چکیده

     باوجود مطرح‌‌شدن ایده مفهوم‌‌سازی سازوکارهای کنترلی به‌‌عنوان یک بسته از چندین دهه پیش، پژوهش‌‌های نظری و تجربی اندکی در این مورد انجام ‌‌شده است. در ادبیات برای توسعه چارچوب‌‌های مفهومی با نگاه بسته‌‌ای، سه مسئله یا چالش شناسایی‌‌ شده است. هدف اولیه این مطالعه شفاف‌‌سازی در مورد این چالش‌‌ها و شناسایی چالش‌‌های دیگری است که در ادبیات مورد‌‌توجه قرار نگرفته‌‌اند. در ادامه سه چارچوب مفهومی بسته‌‌ای از کنترل که در پژوهش‌‌های قبلی معرفی‌‌شده‌‌اند بر مبنای چالش‌‌های شناسایی‌‌شده و از طریق تحلیل انتقادی پیش‌‌فرض‌‌های بنیادین این چارچوب‌‌ها نقد شده و درنهایت یک چارچوب نوع شناسی کل‌‌نگرانه جدید از بسته کنترل ارائه می‌‌شود که مبتنی بر سه دسته ساز‌‌و‌‌کار کنترل و شش بعد اضافی شناسایی‌‌شده در ادبیات توسعه داده می‌‌شود. در آخر نیز پیشنهاد‌‌هایی برای پیشبرد پژوهش‌‌های تجربی در این خصوص به‌‌منظور توسعه نظریه‌‌های پیکربندی جدید در این مورد ارائه می‌‌شود.  Abstract     There has been little explicit theoretical and empirical research on the concept of control mechanisms as a package despite the existence of the idea in control literature for decades. There are three issues in the literature about developing control package framework. The initial purpose of this paper is to clarify a number of other issues that not considered in past researches. Then three control package frameworks which introduced in past researches have been criticized based on issues identified and By Critical analysis of fundamental Assumptions of these frameworks. We provide a new typology for control package structured around three control mechanisms and six extra dimensions which identified in literature in a more holistic manner. Finally we provide suggestions on how control research could proceed to produce better configurational theories in this regard.t
