摘要：This research examined behavioral styles used by interviewers to confirm their first impressions of job applicants. Three interviewers in a corporate setting formed first impressions based on application blank and test score information. They then conducted autiotaped interviews. Coders independently coded 79 interviews and found that first impressions were related to confirmatory behavior. Interviews followed up positive first impressions, for example, by showing positive regard toward applic...

摘要：The escalation of commitment to a failing course of action is often attributed to self-justification motives that presumably are evoked by personal responsibility for initiating the original action (e.g., B. M. Staw, 1976). Nevertheless, personal responsibility-operationalized as choice-has been confounded with public justification, which might engender self-presentation concerns. The present laboratory experiment extended past research by examining the impact of choice on escalating commitmen...

摘要：One hundred and twenty police recruits (probationer constables) being trained at the Metropolitan Police Training Centre in Hendon, England, participated in 1 of 2 occupational simulations, either nonstressful. Twenty of the recruits in each condition were active participants in the event, whereas the other 40 were observers. Half of the recruits were interviewed after a delay of 1 week and again after 12 weeks. The others were interviewed only once after a period of 12 weeks. Stress decreased...

摘要：It is first argued that the across-octant conclusions that are usually drawn from F. E. Fiedler's (1967) contingency model of leadership may be problematic, because virtually all its tests have used only within-octant research designs. Across-octant comparisons were therefore made by analyzing data from 1,282 groups used in previous research. Using nonparametric and parametric meta-analytic procedures, the authors found that the drawing of across-octant conclusions was not supported. Further a...

摘要：In the past, researchers have reached contradictory conclusions about the ability of the Pay Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ) to measure dimensions of pay satisfaction. Using a more rigorous and extensive series of tests than has been the case with past research and using longitudinal data from 2 samples of workers, the present study supported the 4 dimensions suggested by H. G. Heneman and D. P. Schwab (1985). The 4-factor solution was supported at both Time 1 and Time 2, despite the fact tha...

摘要：The authors report the results of 2 studies conducted to measure the cognitive structures underlying perceived competitive relationships among retailing firms in a small city. Drawing from recent research on cognitive categorization, they first discuss the theoretical importance of studying subjective rivalry and then explain how categorization processes influence perceived competitive boundaries among firms. The results of Study 1 suggest that cognitive categories of firms are perceived to be...

摘要：Despite executives' important positions in organizations, their attitudes have not received much research attention. To remedy this deficiency, the authors tested a hypothesized model of executive attitudes involving job satisfaction, life satisfaction, job stress, and work-family conflict. Using data from a large, representative sample of male executives (because of the small number of female executives in the study, the analyses were confined to men), the authors obtained LISREL results indi...

摘要：The author examined configurality in expert and layperson multiattribute judgments in the domain of child abuse. Important differences were found in the configural rules used by the two groups. Laypersons were disjunctive in both assessing risk of abuse and recommending intervention, but their disjunctivity in recommending intervention may have been entirely mediated by prior risk judgments. Experts were less disjunctive in assessing risk and were conjunctive in recommending intervention. Thes...

摘要：Three experiments examined impression-management responses to the Reid Report Integrity Attitude Inventory. Subjects encouraged to score high on the honesty test attained higher scores than a control group, but no higher than a group of job applicants. Study 2 offered money for high scores, and provided information to use concernign the first, second, or both factors of the Reid Report. Subjects in the three information conditions scored higher than those in a control condition, but again were...

摘要：A theft was staged 70 times for pairs of eyewitnesses (N = 140) who then made a photo-lineup identification. Witnesses then received 1 of 9 types of information regarding the alleged identification decision of their co-witness. Witnesses told that their co-witness identified the same person whom they had identified showed an increase in the confidence they expressed to a confederate police officer. Confidence deflation occurred among witnesses who thought their co-witness either identified ano...
