摘要：To explore if, when, and how intentionally corporate officers conceal negative organizational outcomes from shareholders, we used computer-assisted content analysis of over 1,000 president's letters contained in annual reports to shareholders. Results suggest that outside directors, large institutional investors, and accountants limit such concealment, but small institutional investors and outside directors who are shareholders prompt it. Low disclosure is associated with subsequent selling of...

摘要：The effects of sex and gender role on self- and group perceptions of leader emergence were examined. Though women were slightly more likely to emerge as leaders than men, gender role had a stronger effect on emergent leadership than sex. Specifically, androgynous and masculine subjects were the most likely to emerge as leaders.

摘要：We investigated changes in the influence of 40 publications relevant to the field of management between 1981 and 1986 and between 1986 and 1991 using Salancik's index of influence in a dependency network. Although the influence of many of the top journals stayed relatively stable over the decade, some notable changes occurred. The publications with the greatest increases in influence were the Academy of Management Review, the Academy of Management Journal, Strategic Management Journal, and Res...

摘要：This study investigated the influence of managerial and organizational factors on the extent to which top executives accurately perceive environmental instability and environmental munificence. Environmental scanning and centralization affected perceptions of instability; work history diversity, team tenure, and environmental scanning affected perceptions of munificence. Implications are discussed and ideas about future research avenues are presented.

摘要：The punctuated equilibrium model of organizational transformation has emerged as a prominent theoretical framework for explaining fundamental changes in patterns of organizational activity. To date, however, few aspects of the model have been tested formally. We tested three basic arguments of the model using data on U.S. minicomputer producers. Supportive results showed that (1) a large majority of organizational transformations were accomplished via rapid and discontinuous change over most o...

摘要：This study tested links between vertical integration, cost structure, and performance at the line-of-business level of analysis. Major findings were (1) Vertical integration results in economies even after industry effects and economies of scope and scale are controlled. Vertically integrated lines of business economized on general and administrative, other selling, advertising, and R&D expenditures but had higher production costs and thus only marginally better profitability than nonintegrate...

摘要：This study's premise is that ingratiation and organizational citizenship behaviors are similar but that supervisors will respond differently to employees depending on whether they label their extrarole behaviors as ingratiation or as organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Variables based on Kelley's covariation model did not greatly influence supervisory attributions. The attribution of motive, however, was related to supervisory decisions on employee outcomes.

摘要：Theorists suggest that integrated manufacturing requires a compensation strategy that reinforces collective effort, professionalism, and flexibility. But several aspects of job design and organizational characteristics may mitigate a direct manufacturing-compensation relationship. Results of this study show virtually no direct effects of advanced technology, just-in-time inventory control, and total quality management on compensation practices. However, when integrated manufacturing is coupled...

摘要：Both inadequate governance and inappropriate strategy have been proposed as antecedents of the divestment activity of restructuring firms in the 1980s. We combined both views in a structural equation model in which divestment intensity is directly related to firm performance and strategy, which are in turn preceded by weak governance. Some supportive results indicate that blockholder equity, a governance antecedent, and relative product diversification (strategy) have important indirect effect...
