Organizations with high formal cultural tightness regulate behaviors through explicit written norms and official sanctions, whereas those with high informal cultural tightness regulate behaviors through uncodified norms, collective beliefs, and informal social sanctions. Through a field study across 14 diverse companies in two countries (Malaysia and the Philippines) and two experiments involving participants from the United States, we found that perceived informal cultural tightness consistently exerts a more significant impact on stifling employee creativity than perceived formal cultural tightness. Additionally, we discovered that these two aspects of cultural tightness also potentially interact to influence employee creativity. Lastly, we identified promotion-focused (but not prevention-focused) self-regulation as a likely mechanism through which informal cultural tightness affects employee creativity. These findings contribute to cultural tightness-looseness theory and research on how organizational culture affects employee creativity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48442,"journal":{"name":"Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 104338"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141486145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One underexplored question is whether specific professions and associated job characteristics can foster neuroticism. Drawing on Cybernetic Big Five Theory (CB5T), we propose business-to-business (B2B) sales jobs entail frequent experiences of uncertainty, which over time increase salespeople’s neuroticism. Four studies with ∼1,700 B2B salespeople and ∼24,000 non-B2B-salespeople provide evidence that working in B2B sales jobs is positively associated with neuroticism. B2B sales job characteristics that are related to uncertainty and thus potentially explain the positive association of sales and neuroticism are complex customer needs, long sales cycles, complex sales targets, tough customer negotiations, and high shares of incentives in compensation plans. These results contribute to establishing CB5T as an explanatory framework for changes in neuroticism within the work environment. They also offer important implications for employees and managers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48442,"journal":{"name":"Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 104353"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141539813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But while the literature on goal setting has largely focused on specific goals, emphasizing their benefits relative to “do your best” goals, an important alternative has largely been overlooked: range goals. Contributing to this gap, we propose a novel conceptualization of range goals as dual reference points, emphasizing the role of the two range endpoints as discrete targets during goal pursuit. In this research, we develop and empirically validate two key propositions: (1) that a range goal’s lower and upper endpoints serve as distinct reference points, and (2) that individuals can flexibly direct (and change) their focus between these two endpoints during goal pursuit. Building on these propositions, we predict and test a series of implications for managing range goal pursuit (e.g., timing feedback messages or structuring complex goal tasks to enhance performance), finding that range goal performance is greatest when positive or encouraging cues occur around the range’s lower endpoint. Finally, contrasting these insights with related findings in the context of specific goals, we test and discuss implications for goal setting (i.e., choosing to set a range vs. specific goal for a particular application). Six main empirical studies (plus five supplemental and one pilot study) support our conceptualization of range goals as dual reference points, shedding light on when and why range goals are a particularly effective motivational tool.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48442,"journal":{"name":"Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 104340"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141539812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For instance, people’s decisions are often influenced by the presence of a dominated option (one that is objectively inferior to one of the alternatives) in a choice set. In studying such “context effects,” previous research has focused on how the composition of a choice set affects people’s choices and the way they attend to options and weigh attributes. We take a complementary approach. Here, we propose that the composition of a choice set may be interpreted as signaling information about the choice architect who curated the choice set. Further, we hypothesize that these social inferences can systematically influence decisions. Across seven experiments (<em>N</em> = 3328) using vignette studies and incentive-compatible economic games, we focus on one example of this more general phenomenon, showing that the inclusion of a dominated option can engender distrust in the choice architect. This distrust in turn leads to greater preference for other choice providers. By investigating the social implications of dominated options, we uncover novel psychological and behavioral consequences of choice set composition. We close by considering broader theoretical and practical implications regarding social inferences from choice context.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48442,"journal":{"name":"Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 104337"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141486759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, research is still in its infancy, often fragmented across disciplines, and lacking conceptual clarity. The purpose of this special issue, “Allyship, Advocacy, and Social Justice to Support Equality for Marginalized Groups in the Workplace” is to enhance understanding of allies and allyship. We argue that allyship is a mechanism for centering social justice, reducing discrimination and inequality, and improving intergroup dynamics, inclusion, social cohesion, well-being, and organizational effectiveness. We note the importance of distinguishing between conceptualization of who is an ally and the different types of allyship in a brief review of the foundational grounding of the research stream. Next, we examine findings and insights from the eight papers in the special issue, examining how they move the field forward. These articles provide a springboard for understanding how to define, measure, and evaluate allyship, and for identifying key dynamics (e.g., marginalization, dominance, identity motivations), antecedents, consequences, contexts, and boundary conditions. We conclude by identifying future research opportunities that leverage this special issue’s content and gaps to address. We believe that improving understanding of how to be an ally, what they do, and the conditions under which allyship is effective, is valuable for enhancing social relationships between and within marginalized and dominant groups in organizations and society.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48442,"journal":{"name":"Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 104336"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0749597824000281/pdfft?md5=9f692813e45bb31ed5f32813453db056&pid=1-s2.0-S0749597824000281-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141289464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study also documents that leader performance moderates the indirect effect between abusive supervision and upward hostility (through abuser labeling) and the indirect effect between abusive supervision and positive career expectations (through tough love labeling).

Across six preregistered experiments (<em>N</em> = 3,411), we found that participants placed greater weight on and paid more for others’ estimates when presented as advice than when presented as opinions. This advice framing effect substantially reduced egocentric discounting and held across various types of judgments, and for both good and ecological advice.
