Work And Family Life: The Relationship Between Spousal Support, Spousal Conflict, And Work Outcomes, Ella Welch, Taylor Willits
Work And Family Life: The Relationship Between Spousal Support, Spousal Conflict, And Work Outcomes, Ella Welch, Taylor Willits
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Abstract Balancing relationships and jobs are difficult in the fast-paced lifestyle that the average American worker faces on a regular basis. If the relationship or job is more difficult and takes more energy and time, it may have an effect on the other. Too much attention on either area can be detrimental to the other, so it is crucial to maintain a balance between both areas of life. This idea is known as the spillover effect (i.e., how having a good marriage can produce satisfaction in both a relationship and in work) (Liang, 2015). Furthermore, family and work relationships can …

Does A Quota A Day Keep The (Safety) Doctor Away? The Effect Of Mandatory Observation Quotas On Safety Outcomes, Maira Compagnone, Ava Young, Rachel Bellflowers, Tara O'Neil, Matthew Laske, Yalcin Acikgoz
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Injuries and fatalities continue to occur at high rates across industries (BLS, 2018) despite attempts from researchers and practitioners to identify risks and improve operating procedures. Data analysis is currently used across other industries to improve outcomes, and the safety industry is turning to the use of big data in an attempt to lower injury rates. Despite the growing body of research including both data and safety outcomes, little has been done to understand the mechanisms of one of the most popular intervention techniques, behavior-based safety (BBS). BBS relies on human observation techniques, along with checklists, which increases the amount …
Can Hate Be Diluted?, Lacey Rutherford, Lauren Testerman, Windy Gordon
Can Hate Be Diluted?, Lacey Rutherford, Lauren Testerman, Windy Gordon
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Negative social evaluation can create a negative emotional response. Extreme negative evaluations create fear or anger and reduce self-efficacy (Pekrun, 2006; Shields, 2015). These negative feelings could harm the individual and they almost certainly reduce performance. Factors that neutralize the harmful effect of negative social evaluation could have utility in any performance or work setting. One factor that should be considered is the size of the social group within which the negative evaluation occurred and the “weight” of the negative evaluation. In simple terms, perhaps several positive or neutral evaluations can offset the effect of a single negative evaluation. This …
Feeling Remote: Factors Influencing Isolation In Remote Workers, Chelsea Bell, Judith Van Hein
Feeling Remote: Factors Influencing Isolation In Remote Workers, Chelsea Bell, Judith Van Hein
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
This study contributes to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the benefits and drawbacks of remote work programs. The purpose of this research is to understand how communication and interdependence of work tasks influence the level of isolation perceived by remote workers. Remote workers are especially vulnerable to feelings of isolation in the workplace (Cooper & Kurkland, 2002; Elst et al., 2017; Dekker & Rutte, 2007; Golden, Viega & Dino, 2008), which can lead to decreased job performance (Golden et al., 2008), impede professional development (Cooper & Kirkland, 2002), and lead to negative work-related well-being (Elst et al., 2017). The results of …
Workaholism And Well-Being: Psychological Capital As A Potential Moderator, Beatrice Demott, Shahnaz Aziz Phd
Workaholism And Well-Being: Psychological Capital As A Potential Moderator, Beatrice Demott, Shahnaz Aziz Phd
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
The aim of the current study is to examine the relationships among workaholism, psychological capital (PsyCap), and well-being. Workaholism is a condition which affects approximately 10% of the U.S. population (Sussman, Lisha, & Griffiths, 2011). Research has found it to be linked to many adverse outcomes, including physical symptoms such as poor overall health (Taris, Schaufeli, & Verhoeven, 2005), as well as psychological symptoms such as work-stress, work-life conflict, and burnout (Clark, Michel, Zhandova, Pui, & Baltes, 2016). In the current research, we are interested in identifying a construct that might ameliorate the negative influence of workaholism on one’s well-being. …
Part-Task Training Versus Whole-Task Training For Simple Versus Complex Tasks, Kerstie Hillman
Part-Task Training Versus Whole-Task Training For Simple Versus Complex Tasks, Kerstie Hillman
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
There is a plethora of approaches to training people on complex tasks. One method that has commonly been used is the whole-task training approach. Whole-task training occurs when an individual or group of people are trained on a task in its entirety within one training session (Wightman & Lintern, 1985). Another approach that has been used to train individuals on a complex task is through part-task training. Part-task training involves breaking down a complex task into smaller elements and training individuals on each of these elements before having to perform the task as a whole (Hasher, 1971). Throughout literature there …
Shared And Unshared Information In An Employee Selection Process, Seth Thomas, Glenn Littlepage Ph.D
Shared And Unshared Information In An Employee Selection Process, Seth Thomas, Glenn Littlepage Ph.D
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
This study tested two competing theories describing how information is shared in a selection process. The information processing theory says critical unshared information, important information not originally known, is more impactful than shared information, information known prior to making a decision. The alternative theory is social validation which says shared information is more impactful than unshared information. The importance of the information as well as when the information was provided, either prior to or after making an initial preference, was used to test each theory. Critical unshared information was more impactful in this study. Further results seem to suggest interactive …
Working With Wildlife: The Effect Of Stressors And Resources On Burnout And Engagement For Animal Caretakers, Destiny Burns, Kristen Black
Working With Wildlife: The Effect Of Stressors And Resources On Burnout And Engagement For Animal Caretakers, Destiny Burns, Kristen Black
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Employee stress can result in negative impacts both to the employee and to their organization. While all jobs are subject to stressors to some degree, certain occupations can face exceptional stressor levels or highly unique stressors because of the nature of the work. The proposed study aims to identify the common stressors for animal caretakers and the effects these stressors may have on employee engagement and burnout. The study will also examine the potential stress-buffering effects of personal and contextual resources. The project will examine common stressors that have been discussed in previous literature, as well as gain perspective on …
Effects Of Autonomy On Worker Performance, Allison M. Bihl, Andrew D. Johnson, Michael A. Humphrey, Alaina C. Keim
Effects Of Autonomy On Worker Performance, Allison M. Bihl, Andrew D. Johnson, Michael A. Humphrey, Alaina C. Keim
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Having autonomy can produce positive effects on an individual’s well-being as well as overall job-satisfaction. Research has shown that background music influences listener attention and is associated with the listeners fondness of the music (Huang & Shih, 2011). This study investigates the effects that autonomy may also have on performance levels in the workplace. Specifically, the effects of listening to music of preference and the effects it has on attention, concentration, and enjoyment of task. In this study worker autonomy is operationally defined as preferred genre of music. Performance will be measured by participants score on a recall task that …
Leader-Follower Pacing Style Discrepancies And Their Relationships With Individual Stress And Performance, Reed Priest, Michael Hein, Glenn Littlepage
Leader-Follower Pacing Style Discrepancies And Their Relationships With Individual Stress And Performance, Reed Priest, Michael Hein, Glenn Littlepage
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Workers have different pacing styles, which are defined as how workers distribute their effort over time to complete a task. Some workers prefer a high rate of initial effort, some choose a medium rate of consistent effort, and others enjoy a high rate of effort near the task’s due date. Furthermore, shared mental models among workers help reduce stress and increase performance by keeping everyone on the same page. As a result, it is predicted that discrepancies between leader and follower pacing styles may be one unshared mental model that positively relates to individual stress, negatively relates to individual performance, …
Validating An Ally Skill-Building Workshop: Assessing Antecedents And Outcomes, Chelsea Wymer, Alexandra Zelin
Validating An Ally Skill-Building Workshop: Assessing Antecedents And Outcomes, Chelsea Wymer, Alexandra Zelin
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Ally Skill-Building workshops are a recent development within the diversity field. Building allies in the workplace is essential to creating a culture of inclusion and respect and assists in mitigating the potential negative implications of an ever-increasing diverse workforce. While theoretical evidence exists surrounding individual and contextual factors that may impact the effectiveness of an Ally Skill-Building Workshop, no study has addressed the social norms, personality dispositions, biases stemming from social categorizations, reactions, and behavioral intentions over time. Specifically, assessing the level of inclusivity of participating organizational departments via social norms will help determine the environment in which an ally …

