The Effects of Strategy Type on the Market Orientation–Performance Relationship
研究了业务战略类型如何调节市场导向与企业绩效之间的关系，发现战略类型确实会影响这一关系的强度。
Prior research has been equivocal on the role that competitive environment plays in moderating the relationship between market orientation and a firm's business performance, even though such a moderating effect is conceptually quite plausible ( Slater and Narver 1994 ). In this article, the authors empirically examine the role of business strategy type as an alternative, potential moderator of the market orientation–performance relationship. By using an improved version of Kohli and Jaworski's market orientation scale ( Jaworski and Kohli 1993 ; Kohli, Jaworski, and Kumar 1993 ), the authors find evidence that supports the moderating effects of business strategy type on the strength of the relationship between market orientation and business performance. The authors also offer implications and future research questions based on the findings.
