高校科研人员长期结果考量与双元创新行为:性别的调节作用

The impact of consideration of future consequences on exploration behaviors and exploitation behaviors:The moderated role of gender

基于解释水平理论和性别社会角色视角,利用高校科研人员样本和问卷调查法,探讨长期结果考量与双元创新行为的关系以及性别差异。研究表明:(1)长期结果考量与科研人员的探索性创新行为正相关,与利用性创新行为负相关;(2)性别在长期结果考量与不同创新行为的关系中起着调节作用,长期结果考量与探索性创新行为的相关关系仅在男性科研人员样本中显著,而长期结果考量与利用性创新行为的相关关系仅在女性科研人员样本中显著。研究拓展了长期结果考量的效果研究,为探究高水平创新行为提供了一个崭新视角,也对如何基于性别差异进行创新管理具有重要启示。

Based on construal level theory and gender difference perspective,the study conducted a twowave designed study on the relationship between consideration of future consequences(CFC)and exploration behaviors as well as exploitation behaviors,and further testing the moderating effect of gender.The study collected a sample of scientific research personnel from different universities in China and statistically analyzed the data by Hierarchical Regression Modeling.The results showed that CFC had a positive correlation with the exploration behaviors,and a negative correlation with exploitation behaviors.Gender moderated the relationship between CFC and exploration behaviors.Specifically,CFC exerted positive effect on male university researchers’exploration behaviors,but not on the female.Gender moderated the relationship between CFC and exploitation behaviors.Specifically,CFC exerted negative effect on female university researchers’exploitation behaviors,but not on the male.The study contributes the research on effectiveness of CFC and provides a new perspective on the factors of employees’innovative behaviors.The conclusions have practical significance to promote organizational innovation and scientific research personnel management.