Smells Like School Spirit: The Organizational Factors Affecting Targeted Student And Teacher Outcomes, Lindsey A. Wuerfel, Karissa L. Scholten, Timothy J. Huelsman, Jennifer R. Mcgee, Terry W. Mcclannon, Shawn M. Bergman
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Teacher burnout and stress have been studied at length in the education literature, but industrial-organizational psychologists may have a fresh perspective to offer in regard to understanding and solving the problems that negatively impact the public education system. This study aims to identify the root causes underlying the constructs of stress and burnout through the examination of working conditions that impact teacher absenteeism, turnover, and health outcomes. Additionally, this study will analyze the various predictors of student outcomes, including yearly test scores, absenteeism, and disciplinary referral rates. We will begin by conducting focus groups of teachers from laboratory schools and …
Narcissism And Selection Decisions: Do Narcissists Select Narcissists?, Richard Evitts
Narcissism And Selection Decisions: Do Narcissists Select Narcissists?, Richard Evitts
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
The field of Industrial/Organizational psychology has long been concerned with the selecting the right individuals to fill the right positions within organizations. Of all the methods by which individuals are selected, the employment interview is the most common (Sears & Rowe, 2002). However, there are some that believe the employment interview may suffer from rater bias (Sears & Rowe, 2002). The phenomenon known as the “similar-to-me effect” is a type of bias that assumes those in a hiring position are more likely to select those candidates that exude personality characteristics that most closely resemble themselves (Sears & Rowe,2002). Although the …

