Entrepreneurship, innovation and regional growth: a network theory (2015, background): “These inertial network forces highlight the issue of over-embeddedness, whereby the actors an organisation is best connected to may not be best placed to provide solutions to current problems (Krackhardt 1994; Monge and Contractor 2003; Maurer and Ebers 2006).”
The Application of Social Network Analysis to Team Sports (2010, background): “The edited work by Wasserman and Faust (1994 ) and Scott (2000 ) are recommended as comprehensive introductions to SNA, though many other papers (eg, Freeman, 1979 ) and books (eg, Monge & Contractor, 2003 ) provide specialist information about particular SNA issues.”
Office Chit-Chat as a Social Ritual: The Uplifting Yet Distracting Effects of Daily Small Talk at Work (2020, neutral): “First,againstthebackdropofwell-establishedliteraturesonpersonalrelationships (e.g.,Allen&Eby,2012),communicationnetworks (e.g.,Monge&Contractor,2003),high-qualityinterac-tions(e.g.,Dutton&Heaphy,2003),andworkplace…”
Analyzing and modeling real-world phenomena with complex networks: a survey of applications (2007, background): “The first kind of network construction, henceforth called communication mapping, is obtained by monitoring communications between nodes of a network [40].”
Secondhand Brokerage: Evidence On The Importance Of Local Structure For Managers, Bankers, And Analysts (2007, background): “…(2002), Baker (2000), Brass, Galaskiewicz, Greve, and Tsai (2004), Burt (2005), Cohen and Prusak (2001), Cross and Cummings (2004), Cross and Parker (2004), Lin (2002), Monge and Contractor (2003), Oh, Chung, and Labianca (2004), Pollock, Porac, and Wade (2004), and Soda, Usai, and Zaheer (2004).”
Revisiting the Foundations of Network Analysis (2009, background): “In other cases [such as multilevel processes ( 22 )], simultaneous analysis of the same system at multiple levels of aggregation may be appropriate.”
Network Exchange Patterns in Online Communities (2011, background): “Although an individual may have different, potentially conflicting, propensities to act on selfless or selfish intrinsic motivations, exchange theory finds that when faced with similar structural constraints, individuals act—in aggregate, if not individually—in a consistent, predictable manner.”
A communication model of employee cynicism toward organizational change (2008, background): “Ego-centered network is defined as “the subset of the overall network that exists among the partners in an individual’s network” (Monge & Contractor, 2003, p. 39).”
Knowledge flow and inter-firm networks: The influence of network resources, spatial proximity and firm size (2010, background): “Unless diversity is sustained, in the long-run networks may reduce firm heterogeneity through the articulation of shared norms, standards, and rules of conduct among firms (Oliver 1997 ; Monge and Contractor 2003 ).”
Distributed leadership in teams: The network of leadership perceptions and team performance. (2006, background): “Not only would such research contribute to our ability to understand and potentially harness distributed leadership in teams, it would help address fundamental questions that are being raised about the processes of change and transition in networks (e.g., Monge & Contractor, 2003; Watts, 1999).”
What's Different about Social Media Networks? A Framework and Research Agenda (2014, background): “Networks that examine different types of nodes typically employ specialized metrics, because each type of node has fundamentally different characteristics, such as two-mode or multi-mode networks (Borgatti and Everett 1997; Faust 1997; Monge and Contractor 2003).”
Knowledge, Networks, and Knowledge Networks (2011, background): “…knowledge elements, distributed repositories of knowledge, and/or agents that search for, transmit, and create knowledge—that are interconnected by relationships that enable and constrain the acquisition, transfer, and creation of knowledge (Monge & Contractor, 2003; Yayavaram & Ahuja, 2008).”
