摘要：Studies investigating the relationship between executive compensation and firm performance, firm size, or both have had consistently low explanatory power. The present study uses Forbes data for 1983-89 and shows that nonparametric models, comparing the ranks of firms within industries, more accurately reflect changes in CEO compensation. There was no support for a linear relationship between performance and such changes but strong support for an increasing, convex relationship.

摘要：This article presents the results of two experiments that investigated fairness and apparent fairness in ultimatum negotiations. Results suggest that offerers-those presenting offers-were bath strategic and exploitative: they made offers that appeared fair only when respondents (potential recipients) had full information about the amounts to be divided or when third parties labeled offers as to their fairness. In contrast, respondents ignored fairness claims but reacted to the sizes of offers ...

摘要：Relationships among levels of involvement between customers and suppliers, customers' evaluations of core and peripheral factors in their transactions, and customers' overall satisfaction were examined. Highly involved customers who were dissatisfied with core factors expressed greater overall dissatisfaction with the relationship than those less involved who also were dissatisfied with core factors. Peripheral aspects, such as supplier responsiveness to customer inquiries, appeared to influen...

摘要：Industries differ widely in how much managerial discretion, or latitude of action, they allow This research contributes to the reliable and valid measurement of this important but hard-to-measure construct. We found that (1) a panel of academics showed very high consistency in rating managerial discretion in diverse industries, (2) a panel of security analysts agreed strongly with the academics, and (3) the panel ratings were highly related to archival indicators of discretion posited by Hambr...

摘要：This study examined relationships among job scope, perceived fit between job demands and ability, and stress. Data on scope and stress were provided by 418 full-time employees. Ratings of job complexity from the Dictionary of Occupational Titles (DOT) and the Occupational Prestige Index (OF) also measured job scope. All three job scope measures had a U-shaped curvilinear relationship with emotional exhaustion. Anxiety had a negative association with incumbent-reported job scope but none with t...

摘要：We propose that the use of total quality management (TQM) practices will improve just-in-time (JIT) performance through process variance reduction and reduced rework time and that JIT practices will improve quality performance through problem exposure and improved process feedback. Using data on 42 plants in three U.S. industries, we found that common infrastructure practices formed a strong foundation for both types of performance; in addition, we demonstrated that TQM and JIT practices inter...

摘要：Cross-cultural international management research is complex, costly, and frequently, nonrigorous. This idiographic study documents the evolution of a multinational, multicultural, interdisciplinary research consortium that sought to remedy this lack of rigor in a project investigating international human resource management practices. We identify key learning points derived from this project and conclude with the rudiments of a midrange theory of a comparative management research methodology.

摘要：Whether and how organizations choose strategies that address pressures from both their exchange and the institutional environments has recently become a central question in organization theory. We used the National Organizations Study to replicate and extend Goodstein's application of Oliver's framework integrating resource dependence and institutional theories to explain organizational responsiveness to work-family issues. We found that organizations' responsiveness to work-family issues was ...

摘要：This research begins to develop and validate a multidimensional measure of psychological empowerment in the workplace. Second-order confirmatory factor analyses were conducted with two complementary samples to demonstrate the convergent and discriminant validity of four dimensions of empowerment and their contributions to an overall construct of psychological empowerment. Structural equations modeling was used to examine a nomological net-work of psychological empowerment in the workplace. Tes...

摘要：It was hypothesized that group-level employee lateness assessed before administration of a survey would account for significant variance in post-survey individual lateness beyond that due to individual-level antecedents such as pre-survey lateness, work attitudes, and work-family conflict. The study samples were 285 bank tellers and 439 hospital employees. Results supported a group-level effect on individual lateness beyond controlled-for individual-level antecedents. Implications and limitati...
