概要	This paper examines how the size and strategy of Japanese cross-border acquirers influence their choice between partial and full acquisitions. We classify acquirers as having either consistent or flexible strategies. Drawing from strategy and international business literature, we propose and empirically confirm an interaction between firm size and strategic orientation in determining acquisition mode. Large acquirers tend to prefer full acquisitions, whereas small acquirers favor partial ones. Strategy also matters for smaller firms: those with consistent strategies lean toward full acquisitions, while those with flexible strategies choose partial acquisitions. For large acquirers, however, strategic orientation has only a weak effect on acquisition behavior.
