- Social Capital and the Diffusion of Innovations Within Organizations: The Case of Computer Technology in Schools (2004, background): “In particular, if social capital is like other forms of capital, it is a fixed resource (Bourdieu 1986; Robison, Schmidt, and Siles 2002).”
- Intellectual capital: disentangling an enigmatic concept (2006, background): “Authors who take a societal level of analysis (Putnam, 1993; Teachman et al., 1997; Robinson et al., 2002) view the relationships as comprising a dense and rich social community (Cohen and Fields, 1999) which is developed over time for the society to benefit.”
- The environmental-social interface of sustainable development: capabilities, social capital, institutions (2004, background): “The debate of whether social capital can actually be considered a capital, in the economic sense of the term (see, e.g., Arrow, 1999; Solow, 1999; Robinson et al., 2002), has little relevance for the present purpose.”
- Good for the Soul: the relationship between work, wellbeing and psychological capital (2009, methodology): “• Self-esteem: Rosenberg’s (1965) 10 question scale was used to assess feelings of selfworth.”
- Can trust in politicians explain individuals' support for climate policy? The case of CO2 tax (2006, background): “Although widely contested (Bankston and Zhou, 2002; Fine, 2001; Portes, 1998; Robison et al., 2002), social capital usually refers to two different aspects: degree of social networking and degree of generalized trust (e.g. Putnam et al., 1993; cf. Stolle, 2001; Wuthnow, 1998).”
- Social capital, member participation, and cooperative performance: Evidence from China’s Zhejiang (2015, background): “Social networks extend the resource exchange and linkages between individuals and groups, which promotes product innovation and speeds the diffusion of innovations (Robison et al. 2002, Tsai and Ghoshal 1998).”
