The military occupational subculture : work and family role conflict for families of military personnelGilbert, Thomas B. 17 April 1995 (has links)
The focus of this study is the American military
family. The primary purpose is to examine the family from
the paradigm of a distinct occupational subculture and,
substantiating that existence, to understand the
implications of work-family role conflict of the military
family. The objectives are to substantiate the military
as an occupational subculture and explore military work
and family conflict through participative observation
techniques and, to a lesser extent, thematic analysis.
The research questions are "Is the military an
occupational subculture?", and "How does the work-role of
the service member affect the family?"
A pilot survey instrument based on the seven tenets
of an occupational subculture (Trice, 1993) was developed
to ascertain the level of subcultural affiliation of the
respondents. In total, 78 members of the military (Army)
were interviewed using the instrument. Examination of
thematic responses from spousal surveys complement the
overall analysis.
The findings indicate a strong affiliation within the
Army that would support the supposition that the Army is
an occupational subculture. Respondents exhibited
affiliation with all seven tenets above the 75% level that
had been established as a benchmark. Taken together,
thematic analysis of spouse perceptions viewed through a
subcultural paradigm, and service members interviews,
converged to demonstrate the probability of the military
as a distinct occupational subculture. As such, the
military has the capability to influence members and their
families through infrastructure (both formal and
informal), social, and perceptive requirements.
Subcultural forces may provide powerful conformance tools
for the membership. Obvious implications for
acknowledging the uniqueness of the military family as a
distinct subculture within American society are important.
To retain a viable fighting force, Army family policy must
be responsive and understanding of the military family
entity. Preliminary results indicate that further
exploration of the military with a subcultural perspective
could enhance soldier readiness. Further studies should
focus on the military family as the primary support
mechanism for soldiers serving in the modern military.
Additional study on families leaving the military to a
civilian environment would provide insight into the
mechanics of subcultural transitions. / Graduation date: 1997

Constructing a relational model for the "professional-clientele" notion within the context of workplace and work community: an investigation into the chef profession. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Digital dissertation consortiumJanuary 2005 (has links)
Current studies in the field of occupational sociology often present the deficiency of regarding workplace and work community as a backdrop, in front of which workers perform their duties. The two elements have not been receiving the attention they deserve. In light of this, this thesis argues that instead of merely setting the scene for investigation, workplace and work community are crucial and deciding factors in the construction of work identity. During the process, the influence of clients, including supervisors, peers and customers also comes in and participates in portraying this identity. Employing data collected through personal work experience, participant observation and in-depth interviews in commercial kitchens, this thesis advocates a conceptual model to explain the impact of these elements during the construction of work identity, and the dynamics among them therein. In terms of research method, this is also a demonstration of the importance of "going back to the workplace" when conducting similar researches under the auspice of occupational sociology. / Fung Yat-chung. / "December 2004." / Adviser: Lui Tai-lok. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-01, Section: A, page: 0356. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2004. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 200-202). / Electronic reproduction.

Location - Europe, occupation - Mujahedeen : choosing the radical Islamist career trackPisoiu, Daniela I. January 2010 (has links)
This thesis conceptualises Islamist radicalisation in Europe as a process of occupational choice. It follows the approach to individual radicalisation as incremental development (process) with the consideration of multi-level factors and dynamics. The analysis leading to this multi-phase process is grounded in data, comparative and comprehensive since it adopts a perspective of individual life-stories. It conceptualises radicalisation phases and the whole process not as something specific but as a concrete variation of a more general process. It further accounts for gradual change in time instead of sudden and radical points of change from ‘normality’ to radicalism, at the same time clearly defining the phases of involvement and the main categories and conditions impacting on the Islamist occupational choice. The theoretical framework integrates rational choice and framing theory elements within a general approach to the phenomenon of interest as social process. The methodology used is grounded theory and the data sources are in the majority primary data from fieldwork in Austria, France and Germany, along with secondary data and literature as directed by theoretical sampling. The structure of the thesis develops as follows: a discussion and clarification of the radicalism and ‘radicalisation’ concepts; a review and critique of the main contributions in the literature on Islamist radicalisation in Europe; the outline, rationale and application of the methodology; the emergence and dynamics of the Islamist radical occupational choice process; the analysis of occupational choice categories; and the emergence and impact of interpretative frameworks in shaping occupational choice categories.

Person-job fit and person-organization fit as components of job seekingRodgers, Carrie Anne 01 January 2000 (has links)
Job seekers have often made job choices based upon the degree to which they fit the tasks requirements of the job. This concept is referred to as person-job (P-J) fit. In addition, research has suggested that job seekers self-select organizations to work for based upon the perceived fit between themselves and the organization. This concept is referred to as person-organization (P-O) fit.
