Abstract

Abstract Argyris & Schön's notion of two types of learning, single‐loop (SLL) and double‐loop learning (DLL), is arguably one of the most popularized categorizations of organizational learning (OL). However, while the concept of DLL is widely cited, it has left a superficial impact on the literature and practice. We argue that the limited impact of DLL is due to two features of DLL: the complexity of its definition and the difficulty in its implementation. This study identifies and organizes critical insights in the literature related to the conceptualization, measurement, and generation of DLL. To address these topics, we review and synthesize the findings of 128 studies on DLL published between 1974 and 2021. We aim to reduce the confusion surrounding DLL and the proliferation of empirical studies on DLL that ignore its original notion. We propose a framework that makes explicit the misconceptions, wrong assumptions, and barriers in conceptualizing, measuring, and generating DLL, and it also provides insights into how to overcome these limitations and serves as a platform for future research on DLL.
在组织环境中振兴双循环学习:系统回顾和研究议程
【摘要】银尾草;Schön关于两种学习类型的概念,单环(SLL)和双环学习(DLL),可以说是组织学习(OL)中最流行的分类之一。然而,虽然DLL的概念被广泛引用,但它对文献和实践留下了表面的影响。我们认为,DLL的影响有限是由于DLL的两个特点:定义的复杂性和实现的难度。本研究确定并组织了与DLL的概念化、度量和生成相关的文献中的重要见解。为了解决这些问题,我们回顾和综合了1974年至2021年间发表的128篇关于动态DLL的研究结果。我们的目标是减少围绕DLL的混乱和对DLL的实证研究的扩散,这些研究忽视了它的原始概念。我们提出了一个框架,明确了在概念化、测量和生成DLL中的误解、错误假设和障碍,并提供了如何克服这些限制的见解,并为DLL的未来研究提供了一个平台。
