This paper jointly examines performance and conditions surrounding membership as determinants of the decision to stay or leave an R & D consortium. Hypotheses were developed for performance and by drawing form power dependence and transaction cost theories, for conditions surrounding membership. Analysis of survey questionnaire data from 184 member organizations of U. S. based R & D consortia indicates that performance and the conditions of knowledge - related involvement, network ties, learning, and alternatives are related to the decision to stay in or leave. These results provide limited support for power dependence but are more consistent with transaction cost theory. Subsequent analyses revealed an interaction between performance and membership conditions, suggesting performance leads to the conditions of membership, and that the continuity decision for a poorly performing consortium differs from that for one performing well.
