Absenteeism in an Organizational Context
Research on absenteeism has led to the development of models that emphasize individual-level variables of satisfaction and job involvement but fail to recognize the social framework of absenteeism. Most studies investigate chiefly blue-collar workers in fairly routinized jobs; few studies cross industrial and occupational lines to white-collar or professional work. Our social model examines absenteeism in terms of alternatives available to employ…
Structural Persistence in Proactive Organizations: The Case of Sexual Assualt Treatment Agencies
Data from 36 well-established services and newly formed proactive agencies offering some services to adult rape victims are used to test our arguments that proactive organizations more than other service agencies use volunteers, make use of personal referrals to specific individuals in serving clients, educate the public, and secure more commitment of staff to the task or goals of the agency and less to the specific agency itself. We question lif…

choose among these in some rational manner? Perhaps we may have to fall back on the criterion of simplicity, as ambiguous as this may be in many instances. If a theory such as that of status inconsistency can yield a large number of predictions about diverse dependent variables, and if no other single alternative can do so, then one would ordinarily prefer the simpler more all-inclusive theory. For example, if it were predicted that inconsistenci…

Supervision and Group Process
Approximately a decade ago the Survey Research Center at Ann Arbor, Michigan studied the effect of different styles of supervision upon productivity and morale among workers. Supervisors stressing work output had groups with lower production than supervisors who were more group oriented and cared for subordinates' needs and welfare. The latter liked their jobs better and had higher morale than workers under the production-centered supervisors. Wh…
Expressive and Instrumental Groups: Toward a Theory of Group Structure
Research conducted in natural settings shows that the environment will influence the internal dynamics of group life. Hypotheses based upon data gathered from four work groups interrelate the empirical findings. A group perceiving its environment as bland or friendly develops a pyramidal structure with a task leader at the vertex; a group, interpreting its environment as threatening, clusters about a social-emotional leader who is the hub of a wh…
