Behavioral Simulation: Application and Potential in Management Research
指出行为模拟在管理研究中被严重低估,讨论了该方法如何有效处理组织情境因素,并提供了设计策略,对研究多样性管理、员工再培训、组织公民行为等主题的学者有参考价值。
Balance in research methods is well recognized for improving knowledge in the field. Despite this, a review of published studies suggests that behavioral simulation has been severely underused. With this in mind, simulations are discussed as a potent and timely methodology for addressing contextual factors in organizations. In addition, strategies for effective simulation design are offered. The promise of simulations is highlighted for studies of managing diversity, retraining displaced workers, organizational citizenship behaviors, and influence tactics.
