JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAntecedents of partner trust in cross-border partnerships, especially in international joint ventures in developing economies like China, have received little research despite the importance of partner trust to international joint venture management. This paper examines the factors of partner behavior affecting trust in the context of Japanese-Chinese joint ventures in China. Based on a large sample, this study finds that flexibility is the most significant factor for trust building between Japanese and Chinese partners, and that it is also important for headquarters managers in Japan to have active interaction with the joint venture managers in China. The negative effect of partner conflict on trust is found to be only significant in the absence of partnership flexibility-with flexibility, the negative influences can be overcome.View full abstractDownload PDF (1526K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe primary purpose of this study was to explore female workers experiences of sexual harassment and the antecedents and the outcomes of those experiences in the Myanmar workplace. Using the Myanmar versions of Sexual Experiences Questionnaire developed originally by Fitzgerald and colleagues (1988, 1995), a questionnaire survey of working women in Myanmar was conducted. The representative sample included 271 working Myanmar women at a university, along with government and private sectors. The antecedent variables (personal vulnerability, organizational context) and three general types of negative outcome variables (psychological outcomes, physical outcomes, and work-related outcomes) were identified through victims of sexual harassment. Analyses explored the relationship of these antecedents and negative outcomes to type of sexual harassment, and the victim's coping responses. In addition, the influences of self-role belief and attribution style were explored.View full abstractDownload PDF (2427K) -