How Your I-O Psychology Training Has Prepared You Handle The Big, Complex, And Scary World Of Data Analytics, Shawn M. Bergman
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Organizations, looking for new ways to collect and harness big data, are scouring the Internet in search of untapped outlets of information about job applicants and are using analytics on their internal big data generated by internal HRIS and processes. Despite being experts in organizational systems, quantitative and research methodologies, human behavior, and organizational change, human resource professionals are often intimidated by big data and analytics and are left out of critical analytic business planning, implementation, and evaluation conversations. While it is undeniable that technology has the capability to enhance human resource decision-making, the strong emphasis on technology also highlights …

Antecedents Of Voice: The Moderating Role Of Proactive Personality, Alice Pyclik
Browse all Theses and Dissertations
When employees are dissatisfied, they can choose a destructive solution such as quitting, or they can use voice to effect organizational change. A sample of 277 full-time employees in the United States responded to an online survey of voice, ethical leadership, core self-evaluation, proactive personality, affective commitment, and several control variables. Results from simple, multiple, and hierarchical regression analyses indicated that ethical leadership, core self-evaluation, and proactive personality have positive relationships with voice. In addition, ethical leadership facilitates voice through the path of affective commitment. Proactive personality compensates for low levels of affective commitment. Thus, managers can increase voice among …
Training Employees To Stay: T&D In Retaining Talent, Megan M. Waite, Troi N. Robinson-Moss, Sydney M. Kopelic, Shawn Bergman
Training Employees To Stay: T&D In Retaining Talent, Megan M. Waite, Troi N. Robinson-Moss, Sydney M. Kopelic, Shawn Bergman
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
The employee-driven market and “war for talent” demand organizations be increasingly competitive in maintaining the best workforce possible. Furthermore, factors such as millennial “job hopping,” employees leaving because of fears of layoffs and downsizing, and exiting the company without documenting valuable knowledge are all reasons to seek methods to decrease turnover. Organizations can use strategic and evidence-based training and development (T&D) practices to retain talent and prevent the loss of institutional knowledge. This session will discuss how T&D can be used to reduce involuntary turnover in organizations and cover how self-paced training, error management training (EMT), and the use of …
The Challenge Of Employee Retention In A Time Of Full Employment, Brad Pope
The Challenge Of Employee Retention In A Time Of Full Employment, Brad Pope
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
From time to time all organizations, large and small, struggle with employee turnover. However, it has been a consistent challenge for many organizations (especially in the healthcare arena) for more than a year due, in part, to the lowest employment rates the US has experienced for any sustained period of time. This presentation will focus on the difficulties of identifying, calculating, and addressing turnover, as well as examine other environmental factors that can impact turnover and question whether it is even beneficial for organizations to calculate and track employee turnover.

Using Past Surveys Of Attitudes To Predict Current U.S. Military Retention, Michael Siebel
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Retaining qualified active duty members in the military is an essential mission for DoD. This research presents findings on the relationship between an active duty member’s plans to stay on active duty (as indicated on a survey) and the member's actual retention behavior in the U.S. military two and four years later. Retention plans, as measured on the DoD’s Status of Forces Surveys, have often been interpreted as an indicator of subsequent retention behavior, but the relationship between survey responses and actual retention behavior has not been verified using actual retention data. This study seeks to examine this relationship. Further, …

Dysfunctional Retention: The Case Of Abused Worker Syndrome, Alexandra Zelin, Lisa Burke-Smalley
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Extending work from the realm of counseling psychology into the work environment, we examine the workplace complement of “battered person/spouse syndrome” in which workers stay with the organization despite experiencing abuse. We define this abused worker syndrome (AWS) as an association of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-type symptoms and other symptoms (e.g., anxiety, depression, low self-esteem), resulting from aversive incidents of psychological (i.e., non-physical) abuse at work. Our presentation will examine the contextual, relational, and individual antecedents of AWS, the psychological processes underlying targets staying, along with the associated workplace outcomes experienced by the targeted worker. We contribute a conceptual model …

