Integration and Differentiation in Institutional Values: An Empirical Investigation in the Field of Canadian National Sport Organizations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Integrating institutional theory's institutional isomorphism with integration and differentiation cultural views, the study examines the sources of variation in institutionally prescribed values in the field of Canadian National Sport Organizations. The results indicate support for the adaptation of institutional based values and norms among individual actors from both integration and differentiation perspectives. Specifically, results demonstrate institutionally prescribed values to be mostly monolithically adapted at the organizational level. However, in spite of uniformity in most organizations as well as institution-wide strength, these values are also prone to be manifested distinctively around functional subgroups across the field. Implications of results for research on both institutional theory and culture are discussed. Résumé La présente étude examine, grâce à une synthèse harmonieuse entre la théorie institutionnelle de l'isomorphisme et les vues culturelles sur la différenciation et l'intégration, les sources de variation dans les valeurs prescrites par les institutions dans le domaine du Canadian National Sport Organizations. Les résultats indiquent la nécessité d'adapter les normes et les valeurs institutionnelles aux acteurs individuels. Plus spécifique, les résultats montrent que les valeurs prescrites par les institutions sont, pour la plupart, adaptées de façon monolithique au niveau organisationnel. Mais en dépit de cette uniformité dans la plupart des organisations, ces valeurs ont tendance à se manifester différemment dans tous les sous-groupes fonctionnels du domaine étudié. L'étude s'achève par un examen des implications des résultats pour la recherche sur la théorie et la culture institutionnelles.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
