Past purchase and intention to purchase in e‐commerce
Purpose Purchasing on the internet has unique features that make it different from the traditional shopping process, particularly with regard to its social context. This study seeks to investigate the relationship between past online purchases and purchasing intentions, representing the social context by the notions of social presence and trust. Design/methodology/approach A sample of 115 working MBA students purchased an item online (but were st…
The Bush Tragedy
The Bush Tragedy opens up the black box of the plane-crash presidency of George W. Bush to examine the political wreckage of a period in America's history rapidly drawing to a close. How did a man of such evident flaws and limited abilities find himself in the position of the most powerful man in the world? How and why did half of America fall for Bush before falling out with him? But this book is not a litany of Bush's misdeeds or a personal ind…

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…
Differential components of urban in-and outmobility
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…
Categorical, Multivariate Analysis of Intra-urban Migration
A two-step paradigm is employed to analyse intra-urban migration patterns within Israeli towns. In step 1 of the paradigm, census-derived predictor macro-variables descriptive of towns are classified according to the intersection of two nominal dimensions. The three levels of dimension 1 correspond to the three factors emergent from a factor analysis of the predictor variables. These are labelled as representing either economic level, demographic…
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…