River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Interventions which change the visual appearance of the work environment to positively impact employee and organizational outcomes are becoming increasingly common. For example, environmental interventions such as adding indoor plants, changing the color of the walls, and increasing the amount of artwork within a workplace can lead to reduced stress levels, anxiety, fatigue, and sick leave (Dijsktra, Pieterse, & Pruyn, 2008a; Dijkstra, Pieterse & Pruyn, 2008b; Nejati, Rodiek, & Shepley, 2016). However, more research is needed to discover exactly why changing the appearance of work environments have a positive effect and what factors may influence the effectiveness of these interventions. …

Developing A Measure Of Safety Data Culture, Matthew M. Laske, Maira Compagnone, Soundarya Kanthimathinathan, Ashley Tollefsrud, Yalcin Acikgoz, Tim Ludwig
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Safety is a critical concern for many organizations, especially those in construction and manufacturing. A newer approach to improving an organization’s decision making involves the use of data analytics. In regard to safety, the use of data analytics would allow for detecting and tracking risk factors such as behaviors, environmental contingencies, production, procedures, and hazards that are associated with workplace injuries. However, many organizations do not have a culture involving the use and measurement of relevant variables on an ongoing basis. Accordingly, the purpose of the study is to develop a measure of safety culture with a specific emphasis on …

Evidence-based management practices that include big-data mining strategies have become commonplace in many areas of organizational management and have been shown to be effective. However, organizations have yet to fully take advantage of these analytic methods to improve their occupational safety. The proposed study aims to address this gap by developing a strategy to utilize data that organizations are already collecting to describe, diagnose, and predict workplace safety outcomes. The five proposed predictor variable categories are production, procedures, hazards, behaviors, and participation. Data will be collected from a large American Fortune 500 company that specializes in the production of advanced …

The Effects Of Resilience On Mindfulness And Stress In Students, Stacey M. Stremic, Aneeqa Thiele, Macie E. Mussleman, Alexander T. Jackson
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
This study tested part of a theoretical model on resilience in the workplace proposed by Rees, Breen, Cusack, and Hegney (2015). We hypothesized that resilience would mediate the relationship between mindfulness and perceived stress. Using an online Qualtrics survey, we measured 127 student participants’ levels of mindfulness, resilience, and perceived stress. The results supported a positive relationship between mindfulness and resilience. In addition, there was a positive relationship between resilience and perceived stress. As a result, the proposed mediation was not supported. Resilience did not mediate the relationship between mindfulness and perceived stress. Future research should test alternative measures of …

Developing A Scale For Measuring Perceptions Of Ethical Misconduct, Andrea Meggison, Macie E. Mussleman, Alexander T. Jackson, Kyle Marks, Stacey M. Stremic, Kali Thompson
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
The purpose of the study is to develop a scale to measure individual’s ethical misconduct perceptions in the workplace. The Ethics Resource Center (2014) identified the most frequent types of ethical misconduct within the United States. These behaviors served as the 28 initial items for the implicit perceptions of ethical misconduct scale. A previous study identified four dimensions of unethical misconduct: Deceit, Use of Drugs and Alcohol, Sexual Misconduct, and Theft. The perceptions of ethical misconduct survey items were reduced to reflect the four dimensions. Therefore, we propose a confirmatory factor analysis on a separate data set will confirm these …

Early exposure to advanced math classes have shown higher levels of college readiness for students. However, there is evidence of a discriminatory gap among students of marginalized backgrounds in placement of these advanced courses. To examine this, three years of data from approximately 10,500 student will be used to develop and validate predictive models that examines both enrollment and performance in advanced math courses in the eighth grade. Data will come from a longitudinal study taking place in rural North Carolina. This research will use the predictive models to determine which students will be selected for eighth grade advanced math …

Who's Ready To Lead? The Impact Of Developmental Readiness On A State Leadership Development Program, Benjamin Chartoff, Richard Moffett, Michael Hein
River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
According to McKinsey & Company (2014), US companies are spending almost $14 billion annually on leadership development, only 7% of senior managers think their companies are effectively developing their leaders, and 30% of US companies believe their leaders lack the right capabilities. The current research addresses the leadership development issue from the antecedent perspective, and we are extending Avolio & Hannah’s (2008) theory of developmental readiness. They argue that individuals who possess higher levels of developmental readiness will be more likely to maximize their development when exposed to a developmental experience. However, there has been little empirical research on the …

River Cities Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference
Despite telecommuting’s tremendous growth in the last decade, it appears some employees are hesitant to participate in remote work arrangements. Previous research has shown employees to have a negative attitude towards telecommuting when they perceive the work arrangement offers more disadvantages than advantages (Vega, Anderson, & Kaplan, 2015). In addition, Cooper & Kurland (2002) found that employees often limit the amount of time they spend away from the office working as a telecommuter because they fear becoming professionally isolated. To expand upon these findings, the current study aims to investigate whether the fear of negative work outcomes (social isolation, professional …
