摘要：Social and demographic changes represent an important environmental challenge to organizations. Recent demographic changes in the United States have increased the potential importance of ''eldercare'' benefits in the workplace. In this research, I elaborate a number of important organizational and environmental determinants that influence the recognition and interpretation of eldercare issues and relate these considerations to the level of employer involvement in the care of elderly dependents...

摘要：The subjective experience of workplace health and safety risk among exposed individuals is little understood. Health and safety risks are associated with multifaceted subjective interpretations different from those associated with other elements of the work environment and more directly influential on work attitudes and behavior than actual risk. This article conceptually and operationally defines these interpretations and evidences the influence of chronic risk exposure on job satisfaction, s...

摘要：This study analyzes the compensation strategy of firms. We examined differences in the pay and incentives of lower-level managers in firms with different levels of management discretion. We found that firms with higher managerial discretion paid compensation premiums through higher salaries, greater bonuses, and more long-term incentives; however, changes in pay were not related to changes in performance, and high-discretion firms did not perform better than other types of firms.

摘要：The reported research examined the usefulness of placing risk propensity and risk perception in a more central role in models of risky decision making than has been done previously, Specifically, this article reports on two studies that examined a model in which risk propensity and risk perception mediate the effects of problem framing and outcome history on risky decision-making behavior, Implications of the pattern of results for future research are discussed.

摘要：A model incorporating antecedents and outcomes of measures of manager-rated employee affective and continuance commitment was tested with 231 managers and 339 subordinates. Organizational citizenship behavior predicted manager-rated affective commitment, whereas side bets (age, tenure, and education) predicted manager-rated continuance commitment. Further, affective commitment was positively and continuance commitment negatively related to a variety of outcomes, including managerial potential ...

摘要：Recent media choice research has focused on attempts to determine what theory best explains people's choices of communication media. Two within-subject policy-capturing studies support the notion that media richness and social influence theories are complementary rather than competing and that the relative importance of choice factors depends on the medium. A comparison of policy-capturing and survey findings points to policy capturing as a useful research methodology. Results also suggest tha...

摘要：Little is known about the degree to which unions protect women against gender-based wage and promotion discrimination, Data were collected for scientists and professionals in two matched firms, one unionized, one not. Similar overall patterns of discrimination emerged, with gender having no less of an impact on earnings and promotion in the unionized firm than in the nonunion firm. However, our results suggest that women in the unionized firm might have been less exposed to the negative earnin...

摘要：The ability of three different types of self-report variables-biographical, attitudinal, and stress-to predict 70 months of absenteeism data was evaluated. Absence scores were aggregated in two different ways, as annualized segments and as longitudinal data cumulations. Biographical variables and attitudinal measures significantly predicted long-term absenteeism. In addition, results suggested that dependency relationships between absence metrics and cumulation periods may affect validational ...

摘要：In this study, we proposed that union members would be more similar in their attitudes toward bargaining-related outcomes during contract negotiation years than union members at other stages of the bargaining cycle. Teachers surveyed during the year of their school districts' contract negotiations were more homogeneous in attitudes toward pay, benefits, and school administration than teachers surveyed one year before or after bargaining. Implications for management and union officials interest...

摘要：This study reviews how repeated measures analysis has been applied and discusses alternative approaches for that type of analysis. A content analysis of 86 repeated measures studies showed a lack of (1) control for violations in data assumptions, (2) tests of characteristics of differences in measurement means, and (3) full tests of multivariate models. Further, an analysis of diversification and performance in 40 firms showed that empirical results and theory development can vary according to...
