Job Satisfaction And Job Performance: A Meta-Analysis, Michelle Iaffaldano [Graef], Paul M. Muchinsky Jan 1985

Job Satisfaction And Job Performance: A Meta-Analysis, Michelle Iaffaldano [Graef], Paul M. Muchinsky

Center on Children, Families, and the Law: Faculty Publications

The assumption that job satisfaction and job performance are related has much intuitive appeal, despite the fact that reviewers of this literature have concluded there is no strong pervasive relation between these two variables. The present meta-analytic study demonstrates that (a) the best estimate of the true population correlation between satisfaction and performance is relatively low (.17); (b) much of the variability in results obtained in previous research has been due to the use of small sample sizes, whereas unreliable measurement of the satisfaction and performance constructs has contributed relatively little to this observed variability in correlations; and (c) nine …

Neglect Proceedings And The Conflict Between Law And Social Work, Patrick R. Tamilia Jan 1971

Neglect Proceedings And The Conflict Between Law And Social Work, Patrick R. Tamilia

Duquesne Law Review

The 20th century might well be considered the age when children acquired the right to exist. To some, the rights and privileges of children have developed so rapidly that they would categorize our culture to be child-centered and our future to be youth-directed. For the undeniable betterment of mankind, within the past 50 years, we have come to be aware of the inner life and intrinsic worth of the child as an independent being. Much of what we consider to be permissive, uncontrolled child behavior is a result of the recent recognition of the individual worth of the child. Perhaps …

The Poor Kid, Jonathan Weiss Jan 1971

The Poor Kid, Jonathan Weiss

Duquesne Law Review

Juvenile law and lore present a series of real contradictions. An enormous mound of articles deal with the field, but there are only two Supreme Court cases directly on the question of juvenile rights in the juvenile court process. We have been exhorted time and time again to trust the state as a "loving parent" who has the child's best interests at heart. But many scholars have documented the horrors that a juvenile actually experiences in the state's dealings with him. Some judges too have recognized these horrors.

Equal Protection For The Illegitimate, Harry D. Krause Jan 1967

Equal Protection For The Illegitimate, Harry D. Krause

Michigan Law Review

In our time the general constitutional phrase promising equal protection has become specific law. It has been used to invalidate many state statutes which discriminated on the basis of race or other arbitrary criteria. Definite rules have been developed for this process of invalidation. These rules will be applied below to state and federal legislation that favors the legitimate child and discriminates against the illegitimate in matters of inheritance rights, rights of support, rights of name and custody, and social welfare. The question that will be asked is whether state and federal legislation may constitutionally discriminate between children on the …

Descent And Distribution - Intestate Succession From An Adopted Child - Who Aim His "Brothers And Sisters", Jack G. Armstrong Mar 1955

Descent And Distribution - Intestate Succession From An Adopted Child - Who Aim His "Brothers And Sisters", Jack G. Armstrong

Michigan Law Review

Decedent had never married and was predeceased by his natural and adopted parents. The California statute provided that in such a case his property would go to his brothers and sisters. Appellant, the natural daughter of decedent's adopted parents, contended that she was his sole heir under this statute, while respondent, decedent's natural brother, argued that the term ''brothers and sisters" meant blood relatives. The superior court applied the common meaning of the words brothers and sisters and held that appellant was not such a person. On appeal, held, reversed. Since the entire pattern of the California code indicates …
