Abstract: Based on network embeddedness and dynamic capability theory, proposes a conceptual model about the mediating effect of dynamic capabilities on the relationship of multiple network embeddedness and knowledge creation performance to solve the embeddedness paradox. The cluster firms of three industrial clusters in Fujian province are chosen as the research objects in the questionnaire survey, and the structural equation model is used to verify the hypotheses.The result shows that multiple network embeddedness influence knowledge creation performance by means of dynamic capability, but the mechanisms of the two capabilities are different. Our empirical findings indicate a full mediating role of absorptive capabilities in relational embeddedness and knowledge embeddedness, and creation capabilities act as a full mediating role in structural embeddedness and knowledge embeddedness. Therefore, cluster firms should pay attention to the bidirectional dynamic adjustment of multiple network embeddedness and dynamic capabilities, in order to achieve the best allocation of resources, and promote knowledge creation performance.

摘要: 基于网络嵌入理论和动态能力理论,面对嵌入性悖论,以动态能力为中介变量,构建了多重网络嵌入影响集群企业知识创造绩效的概念模型,以福建省三大产业集群为对象,通过问卷调查并运用结构方程模型进行实证研究。结果表明:多重网络嵌入对知识创造绩效影响关系的发挥有赖于动态能力,但不同能力的中介作用机制有差异;吸收能力在关系嵌入和知识嵌入的作用过程中发挥完全中介效应,而创造能力在结构嵌入和知识嵌入的作用过程中发挥完全中介效应。因此,集群企业应注重多重网络嵌入状态和动态能力的双向动态调整,以实现资源的最佳配置,进而提升知识创造绩效。
