The Impact Of Corporate Social Responsibility On Employees' Work Attitudes And Behaviors, Qian Yuan

Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)

Why do some new employees voluntarily leave within a short period after joining a corporation, while others do not? Drawing on information asymmetry theory and adverse selection theory, this dissertation argues that information asymmetry and adverse selection between job seekers and firms before organizational entry, or during the job search process, are important reasons for new employees’ short-term voluntary turnover. Because corporate social responsibility (CSR) can provide people with information about a firm’s capabilities, willingness, and intentions, this dissertation proposes that firms’ CSR activities can provide job seekers with information about various aspects of the firm. In doing so, CSR …

Human–Ai Interaction In Graduate Academic Work: A Job Demands-Resources Conceptualization Of Satisfaction And Emotional Exhaustion, Joey Oliveira

Human Resource Development Student Publications and Presentations

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are increasingly embedded in graduate academic work, shaping how faculty and students perform cognitive, analytical, and knowledge-based tasks. As AI tools become integrated into writing, research, and instructional activities, human–AI interaction has emerged as a central feature of contemporary academic work environments. However, existing research has largely focused on AI adoption and technological capability, with limited attention given to how ongoing human–AI interaction influences well-being experiences in academic contexts. Drawing on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) framework, this conceptual paper develops a model that links human–AI interaction to student learning satisfaction, faculty job satisfaction, and emotional exhaustion. …

Does Abusive Supervision Undermine Creativity? A Buffering Role Of Absorptive Capacity, Sayma H. Shetu, Md. Sanaul Islam, Abdul G. Khan, Md. Shahed Mahmud

Journal of Global Business Insights

This study investigates the underlying processes of this relationship by examining knowledge hiding as a mediator and absorptive capacity as a moderator, within the context of the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory. 385 garment sector employees in Bangladesh were surveyed using a three-wave questionnaire, and the results were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The study's findings demonstrate that abusive supervision negatively impacts employee creativity, in part by increasing knowledge hiding. Furthermore, higher absorptive capacity mitigates these adverse effects, reducing knowledge-hiding tendencies and enhancing creative performance. Theoretically, this study advances COR theory by identifying knowledge hiding as a …

How The Labor Movement And Labor Strife In Northwest Ohio In The 1930s Shaped The Structure Of American Labor, David M. Savino

For over a century, craft unionism dominated the American system regarding representation, influence, and immense control over the economy, society, and the political system.

Configurations Of Work Design: A Person-Centered Perspective Of Job Demands And Resources In The Healthcare Sector, Arian Kunzelmann, Mina Askovic, Vivien W. Forner, Nate Zettna, Anupama Jolly, Shanta Dey, Helena Nguyen, Anya Johnson, Sharon K. Parker

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

Work design is fundamental Human Resource Management (HRM) responsibility, which is crucial for employee well-being. Current HRM research on work design largely relies on variable-centered approaches. We argue that a person-centered approach uncovers more complex interaction patterns that are often obscured and provides a more holistic view of work design. Additionally, work design research often neglects occupational specificity, focusing on universal work characteristics. While this is important for generalizability, it can miss important industry and occupational variations, such as in healthcare. In this research, we focus on both universal work characteristics (feedback, autonomy, and support) and a dominant occupation-specific work …
