摘要：This research begins to develop and validate a multidimensional measure of psychological empowerment in the workplace. Second-order confirmatory factor analyses were conducted with two complementary samples to demonstrate the convergent and discriminant validity of four dimensions of empowerment and their contributions to an overall construct of psychological empowerment. Structural equations modeling was used to examine a nomological net-work of psychological empowerment in the workplace. Tes...

摘要：The ability of three different types of self-report variables-biographical, attitudinal, and stress-to predict 70 months of absenteeism data was evaluated. Absence scores were aggregated in two different ways, as annualized segments and as longitudinal data cumulations. Biographical variables and attitudinal measures significantly predicted long-term absenteeism. In addition, results suggested that dependency relationships between absence metrics and cumulation periods may affect validational ...

摘要：It was hypothesized that group-level employee lateness assessed before administration of a survey would account for significant variance in post-survey individual lateness beyond that due to individual-level antecedents such as pre-survey lateness, work attitudes, and work-family conflict. The study samples were 285 bank tellers and 439 hospital employees. Results supported a group-level effect on individual lateness beyond controlled-for individual-level antecedents. Implications and limitati...

摘要：Previous studies of the market value impact of announcements of joint ventures have not considered industry effects. We suggest that the impact of such announcements varies with the information-processing load associated with analyzing events in the relevant industry, An event study analysis based on a stratified sample of 108 announcements in three industry groups, one with a light, one with a moder ate, and one with a heavy information-processing load, confirmed this hypothesis. We examine i...

摘要：The extent of role conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload reported by middle managers from 21 nations was related to national scores on power distance, individualism, uncertainty avoidance, and masculinity. We adapted earlier role stress scales and assessed equivalence using multigroup confirmatory factor analysis. Role stresses varied more by country than by personal and organizational characteristics. Data were aggregated to the national level. Power distance and collectivism were negat...

摘要：Researchers have suggested that environmental regulations may deter the entry of firms into industries, and their assertions imply that an advantage is thereby conferred on incumbent firms. Empirical analysis showed that environmental regulations inhibited new firm entry in a variety of manufacturing industries. Implications for affected firms and future research are discussed.

摘要：Four perspectives on the review processes of scientific journals were employed heuristically to examine the AMJ review process from 1984 through 1987. Results indicated modest support for hypotheses derived from accumulative advantage and particularism perspectives and more substantial support for hypotheses derived from gatekeeping and reviewer style perspectives. Testing a new perspective that combined predictors of gatekeeping and of coaching styles yielded the strongest results. In effect,...

摘要：This study examined the role of employee assessments of psychological and material factors in predicting the outcome of a contract ratification vote. The results show that both the material aspects of the contract settlement at hand and how members feel about their union and their jobs have an important impact on the ratification outcome.

摘要：Many studies have found that groups that interact by computer-mediated communication (CMC) technologies are less prone to domination by high-status members than are face-to face groups. We report here the results of three experiments designed to investigate participation and influence equality in mixed-status groups. Status differences persisted in both face-to-face and electronic groups. We suggest that status labels and impressions based on them have a larger impact on participation and infl...

摘要：Do formalized human resources management (HRM) structures promote goals of equal employment opportunity and affirmative action or symbolize good faith in the absence of real change? We examined the antecedents and outcomes of formalized HRM structures in over a hundred organizations, assessing the presence of ''identity-conscious'' and ''identity-blind'' HRM structures, Findings indicated that identity-conscious structures were associated with some positive indicators of the employment status ...
