Measuring Socioemotional Wealth Using Content Analysis: A SEWi-Based Approach
开发了一种基于SEWi框架的计算机辅助文本分析方法,用于直接、可扩展地测量家族企业组织叙事中的社会情感财富,并验证了其信度和效度。
Socioemotional wealth (SEW) is a foundational construct in family business research; however, its empirical measurement remains limited by reliance on proxy variables and survey data. This study addresses these challenges by developing a computer-aided text analysis method to measure SEW using the SEWi framework. Our approach enables direct, scalable, and multidimensional assessment of SEW through organizational narratives. We detail the development and validation of the measure, demonstrating its reliability and construct validity. This method expands the methodological toolkit for family business scholars and enhances SEW measurement precision, offering a pragmatic solution for broader, comparative, and longitudinal research.
