摘要:An interactive model of social undermining and social support in the workplace was developed and tested among police officers in the Republic of Slovenia. As predicted, social undermining was significantly associated with employee outcomes, in most cases more strongly than was social support. High levels of undermining and support from the same source were associated with negative outcomes. However, support from one source appeared to only modestly attenuate the negative effects of social unde...

摘要:We examined the effect of work group processes (charismatic leadership and communication-cooperation) on the evolution of group potency among newly formed work groups. Results showed that these processes affected changes in group potency over time, that initial performance mediated these effects, and that group potency was related to subsequent group satisfaction, group effort, and group performance. Group potency also mediated the relationships between work group processes and group effort an...

摘要:We propose a network effects model of charisma that specifies the distribution and change of charisma attributions among individuals connected in a social structure. Data from a police organization and a classroom setting were analyzed using social network methods. The results show that social network parameters are significantly associated with the distribution and dispersion of attributions of charisma. Results are discussed in terms of their theoretical significance for understanding the so...

摘要:Managers from 24 geopolitical entities provided data on work locus of control, job satisfaction, psychological strain, physical strain, and individualism/collectivism. The hypothesis that the salutary effects of perceived control on well-being are universal was supported because relations of work locus of control with well-being at work were similar in almost all the sampled areas. Furthermore, the individualism/collectivism level of each sample did not moderate the magnitude of correlations o...

摘要:In this study, we examined the moderating effects of individual differences and sources of support on the negative relationship between work-family conflict and career satisfaction. Data from 975 managers indicated that the relationship was significant for women irrespective of age but was significant for men only in later career. Moreover, the relationship was stronger for individuals who were in the minority gender in their work groups, but it was weaker for those who had strong community ti...

摘要:Firms' increasing use of external labor arrangements has been difficult to reconcile with resource-based propositions concerning the development of organizational capabilities. We tested hypotheses drawn from the transaction costs perspective to predict which jobs firms would fill through external arrangements rather than through traditional employment relationships. The findings may help to explain the apparent paradox between the increasing externalization of workers and their use as a sourc...

摘要:The performance of 94 groups on 13 different open-ended tasks was studied. At the individual-team-member level, domain knowledge and performance-relevant behavioral measures of the three components of Amabile's (1983, 1996) theory of individual creativity related in predicted ways to individual differences. Support was found for new cross-level processes, labeled team creativity-relevant processes. At the group level, these processes moderated the relationship between aggregated individual cre...

摘要:In industries characterized by network externalities, a single technology standard often rises to dominance, locking out competing technologies. This research demonstrates that despite path dependency, it is possible to model the technology selection process and predict likely outcomes. This work extends previous work in network externalities by demonstrating that in addition to its installed base and the availability of complementary goods, a firm's learning orientation and timing of entry al...

摘要:Examining commercial lending decisions, we found that increased monitoring of decision makers and changing decision makers attenuated escalation of commitment but also produced unintended effects. Some decision makers resisted downgrading the risk of borrowers in the face of organizational intervention, exhibiting intervention avoidance, and escalated commitment to these borrowers. Combined findings indicate organizations need to carefully address both the intended and potential unintended con...

摘要:This study of 157 users of new technologies implemented in manufacturing demonstrates complex relationships between technology characteristics, users' learning activities, and implementation outcomes. Technology characteristics affected both implementation outcomes and users' learning activities. On balance, technology characteristics explained more variance in user speed to competence and the quality of learning activities explained more variance in user satisfaction. Technology and learning ...
