摘要：We tested the job demands-job control model of stress with a group of 136 registered nurses. Significant interactions between subjective and objective measures of work load and a measure of perceived control predicting physiological and attitudinal outcomes indicated support for the model. In addition, objectively assessed job demands were significantly associated with blood pressure and cortisol levels. The model also predicted elevations in physiological responses after individuals left work...

摘要：Prior studies have suggested that ''sunk costs,'' the amount of money already invested in a project, influence resource allocation decisions but have often confounded sunk costs with the degree to which a project is completed. To address this issue, we varied information about both sunk costs and project completion in two experiments. Our results suggest that degree of project completion may dominate any sunk cost effects that are present in resource allocation decisions.

摘要：Aspects of corporate image, or the image associated with the name of an organization, and recruitment image-the image associated with its recruitment message-were studied. Data collected from five student groups indicate that the image of an organization is related to the information available about it. Additional results are that different external groups only moderately agree on ratings of corporate image, potential applicants have different corporate and recruitment images of the same organ...

摘要：The associations between interviewer and applicant behavior during simulated employment interviews were examined in a laboratory experiment. As hypothesized, applicant self-esteem, interviewer behavior, and their interaction significantly affected applicants' verbal and nonverbal behavior during interviews, as rated by independent judges.

摘要：From one theoretical perspective, exchange, dissimilar organizations link together because they must acquire needed resources from each other. From another perspective, homophily, similar organizations link together to cooperate. We examined predictions based on both perspectives concerning the effects of generalism and niche overlap on interorganizational linkages among 46 youth service agencies. Generalism and niche overlap were measured for clients, services, and funding. The results suppor...

摘要：The extent of people's cultural beliefs of individualism or collectivism has been used to predict the effectiveness of many management practices. A key aspect of those characteristics is the relation of individualists and collectivists to members of their ingroup and outgroups. This study examined the implications of group membership for individuals' performance in a group setting through an experiment using Chinese, Israeli, and American subjects. The performance of individualists who thought...

摘要：This study investigated investors' reactions to announcements of the firings of key executives made over the 25-year period 1963-1987. We found announcements containing information about permanent replacements to be associated with positive market reactions, whereas other types of firing announcements resulted in no market response. In addition, outsider appointments were perceived as beneficial immediately, while insider appointments elicited a wait-and-see reaction.

摘要：Behavioral plasticity theory is offered as an explanation for the moderating effects of self-esteem on role perception-employee response relationships. According to this theory, because individuals with low self-esteem are more reactive than their counterparts with high self-esteem, they are more susceptible to adverse role conditions, such as role conflict, ambiguity, and overload, and a poor work environment and poor supervisory support. Moderated hierarchical regression analyses revealed si...

摘要：This study investigated the strategic ''sensemaking'' processes of scanning, interpretation, and action and how those activities are linked to organizational performance. Using path analyses on data from 156 hospitals, we tested the direct and indirect effects among these sensemaking processes and performance outcomes and developed a model of their relationships. In a more general sense, the research represents an attempt to provide insight not only into relationships between cognition and act...
