ABSTRACT
This chapter examines the links between organizational cooperation behavior and strategies in crises, with particular focus on two empirical questions: what significant empirical relationships are there between the behaviors and the strategies, and how are organizational cooperation behaviors and strategies identified linked to the characteristics of crisis. Using a correlations analysis with a Kendall's coefficient and a significance cutoff of.05 one find a number of correlations between individual decision-occasion indicators and individual case level indicators. Based on how the concepts are coded in the dataset and the meaning that the variables carry, the chapter posit a number of hypotheses about the relationship between cooperative behavior at occasions for decision and the overall cooperative strategies that span across the crisis case. The component scores generated by the CATPCA procedure, used to identify the behaviors and strategies, are used as continuous indicator measures of each behavior and strategy.
