摘要:We investigated variation in how deadlines are experienced based on whether they match culturally entrained milestones. Consequences for task performance were also examined. We manipulated starting times on two experimental tasks as prototypical (e.g., 4:00 p.m.) or atypical (e.g., 4:07 p.m). In one experiment, each of 20 task groups was to create a television commercial in one hour. Groups' time pacing and performance varied significantly, and groups with prototypical starting times performed...

摘要:Integrating multiple theoretical perspectives, we differentiated international experience into current and past experience. In addition, we organized past international experience along two dimensions: domain (work/travel) and cultural specificity (U.S./non-U.S.). We examined the effects of expatriates' current assignment experience and past international experience on cross-cultural adjustment. The results indicate that past international experience moderates the relationship between current ...

摘要:This study tested a multilevel model of newcomer adaptation in teams using longitudinal and multisource data from 65 project teams. Results indicated that newcomer performance improved over time, particularly early in socialization. Initial newcomer empowerment, team expectations, and team performance differently predicted newcomer initial performance and performance improvement. In turn, newcomer initial performance and performance improvement uniquely related to subsequent team performance, ...

摘要:This study extends prior research on the chain of relationships among organizational justice, social exchange relationships, and employee reactions by investigating the proposed mediating role of psychological contract violations. Results obtained from a longitudinal design examining a sample of 191 employees provide strong support for the proposal, enhance support for chain directionality, validate theoretical predictions about determinants of contract violations, and provide initial evidence...

摘要:This study of 145 managers of a large biotechnology/agricultural company examined how leaders' emotion recognition ability and personality characteristics influenced performance of transformational leadership behavior. Emotion recognition, positive affectivity, and agreeableness positively predicted such behavior. In addition, extraversion moderated the relationship between emotion recognition and transformational leadership. We also provided construct validity evidence for transformational le...

摘要:We considered the role of strategic choice and institutional factors in influencing how managers have addressed workplace substance abuse. Substance abuse prevention program adoption was examined in a sample of 360 establishments. Normative pressure, reflected by changes in media discourse about substance abuse, was related to adoption of Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) and drug-testing programs. Institutional factors were relevant for adopters of EAPs, but strategic choice factors were mo...

摘要:This paper extends the theory of network effects by moving beyond the traditional treatment of the installed base of a technology as composed of N identical users, each having the same effect on the rest of the users. Borrowing from social network theory, I propose. the concept of strong-ties network effects as a key determinant of technology adoption in cases where several technologies compete. A discrete-choice model was tested in the wireless telecommunications industry.

摘要:Empirical findings from publicly traded firms and behavioral arguments suggest a positive influence of resource slack on financial performance. While this area has remained unexplored in privately held firms, conceptual arguments indicate that resource constraints may enhance performance. Longitudinal data on 900 privately held firms confirm the differing influences of forms of slack on performance. Results indicate that a combination of behavioral and resource constraints arguments are necess...
