An Analysis Of Generational Differences Among Civil Servants, Stacey L. Williams
An Analysis Of Generational Differences Among Civil Servants, Stacey L. Williams
Theses and Dissertations
There seems to be a wide held belief that different generations have different attitudes toward work, organizations, and co-workers. Clearly, these observed differences have implications for managers and leaders. Actions taken by leaders (who are often older) might be misunderstood by junior organizational members (who are often younger), leading to undesirable outcomes (i.e., turnover). Considering that many generational groups are represented within government service, there is a need to analyze and understand potential generational differences. With the notable exception of the Smola and Sutton (2002) study, little empirical research has explored the extent to which these differences actually exist and …
Military Members Responses To Sexually Harassing Behavior: Response Types And Efficacies, Michael W. Braucher
Military Members Responses To Sexually Harassing Behavior: Response Types And Efficacies, Michael W. Braucher
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis uses four sexual harassment response constructs and evaluates the efficacy of the responses. The constructs are built based on individual or joint/collaboratory responses and whether or not the harasser is confronted with his or her behavior(s) perceived as harassing by the victim. The constructs are applied to the 1995 Department of Defense survey of Harassment. Results include each response's effect on the harassing behavior, whether the behavior is ceased or not. A second result is the victim's perception of improvement or worsening of the situation based on the response type used. Tests for proportional differences were used to …
The Factors That Motivated American Ground Forces To Fight During Combat In Vietnam, William A. Schum
The Factors That Motivated American Ground Forces To Fight During Combat In Vietnam, William A. Schum
Theses and Dissertations
Many people debate the policies of the United States government with respect to the conduct of the Vietnam War. The war was unpopular, at best, and many argued that our military should not have fought for South Vietnam. So, what compelled American ground forces to fight an atypical enemy? This thesis explores the motivational factors that influenced the military ground forces on a daily basis. Past research conducted on previous wars serves as the guideline for the methodology used. Combat narratives are the data sources and references to motivational factors by the authors are the data. As a whole, the …
An Analysis Of The Use Of Social Processes During Computer Use, Shawna R. Wimpy
An Analysis Of The Use Of Social Processes During Computer Use, Shawna R. Wimpy
Theses and Dissertations
This study investigated the claim that people use social processes relating to other humans when interacting with computers. A laboratory study (n = 38) manipulated two team factors, identity and interdependence and a stereotype activation effect to two labels, generalist and specialist. Subjects for this study were military members or civilians working for the military. The results show that none of the subjects reported being influenced by team or stereotype manipulations as given in self-reports. Incongruent to these findings, the behavioral data demonstrated that subjects were influenced by stereotype labels. There were no interaction effects between team factors and stereotype …
