摘要

转型经济体中的企业如何在创新挑战中推动数字化转型仍然是一个重要但尚未得到充分探讨的问题。本研究以有限理性下的启发式决策为前提，运用企业行为理论，考察了转型经济体创新绩效期望不足对数字化转型的影响以及资源配置特征的调节作用。以2008 - 2023年中国a股上市制造业企业为样本，研究发现创新绩效期望缺口对企业数字化转型的影响呈倒u型模式：创新绩效期望缺口的增加会导致企业转型动机和能力的变化，使企业数字化转型程度先上升后下降。此外，在没有政治关系和高度市场竞争的企业中，创新绩效期望不足对数字化转型的影响被放大。这些研究结果通过增强企业行为理论在组织管理实践中的预测和解释能力，推进了企业行为理论的发展，并为转型经济企业在创新绩效期望不足条件下进行数字化转型提供了理论指导和实证证据。

Transformation for innovation: Innovation performance aspiration shortfall and transition economy firms’ digital transformation

How firms in transition economies drive digital transformation amidst innovation challenges remains an important but underexplored question. Grounded in the premise of heuristic decision-making under bounded rationality, this study employs the behavioral theory of the firm to examine how innovation performance aspiration shortfall affects digital transformation and the moderating effect of resource allocation characteristics in transition economies. Using a sample of manufacturing firms listed on Chinese A-share market from 2008 to 2023, the results reveal that the impact of innovation performance aspiration shortfall on digital transformation follows an inverted U-shaped pattern: the increase of innovation performance aspiration shortfall will lead to the change of firm transformation motivation and capability, making the degree of digital transformation increase first and then decrease. Furthermore, the effect of innovation performance aspiration shortfall on digital transformation is amplified in firms with no political connection and high market competition. These findings advance the behavioral theory of the firm by enhancing its predictive and explanatory power in organizational management practices and provide theoretical guidance and empirical evidence for transition economy firms navigating digital transformation under innovation performance aspiration shortfall conditions.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management. The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning. The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
