| Abstract: | This study examines empirically the moderating effects of age and partner trust on the relationship between control mechanisms and perceptions of performance in 129 U.S. based international joint ventures (=IJVs). A reliance on formal control mechanisms and general managers' perceptions of IJV performance were found to be positively related in younger IJVs, but this relationship became negative in more mature IJVs. In addition, social control mechanism and perceptions of IJV performance were positively related, but only in the presence of affect-based trust btw. the parents. |
