摘要

1977年四月，盧丹斯與史蒂華發表了“一般權變管理理論」的論文，該文表達了對權變理論的新看法，並提出了三個變數。此三變數分別是績效標準變數，情境變數及管理變傲。作者並認為績效標準變數是情境變數與管理變數互動之結果而決定的。本研究將上述三個變數予以修改和重新定義為目標致能變數、環境變數及管理變數。主要是運用空間的觀念以建立目標效能函數；亦即以環境變數、管理變數為自變數，以目標效能變數為因變數，而將自發數與因變數之關係以數學形式表達。

並列摘要

In April 1977, Luthans & Stewart published ”A General Contingency Theory of Management” which brought the new idea of the Contingency Theory and provided 3 variables - the Performance Criteria Variables, the Situational Variables and the Management Variables. Luthans & Stewart also committed that the Performance Criteria Variables are determined by the interaction of the Situational & Management Variables.However, this thesis makes revision of the said variables and re-defines them as the Objective Effectiveness Variable, the Environment Variables and the Management Variables. It mainly uterlizes the space concept to establish the Objective Effectiveness Function. i.e., to make the Environment Variables and Management Variables as independent variables, while the Objective Effectiveness Variable as dependent variable, and determine the mathematics relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable.
