Abstract

The mixed empirical results on the impact of social capital call for a better understanding of the conditioning effect of contextual differences. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess whether and how social capital functions similarly or differently between China and the West. Both network centrality and the bridging of structural holes are positively related to performance, but the impact of structural holes is not significant in China. The findings suggest that network centrality is more effective than the bridging of structural holes in China, whereas network centrality and the bridging of structural holes both have a positive impact on performance in the West.

Qian, Xu, and Yang (2010) and Qian, Yang, and Xu (2010) use the same dataset as Ren, Wu, and Wang (2011) and Wu (2010). We choose to retain papers that provide more analytical information. Qian, Yang, and Xu (2010) and Wu (2010) are excluded.

Some of the 49 studies examined multiple networks, and some also reported multiple independent variables and dependent variables.

Guan et al. (2016) use two minus Constraint to measure the degree of spanning structural holes.

In the literature review, we did not find papers based on data from Macau and Hong Kong. Thus, the papers in Chinese that are included in the study were all based on data from Mainland China and Taiwan. Whether Singapore should be regarded as part of the greater China region is debatable; however, our literature review did not find studies situated in Singapore.

We thank the anonymous reviewer for this suggestion.
