The value of human capital resources (HCR) is widely recognized, but relatively little is known about their creation. Research conceptualizes HCR emergence as enabled through shared states which form in response to environmental conditions. Although this view implies that social interactions play a role in creating HCR, theory currently fails to clarify how social interactions act as key facilitators of the emergence process. This limitation persists partly because the structure and content of the social interactions are unaccounted for, making it impossible to fully understand and predict when HCR will be generated through the HCR emergence process. To address this deficiency, we draw from social capital literature, which provides a rich view of the structure and content of social interactions, to develop HCR emergence theory. This theory brings needed precision to theoretical perspectives on HCR emergence by proposing how unique features of social interactions influence the creation of HCR through the emergence process.

人力资本资源的出现：社会资本的作用

人力资本资源 (HCR) 的价值得到广泛认可，但对其创造的了解却相对较少。研究将 HCR 的出现概念化为通过响应环境条件而形成的共享状态。虽然这种观点暗示社会互动在创造 HCR 中发挥作用，但目前理论未能阐明社会互动如何作为出现过程的关键促进因素。这种限制持续存在的部分原因是社会互动的结构和内容下落不明，因此无法完全理解和预测 HCR 何时会通过 HCR 出现过程产生。为了解决这一缺陷，我们从社会资本文献中汲取了丰富的关于社会互动结构和内容的观点，以发展 HCR 涌现理论。
