Chaos Organization and Disaster Management
Chaos Organization and Disaster Management offers a scholarly survey of disaster response behavior and management in the face of natural and manmade catastrophe. The author provides a methodological and empirical platform from which to initiate a critical analysis of disaster management. Sparked by a unique field study of the Israeli experience during the Gulf War, this book demonstrates the massive divide between individual responses to disaster…
Collective Spatial Perceptions of Men and Women Commuters
This paper attempts to explore an overlooked aspect of gender-based commuting by integrating women’s and men’s perceptions of labor markets (LMs) as a primary predictor of the commuting behavior of employees according to gender. Perceptions of labor markets (LMPs) are an innovative, exploratory term defining employees’ preferences of “where to work” by using spatial symbols and has been found to vary across the genders. The data of a representati…
Generic sources of disaster communities
This paper utilizes the generic source of “community” to define a disaster community emphasizing disaster areas’ perceived boundaries and the social networks that fall within these boundaries. Three such “disaster communities” are proposed based on family‐kin, micro‐neighborhood, and macro‐neighborhood social networks. Utilizing an Israel national representative sample of (814) urban households residing in 150 municipalities, a set of hypotheses …

Employee's turnover intentions and job destination choices
Employee's job destination choices, as part of the turnover process, reflect options for internal organizational or external labor market moves. A sample of 477 employees in 15 firms was used to decipher how bio‐demographic, job, plant, and labor market characteristics are related to five alternative job destinations. Multivariate logistic regression and odds–ratio analyses compared the five models confirming that different sets of variables infl…

"Underlying Labor Market Dimensions of "Opportunities
The underlying labor market and organizational source of alternative job opportunities is re-examined here and applied to investigate employee turnover behavior. We contend that by refining this concept in terms of perceived and objective opportunities and market reference points, a clearer appreciation of this concept and more powerful model of turnover will emerge. To this end, a cross-sectional and multistage longitudinal survey of 700 employe…

Gender and Turnover
Gender as a correlate of turnover has been inconclusive as a factor in understanding the development of a turnover decision. Yet, it is a decisive factor in the operation of key labor market processes which directly affect the entry and exit of labor to and from work organizations. Two possible conceptual and methodological explanations for this seemingly contradictory situation are proposed which distinguish "intent" from "actual turnover" and d…
Predicting Worker Turnover
The predictive ability of most turnover models emanates from a key construct measuring a worker's intention to withdraw from a work organization. Empirical evidence to collaborate this cardinal assumption has, however, only moderate support. To test the predictive value of intention to leave, a logistic regression model of combined cross-sectional and longitudinal survey data on workers'potential and actual turnover was initiated. The results dem…

Segregated Integration
A measure of ecological segregation based on the spatial juxtaposition of separate household units is employed to assess the adequacy of aggregate segregation measures. An analysis of ethnic household units in an urban tract in Israel shows that ethnic spatial clusters at the neighborhood and micro-neighborhood level do not match—and in some cases deviate radically—from the residential pattern depicted by aggregate measures. Implications are disc…

Organizational Behavior, Career Orientations, and the Propensity to Move among Professionals
Organizational environment and career motivations are examined in order to understand a professional's propensity to move. Four major groups of variabieU are examined: situational, professional-bureaucratic, occupational values, and career cycle/mobility orientations. The results of a step-wise regression suggest two major orientations associated with the propensity to move: the "career mobile cosmopolitan "and the "career mobile local. "A noted …

City–suburban destination choices among migrants to metropolitan areas
An analysis of destination choices among metropolitan bound migrants in an already highly urban society is a means toward gauging trends in the urbanization process. The results of this paper indicated that destination choices were strongly influenced by SMSA size, with larger SMSAs and particularly their suburban rings attractive to migrants. This pattern suggested the further growth of the larger SMSAs, to the detriment of those smaller in size…
