Abstract

By definition, measuring the social capital in firm-stakeholder relationships assesses the degree to which the company has met essential preconditions for good CSP. Previous studies identified the three most important dimensions of social capital as the structural (e.g., network ties), the relational (e.g., trust), and the cognitive (e.g., shared goals, shared paradigms). A five-year longitudinal study in Papua New Guinea produced measures of social capital that were consistent with the three dimensional view including a cross-culturally meaningful measure of trust. A second cross-sectional study of 15 diverse communities on four continents confirmed the cross-cultural applicability of the cognitive and relational dimensional measures. The findings suggest that a universal predictor of a company's CSP is feasible.
衡量社会资本的社会绩效
根据定义,衡量公司利益相关者关系中的社会资本评估公司满足良好CSP的基本先决条件的程度。以往的研究将社会资本的三个最重要的维度确定为结构(如网络关系)、关系(如信任)和认知(如共同目标、共同范式)。在巴布亚新几内亚进行的一项为期五年的纵向研究得出了与三维观点一致的社会资本衡量标准,包括跨文化意义的信任衡量标准。对四大洲15个不同社区的第二项横断面研究证实了认知和关系维度测量的跨文化适用性。研究结果表明,一个通用的预测公司CSP的方法是可行的。
