Given the common use of self-ratings and other-ratings (e.g., supervisor or coworker) organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), purpose this meta-analysis was to evaluate extent which these rating sources provide comparable information. The current study's results provided three important lines evidence supporting construct-related validity self-rated OCB. mean differences demonstrated that difference in OCB ratings is actually quite small between self- other-raters. Importantly,...

The purpose of this meta-analysis was to clarify the current understanding relationship between counterproductive work behavior (CWB) and withdrawal. First, we articulate theoretical conceptual reasons for confusion on important issues, such as their conceptualization, labeling, measurement. Second, conduct a CWB withdrawal measures. We found that, measured, are strongly related have patterns nomological relationships with common correlates that nearly identical. organizational-target is...

Abstract Supervisor and coworker ratings (i.e., “observer ratings”) remain a common manner of measuring counterproductive work behavior (CWB) despite long‐standing doubts that observers have the opportunity to witness behaviors they are expected rate. We conducted 2 studies evaluated observability CWB items consequences observability. First, we show many CWBs unlikely be witnessed by supervisors or coworkers—specifically, such as “spends too much time fantasizing daydreaming instead working”...

Researchers are generally advised to provide rigorous item-level construct validity evidence when they develop and introduce a new scale. However, these precise, validation efforts rarely reexamined as the scale is put into use by wider audience. In present study, we demonstrate how (a) meta-analysis (b) substantive analysis can be used comprehensively evaluate for items comprising scales. This methodology enables reexamination of whether critical issues that may have been supported in...

We review the practice of building new psychological constructs by combining older (a process we refer to as construct mixology), with a focus on impact, methodology, and substantive knowledge implications this practice. Our suggests that some most influential micro-level in field management are either compound or old constituent have been used form mixology. Furthermore, range methodological approaches researchers employed when conducting mixology over last 30 years. These strategies from...

We investigated the joint effect of trainer expressiveness and trainee experiential learning style on training transfer intentions. Extending prior research where has been established as a positive predictor transfer, we show that is more impactful for trainees with high (vs. low) styles. Based our findings, trainees' styles – also related to one's intuition emerge important enhancers intentions, should be considered in future when assigning learning. In addition, found intentions mediated...

As organizational contexts are increasingly dynamic, the extent to which employees take initiative facilitate success has become more important. We examine how employee motivation get ahead (status striving) and along with others (communion predicts their proactive work behaviors, in form of personal initiative, over above accomplishment striving. Data collected from 165 indicates status striving a positive communion negative relationship initiative. More importantly, interaction between...

This study investigated whether the items on commonly used scales measuring task performance, organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), counterproductive work (CWB), and withdrawal were judged to represent alternative behaviors. We first found that each scale contained (by three independent samples) an construct. Importantly, we empirically verified these suggested revisions with sample of multi-source behavioral ratings showed model fit improvements factor loading increases when moved...

To investigate research questions surrounding workplace deviance, scholars have primarily applied variable-centered approaches, such as overall deviance measures or those that separate interpersonal and organizational deviance. These however, ignore individuals might employ more complex combinations of behaviors do not fit neatly within the existing variable frameworks. The present study explores whether person-centered classes emerge in a comprehensive database prior studies. We then...

Abstract Beyond the prior investigations that took scale‐level approaches to determining discriminant validity in proactivity constructs, current study contributes a much‐needed interrogation of items used measure behaviors this domain. The substantive (SV) assessments (Study 1) showed many were judged be inconsistent with definition construct they assess or, alternatively, more consistent different Further, exploratory factor analysis revealed difficulty empirically separating four...
