Justice in the family firm: An integrative review and future research agenda

Abstract

To extend the understanding of justice perceptions in family firms, we take stock of the small but growing literature by reviewing notable conceptual and empirical papers published in the last 15 years that put forward research questions, propositions, and hypotheses related to justice perceptions in the family firm context. With the goal of providing a future research agenda, we identify research questions awaiting empirical answers and present potential difficulties in translating conceptual ideas into empirical studies. To capture differences in how the family aspect of a firm may influence justice, we discuss and identify reliable, valid measures of justice-related constructs and family influence.
