Findings The results validated role boosting expectation, with context dampening positive...

Contracts are frequently violated due to opportunism, misunderstandings, or external factors in construction projects. However, most previous studies focussed on how prevent contract violations but little research has been conducted responses (i.e. enforcement practices) and the affecting these responses. Drawing Attribution Theory, this study constructs a moderated mediating model of decisions, including contractual relational enforcement, from violation, trust then with moderating role...

The importance of understanding individuals’ psychology when studying interorganizational trust has been increasingly acknowledged by researchers in the construction industry. However, few studies have purposely examined individual’s psychological process development between contracting parties. This research investigated how individuals make inferences about counterparty’s trustworthiness from party’s cooperative behaviors. A dual-attribution model was developed based on attribution theory...
