The Relevance of the Structural-Contingency Model for Organizational Effectiveness
Abstract
Johannes M. Pennings This paper examines the structural-contingency model. Both subjective and objective data were used to explore the degree of association between measures of structure and of environmental uncertainty and related measures of complexity, resourcefulness, competition and instability. The analysis of the data did not support the model; that is, environment has structural correlates, except for the variables of resourcefulness and complexity. The results show furtherthat the goodness of fit between environmental and structural variables fails to explain variance in effectiveness.

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.
