Can interfirm trust improve firms' cooperation on environmental innovation? The moderating role of environmental hostility
基于信任-行为逻辑，研究企业间认知信任和情感信任对环境创新合作的影响，以及环境敌意的调节作用，基于216家中国企业数据。
Abstract Based on the logic of “trust‐behavior,” we examined the relationship between interfirm cognitive trust, emotional trust, and firms' cooperation on environmental innovation, as well as the moderating role of environmental hostility on the relationship between two dimensions of interfirm trust and cooperation on environmental innovation. Data for the study were collected from 216 firms in China. The results indicated that both interfirm cognitive trust and emotional trust were positively correlated to firms' cooperation on environmental innovation, and the effect of emotional trust on firms' cooperation on environmental innovation was negatively moderated by environmental hostility. Finally, the results were discussed and future directions put forward.
