Abstract
A hypothesized relationship between environmental variation and organizational actions is central to organization theory. This study shows that conventional summary measures of instability do not capture all dimensions of environmental variation. This problem is addressed with frequency, amplitude, and predictability measures that characterize the pattern of environmental variation.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
