The competitive implications of the deployment of unique resources

The ‘resource‐based’ view focuses on unique resources as the fundamental sources of competitive advantage and superior profits. We use a game‐theoretic model to analyze the impact of the deployment of unique resources on product market competition, and the impact of unique resources and sustainable competitive advantages on profits when the competitive implications of resource deployment are taken into account. We find that some of the core propositions of the resource‐based view do not necessarily hold when the impact of resource deployment on product market competition is explicitly considered. Specifically, the accumulation and deployment of unique resources does not necessarily increase the firm's profit and the difference between its profit and competitors' profits. Furthermore, achieving a sustainable competitive advantage does not necessarily lead to higher profits. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Why does formal mentoring matter? The mediating role of psychological safety and the moderating role of power distance orientation in the Chinese context

Formal mentoring programs continue to gain popularity within various organizations due to their positive impact on protégés' career successes. However, to date, relevant research has focused on the benefits of informal mentoring relationships. To narrow the literature gap, this study was conducted to examine whether, how and when the amount of formal mentoring provided by mentors influenced protégés' work attitudes. Based on 208 formal mentor–protégé dyads from the People's Republic of China, we found that the amount of formal mentoring provided by mentors related positively to protégés' affective commitment and related negatively to turnover intention. Furthermore, perceived psychological safety of protégés partially mediated the relationship between the amount of formal mentoring and affective commitment, whereas it completely mediated the relationship between the amount of formal mentoring and turnover intention. Finally, protégés' power distance orientation moderated the relationship between the amount of formal mentoring and perceived psychological safety. Additionally, implications for research and practice from our findings are discussed.

Ritual legitimation, de-coupling and the budgetary process: managing organizational hypocrisies in a multinational company

The study of participation in the budgetary cycle has formed a prominent part of the research literature concerned with the budgetary process. More recently there has emerged a body of literature concerned with exploring the political and symbolic nature of the budgetary process. The paper reports upon the outcomes of an empirical study of the introduction of `budgetary participation' in a division of a European subsidiary of a large North American car manufacturer. We detail the long process of consultation and negotiation within the subsidiary, and between it and the European Headquarters. The study provides a revealing instance of the roles of formal budget participation as a ritual of control and legitimation without the substantive involvement of middle managers and suggested to us the introduction of de-coupling and organizational hypocrisy alongside the introduction of budget participation. The study pays close attention to the contingent effects of the wider political context of the division and the relationships between the division, its organizational context and organizational environment, and how this context played upon the budgetary process in the division. The outcomes that we analyse at `Delta' reflect the de-coupling strategies and organizational hypocrisies commonly found in public sector organizations. In this wider setting the corporation persists with the ritual of `tight' budget negotiation and target setting and apparent underachievement in performance. Yet we conclude that the complex technological and political context to the formation and siting of Delta continued and may continue to support its existence.$g0     

中国老年人护理方式选择的影响因素研究——来自CLHLS数据的实证

本文利用全国老年人口健康状况调查研究2008年的截面数据,将影响老年人护理方式选择的影响因素分为四类:自身特质类、健康状况类、社会经济地位类和社区为老服务供给类,针对正规护理和非正规护理两种进行二分变量Logistic回归分析,以此来比较老年人护理方式选择的影响因素分析。本文的结论是:当前中国老年人以接受来自家庭内部或亲朋好友的非正规护理为主;年龄、现居住地、生育儿子数、单独住与否、医药费由谁支付、老年人的健康状况自评、收入、职业、社区提供的起居照料服务以及组织社会和娱乐活动对老年人护理方式的选择有显著地影响。本文的建议是:发展老年协会,鼓励老年人进行社会参与;将非正规护理人员纳入社会保障范围;大力培养老年专业护理人员;加快出台《长期护理保险条例》。

“V（了）＋他＋Q（数量词）＋C”构式中“他”的认知逻辑推断

本文将以语料分析、文献阅读和比较研究方法为基础,借鉴构式语法研究者们的研究思路,即特殊表达从常规表达传承了很多语义特征和用法规律.尝试解释被乔姆斯基等视为边缘成分而被忽视的非常规表达现象,基于西方语言哲学的视角和形式语义学的逻辑推导,运用语义、语用学理论对这一特殊句式中“他”的认知机制进行逻辑推断,进行经验式分析,再从特殊反溯一般,可望能为这类语言事实提供一个合理的解释.
