Mediating Influences on the Relationsmp between Market Orientation and Profitability in Small Industrial Firms
Abstract
This research sought to investigate potential mediating influences on the market orientation-profitability relationship in a model which operationalizes performance as a multi-dimensional construct.The conclusions are based on a structural equation model analysis of the responses of 160 small industrial firms responding to a mailed survey. this research suggests that market orientation directly and significantly influences the firm effectiveness dimension of performance, composed of new product success, customer retention, and relative product quality. Firm effectiveness is found to be a mediating variable between market orientation and the performance dimensions of sales growth/market share and profitability.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
