Drawing from resource dependence theory and social network theory, we explain how structural holes impact on network expansion in the R&D network. We adopt the social network perspectives to extend this research by offering a model that examines how knowledge recombination moderates relationship between structural holes and network expansion. We collect the panel patent data from information and communication technology (ICT) industry between 1994 and 2016 by Derwent Innovation Database, and use the fixed-effects negative binomial regression model to test the hypotheses. Results reveal that structural holes have a positive impact on network expansion. In addition, this relationship is positively moderated by the potential for knowledge recombination and negatively moderated by coordination cost of knowledge recombination.

结构洞如何促进网络扩张?

借鉴资源依赖理论和社会网络理论,我们解释了结构漏洞如何影响研发网络中的网络扩展。我们采用社交网络的观点通过提供一个模型来扩展这项研究,该模型检查知识重组如何调节结构漏洞和网络扩展之间的关系。我们通过德温特创新数据库收集了 1994 年至 2016 年信息和通信技术 (ICT) 行业的面板专利数据,并使用固定效应负二项式回归模型来检验假设。结果表明,结构孔对网络扩展有积极影响。此外,这种关系受到知识重组潜力的积极调节,并受到知识重组的协调成本的消极调节。
