The routinization of innovation research: a constructively critical review of the state‐of‐the‐science
这篇综述指出，个体、团队和组织层面的创新促进因素已被可靠识别，但1997-2002年间的研究存在常规化倾向，过度聚焦复制扩展、横截面设计和单一分析层次。作者提出五个未来研究路径，并举例说明一个“压力相关创新”模型。
Abstract In this review we argue that facilitators of innovation at the individual, group, and organizational levels have been reliably identified, and that validated process models of innovation have been developed. However, a content analysis of selected research published between 1997 and 2002 suggests a routinization of innovation research, with a heavy focus on replication–extension, cross‐sectional designs, and a single level of analysis. We discuss five innovative pathways for future work: Study innovation as an independent variable, across cultures, within a multi‐level framework, and use meta‐analysis and triangulation. To illustrate we propose a ‘distress‐related innovation’ model of the relations between negatively connotated variables and innovation at the individual, group, and organizational levels of analysis.
