组织虚拟性与信息共享的关系问题已成为创新管理学界关注的热点问题之一。本文采用元分析方法,在对相关实证文献进行系统检索和数据筛选的基础上,获得了38个效应值进行分析。研究结果表明:虽然在整体上二者关系并不显著,但在不同的研究情境下,二者的关系仍出现了很大差异。其中,较高的虚拟性会导致信息共享的开放性程度提高,但独特性上可能会有所减少;总体看来,既采用面谈交流方式,又加入虚拟工具的沟通手段对于信息共享的提升作用相对较高;另外,我们还发现,时间限制与团队规模两个调节变量在信息共享的总效应、信息共享开放性以及独特性上调节作用并不一致。
The relationship between group virtuality and information sharing has become one of the hottest issues in the field of innovation management. Based on the systematic search of relative empirical literature and sifting of data,this paper acquires 38 effect values and makes use of the method of Meta-analysis to a quantitative comprehensive analysis. The results show that though on overall level,their relationship isn't significant. However,the relationship varies largely on different situation. It seems that higher virtuality can increase the openness but decrease the uniqueness of information sharing. In general,using both FTF and virtual tools can improve information sharing more. In addition,we also find that time limit and group size moderate very differently overall effect,openness and uniqueness of information sharing.
