Results indicate that network-we...

High self-monitors were more likely than low self-monitor...

Building on literature on professions, the study shows that how goods are traded, not only what is traded, proves integral to constructing legitimacy, th...

摘要:In this article, we develop and empirically test the theoretical argument that when an organizational culture promotes meritocracy (compared with when it does not), managers in that organization may ironically show greater bias in favor of men over equally performing women in translating employee performance evaluations into rewards and other key career outcomes; we call this the paradox of meritocracy. To assess this effect, we conducted three experiments with a total of 445 participants with...
