结构资本与技术能力:外部知识管理及知识距离的作用

识别网络结构资本对技术能力的影响是企业开放式创新的核心问题,现有研究对这种影响关系形成的内在机理还缺乏系统认识。通过有调节的中介模型,以企业样本数据实证发现：网络中心度、网络规模能提升外部知识获取和知识转移效率,网络多样性则只能正向影响外部知识获取。外部知识转移只能对技术创新能力产生正向作用,外部知识获取则与技术基础能力和创新能力是显著正向关系。知识距离对外部知识获取在网络中心度、网络规模与技术基础能力,网络多样性与技术基础能力、技术创新能力关系中的中介效应不起调节作用,但完全调节外部知识转移在网络中心度与技术创新能力、网络规模与技术创新能力关系中的中介效应。

Structural Capital and Technological Capability: the Effect of External Knowledge Management and Knowledge Distance

It is the core problem of open innovation to identify the influence of network structure capital on technological capability, but the present studies aren't to reveal systematically the procedural mechanism that shapes the influence relationship. Based on the adjusted intermediary model and enterprise sample data, the paper's research results show that network centrality and network scale can improve the efficiency of external knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer, while network diversity can only positively affect the external knowledge acquisition. The external knowledge transfer has only a positive effect on the technological innovation capability, while the external knowledge acquisition has a significant positive relationship with the technological fundamental capability and technological innovation capability. Knowledge distance can't moderate the mediating effect of external knowledge acquisition on the relationships between network centrality, network scale and technological basic ability, network diversity and technological basic ability, and the relationship between technological innovation ability and network diversity. But knowledge distance moderates completely the mediating effect of external knowledge transfer on the relationship between network centrality and technological innovation ability, and the relationship between network scale and technological innovation ability.
