“…Relationship quality refers to the perceptions of sustainability and reciprocity in the cooperative relationship between exchange partners (Donada et al , 2019). It entails the trading parties' fulfilments of expectations, predictions, goals and desires from a relationship.…”

PurposeThis study aims to examine the impact of supplier relationship quality on curtailing opportunism and promoting cooperation between the exchange partners. It also investigates the contingent impact of contract specificity on the relationships and assesses performance implications of relationship quality for both buyer and its major supplier in the exchange.Design/methodology/approachConfirmatory factor analysis and path analysis were performed based on data collected from manufacturers in a survey. The hypotheses were tested using path analysis.FindingsThe findings of this study indicate a pivotal role of supplier relationship quality in suppressing opportunism and enhancing cooperation between exchange parties, which lead to dyadic performance. Furthermore, the effect of supplier relationship quality is strengthened by contract specificity.Originality/valueThis study adds value to the existing streams of studies in several ways. First, informed by the nexus of relational capital theory and transaction cost economics, the authors emphasize the pivotal role of relationship quality in curtailing opportunism and fostering cooperation and the moderating effect of contract specificity on the above linkages. Second, this study provides empirical evidence of the mechanism of the effect of contract specificity on opportunism and cooperation.

“…Another example of conceptual confusion is the frequent blurring of the inherency versus instrumentality of virtue, with projects emerging which claim to harness virtue to increase business growth (Dokes, 2017) and performance (Donada, Mothe, Nogatchewsky, & de Campos Ribeiro, 2017), whereas others argue for the inherent value of virtue, that virtue is good for its own sake (e.g. Bright et al, 2006;Cameron, 2011Cameron, , 2013.…”

“…Among the few exceptions is the attempt by Riggio et al (2010). Some works rely on authors of virtue ethics -such as Aristotle (2009), MacIntyre (2007) and Sison and Ferrero (2015) -while others connect virtue ethics to positive psychology (e.g., Arthur et al, 2021;Donada et al, 2019;Shahab & Adil, 2020).…”

“…Further evidence of the role of moral virtues was observed in topics such as the relationships between buyer-seller (Donada, Mothe, Nogatchewsky, & Ribeiro, 2019); leader-led (Qin et al, 2019); managers-salespeople (Shanahan & Hopkins, 2019); the professionals' character (Arthur et al, 2021); and responsible consumption (Song & Kim, 2018).…”

Objective: to investigate how scales for the concept of moral virtues are constructed and measured, in studies associated with business ethics and the tradition of virtue ethics. Methods: a systematic literature review was conducted to select empirical articles on moral virtues that design or apply scales. Based on search, selection, and analysis criteria, five databases were consulted, and 37 papers were selected, with subsequent analysis of the scales development and measurement procedure (items, sample, factor analysis) and emerging factors. Results: the study gathers scales of multiple moral virtues (19) and of specific virtues (18), showing limitations in the generation of items, and in the item-sample proportion in some scales, as well as theoretical contributions in leadership and relationship strengthening, making a theoretical and methodological discussion in the light of the assumptions of virtue ethics in the Aristotelian-Thomistic tradition. Conclusions: the article intends to contribute to a better understanding of moral virtues in management, by discussing the scales from the unity of virtues and the phronesis-moral virtues connection, with implications for human behavior and business ethics. Procedures are recommended for future qualitative and quantitative studies in new research contexts.
