1 Cleaning Up the Big Muddy: A Meta-Analytic Review of the determinants of escalation of commitment
Theory Background: Escalation of Commitment
Four sets of determinants (Staw,1976)
1. Project determinants
2. Psychological Determinants
3. Social Determinants
4. Structural Determinants
risk, opportunity cost information, perfomance trend, prefernce for initial decision
sunk cost, time investment, experience, self-confidence, responsibility for failure,ego threat
public evaluation of decision(save face), resistance from others, group identity (conformity)
agency problems
1 Cleaning Up the Big Muddy: A Meta-Analytic Review of the determinants of escalation of commitment
Theory Background: Escalation of Commitment
Relevant theoretical perspectives:
1. Subjective expected utility theory (e.g.,Savage, 1954)
2. Self-justification theory (e.g., Aronson,1968; Festinger, 1957)
3. Prospect theory (e.g.,Kahneman & Tversky, 1979)
4. Goal substitution effect (e.g., Conlon & Garland, 1993)
5. Self-presentation theory (e.g., Goffman, 1959; Jones & Pittman,1982)
6. Agency theory (e.g., Eisenhardt, 1989;Jensen & Meckling, 1976)
1 Cleaning Up the Big Muddy: A Meta-Analytic Review of the determinants of escalation of commitment
Why escalation of commitment…?
Many results but didn’t systematically integrate
Why meta-analysis…?
Meta-analysis provide power and comprehensive overview
Why now…? Staw(1987) said: …as the volume of escalation studies has grown in recent
years, attempts to summarize and integrate this literature . . . have become
increasingly difficult.
Staw(1987) said …the field was “a long way from being able to conduct
such meta-analyses, not only because the empirical studies have been so
few, but because most of the studies have been rather unique conceptually”

Interesting findings:
1.Ego threat has biggest effect size
2.Having people responsible for the project by choosing
them-self or assigning to them doesn’t matter
3.the prominence of sunk costs was lower than expected
4.Opportunity cost salience can lead to de-escalation in
some situations but escalation in others
5.The sharing of decision authority may lead to greater
levels of escalation.

Result:
Study1:
Moral disengagement did not occur when employees
identified strongly with coworkers
Study2:
The indirect effect of envy on social undermining through
moral disengagement occurred only when social identification
was low and team undermining norms were high.

3 Collective Memory Meets Organizational Identity: Remembering to forget in a firms
rhetorical history
Data Base: Business Source CompleteGoogle Scholar Citation Times: 2 (2013.1.2)
Definition:
Organization change (e.g. Merger)
「 Organization identity」 vs 「 Identity endurance」
This research shows how to sustains organization identity by
forgetting a firm’s rhetorical (i.e., structural omission) or
neutralizing new things and old things with valued identity
cues (i.e., preemptive neutralization).

Result:
1. When faced with such contradictions, managers might be
inclined to ignore them; instead, proactively addressing them
is central to identity endurance.
2. Manager’s ability to infuse meaning into work depends in
part on her or his ability to help others remember and forget.
3. The routine traces(e.g. company’s bulletins) can significantly
shape and capture a firm’s identity.
