知识积累、知识激活与创新能力关系研究

Knowledge Accumulation,Knowledge Reactivation and Innovation Capabilities

关于知识与创新间的关系,现有研究多强调不同类型知识对创新总体绩效的影响差异,较少关注同一知识基对创新微观过程的不同阶段是否具有同等影响。针对这一理论缺口,本研究首先建构了知识积累与基于创新微观过程的企业创新能力间关系模型,并利用问卷调查获得的419份国内企业数据、利用层次回归方法进行实证检验。研究发现:企业知识积累对创新能力具有显著提升作用,并且这种积极效应贯穿在创新的整个微观过程中;分别以内、外组织学习为特征的不同知识激活机制在促进知识贡献于创新不同阶段能力提升过程中具有不同影响。本文最后讨论了理论贡献、管理意义及局限。

The relationship between knowledge and innovation always gains highly concerning. However, existing literature has paid more attention to the relationship between different knowledge and innovation performance than that between same knowledge and different sub-capability of innovation capabilities, which may be constructed according to micro-processes of a firm＇s innovation. This theoretical gap provides an opportunity for the present paper. A theoretical model is proposed and tested by hierarchical regression analysis, using data collected from 419 domestic firms. Results Show that knowledge accumulation is positive with innovation capabilities throughout all sub-processes of innovating. Different mechanisms of knowledge reactivation have different impacts on the relationship between knowledge accumulation and innovation capabilities. Finally, theoretical contribution, managerial implications and limitations are discussed.
