The experience of receiving scholarship aid and its effect on future giving: a listening guide analysis

Why are there so many people who receive scholarship aid who do not give back to the schools that gave it? Social exchange theories grounded in the assumption of direct reciprocity have long been the framework used within higher education to understand donative behavior. As a result, conventional wisdom within higher education holds that recipients of scholarship aid will later donate money to the institution that provided it. However, the philanthropic data show that most aid recipients do not, in fact, give back. This study probes the underlying factors for this phenomenon by using the Listening Guide, a voice-centered relational method of discovery, to analyze and interpret interviews with 10 scholarship recipients. By providing a more robust understanding of the experience of receiving, the findings challenge some of the most basic psychological and sociological assumptions about giving and generosity within higher education.     

新员工工作重塑会带来积极的结果吗?领导成员交换与个体传统性的作用

每年都有大量的高校毕业生进入职场。在企业竞争日趋激烈的今天, 如何将这些大学毕业生快速地转变成高绩效的企业员工, 是一个重要的研究议题。基于自我表达的理论视角, 本研究探讨工作重塑能否促进新员工的任务绩效和创造力, 以及领导成员交换和个体传统性如何影响新员工的工作重塑。我们对256名新员工进行4轮的问卷调查, 最终得到125份有效的匹配问卷。数据分析结果显示: (1)工作重塑会正向影响新员工的工作投入, 进而影响他们的任务绩效和创造力; (2)对于传统性比较高的新员工, 领导成员交换可以促进他们的工作重塑; (3)个体传统性正向调节领导成员交换对任务绩效、创造力的间接作用, 当个体传统性高时, 领导成员交换通过工作重塑和工作投入对任务绩效、创造力的积极影响更为显著。本研究从新员工自我表达的视角为组织提升新员工的任务绩效和创造力提供了新的思路。     

员工及其管理者的情绪智力对员工工作绩效的影响

研究员工及其管理者的情绪智力对员工工作绩效的影响,并探索了管理者的情绪智力对其下属员工工作绩效发生影响的内在机制。采用配对取样的方法对30家企业进行了管理者与其下属员工的配对调查。结果发现,员工及其管理者的情绪智力对员工的工作绩效都有显著的正向影响,领导－部属交换在管理者情绪智力对员工情境绩效的影响中起部分中介作用,领导－部属交换在管理者情绪智力对员工任务绩效的影响中起着微弱的部分中介作用     

偏好反转的兼容性假设的实验研究

本文采用一种新的偏好诱导方法——实物交换方法 ,对偏好反转中的兼容性假设进行实验验证。实验结果支持兼容性假设 ,并发现了一种新的现象 ,即偏好反转的倒置现象。偏好反转与偏好反转的倒置相映成趣 ,为解释风险决策中偏好反转的兼容性假设提供了充足的证据 ,也对风险决策中的纯粹理性提出了更多的挑战。     

组织支持感研究进展

领导-成员交换关系差异化研究评述与展望

领导-成员交换关系差异化是指在一个工作团队中, 团队领导与不同成员的交换关系在质量上的差异性。尽管它是领导-成员交换理论的核心内容, 但相比领导-成员交换关系质量, 关系差异化直到最近几年才得到学术界的关注。已有的研究表明它对个体和团队产出具有重要影响。本文从概念、研究起源、测量、影响因素、影响效果以及作用机制方面, 对近年来国、内外的理论和实证研究进行了评述, 并在此基础上指出了未来的研究方向。     

Perceived cultural distance and acculturation among exchange students in Russia

The relations of perceived cultural distance, personality, acculturation orientations and outcomes were studied among exchange students (N = 187) in Russia who came from various countries in Asia, sub‐Saharan Africa, Latin America and the former Soviet Union. The hypothesis was supported that a larger perceived cultural distance between mainstream and immigrant culture is associated with less psychological (homesickness and stress) and sociocultural (behaviour with Russian students and behaviour with co‐nationals) adjustment. The statistical relations between perceived cultural distance, personality and sociocultural adjustment were much stronger for host domain behaviour than for home domain behaviour. Adjustment was higher for participants with more cultural empathy, openmindedness and flexibility. Adjustment showed statistically stronger associations with cultural distance than with acculturation orientations. It is concluded that cultural distance may be more salient than acculturation orientations in studies of heterogeneous groups of immigrants. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

关系规范对消费者抱怨意愿及潜在动机的影响模型

现有的关于向企业进行抱怨的研究均建立在“理性人”的假设之上, 而忽视了消费者同时作为“社会人”需要遵循一定的规范。本文引入关系规范的概念(共有关系规范, 交换关系规范), 通过实验的方法探究其对消费者的抱怨意愿及潜在动机的影响。实验一的结果显示在服务失误水平低的情况下, 共有关系规范下的被试相对于交换关系规范下的被试更乐意向企业抱怨, 而在服务失误水平高的情况下, 这种差异不显著。实验二进一步验证了这种关系, 并发现共有关系规范下的被试向企业抱怨, 是为了帮助其发现和改进服务中存在的问题, 以提高服务质量, 具有利他动机。     

Money can’t buy love: Asymmetric beliefs about gift price and feelings of appreciation

Across three studies, we identify an asymmetry between gift-givers’ and gift-recipients’ beliefs about the link between gift price and feelings of appreciation. Gift-givers expected a positive correlation between how much they spent on a gift and the extent to which gift-recipients would appreciate the gift because gift-givers assume that more expensive gifts convey a higher level of thoughtfulness. Gift-recipients, in contrast, reported no such association between gift price and their actual feelings of appreciation. This effect occurred regardless of whether the individual’s role and the magnitude of the gift were manipulated or measured in the field. Taken together, these findings cast doubt on whether gift-givers can draw on their personal experience as gift-recipients in order to identify meaningful gifts for others.     

《周易》中“交感”思想的哲学意涵

《周易》非常重视“交”和“感应”,咸卦很好地体现了《周易》当中的“交感”思想．我们认为“交感”思想具有丰富的哲学内涵：天地交感化生万物就是一种宇宙生成论,讲述了世界上万事万物是如何产生的;男女交感始有人伦是一种社会伦理学,凸显了社会伦理在中国古代社会的重要作用;而圣人感人心而天下和平则很好地体现了中国古代的政治哲学．是占代知识分子的理想境界。“交感”的思想在中国哲学上有重要的价值．对宋初周敦颐和二程的道学思想产生了重要的影响。
