Interorganizational reciprocity plays a key role in relationships among software firms and open source communities. This study seeks to illuminate how a firm's open source strategy, characterized by its participation in the open source community, contributes to its financial performance.,Based on the norm of reciprocity and social capital theory, the study proposes a model comprising the behavioral antecedents and business results of a firm's symbiotic relationship with the open source community. Data were collected through a survey. Partial least squares-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to assess the results.,A firm's participative behaviors can have three dimensions: technology giving, technology taking and social participation. Technology taking directly impacts financial performance, whereas the effects of technology giving and social participation on financial performance are fully mediated by the firm's symbiotic relationship with the open source community.,Managers can understand how a specific behavior ultimately contributes to a symbiotic relationship or a firm's financial performance and how to flexibly align participation strategies with the business orientation.,The study adds to the open source literature by refining and enriching the conceptual domain of a firm's participative behaviors in open source communities. It also reveals how contrasting behavioral strategies impact a firm's financial performance.

互惠在企业开源策略中的作用

组织间互惠在软件公司和开源社区之间的关系中起着关键作用。这项研究旨在阐明以参与开源社区为特征的公司的开源战略如何对其财务绩效做出贡献。基于互惠准则和社会资本理论,该研究提出了一个模型,该模型包括行为前因和公司与开源社区共生关系的商业成果。通过调查收集数据。基于偏最小二乘的结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)对结果进行了评估。企业的参与行为可以具有三个维度:技术给予,技术采用和社会参与。技术的采用直接影响财务绩效,而技术给予和社会参与对财务绩效的影响完全由公司与开源社区的共生关系来调节。管理者可以了解特定行为最终如何促进共生关系或公司财务绩效,以及如何灵活调整以业务为导向的参与策略。该研究通过完善和丰富公司在开放源代码社区中的参与行为的概念域,为开放源代码文献增添了色彩。它还揭示了不同的行为策略如何影响公司的财务绩效。管理人员可以了解特定行为如何最终促成共生关系或公司的财务绩效,以及如何灵活地将参与策略与业务方向保持一致。该研究通过完善和丰富公司参与性的概念域,为开源文献增添了色彩。开源社区中的行为。它还揭示了不同的行为策略如何影响公司的财务绩效。管理人员可以了解特定行为如何最终促成共生关系或公司的财务绩效,以及如何灵活地将参与策略与业务方向保持一致。该研究通过完善和丰富公司参与性的概念域,为开源文献增添了色彩。开源社区中的行为。它还揭示了不同的行为策略如何影响公司的财务绩效。
