a driving force to face sustainability issues, in addition to the two traditional missions focusing on research and teaching. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships between internal environment, external environment, knowledge exploitation, knowledge exploration and university performance. Design/methodology/approach This study applies confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling to test the conceptual model in the Chinese education system. Findings The findings confirm the higher impact of internal environment on both knowledge exploitation and knowledge exploration as compared to external environment. Knowledge exploitation is more strongly related to university performance than knowledge exploration. These results highlight the imperative role of internal university stakeholders in fostering knowledge management strategies. In addition, they encourage academicians, practitioners and policy makers to focus their attention on the impact of knowledge management models, tools and practices in universities to achieve the entrepreneurial development which, in turn, has a positive impact on individual graduates and innovation ecosystems. Originality/value The necessity to develop a more entrepreneurial university, as well as the lack of evidence of their development in emerging countries, highlights the need to investigate how specific factors and knowledge management processes are impacting the universities’ performance. In fact, although previous studies provide an explanation of the impact of internal and external factors on a university’s performance, contributions integrating these concepts with strategic knowledge management processes are still lacking.

“…Interpretative quality research is beneficial for theory building (Bodner, Song, & Szulanski, 2019), which involves conjecturing about an observation through abductive reasoning, i.e. deductively approaching a phenomenon with specific theories to inductively discover new theories (Van de Ven, 2007).…”

Matematiğin yapay diliyle karşılaştırıldığında, normalde kullanılan dil sıkça muğlaklık arz eder ve çoğunlukla objektif bir şekilde yoruma uygun değildir. Dil yorumlama yöntemleri yine de zengin sözel değerlendirmeler üretebilmektedir. Ancak bu yöntemlerin belirsizliklere açık yapısı, özellikle deneyimsiz araştırmacılar için zorlayıcı olabilmektedir. Bu boşluğu doldurmak amacıyla, bir argümantasyon teorisi olan yeni retorik, metinsel verilerden yeni teorik önermeler üretmek amacıyla argümanları sistematik olarak incelemek için kullanılabilir. Argümantasyon, mantıksal veya deneysel olarak mükemmel olmayan çıkarımlar yaratan pratik bir akıl yürütme şeklidir. Argümantasyon, formel mantık veya deneysel kanıt uygulanamadığında rasyonaliteyi kullanmanın bir yoludur. Argümantasyon analizi ise, argümanları ve argümanlara yol açan muhakeme süreçleri içindeki kişisel görüşleri sistematik olarak değerlendirmeye yarar. Bu doğrultuda, bu çalışma argümantasyon analizi için beş adım önermektedir. Bu beş adım, kritik argümanların tespiti, argüman yapılarının analizi, argümanların arkasındaki niyetin tespiti ve bunlara göre hipotezler üretmeye yönelik araştırmacıyı yönlendirmektedir. Çalışmada önerilen yöntem, örgütlerdeki sözlü etkileşimlerin sorgulanmasını kolaylaştırmayı amaçlamaktadır.
