摘要：In this study, we proposed that union members would be more similar in their attitudes toward bargaining-related outcomes during contract negotiation years than union members at other stages of the bargaining cycle. Teachers surveyed during the year of their school districts' contract negotiations were more homogeneous in attitudes toward pay, benefits, and school administration than teachers surveyed one year before or after bargaining. Implications for management and union officials interest...

Results suggest that sex roles are more stereotypical and more problematic in firms with relatively low proportions of senior women, This research also found that women responded to these constraints in a range of ways and identifies five response profil...

摘要：Using computer-aided content analysis, we assessed the strength of nine values-authority performance, reward, normative, commitment, participation, leadership, teamwork, and affiliation-in 88 large Australian organizations. Cluster analysis was used to categorize each organization as having one of four value structures: elite, leadership, meritocratic, or collegial. Organizations classified as having different value structures differed in a theoretically consistent way in how their members des...

摘要：This study reviews how repeated measures analysis has been applied and discusses alternative approaches for that type of analysis. A content analysis of 86 repeated measures studies showed a lack of (1) control for violations in data assumptions, (2) tests of characteristics of differences in measurement means, and (3) full tests of multivariate models. Further, an analysis of diversification and performance in 40 firms showed that empirical results and theory development can vary according to...

摘要：This study examined the relationship between four strategies for managerial responses to the discrepant expectations of constituents and managerial effectiveness as perceived by superiors, subordinates, and peers. Results based on two samples including 410 managers, 452 superiors, 1,096 subordinates, and 1,071 peers consistently suggested that exerting extra effort and explaining decisions are positively associated with effectiveness perceptions. Attempts to change others' expectations and avo...

摘要：To investigate necessary conditions for the predictive Validity of strategic groups, we grouped firms from five industries, previously studied in strategic groups research, longitudinally by performance using a nonparametric technique; the groupings were confirmed with discriminant function analysis. Stability of performance group membership was examined by ordinal time series analysis and found to be lacking, casting doubt on the efficacy of mobility barriers and hence on the predictive valid...

摘要：This field study investigated the importance of simplicity as a strategy-making process. Consistent with our hypotheses, use of a simplistic strategy-making process was found to be positively associated with performance during early stages of organizational development but detrimental to performance as organizations grew and matured. Simplicity was also found to be negatively related to performance in dynamic environments; in heterogeneous environments, it seemed to be adversely related to per...

Thus, what executives perceive is of interest to organizational scientists, to strategic management researchers, and to organizational stakeholders. The results of the field study reported here indicate that, contrary to popular belief, functional area work experience has no effect on which changes top executives perceive in their organizations' environments, Funct...

摘要：This study examined whether female directors lack the necessary experience-based characteristics for board committee membership, or whether there is a systematic sex-based bias against them. We tested predictors of the odds of membership on certain board committees for male and female directors and found evidence of sex-based bias in Fortune 300 firms after controlling for directors' experience-based characteristics. Men were preferred for membership in compensation, executive, and finance com...

摘要：Using an empirical taxonomy identifying two types of human resource systems, ''control'' and ''commitment,'' this study tested the strategic human resource proposition that specific combinations of policies and practices are useful in predicting differences in performance and turnover across steel ''minimills.'' The mills with commitment systems had higher productivity, lower scrap rates, and lower employee turnover than those with control systems. In addition, human resource system moderated ...
