摘要：Interview data from China are used to test an argument that executives develop personal connections in societies with underdeveloped legal support for private businesses. In China, such connections are called guanxi. An underdeveloped legal framework makes private-company executives more dependent on guanxi than executives in state-owned or collective-hybrid companies. Compared to the other executives, private-company executives considered business connections more important, depended more on ...

摘要：The relationship between college placement interviews and subsequent employment decisions by organizations and applicants has received scant research attention. In a longitudinal held study, we found that applicants' job choices were related to their postinterview intentions. However, organizations' job offer decisions were not related to recruiters' postinterview intentions or to their perceptions of applicants' intentions. The results offered general support for the applicability of the theo...

摘要：Variability in employment levels, particularly when resulting from downsizing and layoffs, has considerable consequences for employees and organizations. Applying strategic compensation and agency theory principles to multiple years of employment, financial performance, and managerial compensation data on 152 organizations, we found that compensation design was related to employment variability through two avenues. First, organizations relying more heavily on long-term compensation incentives ...

摘要：This longitudinal study examines the development of leader-member-exchange (LMX) relationships via a model that extends and tests ideas presented but not yet fully tested in past theoretical models. New subordinates (n=205) and their supervisors (n=112) provided data that were used to test hypotheses stating that dyadic gender and personality similarity, member performance, and leader delegation would be incrementally and cumulatively related to LhlX development. Support was found for relation...

摘要：We employed a qualitative interview technique to develop an inductive model of punishment from a managerial perspective. Findings suggest that managers feel pressure from a variety of sources-organizations, work groups, punished subordinates, and themselves. Managers are also aware that punishment is a highly charged cognitive and emotional event with broad and far-reaching effects that range well beyond punished subordinates and simply changing their attitudes and behaviors.

摘要：A study of 1,200 employees from five Chinese cities found support for the cross-cultural applicability of Karasek's job demands-decision latitude model. The highest anxiety and depression were related to high job demands and low control, and the highest jab satisfaction and life satisfaction were related to high job demands and high control. However, there were individual differences in the interactive effects of job demands and control and group differences in the applicability of the model, ...

摘要：This study investigates the proposition that Japanese companies have a greater propensity than U.S. companies to sustain commitment to R&D in the face of fluctuating profits and liquidity. The analysis showed that profitability declines led to increased R&D intensity in Japan. These effects were not confined to members of Japanese financial keiretsu, or industrial groups. The R&D intensity of U.S. companies fluctuated directly with two-year lagged profitability and liquidity variables, but the...

摘要：This study explored the effects of social capital, measured both absolutely and relatively, on CEO-compensation in a sample of 61 CEOcompensation committee chairperson dyads. We controlled for variables representing economic, social comparison, and other social influence explanations for CEO compensation. Social similarity did not influence pay, but a chair's absolute social capital and a CEO's social capital relative to his or her chair's significantly increased CEO compensation. The potentia...

摘要：Corporate entrepreneurship is important for organizational survival, profitability, growth, and renewal, Data ham 127 Fortune 500 companies show that executive stock ownership and long-term institutional ownership are positively associated with such entrepreneurship. Conversely, short-term institutional ownership is negatively associated with it, as is a high ratio of outside directors on a company's board. Outside directors' stack ownership somewhat mitigates the latter negative association. ...

We used a two-by-three-by-four design in which sample, goal, and test condition were varied to test hypotheses. Group performance lass occurred only for urban respondents wi...
