摘要
关于外部知识获取强度对创造和创新绩效的影响,在以往研究中得到了不同的结论。其中重要的原因可能是忽略了个体认知能力的调节作用。创造性认知理论和建构主义学习理论均认为个体的认知能力影响知识对创造力的关系,但这方面的实证研究还没有得到开展。本文旨在探究知识消化能力在与外部知识获取强度和研发人员创新绩效之间的作用。通过对来自七个研发单位207位研发人员的配对数据分析发现:外部知识获取强度对创新绩效没有直接作用,知识消化能力对创新绩效有显著正向作用,而且外部知识获取强度对创新绩效的影响受知识消化能力的调节。最后,本文对研发管理提出了相关建议。
The existing studies on the impact of external knowledge on creativity and innovative performance keep controversial. One important reason might be that in most studies actors' cognitive ability has been ignored. Creative cognition theory and constructivism learning theory have pointed out that individual cognitive ability influence the relation between knowledge and creativity. However,no empirical study addresses this issue. This article explored the effect of research and development( R&D) employees' knowledge assimilation capacity on the relationship between the strength of external knowledge searching and their innovative performance. Based on the survey paired- sample data of 207 R&D employees from 7 research organizations,the analysis results demonstrated that:( 1) The strength of external knowledge searching had no significant effect on R&D employees' innovation performance.( 2) R&D employees' knowledge assimilation capacity increased their innovative performance.( 3) Assimilation capacity moderated the relationship between the strength of external knowledge searching and innovative performance. In the end,R&D management suggestions were discussed.
