摘要：Karl Weick's classic study of sensemaking showed that there is much to be learned from a wildland fire. In this tradition, we present an ethnographic tale from the subarctic to introduce the concept of ecological sensemaking-the process used to make sense of material landscapes and ecological processes. We then reanalyze data from the Mann Gulch fire and conclude that ecological sensemaking and ecological materiality were underappreciated dimensions of this historic tragedy. Comparisons of inc...

摘要：Leveraging a longitudinal data set concerning 102 interfirm disputes, we evaluate the effects of contract structure on trust and on the likelihood of continued collaboration. We theoretically refine and empirically extend prior research by (1) distinguishing between the control and coordination functions of contracts, (2) separating goodwill-based and competence-based trust, and (3) evaluating the effects of contract structure on relational outcomes in the context of disputes. We find that con...

摘要：We examine how start-of-workday mood serves as an affective prime that relates to how employees see work events, how they feel subsequent to events, and how this felt affect relates to objective performance. Using experience sampling and both archival and coded performance, we tested these relationships in a call center. We found that start-of-workday mood relates to employee perceptions of customer affective display and employee affect subsequent to events (i.e., calls). Positive affect subse...

摘要：Drawing on social identity theory, we explore the identities, behaviors, and actions of 49 firm founders in the sports-related equipment industry. Our analysis suggests the existence of three pure types of founder identities and shows how these identities systematically shape key decisions in the creation of new firms, thereby imprinting the start-ups with the founders' distinct self-concepts. We synthesize our findings in a typology that sheds light on the heterogeneous meanings that founders...

摘要：The causes of workplace deviance are of increasing interest to organizations. We integrate psychological and neurocognitive perspectives to examine the effects of sleep deprivation on workplace deviance. Utilizing self-regulatory resource theories, we argue that sleep deprivation decreases individuals' self-control while increasing hostility, resulting in increased workplace deviance. We test our hypotheses using two samples: one comprised of nurses from a large medical center and another comp...

摘要：On the basis of a qualitative, induction-driven study of six cases, we developed a process model of how former members of defunct organizations found new organizations to sustain valued elements of organizational life. Our model suggests that this process unfolds through four periods of organizing: disintegration, demise, gestation, and rebirth. The model identifies the affective, behavioral, and cognitive dynamics that give rise to movement through this process. Each of the periods that compr...

摘要：We argue that different types of perceived managerial controls that convey performance standards to subordinates increase the perceived relevance of particular aspects of fairness in organizations. We introduce the concept of fairness monitoring to characterize subordinates' efforts to gather and process fairness information to make sense of their organizations. In scenario and survey studies, we found that subordinates who perceive market controls engage in distributive fairness monitoring, s...
