Three Types of Perceived Uncertainty about the Environment: State, Effect, and Response Uncertainty

Assembling Frameworks for Strategic Innovation Enactment: Enhancing Transformational Agility through Situational Scanning

“…Ultimately, sense-making occurs when leaders construct an environment by framing experiences and by creating new capabilities (Milliken 1987;Weick 1987). Strategic enactment occurs when activity, often simultaneous, is introduced to accomplish tasks, create new capabilities, and create sense within them.…”

Control in Virtual Learning Communities: An Investigation from the Views of Trust and Effectiveness Uncertainty

“…This study also defines trust in the VLC as "a learner's subjective belief that VLC members will behave as trustworthily as expected" following Pavlou and Gefen [7] and perceived effectiveness uncertainty as "a learner's perception that he or she is unable to accurately predict the attainment of positive effects from taking part in a VLC" following Milliken [8].…”

“…Following Pavlou [4] and Pavlou and Gefen [7], this study defines perceived feedback as the extent to which learners believe that the feedback mechanism is effective in providing accurate information about past behavior of VLC members. According to Pavlou, a feedback mechanism aims at self-regulation of behavior by giving signals about other VLC participants' reputation to learners while creating incentives for those participants to behave well in order to earn a good reputation.…”

“…Many studies have found that individual propensity to trust affects trust [7], [12], [15]; this study thus controls for its effect on trust in the VLC. Table I shows the research constructs and sources of items used to measure these constructs.…”

The recycling of electronic waste: regulations and corporate strategies in Brazil and in Europe.

“…Supporters of the objective uncertainty argue that is possible to objectively measure uncertainty and that it depends on the environment (MEIJER et al, 2006). On the other hand, supporters of the perceptive view believe that an objective measurement is not possible, as it depends on the ways innovation is perceived by different actors (MILLIKEN, 1987).…”
