Abstract

Given the diverse conceptualisations used in the measurement of organisational value congruence (OVC), the purpose of this paper is to propose an integrated typology of measurement criteria — as a methodological and measurement guideline — that can be employed in operationalising the measurement of OVC. Based on a review of over forty empirical articles, this typology proposes a path forward to operationalise the measurement of OVC by selecting from the proposed criteria and alternative dimensions to match the specific aims of researchers more comprehensively. The typology thus proposed identifies six key criteria and 12 dimensions therein. It further presents how different combinations of alternative dimensions in measuring OVC are used and can be used to best suit different objectives of researchers. As a concept matrix, this typology would specifically be useful for future researchers to identify how best to measure OVC to match their specific study objectives and facilitate rational comparison of OVC studies, permitting sensible knowledge sharing. Further, this typology can be extended to locate the best possible combinations for operationalising the measurement of OVC for future research.

衡量组织价值一致性的多重视角

考虑到组织价值一致性(OVC)测量中使用的不同概念，本文的目的是提出一种综合的测量标准类型-作为方法和测量指南-可用于OVC测量的操作。基于对四十多篇实证文章的回顾，该类型学提出了一条路径，通过从提出的标准和替代维度中进行选择，以更全面地匹配研究人员的具体目标，从而实现OVC的测量。因此提出的类型学确定了六个关键标准和其中的12个维度。它进一步介绍了测量OVC的不同维度的不同组合是如何使用的，并且可以用来最适合研究人员的不同目标。作为一个概念矩阵，这种类型对于未来的研究人员确定如何最好地测量OVC以匹配他们特定的研究目标，促进OVC研究的理性比较，允许明智的知识共享特别有用。此外，这种类型可以扩展，以确定OVC测量的最佳可能组合，以用于未来的研究。

期刊介绍： The Asian Journal of Business Ethics (AJBE) publishes original articles from a wide variety of methodological and disciplinary perspectives concerning ethical issues related to business in Asia, including East, Southeast and South-central Asia. Like its well-known sister publication Journal of Business Ethics, AJBE examines the moral dimensions of production, consumption, labour relations, and organizational behavior, while taking into account the unique societal and ethical perspectives of the Asian region. The term ''business'' is understood in a wide sense to include all systems involved in the exchange of goods and services, while ''ethics'' is understood as applying to all human action aimed at securing a good life. We believe that issues concerning corporate responsibility are within the scope of ethics broadly construed. Systems of production, consumption, marketing, advertising, social and economic accounting, labour relations, public relations and organizational behaviour will be analyzed from a moral or ethical point of view. The style and level of dialogue involve all who are interested in business ethics - the business community, universities, government agencies, non-government organizations and consumer groups.The AJBE viewpoint is especially relevant today, as global business initiatives bring eastern and western companies together in new and ever more complex patterns of cooperation and competition.
