“…Chinese firms may have decided to deal with those core TCE concerns through means other than formal contracts. Research on emerging markets should therefore consider important institutional factors that may draw a theoretical boundary to the TCE framework (Chen et al, 2002;Hoskisson et al, 2000;Kelly and Worthley, 1981;Peng and Heath, 1996).…”

“…Previous investigations are either dated (Beer/Gery 1972, Jurgensen 1978, Kelly/Worthley 1981, Nealey 1963, 1964, in which reward preferences are treated as static states (Pearson/Chatterjee 1999), or have been limited to the study of preferences for financial rewards and pay systems (Fay/Thompson 2001, Hempel 1998, Lowe et al 2002 and non-financial job facets (Harpaz 1990), or to a particular employee group in isolation (Harvey 1993, Pennings 1993. Non-financial rewards, especially intrinsic types, have on the whole been excluded from the research agenda.…”

and Key Results■ The present study empirically investigates employee reward preferences in the cross-national context using a sample drawn from 60 companies in two culturally distinct countries, Finland and China (Hong Kong).■ The results underscore the benefits of adopting a total reward management approach which includes a mix of financial and non-financial rewards.■ We found that a fuller appreciation of reward preferences entails consideration of employee characteristics and other contextual factors beyond culture.

“…The method used in this study is somewhat comparable with Kelly and Worthly's (1981) measurement of similarities and differences in the managerial attitudes of Japanese, Japanese-American and Caucasian-American managers. However, the purpose of their study was to isolate the role of culture to test its relationship to managerial attitudes.…”

To make comparisons between ethnic Chinese in different countries, the work‐related values of middle managers from Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand were compared. Hong Kong and Singapore are characterized by a large Chinese majority and a dominant Chinese culture; whereas, in Thailand, the Chinese comprise a small minority, well integrated into Thai society. Therefore, the study hypothesized that similarities between the work values in Hong Kong and Singapore would be greater than between Hong Kong and Thailand or Singapore and Thailand. The findings, however, showed that there were twice as many significant differences in work values between Hong Kong and Singapore. Generally, however, Chinese work values were found to be quite consistent across the three societies.
