Figure 2
Line graph showing predicted firm performance across levels of partner-specific uncertainty with two lines representing low-status and high-status firms. The horizontal axis represents partner-specific uncertainty ranging from low to high, and the vertical axis represents predicted firm performance. The dashed line represents low-status firms, and the solid line represents high-status firms. As partner-specific uncertainty increases, predicted performance rises for high-status firms and declines for los-status firms. The two lines cross at moderate levels of uncertainty and diverge thereafter, with high-status firms exhibiting higher predicted performance at high levels of uncertainty. The shaded areas around the lines indicate 95% confidence intervals.Effect of partner-specific uncertainty and status on linear prediction of firm performance
