First, the relationship between psychological characteristics and self-efficiency, and the path coefficient for psychological characteristics and network were significant. Second, management capabilities was related to self-efficiency, and the path factor for managing capability and network relationships was significant. Lastly, the path coefficients for self-efficiency and collaboration strategies were not significant, and the path coefficients for network and collaboration strategies were significant.
