Research On The Measurement Of Technological Innovation In SMEs Based On A Cognitive Perspective

Nowadays,technological innovation,as the original source of enterprises' sustainable economic development and the very guarantee of companies' permanent existence,has been increasingly regarded as one of the most important elements of enterprises' competitive advantage.So the research on technological innovation in Small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs)has become more important and pressing. Meanwhile,we find that reasonable measurement of the technological innovation in SMEs has become a burning question.At present,the research on technological innovation in SMEs,is in it sin fancy. Neither theoretical research on measurement of technological innovation nor authentic-proof study of its evaluation is effectively implemented.As for the reasons, it is often in connection with the research view as well as the current theories and methods.Base on the background,the research topic is divided into three parts:(1)How to choose the applicable research view?(2)How to makt intensive studies of technological innovation from the research view?(3)How to establish the indicator system for the technological innovation in SMEs and test the relationship?Carrying on the measurement of technological innovation in SMEs,the paper analyzes the process of enterprise technological innovation from a cognitive perspective and proposes three hypotheses to explain the structure components,then proposes a conceptual model and takes it as the basis of the establishment of the indicator system.After the demonstration research,the research gets a reasonable measurement indicator system of the technological innovation in SMEs based on the cognitive perspective.In addition,the hypotheses are validated,which means the validity of the conceptual model.At last,the paper shows an internal relationship of the sample date and represents the meaning for the management of technological innovation in SMEs,aiming to be helpful to the further studies.
