Employing equity theory and goal-setting theory, the present study investigates how distributive justice and goal clarity relate to turnover intention. Based on social exchange theory, i…

  • Transformational and Transactional Leadership Under Different Spans of Control

    Open Access•J Lim, Jae Young Lim et al.•ARTICLE•Public Personnel Management•2026

    While transformational and transactional leadership are key drivers of performance in public organizations, their effects on organizational effectiveness depend on structural conditions. This study examines organizational effectiveness—measured as agencies’ reported goal attainment—and analyzes how the span of control, an indicator of the structural distance between leaders and subordinates, moderates the relationship between these leadership sty…

    Open Access•J Lim, Kuk-Kyoung Moon et al.•ARTICLE•Health & Social Care in the…•2025•References: 9

Thus, this study explores the factors associated with COVID‐19 vaccination intentions, focusing on altruism and political trust and arguing that they are positively associated with individuals’ vaccination intentions. More importantly, this study examines whether …

    Open Access•J Lim, Kuk-Kyoung Moon•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2023

    Since early 2020, the rapid expansion of COVID-19 has raised concerns about vaccine safety and the government's handling of it. Particularly notable and concerning has been a growing number of people who oppose vaccines, as this opposition poses a threat to public health. Those for and against vaccination have become polarized along a political divide. Within this context, this study focuses on the role of political trust, exploring whether polit…

  • Exploring the Effect of Emotional Labor on Turnover Intention and the Moderating Role of Perceived Organizational Support

    Open Access•J Lim, Kuk-Kyoung Moon•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2023

    Synthesizing the conservation of resource theory, proximal withdrawal state theory, and job demands-resources theory, the present study examined the relationships between two dimensions of emotional labor (i.e., surface and deep acting) and turnover intention, as well as the moderating role of perceived organizational support in these relationships, such as the context of Korean firefighters. Using survey data drawn from fire organizations in Gye…

    Environmental degradation in recent years has been threatening not only environmental sustainability but also human viability.

    Open Access•Kuk-Kyoung Moon, Robert K Christensen•ARTICLE•Journal of Public Administration…•2022•Cited by: 3•References: 89

    Despite public administration’s growing interest in personnel diversity and ethical leadership, little is known about the effectiveness of ethical leadership in managing diverse public workforces.

To answer, we synthesize four theories about demographic diversity, ethical leadership, and inclusion: social categorization theory, social …

  • The Implications of Political Trust for Supporting Public Transport

    Open Access•J Lim, Kuk-Kyoung Moon•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Policy•2022•Cited by: 3•References: 41

    Despite the importance of public transport for urban vitality, social equity, and mobility, the discussions surrounding these topics have become heated ideological battles between liberals and conservatives in the United States, as in other countries. Conservatives, in particular, have exhibited anti-transit attitudes that have worked against the development of public transport.Scholars note that political trust functions as a heuristic and its i…

  • Transformational Leadership and Employees’ Helping Behavior in Public Organizations

    Open Access•J Lim, Jae Young Lim et al.•ARTICLE•Public Personnel Management•2021

    Although transformational leadership (TFL) has been recognized as a significant predictor of follower work behaviors, open questions remain concerning whether its effectiveness is universally valid or contingent on context. Building on social exchange theory and leadership contingency theory, we propose that TFL affects employees’ helping behavior, and this relationship depends on centralized and formalized structural contexts. The results show t…

    Open Access•J Lim, Kuk-Kyoung Moon et al.•ARTICLE•International Review of…•2021•Cited by: 2•References: 11

    Although the relationships between public service motivation and work-related outcomes are contingent on an employee’s psychological state, little empirical evidence exists on whether psychological empowerment conditions the relationship between public service motivation and perceived organizational performance in public organizations. This study addresses this gap by examining data from the 2010 US Merit Principles Survey on psychological empowe…
