Partner Similarity

We studied initial and long–term outcomes of speed–dating over a period of 1 year in a community sample involving 382 participants aged 18–54 years. They were followed from their initial choices of dating partners up to later mating (sexual intercourse) and relating (romantic relationship). Using Social Relations Model analyses, we examined evolutionarily informed hypotheses on both individual and dyadic effects of participants’ physical characteristics, personality, education and income on their dating, mating and relating. Both men and women based their choices mainly on the dating partners’ physical attractiveness, and women additionally on men's sociosexuality, openness to experience, shyness, education and income. Choosiness increased with age in men, decreased with age in women and was positively related to popularity among the other sex, but mainly for men. Partner similarity had only weak effects on dating success. The chance for mating with a speed–dating partner was 6%, and was increased by men's short–term mating interest; the chance for relating was 4%, and was increased by women's long–term mating interest.

Alliance Governance

Chapter 11 considers the governance and control of alliances. It begins with the aims of alliance governance. It continues by considering the key issue of partner control, including formal and informal ways of exercising control. It discusses different dimensions of control that apply to alliances. These are the extent of control exercised by partners over their alliance, the activities and decisions which they control (focus), the mechanisms by which control is exercised, and the foundations for control. The chapter then discusses different combinations of control and coordination mechanisms which are appropriate for coping with the alliance governance challenges arising from financial, resource, and market risks as well as from the requirement to overcome potential conflicts and to ensure the necessary level of internal coordination. While the chapter focuses on governance in international joint ventures, it also discusses the governance of collaborations and of global value chains.

The Individual

Do people have a “type” when it comes to their romantic partners’ personalities? In the present research, we used data from a 9-y longitudinal study in Germany and examined the similarity between an individual’s ex- and current partners using the partners’ self-reported personality profiles. Based on the social accuracy model, our analyses distinguished similarity between partners that was attributable to similarity to an average person (normative similarity) and resemblance to the target participant himself/herself (self-partner similarity) to more precisely examine similarity from partner to partner (distinctive similarity). The results revealed a significant degree of distinctive partner similarity, suggesting that there may indeed be a unique type of person each individual ends up with. We also found that distinctive partner similarity was weaker for people high in extraversion or openness to experience, suggesting that these individuals may be less likely to be in a relationship with someone similar to their ex-partner (although the individual difference effects were not mirrored in an alternative analytic approach). These findings provide evidence for stability in distinctive partner personality and have important implications for predicting future partnering behaviors and actions in romantic relationships.

The Relationship

Relying on resource dependence theory and transaction cost economics, this article discusses the important role of alliance governance as a mediating mechanism in the relationship between market orientation and innovation, and compares the differences between the influences of different dimensions. The article aims to reveal the influence mechanism of different types of alliance governance on the relationship between market orientation and innovation. Based on a sample of 122 Chinese manufacturing enterprises, the article finds that: (1) contractual governance will increase when customer orientation and competitor orientation become higher, and contractual governance will affect radical innovation in a U-shaped way; (2) trust governance will increase when inter-functional coordination become higher, and trust governance has a positive impact on both radical innovation and incremental innovation (II).

Alliance Governance

In the actual course of commercial operations, governance mode is mainly divided into two categories: alliance mode, leading by real estate developer, and integrated mode, leading by commercial operators. The transaction efficiency and cost vary corresponding to the different mode. In this paper, based on the traditional market, hybrid and hierarchical mode framework in transaction cost theory, inframarginal theory and the actual Chinese commercial management, the author discusses the existing conditions of market, hybrid and hierarchical mode, verifies that the complete market mode in the actual operation process does not exist, at the same time, deeply analyses boundary conditions for the existence and basis for decision making of the alliance mode and integration mode.
