Abstract

This study employs the attention-based view (ABV) to examine the impact of regulatory focus dispersion on family and non-family firms. Guided by the socioemotional wealth framework, family firms face challenges as diverse regulations threaten family firm performance. Family firms (non-family firms) realize negative (positive) performance with increasing regulatory focus dispersion. This research contributes by integrating ABV with family firm characteristics and regulatory focus dispersion, offering implications for increasingly regulatory environments.

兼顾注意力空间：监管焦点分散对家族企业和非家族企业绩效的影响

本研究采用注意基础观点（ABV）来考察监管焦点分散对家族企业和非家族企业的影响。在社会情感财富框架的指导下，家族企业面临着各种法规威胁家族企业绩效的挑战。随着监管焦点的分散，家族企业（非家族企业）实现负（正）绩效。本研究将ABV与家族企业特征和监管焦点分散相结合，为日益严格的监管环境提供启示。
