Component Structure of a Measure of Job Facet Satisfaction
The stability of the component structure of a measure of job facet satisfaction was examined across job levels at a large computer company. An internally developed questionnaire was completed anonymously by 4,130 employees (1,217 exempt and 2,913 nonexempt). Results support the internal consistency and construct validity of nine job facet satisfaction scales for both exempt and nonexempt employees: supervision, co-workers, pay, manager's manager,…
The perception of nonemergency helping situations
Individual differences in the perception of nonemergency helping situations were examined using descriptions of five situations in which a person asked for assistance. Four versions of each situation were created so as to differ in the costs (low vs. high) and rewards (low vs. high) associated with helping. One hundred and thirty‐two undergraduates indicated the amount of help they would be willing to provide in each situation and rated the perce…
Trait and situational attributions in a naturalistic setting
Student dormitory advisors (n = 16) made trait/situation attributions to themselves and also identified three friends and three acquaintances. Friends (n = 41) and acquaintances (n = 43) then made attributions to themselves along with attributions and familiarity ratings of the advisors who identified them. The actor‐observer effect was obtained for situational but not for trait attributions, both when advisors' self‐attributions were compared to…
Computer-Assisted Counseling
Recent computer-assisted counseling systems have been designed to treat specific types of psychological problems for which clearly articulated treatment strategies are available. Examples of such systems are MORTON, a program designed to treat mild to moderate depression, and PLATO DCS, a program for the treatment of moderately difficult avoidance-avoidance dilemmas. PLATO DCS and MORTON might be valuable for training counselors in treatment stra…

Four classroom demonstrations which inc…
