Multilevel approaches to stress management
When considering stress intervention strategies within organisational settings a variety of options are available to practitioners including job redesign, clarification of role relationships, developing coping skills, and employee assistance in terms of medical or psychotherapeutic treatment. It seems that many organisations focus on some but not all of the above when seeking to ameliorate the effects of exposure to stress. Most appear to address…
The nature and structure of workers' trust in management
This paper presents a theoretical and empirical analysis of the nature of trust at work. Use is made of the facet approach to generate a definitional framework of trust, and this is proposed as a theoretical basis for the analysis of the structural characteristics of trust. Hypotheses regarding the relations between the definitional framework and empirical observations were tested by applying Smallest Space Analysis to analyse data collected from…
On the importance of knowing the affective meaning of job demands
Theorizing about the effects of job demands on mental health, job satisfaction and performance can be enhanced by allowing for a more complicated view of job demands. This paper describes an empirical attempt aimed at investigating facets of job demands. It hypothesizes that (1) many individuals will agree that job demands of certain kinds and strengths, will be associated with either satisfaction, or dissatisfaction, (2) that there will be no ge…
The effects of long‐term unemployment on attitudes to employment
This paper is concerned with whether long‐term unemployment (6‐24 months) affects people's attitudes to employment once they have found a new job. One hundred and forty men aged 25‐40 were asked whether they felt various aspects of employment (e.g. job security, pay) are more important to them as a result of being unemployed. The effects of mental well‐being when unemployed on attitudes to employment are explored. Unemployment is reported to have…
An interactionist approach to measuring anxiety at work
This paper describes the development of a measure of work anxiety. The construction of the measure was guided by the interactionist position that behaviour is determined by situations in interaction with individual responses. In developing the measure it was also possible to test two hypotheses relating to interactional theory and a third hypothesis about whether previous experience of situations leads them to be seen as more, or less, threatenin…
Organization structure and sociometric nominations amongst line managers in three contrasted organizations
This study contrasts the interactions and influence choices amongst line managers in three organizations. The organizations were selected because of their contrasting formal structures (degree of bureaucratization, etc., after Pugh et al., 1968). The relations between the sociometric indicators and the various aspects of organization structure are explored across different sub‐parts of the line management systems. The overall results are that the…
