摘要:Interview-based measures of ''type A'' behavior and psychological and task-person indexes of job complexity were obtained from 251 police and fire department employees with sound cardiovascular health. Follow-up data on cardiovascular disorder were collected seven years later from participants who had remained with their organizations. The type A behavior pattern predicted cardiovascular disorder over time, and the relationships between the two complexity indexes and cardiovascular morbidity w...

摘要:A study of 98 R&D project groups using a longitudinal design found support far the contingency theory hypothesis that the fit between a task technology's nonroutineness and information-processing needs will predict project performance. The hypothesis was supported for concurrent and one-year-later management ratings of project quality, using absolute difference scores as a measure of fit. The fit between a technology's unanalyzability and information processing, however, was not a predictor of...

摘要:A survey of 317 clerical workers demonstrated that employees differed in what they defined as in-role and extra-role behavior, that these differences were related to commitment and social cues, and that employees were more likely to display organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) if they defined the behavior as in-role father than extra-role. Results indicate that the boundary between in-role and extra-role behavior is not clearly defined and that OCB is a function of how broadly employees d...

摘要:Several unsettled issues related to the day-to-day experience of work and family roles were investigated through the daily reports of 41 employed parents. Multiple role juggling, task demands, personal control, and goal progress affected mood in work and family roles. Unpleasant moods spilled over from work to family and vice versa, but pleasant moods had little spillover. Mood states, role juggling, and daily levels of role involvement predicted end-of-day ratings of work-family conflict. In ...

摘要:From authors' responses to open-ended questions, this theory-building study developed a framework to explain conflict over credit for joint research. Regression analysis of quantitative items provided evidence for the influence of motives and power on attitudes toward the value of author tasks and the criteria for ordering names in publications. The resulting model identifies four collaborative approaches and the sources of conflict appearing in each.

摘要:Theorists debate whether organizations are inertial or adaptable, but mounting evidence shows they are both, provoking questions about how shifts occur between inertia and change. Research shows performance crises can trigger reactive change, but proactive revolutions in organizations are poorly understood. In project groups, temporal pacing triggers proactive change. This longitudinal study of a venture capital-backed start-up company explored whether temporal pacing could regulate momentum a...

摘要:We investigated changes in the influence of 40 publications relevant to the field of management between 1981 and 1986 and between 1986 and 1991 using Salancik's index of influence in a dependency network. Although the influence of many of the top journals stayed relatively stable over the decade, some notable changes occurred. The publications with the greatest increases in influence were the Academy of Management Review, the Academy of Management Journal, Strategic Management Journal, and Res...

摘要:In this study, we hypothesize that institutions invest more heavily in companies with strong corporate social performance. Analysis indicated a significant, positive relationship between social performance and the number of institutions holding the shares of a company and a positive but insignificant relationship between social performance and the percentage of shares held by institutions. We conclude that improving a company's corporate social performance invokes no penalty in institutional o...

摘要:This study examined the interactive influence of performance, the quality of a supervisor-subordinate relationship, and the duration of that relationship on performance ratings. The results suggest that, in both the short run and long run, the performance of employees in high-quality ''leader-member exchange'' relationships is rated high, regardless of their objectively measured performance. The ratings of employees in low-quality exchange relationships are consistent with their objective perf...

摘要:This study investigated the influence of managerial and organizational factors on the extent to which top executives accurately perceive environmental instability and environmental munificence. Environmental scanning and centralization affected perceptions of instability; work history diversity, team tenure, and environmental scanning affected perceptions of munificence. Implications are discussed and ideas about future research avenues are presented.
