“…Carson et al 2003;Fullagar et al 1995;Khatri and Ng 2000) Harman's single-factor test recommends factorial analysis of a study's item pool. Although there are no specific guidelines (Podsakoff et al 2003), the assumption underlying the test is that if there is a substantial amount of common method variance in the data, a single factor will emerge from the factor analysis when all variables are entered together (Parkhe 1993). In addition, these items should load on different factors.…”

Organizational Citizenship Behaviour for the Environment: Measurement and Validation

While the importance of employee initiatives for improving the environmental practices and performance of organizations has been clearly established in the literature, the precise nature of these initiatives has rarely been examined (particularly the issue of their discretionary or mandatory nature). The role of organizational citizenship behaviour in environmental management remains largely unexplored. The main objectives of this paper were to propose and validate an instrument for measuring organizational citizenship behaviour for the environment (OCBE). Exploratory (Study 1, N = 228) and confirmatory (Study 2, N = 651) analyses were conducted to examine the factor structure of OCBEs. The factor structure that emerged from Study 1 indicated that the three main types of OCBEs were eco-initiatives, eco-civic engagement and eco-helping. The factor structure found in Study 1 was confirmed by Study 2. Analysis of the three types of OCBEs highlighted the complexity of discretionary initiatives for the environment in the workplace and points to a number of avenues for further research.

This study examined the influence of internal capabilities and external networks on firm performance by using data from 137 Korean technological start-up companies. Internal capabilities were operationalized by entrepreneurial orientation, technological capabilities, and financial resources invested during the development period. External networks were captured by partnership-and sponsorship-based linkages. Partnership-based linkages were measured by strategic alliances with other enterprises and venture capitalists, collaboration with universities or research institutes, and participation in venture associations. Sponsorshipbased linkages consisted of financial and nonfinancial support from commercial banks and the Korean government. Sales growth indicated the start-up's performance. Regression results showed that the three indicators of internal capabilities are important predictors of a start-up's performance. Among external networks, only the linkages to venture capital companies predicted the start-up's performance. Several interaction terms between internal capabilities and partnership-based linkages have a statistically significant influence on performance. Sponsorship-based linkages do not have individual effects on performance but linkage with financial institutions has a multiplicative effect with technological capabilities and financial resources invested on a start-up's performance. Implications and directions for future research were discussed. ABSTRACTThis study examined the influence of internal capabilities and organizational linkages to external entities on firm performance by using data from 143 Korean business ventures.

“…Despite Williamson's concerns, the concept of interorganizational trust is widely used in both the marketing and the strategy literature. For examples of empirical work see Zaheer and Venkatraman (1995), Parkhe (1993), Anderson and Weitz (1989), Morgan and Hunt (1994), Kumar, Sheer, and Steenkamp ( 1995), Ganesan ( 1994), and Cummings and Bromiley (1996). The scales used by these authors to measure trust meet conventional criteria of validity, such as internal consistencey and face validity.…”

This study examines the determinants of inter-organisational trust by using survey data from just over 1000 suppliers in the automotive industry. We define trust and derive a model of its determinants from transaction cost economics, game theory and sociological exchange theory.Regression analysis results indicate that determinants of trust are different from determinants of opportunism. US-Japanese differences are found in three respects: (i) the way trust is conceptualised by suppliers is richer in Japan than in the US; (ii) the level of trust is higher in Japan than in the US; and (iii) the factors facilitating trust and those attenuating opportunism differ in the US and Japan.
