摘要:This study investigates the unintended effects of legal changes in shareholder litigation on employee injuries, revealing substantial consequences for employee welfare when restrictions are placed on shareholder litigation. Using a quasi-natural experiment involving the adoption of universal demand laws, we found that this reform, aimed at improving operational efficiency, is associated with a 28% increase in workplace injuries. This increase coincided with a marked surge in managerial focus o...

摘要:Women continue to be underrepresented in numerous occupations and in the highest echelons of many organizations. This may be due, in part, to disadvantages they face in referral-based hiring and promotion processes, as women are less inclined to ask for referrals and less likely to be referred than men for male-dominated jobs. We integrate insights from the goal-setting and creativity literatures to propose an intervention to boost referrals of women: requesting a greater target number of refe...

摘要:Existing research implicitly assumes that disclosing one's positive events-known as capitalization-is socially valuable in the workplace because such events are work-related and therefore relevant to coworkers and organizational goals. Indeed, management research has focused on how disclosers of positive work events and their coworkers feel about themselves. Broadening the focus of workplace capitalization to disclosure of positive nonwork events, which we refer to as nonwork-work interpersona...

摘要:Research on upper echelons theory often portrays founders as stewards who act in their organizations' best interests, requiring less oversight than hired executives. We challenge this view by examining a potential dark side of founder leadership: leader-directed unethical pro-organizational behavior, in which founders direct subordinates to engage in unethical actions to benefit the firm. Integrating social identity theory with social cognitive theory, we shed light on both when and why founde...

摘要:The ability to perceive emotion is traditionally associated with desirable work outcomes. In the present study, we challenge this assumption by examining whether all emotion perception abilities are created equal. Although the ability to perceive positive emotion may be a blessing because it allows one to see positive emotions in one's environment, the empathic accuracy model suggests that the ability to perceive negative emotion may be a curse because it allows one to see negative emotions in...

摘要:In contrast to prior research demonstrating that blue light filtering glasses worn at night improve employee sleep and work outcomes, we build from circadian theory to examine whether morning blue light exposure may provide complementary benefits. A within-person field experiment prompted 182 full-time employees to wear blue light emitting glasses for 30 min each morning over two work weeks. Participants were randomly assigned to a treatment-first or control-first condition, with glasses progr...

摘要:Authenticity has been promoted for millennia; the modern workplace is no exception. Organizations, too, may espouse an authenticity ideology-encouraging employees to be themselves to achieve success. The espousal of such an ideology might be intended to signal identity safety, particularly to stigmatized job seekers. Instead, however, we propose that an espoused authenticity ideology may ironically frustrate and repel those who experience the most stigma. Across six experiments, we find that s...

摘要:Performance-based pay is a feature of many modern compensation systems, especially given its enhancing effects for performance and motivation. Despite these benefits, there is also mounting evidence that performance-based pay has costs to employee well-being. To help explain these contrasting effects, we isolate the unique impact of pay uncertainty as a factor common in performance-based pay. Integrating restricted employee sustainability theory (Barnes et al., 2023) with scarcity theory (Mull...

摘要:For reducing adverse impact, the diversity-validity tradeoff curve approach (De Corte et al., 2007) provides sets of selection predictor weights that can often substantially enhance diversity (i.e., increase adverse impact ratio and number of minority job offers), with no loss of job performance in comparison to unit weights (Wee et al., 2014). A key limitation of this diversity-enhancing approach is the tendency for tradeoff curves to shrink, leading to lesser job performance and diversity ou...

摘要:The present study examined how several career shocks experienced by students in the health care fields during the COVID-19 pandemic shaped their subsequent occupational calling. Drawing on social information processing theory, we posit that the perceived impact of career shocks is positively related to an improvement in the perceptions of occupational characteristics (i.e., perceived task significance and social worth) and resultant improvement in psychological states (i.e., meaningful work an...
