Impostor phenomenon and career preparatory activities
Linking Protean Career Orientation with Career Optimism
Protean career orientation has become prevalent among young workers in contemporary workplace. Little is known about whether this orientation is related to their positive expectation of future career development. We developed a conceptual model to investigate the relationship between protean career orientation and career optimism. Informed by social construction theory and social cognitive career theory, we considered career adaptability and care…
Family-Friendly Policies
The need for family-friendly policies to balance work and life demands is growing. Many studies have addressed how family-friendly policies relate to a variety of employees' work attitudes and behavioral outcomes, but not how they (positively or negatively) affect them, especially the affective components of family-friendly policies that provide "felt" support to an employee. To fill this gap, this study adopts a moderated mediating mechanism to …
Students’ perceptions of English-medium instruction in a Hong Kong university
This article examines students’ perception of the English-medium instruction policy in a Hong Kong university. A survey was conducted in March/April 2014 with 606 questionnaires collected. Four factors of students’ perceptions emerged. In general, the students perceived the new language policy favourably with instrumental reasons. Variations in perceptions of the four factors were found based on the different characteristics of the students inclu…
The effects of gender role orientation and career/family role salience on organizational identification and intention to leave
Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine how gender role orientation (i.e. masculinity and femininity) and career/family role salience affect individuals’ organizational identification (OID) and intention to leave. Alternative models were developed to specify different relationships among the study variables. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected via a questionnaire survey of 362 employees from three large companies in China. Str…
Cultural Identity and Adaptation of Mainland Chinese Immigrants in Hong Kong
In this study, we develop a conceptual model to investigate how immigrants' cultural identity is related to their sociocultural adaptation and life satisfaction in the host society. In our model, we include two types of cultural identity (i.e., identity with the local society and with the home country), which are expected to have differential impacts on the outcome variables. We further propose that assimilation attitude and perception of discrim…
Gender, gender identification and perceived gender discrimination
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of gender and strength of gender identification on employees’ perception of gender discrimination. It also explores whether gender comparison and perceived gender bias against women act as mediators in the above relationships. It aims to advance the understanding of the processes leading to individual’s perception of gender discrimination in the Chinese workplace. Design/methodology/ap…
Family friendly work practices, organizational climate, and firm performance
We developed and tested a conceptual model to examine the impact of family friendly work practices (FFWPs) at the organizational level. In our model, top management support for equal opportunities is considered an antecedent of FFWPs and positive organizational climate, and firm performance and employee turnover are considered outcome variables. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the data collected from a sample of HR managers…
Antecedents and Consequences of Perceived Personal Gender Discrimination
Different responses to job insecurity of Chinese workers in joint ventures and state-owned enterprises
Job insecurity has become an important issue for western organizations in the last decade due to uncertain economic conditions, global competition, and the advancement of information technology. In this study, we integrate social exchange theory and rational choice theory to explain employees’ responses to job insecurity in the Chinese context. We distinguish short-term transactional exchange from long-term relational exchange, and argue that joi…
Trends in Occupational Sex Segregation in Urban China
This article employs census data of 1982 and 1990 to investigate the recent trends in occupational sex segregation in urban China. The relative impacts of the changes in the employment structure (i.e., the mix effect) and in the gender composition of jobs (i.e., the composition effect) are evaluated. Additionally, the concentration of women and men in the occupational structure is also examined. It is found that economic reforms in China, which s…
Gender Differences in Outcomes of Work-Family Conflict
This study evaluated the effects of two types of work-family conflict, namely work interference with family and family interference with work, on several work-related attitudes. In addition, it examined whether such effects were gender-specific. Survey data were obtained from a sample of 772 managers in Hong Kong. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that work interference with family, but not family interference with work, had a significant…
The Economic Role of Immigrant Wives in Hong Kong 1
The objectives of this study were to compare the employment pattern of immigrant wives with native-born wives in Hong Kong, to examine the independent influences of sociodemographic characteristics and the assimilation experience on employment behavior of immigrant wives, and to establish the extent to which immigrant wives' employment is affected by social and demographic factors and conditioned on the assimilation strategy adopted by their fami…

Employment Status of Married Women in Hong Kong
This paper examines the choices married women in Hong Kong make concerning their employment status. We attempt to relate such choices to wives' role constraints in the family. It is hypothesized that, given their primary responsibilities for child care and domestic labor, married women are likely to choose an employment status that best accomodates their familial obligations. The analysis of recent census data supports this expectation. Waged emp…
