面对激烈竞争,决策者能否准确识别出符合企业需求的创新方案,关系到企业的存亡和发展。决策者的创新识别已成为组织创造力和创新研究的重点议题。然而,创新识别的已有研究忽略了决策者之间竞争因素的重要影响,无法全面揭示决策者的认知偏差及导致偏差的内在机制。企业创新过程中,决策者常常与领域接近、实力相当的对手长时间较量,普通竞争演变为夙敌之争。鉴于此,本项目基于夙敌之争的理论视角,探讨决策者间的竞争如何影响双方创新识别的准确性。拟综合采用实验室和现场实验、档案分析等研究手段,设计4个研究探讨夙敌之争对决策者创新识别的积极和消极影响,揭示认知加工深度和广度路径的中介作用,并在决策者-决策者二元结对水平探寻其边界条件。本研究从夙敌间竞争角度切入,有望更准确地诊断决策者创新识别的偏差以及导致偏差的内在机制,以帮助决策者更好认识和防范偏差。

Amidst intense competition, the precise recognition of innovative solutions aligned with the enterprise's needs emerges as paramount for a company's survival and growth. Decision-makers' creativity recognition holds a central position in the literature on organizational creativity and innovation. However, existing studies often overlook the substantial impact of competition, leaving decision-makers' cognitive biases and the underlying mechanisms unexplored. Consequently, research findings lack the explanatory power necessary for real-world phenomena. Within the corporate innovation process, decision-makers frequently engage in prolonged competition with closely matched opponents, transforming routine competition into enduring rivalry. Acknowledging this context, the current project adopts a relational competition perspective to investigate how the rivalry between decision-makers influences the accuracy of creativity recognition for both parties. Employing a mixed-method approach, encompassing laboratory experiments, field studies, and archival analysis across four studies, the project explores the nuanced effects of rivalry on decision-makers' creativity recognition. Furthermore, the project seeks to unveil the mediating roles of cognitive processing depth and breadth paths while examining the boundary conditions. Leveraging the rivalry perspective, this project sheds new light on decision-makers' cognitive biases in creativity recognition and the underlying mechanisms contributing to these biases. In terms of practical implications, this project can also assist decision-makers in comprehending and mitigating biases effectively.
