The Origins and Development of Socioemotional Wealth Within Next-Generation Family Members: An Interpretive Grounded Theory Study
采用解释性扎根理论，研究发现下一代家族成员早期关键事件激发归属感和身份认同，这是社会情感财富的核心；随着他们与家族企业互动增多，对非财务方面的解读满足更多情感需求，从而拓宽和强化了社会情感财富思维。
Adopting an interpretive grounded theory approach, we find that key events in the early lives of next-generation family members fuel a sense of belonging and identity, which lies at the heart of their socioemotional wealth. As next-generation family members interact more with the family business, they interpret nonfinancial aspects of the firm as an answer to a larger variety of affective needs, which broadens and strengthens their interactive socioemotional wealth frame of mind. In line with our life course theory lens, we observe how key events that build up socioemotional wealth greatly influence the life paths of next-generation family members.
