The next two hypotheses have the same dependent variable: the development of
new SMOs and SMIs. Hypothesis 2 reads: The more resources are available to the
SMS, the more new SMIs and SMOs will develop that compete for these resources.
Hypothesis 3 addresses the resources of “conscience adherents”: the greater the
amount of resources available to them, “the more likely is the development of
SMOs and SMIs that respond to preferences for change” (1225). This hypothesis
holds regardless of the resources available to those who directly profit if the SMOs
reach their goals.
