In this conceptual paper, we argue that host-country nationals (HCNs), without crossing geographical and organizational boundaries, experience distinct and complex interaction adjustment processes in response to their social exchange relationships with expatriates. We develop a theoretical model that suggests that the perceived value of the relationships between HCNs and expatriates, the structure of these relationships, and the HCNs' alternative sources of exchange resources predict HCNs' learning-rich interactions with expatriates and HCNs' extraneous stress, which, in turn, influence HCNs' interaction adjustment. Along with research implications, our theorizing points to features that can improve HCN and expatriate selection, preparation, and management.

作为社会交换的东道国国民互动调整：一个理论模型

在这篇概念性论文中，我们认为东道国国民 (HCN) 在不跨越地理和组织边界的情况下，会经历独特而复杂的互动调整过程，以响应他们与外籍人士的社会交流关系。我们开发了一个理论模型，该模型表明 HCN 与外派人员之间关系的感知价值、这些关系的结构以及 HCN 的替代交换资源来源预测 HCN 与外派人员的学习丰富的互动和 HCN 的外来压力，这，反过来，影响 HCN 的交互调整。除了研究意义外，我们的理论还指出了可以改善 HCN 和外派人员选择、准备和管理的特征。
