| Abstract: | This study evaluates the construct validity of measures of the performance of strategic alliances in 34 equity strategic alliances (SAs) and 45 contractual SAs. Empirical results show that the fulfilment of strategic goals, and other organizational effectiveness measures of satisfaction and net spillover effects - capture different underlying factors. The latter two measures display convergent validity. The results also support the discriminant validity of these two measures with respect to contractual changes and survival, but not with respect to longevity. Building on our findings, the author proposes an expanded definition of SA performance that considers both outcome and process performance. |
