摘要：A multitheoretical approach was used to explore why organizations vary in the degree to which they have adopted policies designed to help employees manage their work and family lives. Our findings indicated that: (1) significant differences existed across industries in work-family responsiveness; (2) the percentage of women employed by a company did not explain unique variance in responsiveness; and (3) organizations were more likely to offer benefits when work and family issues were salient t...

摘要：A comparative analysis of professionals' use of individual self-managing activities In functional and cross-functional units found that individual self-management was beneficial for effectiveness in functional units but not in cross-functional units. The study also explored the effects of interactions of individual self-management and unit type (functional or cross-functional) on team members' overall levels of job satisfaction and perceptions of bureaucratic obstacles. Results suggest a need ...

摘要：This study brings a fresh approach-a learning perspective-to the literature examining whether firms expand internationally through start-ups or acquisitions. Hypotheses concern how this strategic choice is influenced by a firm's multinational diversity and product diversity. The results show that multinational diversity leads to foreign start-ups rather than acquisitions. Produce diversity has a curvilinear effect on the tendency to use start-ups. The curvilinear effect becomes weaker at highe...

摘要：We tested hypotheses concerning the effectiveness of three strategies for breaking conflict spirals in negotiations. We also investigated the relationship between out comes and the relative frequency of reciprocated contentious communications. Results confirmed the hypotheses, showing that extreme distributive outcomes are related to the relative frequency of reciprocated contentious communications and that conflict spirals can be stopped by various communication strategies. Theoretical and pr...

摘要：This study extends previous research on the multilevel theory of team decision making and shows that team-level decision-making accuracy is affected by factors originating at lower levels of analysis. The results from 380 individuals arrayed into 95 four-person teams working on a simulated naval command and control task indicated that the constructs specified by this theory accounted for over half of the variance in team performance and that teams given feedback on those constructs performed b...

摘要：A social network perspective was used to. determine whom brokerage firm employees selected as social referents. In particular, this study focused on cohesive actors (friends) and structurally equivalent actors (individuals occupying the same position in a network) as sources of social information. Results on the social networks of brokers, sales assistants, and operations employees (support staff) indicate distinct differences in interaction patterns, information seeking, and social comparison...

摘要：We examined the impact of surface-level (demographic) and deep-level (attitudinal) diversity on group social integration. As hypothesized, the length of time group members worked together weakened the effects of surface-level diversity and strengthened the effects of deep-level diversity as group members had the opportunity to engage in meaningful interactions.

摘要：This study introduces a theory-based measure of employee performance, the Role Based Performance Scale (RBPS), that is supported with results from a validation study using ten data sets from six companies. In contrast to traditional, job-related measures of employee performance, this proposed alternative measure of performance is based on role theory and identity theory. Because our results support the validity of the scale, we think that the instrument can be used for future research that req...

摘要：This cross-level field study, involving 187 employees from 35 groups in 20 organizations, examined how individuals' antisocial behaviors at work are shaped by the antisocial behavior of their coworkers. We found a positive relationship between the level of antisocial behavior exhibited by an individual and that exhibited by his or her coworkers. We also found that a number of factors moderated this relationship. Finally, we found that dissatisfaction with coworkers was higher when individuals ...
