Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
While existing literature provides rich insights into how supplier involvement significantly contributes to manufacturers' innovation, the effect of supplier involvement on manufacturers' firm creativity remains unclear. By incorporating social network theory with organizational capability theory, this study aims to examine how manufacturers can leverage supplier involvement to enhance firm creativity. The results of dyadic data of 228 manufacturers and suppliers reveal that new knowledge sharing mediates the effect of supplier involvement on firm creativity. In addition, relational governance capability enhances the effect of supplier involvement on new knowledge sharing, while joint learning capability strengthens the effect of new knowledge sharing on firm creativity. Interestingly, the link between new knowledge sharing and firm creativity is an inverted U-shaped relationship. In addition, joint learning capability not only strengthens the positive effect of, but also alleviates the negative effect of new knowledge sharing on firm creativity. These findings provide novel insights for manufacturers to align supplier involvement, new knowledge sharing, and firm capabilities to enhance firm creativity.
