Abstract

By returning to an old insight that frames of reference influence action, we theorize that actors’ frames influence their desired HR practices, and these practices will be stable if managers and employees share similar frames. When actors’ frames are mismatched, however, HR practices can violate employee expectations and trigger a sensemaking process, potentially leading to framing contests and conflict. We hypothesize predicted patterns of conflict and expected outcomes depending on the nature of the mismatched frames. Allowing for mismatched frames uniquely highlights the importance of recognizing managers’ and employees’ frames for understanding HR outcomes and conflicts observed in practice.

理解(不)匹配的参考框架:人力资源实践中(不)稳定的动态认知理论
通过回归到参考框架影响行动这一古老的见解,我们推断行为者的框架影响他们期望的人力资源实践,如果管理者和员工共享相似的框架,这些实践将是稳定的。然而,当参与者的框架不匹配时,人力资源实践可能会违反员工的期望,引发一个意义构建过程,潜在地导致框架竞争和冲突。我们假设冲突的预测模式和预期结果取决于不匹配框架的性质。考虑到不匹配的框架,独特地强调了认识管理者和员工的框架对于理解实践中观察到的人力资源结果和冲突的重要性。
