    An Examination of the Impact of Career-Oriented Mentoring on Work Commitment Attitudes and Career Satisfaction Among Professional and Managerial Employees (1994)

    Notes: Data obtained from 164 proteges in managerial and professional positions in public and private sector organizations in Singapore were used to examine the impact of career-oriented mentoring on three work commitment attitudes (career, organization and job) and career satisfaction. Factor analysis of the 15-item career-oriented mentoring scale (Ragins and McFarlin, 1990) revealed a five-factor solution – coach, sponsor, protection, challenging assignments and exposure. These career-oriented mentoring roles were differentially related to job involvement, organizational commitment and career satisfaction, and explained modest amounts of the variance in these outcome variables. T-test results indicated that mentored respondents (N = 164) reported significantly higher levels of the outcome variables than non-mentored respondents (N = 225). Limitations of the study, directions for further research and implications of the findings are discussed.

    Early Career Outcomes of Graduate Employees: the Effect of Mentoring and Ingratiation (1996)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Journal of management studies 33 (1996), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1467-6486
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Underpinned by the growing recognition of influence processes or a careerist orientation in the determination of career success, this study examined the effect of career-oriented mentoring, ingratiation and their interaction term on the career success measures of salary, number of promotions received and career satisfaction. Data were obtained through structured questionnaires from graduate employees (N= 432) working full-time in Hong Kong. Results of the ordinary least-squares regression analyses revealed a non-significant effect of career-oriented mentoring, ingratiation and their interaction term on salary. Career-oriented mentoring was, however, significantly positively related to number of promotions received and career satisfaction. Although the results reinforced the dominance of the traditional determinants of career success, the significant effect of career-oriented mentoring on two of the career success measures may help to paint a more realistic picture of the process of career success in organizations. Limitations of the study, directions for future research and implications of the findings are discussed.

    Psychological Contract Breach in a Chinese Context: An Integrative Approach (2003)
    Oxford, UK and Malden, USA : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Journal of management studies 40 (2003), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1467-6486
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes:   This study examined the antecedents and outcomes of psychological contract breach as well as why and how psychological contract breach is related to these outcomes. Respondents were Hong Kong Chinese employees (N=152). Results showed organizational change and history of contract breach to be related to psychological contract breach which, in turn, was related to turnover intentions, psychological withdrawal behaviour, and civic virtue. Further, trust in employer fully mediated the relationship between psychological contract breach and the work outcomes of psychological withdrawal behaviour and civic virtue but partially mediated the psychological contract breach–turnover intentions relationship. Lastly, interactional justice failed to moderate the relationship between psychological contract breach and the work outcomes.

    Central life interests of Singaporean workers (1989)

    Notes: Abstract This study uses Dubin's CLI concept to explore the relationship between the work and non-work life space of Singaporean employees. The sample size of 268 was drawn from a cross-section of employees in both private and public organisations. Most of the respondents in the sample adopted a flexible focus stance toward work. This finding supports the spillover model of the work and non-work relationship. No statistically significant relationship is found between commitment to work and occupational rank. The implications of the findings for human resource management in Singapore are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Data obtained from unionized employees inSingapore (N = 205) were used to investigate Strauss(1977) suggestion that union participation studies befitted into the general theories of role and commitment. Hierarchical regression analysis was used toexamine the contribution of role commitment variables(family and union) net of demographic, job or work andunion-related variables to the explained variance in a unidimensional model of unionparticipation. The model accounted for 43%(R2) of the explained variance inparticipation with the role commitment antecedent setcontributing a modest 5% (ΔR2). The significant positive individual variableswere union satisfaction, union commitment, union tenure,and gender while union socialization and marital statuspositively, and family commitment negatively approached significance. Extrinsic satisfactionwas significantly negatively related to participation.Limitations of the study, directions for future researchand the implications of the findings arediscussed.

    Family-Responsive Variables and Retention-Relevant Outcomes Among Employed Parents (1998)
    Springer
    Human relations 51 (1998), S. 73-87

    ISSN: 1573-9716
    Keywords: FAMILY-RESPONSIVE VARIABLES ; EMPLOYED PARENTS ; RETENTION-RELEVANT OUTCOMES
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Sociology
    Notes: Abstract This study examined the influence offamily-responsive variables and the moderating influence of gender on the retention-relevant outcomes of organizational commitment and turnover intentions. Data were obtained with the aid of structured questionnaires from employed parents (N = 228) in a human service authority in Hong Kong. Results of regression analysis revealed that satisfaction with work schedule flexibility and supervisor work family support were related to both retention-relevant outcomes. Contrary to our prediction, gender did not moderate the influence of any of the family-responsive variables on the retention-relevant outcomes. Limitations of the study, directions for future research and implications of the findings for enhancing the effectiveness of family-responsive human resource policies are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract This study examined the pay life satisfactionrelationship and the moderating influence of breadwinnerrole salience among a sample of Hong Kong Chineseprofessional and managerial employees (N = 255). The results of zero-order correlational andmoderated regression analysis revealed support for thepay life satisfaction relationship. The interaction termof pay satisfaction by breadwinner role salience made a significant but rather modestcontribution to the explained variance in lifesatisfaction and this finding was not gender-specific.Results of a subgroup analysis also revealed that thepay life satisfaction relationship was significant amongthe low breadwinner role salience group but wasnonsignificant among the high breadwinner role saliencegroup. In general, the findings highlight the importance of breadwinner role salience to employees'reactions to the economic conditions of work.
