relationships, Kaisa Henttonen, Tiina Jauhiainen, Kirsimarja Blomqvist, Lappeenranta
University of Technology, Department of Business Administration, Finland
Tacit knowledge, and the ability to transfer tacit knowledge between asymmetric parties are
believed to be a key for innovation, and organizational competitiveness. Thus, the issue is how to
protect tacit knowledge related to firm-specific core competencies, and simultaneously share and
transfer critical tacit knowledge for collaborative innovation. Hence our research questions are:
How can tacit knowledge be transferred as a part of innovation process in asymmetric supply
relationships? How can firms simultaneously protect tacit knowledge related to their core
competencies? Our empirical fieldwork consists of two case studies in the metal industry sector.
3113.8 The impact of emotional intelligence and organizational climate on the perception of
working stress, Vincenzo Majer 1 , Gabriele Giorgi 2 , 1 Psychology Department, University of
Florence, Italy, 2 University of Verona, Italy
The present study tends to explore the emerging correlations between the dimension of
organizational climate and the individual differences. We decided afterwards we would focus on
the analysis between emotional intelligence and stress. The database of the research came from a
work of organizational diagnosis realized by industrial and public firms. The employers of the
firms have been invited to compile an articulated survey about the constructs of emotional
intelligence and organizational climate and about other constructs that investigate the peculiarities
of a person who can experience stress and the results of stress at an individual and organizational
level.

3114.1 Can morality of authority moderate the interaction between procedural justice and
outcome favorability? The Chinese case, Xiaowan Lin, Hongsheng Che, School of Psychology,
Beijing Normal University, China
The research examined whether morality of authority moderates the interactive relationship
between procedural justice and outcome favorability in China. Three independent variables
(morality of authority, procedural justice, and outcome favorability) were manipulated in study 1,
and were measured in study 2. The two studies in different setting yielded consistent results. The
key triple interactive effect does exist in China. Only when the morality of authority is high, fair
procedure can reduce the effect of outcome favorability. When morality of authority is low, the
interaction between procedural justice and outcome favorability and the main effect of procedural
justice are both nonsignificant.
