An Analysis of the Axiological Antecedents of Inter-Organizational Collaboration in Resilience Planning Using Exponential Random Graph Models

Publication: Construction Research Congress 2024

ABSTRACT

Building resilient communities requires effective collaboration among multisector stakeholders. However, stakeholders may hold different value priorities in implementing resilience strategies. Heterogeneous collections of value priorities form distinct value systems. Differences rooted in value systems may cause conflicts that impede stakeholder collaboration. Despite extensive studies on stakeholder collaboration, there is a lack of systematic understanding on how the value systems of various stakeholders influence their collaboration. To bridge this gap, this study focused on examining the impact of stakeholders’ value systems on their collaboration patterns through network and exponential random graph model (ERGM) analyses using data collected from a survey. Our results show that stakeholders’ value systems have significant impacts on their collaboration patterns (i.e., presence or absence of collaboration, frequency of communication) in resilience planning. The findings of this study offer insight to enhance stakeholder collaboration in community resilience planning by considering stakeholder value systems.
