Toward a framework of corporate merger processes and outcomes : a behavioral perspective - New York : Marcel Dekker, 2003
Traditionality, the merger literature has examined mergers and acquisitions from a strategic of financial perspective, largely overlooking important behavioral issues. In this paper, we present a comprehensive behavior-based framework of merger processes and outcomes designed to provide more academic rigor to the study of the behavioral aspects of the merger process. The proposed framework combines and synthesizes established merger-related behavioral concepts and relationships with new ones that are not encompassed within the current literature
