Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to explore how informational faultlines impact new product creativity through specific mechanisms. The study focuses on analyzing how knowledge hiding mediates the relationship between informational faultlines and new product creativity, and how team promotion regulatory focus and team prevention regulatory focus moderate this process.

Design/methodology/approach

This research investigates the proposed hypotheses by examining sample data from 65 team leaders and 370 employees, delving into the relationship between informational faultlines and new product creativity and its underlying mechanisms.

Findings

Knowledge hiding negatively mediates the relationship between informational faultlines and new product creativity; team promotion regulatory focus negatively moderates the relationship between informational faultlines and knowledge hiding; team prevention regulatory focus positively moderates the relationship between informational faultlines and knowledge hiding; team promotion regulatory focus negatively moderates the mediating role of knowledge hiding in the link between informational faultlines and new product creativity. The higher the level of team promotion regulatory focus, the weaker the mediating role of knowledge hiding between informational faultlines and new product creativity, and vice versa; team prevention regulatory focus positively moderates the mediating effect of knowledge hiding in the relationship between informational faultlines and new product creativity. The higher the level of team prevention regulatory focus, the stronger the mediating effect of knowledge hiding on informational faultlines and new product creativity, and vice versa.

Originality/value

This paper constructs a novel moderated mediation model based on the need-threat model. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first to explore the relationship between informational faultlines and new product creativity from the perspective of knowledge retention, effectively filling the research gap on the role of knowledge hiding between informational faultlines and team innovative output and the moderate role of team motivational-based psychological characteristics, such as team regulatory focus, in the aforementioned mechanisms.

知识隐藏对信息断层中新产品创造力的影响
目的本文旨在探讨信息断层如何通过特定机制影响新产品创造力。本研究重点分析了知识隐藏如何在信息断层与新产品创造力之间起到中介作用,以及团队促进监管重点和团队预防监管重点如何在这一过程中起到调节作用。本研究通过对 65 位团队领导和 370 位员工的样本数据进行研究,深入探讨了信息断层与新产品创造力之间的关系及其内在机制,从而对提出的假设进行研究。研究结果知识隐藏对信息断层与新产品创造力之间的关系起负向中介作用;团队晋升监管重点对信息断层与知识隐藏之间的关系起负向调节作用;团队预防监管重点对信息断层与知识隐藏之间的关系起正向调节作用;团队晋升监管重点对知识隐藏在信息断层与新产品创造力之间的中介作用起负向调节作用。团队促进监管关注度越高,知识隐藏在信息断层和新产品创造力之间的中介作用越弱,反之亦然;团队预防监管关注度正向调节知识隐藏在信息断层和新产品创造力之间的中介作用。团队预防监管关注度越高,知识隐藏对信息断层和新产品创造力的中介效应越强,反之亦然。据作者所知,这是首次从知识保留的角度探讨信息断层与新产品创造力之间的关系,有效地填补了知识隐藏在信息断层与团队创新产出之间的作用以及团队监管焦点等基于团队激励的心理特征在上述机制中的调节作用的研究空白。
