摘要:The Minnesota Importance Questionnaire (MIQ), measuring work values, was administered to 23 monozygotic and 20 dizygotic reared-apart twin pairs to test the hypothesis that genetic factors are associated with work values. Both univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. In the univariate analysis, intraclass correlations were computed to estimate the proportion of variability in work values associated with genetic factors for each of the 20 MIQ scales and for the 6 higher order work v...

摘要:This article reviews the development of industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology in the United States since its beginnings at about the turn of the century. The history is divided into periods, within which are described topics, roles, and forces, with the goal of explaining as well as describing developments. Among the conclusions are that I-O psychology is a dynamic field that has been making contributions both to the science of behavior and to industrial society and that those contributio...

摘要:A comprehensive model of the work-family interface was developed and tested. The proposed model extended prior research by explicitly distinguishing between work interfering with family and family interfering with work. This distinction allowed testing of hypotheses concerning the unique antecedents and outcomes of both forms of work-family conflict and reciprocal relationship between them. The influences of gender, race, and job type on the generalizability of the model was also examined. Dat...

摘要:We used hierarchical confirmatory factor analysis to test alternative latent structures underlying performance in multiple dimensions as measured by work samples and three rating sources. The model receiving strongest support was one that specified multidimensional trait (performance dimension) and measurement method second-order factors (SOFs). This model exhibited significant convergent and discriminant validity, showed significant measurement method effects, and indicated that different mea...

摘要:Utility analysis suggests that human resources policies can have an economically significant im-pact on business organizations. Confidence in such conclusions, however, requires an accurate estimate of SD(y). This article provides a validity check on prevailing subjective methods of SD(y) estimation by directly estimating SD(y) from unique field data. Using both simulated and field data, we first illustrate the range of potential bias associated with predictor unreliability in regression analy...

摘要:This study examined the equivalence of constructs underlying scores on tests designed to measure the knowledge, skills, and abilities required by specific jobs with the constructs underlying scores on aptitude tests taken from published test batteries. Several models of construct equivalence, differing in their assumptions about factor patterns, factor loadings, and variable uniquenesses, were assessed with confirmatory factor analysis. Results indicated that the job-specific tests measured co...

摘要:A construct validation approach was followed to affirm that 8 physical ability test events were significantly related to two important constructs underlying the job performance of police officers: strength and endurance. A sample of 115 incumbent police officers took 8 physical ability tests and were rated by supervisors on their physical performances in their job. LISREL methods were used to test the model specified, and a reasonable fit was achieved. Portions of the model were tested on an i...

摘要:A primary objective of validity generalization (VG) analysis is to decompose the between-situation variance in validities into (a) variance attributable to between-situation differences in statistical artifacts and (b) variance attributable to between-situation differences in (unidentified) situational moderators. This process is based on the assumption that the effects of statistical artifacts on validities are independent of the effects of situational moderators on validities. The present ar...

摘要:Subliminal self-help audiotapes to aid weight loss were evaluated to determine if their apparent effectiveness is due to a placebo effect. All subjects were female students or staff who were both overweight and believed in the possible effectiveness of subliminal audiotapes. Three different groups of subjects were tested: One group listened to subliminal audiotapes purchased directly from a manufacturer, the 2nd group listened to comparable placebo tapes, and the 3rd group did not listen to an...
