Abstract:
Purpose /SignificanceThe paper intends to clarify the relationship and degree of influence between supply chain collaboration trust and cooperative performance, improve the universality of research conclusions, and find the moderating effects of contextual and measuring factors that a single empirical study is difficult to explore.
Method/ProcessThis paper conducts a meta-analysis on 55 valid independent empirical research samples.
Result/ConclusionThe results show that supply chain collaboration trust has a moderate promotion effect on cooperation performance. What is more, the relationship between the two is also moderated by cultural differences, market situation differences, the marketization level of sampling areas, types of cooperative performance, and whether or not mediators are introduced. Specifically, for the samples of collectivism-dominated culture, from developing countries or regions, after the financial crisis broke out, and the from developing countries or regions, positive effects of supply chain collaboration trust on cooperative performance are much stronger. In addition, compared with the objective cooperation performance, the overall effect on subjective cooperative performance is more obvious. Compared with the situation without considering mediator, the effect is more obvious when introducing in mediator.
