| Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores whether eclectic theory (principal-agent theory incorporating key insights of social exchange theory) leads to better predictions about internal control systems in corporations than does principal-agent theory. Eclectic theory is shown to be able to explain various "puzzles" for principal-agent theory. Moreover, several predictions are tested on 1985 data on 116 executive board members of medium-sized Dutch firms. |
