A Social Information Processing Perspective Of Coworker Influence On A Focal Employee, Zhijun Chen, Riki Takeuchi, Cass Shum
Hospitality Faculty Research
A critical omission in the coworker influence literature is how a coworker influences a closely related (focal) employee’s job performance behaviors and whether this influence is contingent on that coworker’s own behaviors. By integrating social information processing and social cognitive theories with social exchange and role theories, we hypothesize that there are, at least, three distinct types of coworker dyadic influence. Accordingly, we develop and test a moderated mediation model to explicate such influence. Two multi-source, field-design studies conducted in Hong Kong supported the modeled relationships in that employee role ambiguity partially mediated the relationships between coworker-employee exchange (CEX) and …

Qualitative Responses To Pre-Employment Drug Testing In The Foodservice Industry, Miranda Kitterlin, Lisa Moll

The purpose of this research was to assess and explore the attitudes, beliefs and perceptions of both management and employees in the foodservice industry regarding pre-employment drug-testing and its impact …
