Abstract: This study investigated the antecedents of commitment in IJVs from the major partners' perspective. Data were gathered from Japanese and local partners in IJVs located in eleven countries and analyzed in structural equations models. Results indicated that commitment is largely a function of the perceived benefits of the relationship, i.e., satisfaction and economic performance. However, exploration analyses of differences between local partners and the Japanese suggest that the effects of psychological antecedents might be contingent on the strategic intent of the relationship.

Conventional wisdom on measurement: A structural equation perspective.
TL;DR: In this paper, the applicability of five conventional guidelines for construct measurement is critically examined: (a) Construct indicators should be internally consistent for valid measures, (b) there are optimal magnitudes of correlations between items, (c) the validity of measures depends on the adequacy with which a specified domain is sampled, within-construct correlations must be greater than between construct correlations, and (e) linear composites of indicators can replace latent variables.
