摘要

This study explores some ways for codifying the systematic testing and refining of management theory. Few procedures have been developed to guide the management theorist in his quest for theories with greater predictability and generality. In the present research, structure and process management is evaluated as to its potential for achieving greater predictability and generality.; Five ways commonly used by researchers to improve their theories are evaluated to the degree they affect predictability and generality of theory. The ways are varying the number of predictor variables, varying the type of dependent variable, varying the type of relationship between predictor variables and dependent variables, refining the reliability of measurements, and varying the degree of homogeneity of samples. The five ways are compared on the amount of variance in the dependent variables each explains. Prediction was found to be significantly influenced by all five improvement approaches with the type of dependent variable and homogeneity of samples having the greatest effect.; The finding that the homogeneity of the samples affect the degree of predictability the most, supports the literature on contingency theorizing in management. This finding indicates, however, that generality and predictablity are trade-offs. Implications of these findings are discussed with regard to the structure and process theory explored in this study and the methodological approach developed in the research to refine theory systematically.
