道冲突与企业间协作：第三方介入的调节作用

doi:10.16381/j.cnki.issn1003-207x.2020.0101

Abstract

Abstract: Scholars have paid remarkable attention to channel conflicts. One of the related theories is the social balance theory. It acknowledges that in the triangular relationship formed by the three individuals, they will try to avoid the imbalance of the relationship among them and balance it by taking action. Recently, researchers began to explore the possible impact of third-party interventions on channel conflicts. They hold that the third-party may mitigate the two parties’ negative hostility to the conflict and help them resolve the problem. Inspired by prior studies and taking interfirm collaborative activities as the research setting, the impact of channel conflicts on interfirm collaboration and the moderating effects of third-party interventions are proposed and tested.

Key words: channel conflict; third-party intervention; joint planning; joint problem-solving; cooperation performance
