Item The impact of organizational justice and job security on organizational commitment exploring the mediating effect of trust in top management.(2009-08) Jeon, Jeong-HoThis study investigated the impact of organizational justice and job security on organizational commitment through the mediating effect of trust in top management. On the basis of theoretical linkages among the constructs, a conceptual model and hypotheses were established. The sample consisted of 337 Korean employees who were drawn from six Korean firms. After reliability testing, two dimensions of trust in top management were found not to be reliable in the Korean context. In addition, three items of quantitative job security were not appropriate because of non-linearity. Finally, the factor structure of four measurement models was examined by an overall confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). All items showed an appropriate range of factor loadings. After examining the measurement models, the hypothesized structural model was tested and revised based on modification indices. As a result, the model fit was improved in terms of theoretical relevance and parsimony. The results suggest that both organizational justice and long term job security affected trust in top management and organizational commitment significantly. All hypotheses were supported; however, the mediating effect via trust in top management was not strong enough to link two predictors with organizational commitment. The result of this study suggests that organizations should take care of employees' personal and social needs in order to increase their trust and commitment toward the organization. Especially, social needs (organizational justice) should be maintained, as well as personal and economic needs of employees (job security).Item Investigating Organizational Counterproductivity: The Structurally Oppressive Situations Scale(2018-09) Johnson, LauraThe literature on organizational justice and employee attitudes has made considerable progress toward understanding an employee’s perspective of the employment relationship. However, to date, limited focus has been directed toward understanding the events and situations that precede perceptions of injustice. The primary goal of the present dissertation is to investigate the proposed construct of counterproductive working conditions as a potential antecedent to justice perceptions, and to evaluate how counterproductive working conditions are related to organizational criteria of interest. To accomplish this aim, this dissertation is split into three studies. Study 1 proposes a measure of counterproductive working conditions, with the Structurally Oppressive Situations (SOS) Scale. Study 2 investigates the convergent and divergent validity of counterproductive working conditions with existing constructs. Study 3 explores the relationship between counterproductive working conditions and organizationally relevant criteria (i.e. Counterproductive Work Behaviors and Organizational Citizenship Behaviors).
