Ö stratejilerini belirleyebilecekleri öne sürülmektedir. Mevcut çalışmada ise durumsallık teorisi üzerine bir model bulundukları performansları üzerindeki etkisi ile ilgili bir araştırma oluşturulan modelde, "ihracat destek programları" ve "çevresel tehdit" ile "ihracat performansı" arasındaki ilişki analiz edilmiştir. Buna ek olarak, içinde bulunulan ülkenin "kurumsal kalitesinin", yukarıda belirtilen ikili ilişki üzerindeki düzenleyici rolü de ayrıca ele alınmıştır. Veriler, kurumsal kalite endeksi yönünden birbirinden farklılaşmış iki ülke olan Hollanda ve Türkiye'deki KOBİ düzeyindeki ihracatçılardan toplanmış ve toplam 325 yanıt elde edilmiştir. Bu yanıtların Kısmi En Küçük Kareler Regresyon Yöntemi ile incelenmesi sonucunda ihracat destek programlarının, firmaların ihracat performansları üzerinde pozitif bir etkisinin olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca kurumsal kalitenin yüksek olduğu ortamlarda çevresel tehdidin ihracat üzerindeki pozitif etkisinin güçlendiği çalışma sonunda ortaya konmuştur
