摘要：This study reexamined the critical relationship between performance and voluntary turnover. A meta-analysis based on 55 studies and a total sample size of 15,138 supported these conclusions: the negative relationship between performance and turnover is robust and unaffected by unemployment rates and the length of time between measurements of the two variables. The negative performance-turnover relationship was stronger in organizations using performance-contingent rewards, and support was foun...

摘要：Interview-based measures of ''type A'' behavior and psychological and task-person indexes of job complexity were obtained from 251 police and fire department employees with sound cardiovascular health. Follow-up data on cardiovascular disorder were collected seven years later from participants who had remained with their organizations. The type A behavior pattern predicted cardiovascular disorder over time, and the relationships between the two complexity indexes and cardiovascular morbidity w...

摘要：Two failed congressional attempts to control escalating health costs are examined. The data show that investors apparently anticipated their failure. With the implementation of a policy encouraging market competition, however, investors expected larger firms to benefit and firms with previously high profit growth rates to lose. From the viewpoint of the politics of structural choice, it appears that identifiable structural flaws were deliberately designed into both laws in ways that would prom...

摘要：Three studies respectively explored the interactive effects of procedural justice and outcome negativity on the victims of job layoffs, on survivors, and on lame ducks, employees who knew they would soon be laid off. Consistent results emerged for all three types. When procedural justice was perceived to be low, individuals reacted more adversely to the extent that outcomes were perceived to be negative. When individuals felt that procedural justice was relatively high, however, perceived outc...

摘要：Organizational scholars are increasingly conceptualizing organizational responsiveness to institutional pressures as a strategic choice. This research identified a number of important institutional and technical determinants of this critical strategic choice. In particular, five factors that reflect the underlying nature of institutional pressures-cause, constituents, content, control, and context-were considered as forces motivating strategic responsiveness to institutional pressures. These i...

摘要：A heterogeneous group of 371 men and 361 women provided questionnaire data on 23 job reaction and 24 dispositional variables. Analyses revealed 18 significant differences reflecting traditional gender stereotypes. However, almost all the differences disappeared when sex-related differences in perceived job characteristics, age and tenure, level of education, income, and occupational level were controlled. Results are discussed in the context of the small effect sizes typical of sex-of-subject ...

摘要：This justice-theory-based study of punishment surveyed supervisors and their disciplined subordinates about specific punishment events. Path analysis results suggested that two personality traits-belief in a just world and negative affectivity-were associated with the subordinates' perceptions of the events. Perceived harshness, a distributive characteristic of the events, was associated with the supervisors' perceptions of the subordinates' subsequent performance. Subordinate control, a proce...

摘要：This study investigated the association of organizational characteristics with the percentage of management positions held by women in a group of medium-sized to large private sector workplaces. Results support hypotheses derived from resource dependence and institutional theories and illustrate that characteristics of organizations predict a substantial portion of the variation in the percentage of management positions filled by women across industries. Effects differ for organizations in man...

摘要：This research examined the measurement properties of the Miles and Snow perceived environmental uncertainty scale. Results supported the internal consistency of the scale; however, stability as measured by test-retest correlations was inadequate. The scale did not correlate with criterion measures of firm diversification. Implications for measurement of the perceived environmental uncertainty construct are discussed.
