From manager's emotional intelligence to objective store performance
The relationships among manager's emotional intelligence, store cohesiveness, sales-directed employee behavior, and objective store performance were investigated. Non-managerial sales employees of a large retail electronics chain in South Korea (N = 1611) rated the emotional intelligence of their own store managers as well as the group cohesiveness within their stores. Store managers (N = 253) separately rated the sales-directed behavior of their…
Prejudice Versus Discrimination in the Employment Interview
The effects of applicant race and applicant quality on recall errors and on decision making in the employment interview were examined. Eighty-eight white undergraduates in the mid-Western United States reviewed paper credentials and then interviewed a high or low quality black or white applicant in a controlled experimental setting. Results showed that, although the interviewers hired the black and white applicants in equal proportion, one week l…
A Taxonomy of Behavioral Strategies for Coping with Work-Home Role Conflict
The purpose of this study was to catalogue specific behavioral strategies used by dual-career couples to solve work-home role conflicts in each of seven broad areas: domestic chores, maintaining social relations, role cycling, job relocations, sex-role socialization, social pressure, and direct competition between spouses. Twenty-four men and women from dual-career families were interviewed using the critical incident method. Results show that si…
Combined Effects of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Rewards on Motivation
Contrasting predictions from expectancy valence and cognitive evaluation theories were tested in a 2 × 2 factorial design in which intrinsic and extrinsic rewards were independently manipulated. Based on critiques of earlier research, several relevant factors were considered in the present design: type of extrinsic reward, measure of intrinsic motivation, and use of moderator variables, such as higher order need strength. 94 college students work…
Combined Effects of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Rewards on Motivation
Gender differences in job attribute preferences
Role theory is used to test the notion that inter‐role conflict between work and non‐work spheres of life explains why men and women have been known to prefer different job attributes. Four job attribute factors were tested: intrinsic, career orientation, work conditions and parental support. Together with job level, all variables and their causal linkages were modelled in a path diagram. Multiple regression and path analysis were used to test th…
