    Notes: Examines the Japanese management philosophy in organizations, and develops a 15-item, four-factor (family orientation and loyalty, open communication, team approach, and manager knowledge) Japanese organizational culture scale (JOCS). Investigates the differences in JOCS and other work-related variables between 156 non-unionized employees of one Japanese-owned automobile plant and 144 unionized employees of one US-owned automobile plant in the USA. There were no differences in income and education. Employees in the Japanese-owned plant had higher scores for family orientation and loyalty, open communication, team approach, manager knowledge, organizational commitment, organization-based self-esteem, organizational instrumentality, intrinsic satisfaction, and extrinsic satisfaction than those in the US-owned plant. Results are discussed in light of organizational culture and enhancing quality and productivity in the global competitive market.

    Endorsement of the money ethic, income, and life satisfaction: A comparison of full-time employees, part-time employees, and non-employed university students (2002)

    Notes: The present study investigated the money ethic scale among full-time employees, part-time employed students, and non-employed university students. Confirmatory factor analyses results showed that there was a good fit between the three-factor model and research data for full-time employees and non-employed students and a weaker fit for part-time employees and the whole sample. Further, factors success and evil were predictors of income for full-time employees. Money attitudes were not related to pay satisfaction. Factor budget was associated with life satisfaction for full-time employees and non-employed students. Full-time employees in this sample tended to be older, male, and have higher education than part-time employees and students. Non-employed students tended to have higher life satisfaction, lower protestant work ethic, less type A behavior pattern, and think more strongly that money does not represent their success, that they budget money carefully, and that money is not evil than part-time employees.

    Ability estimation for conventional tests (1993)
    Springer
    Psychometrika 58 (1993), S. 587-599 
    Details
    ISSN: 1860-0980
    Keywords: item response theory ; ability estimation ; reliability
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Psychology
    Notes: Abstract Five different ability estimators—maximum likelihood [MLE (θ)], weighted likelihood [WLE (θ)], Bayesian modal [BME (θ)], expected a posteriori [EAP (θ)] and the standardized number-right score [Z (θ)]—were used as scores for conventional, multiple-choice tests. The bias, standard error and reliability of the five ability estimators were evaluated using Monte Carlo estimates of the unknown conditional means and variances of the estimators. The results indicated that ability estimates based on BME (θ), EAP (θ) or WLE (θ) were reasonably unbiased for the range of abilities corresponding to the difficulty of a test, and that their standard errors were relatively small. Also, they were as reliable as the old standby—the number-right score.
