Predicting compliance with prescribed organizational information security protocolsShropshire, Jordan Douglas 13 December 2008 (has links)
Why do some employees go out of their way to follow prescribed information security protocols, while others all but ignore organizational information security measures? A body of research known as organizational citizenship behavior provides insight into this issue. Theories of organizational citizenship behavior draw mainly from the psychological and sociological disciplines. They are used to explain the behaviors of employees who act in the best interest of the company, even when they don’t have to. Examples of citizenship behaviors include information sharing, voluntary reduction of compensation, and relinquishment of power for the benefit of the organization (Nathanson & Becker 1973). Although organizational citizenship behavior has seen little exposure in the area of organizational information security compliance, it stands to provide exceptional explanatory power in this area. Information security practices, such as creating difficult passwords or conducting virus scans, are generally seen as additional tasks which require extra effort while offering no gains in personal productivity (Shropshire et al., 2006; Warkentin et al., 2004; Warkentin et al., 2006). These activities could be construed as out-of-role-behaviors because employee compliance may not be mandatory. Furthermore, it is difficult to enforce information security standards (Whitman, 2003). Thus, it would appear that those who follow information security protocols are motivated by something other than financial compensation. Currently, there has been little work toward integrating endpoint security with theories of organizational citizenship behavior. This may be due to two reasons: although it embodies a relatively mature stream of research, organizational citizenship behavior has seen little exposure within the information systems context; secondly, the behavioral aspects of endpoint security remain a critical but overlooked aspect of organizational information security. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to develop a theoretical model for predicting individual compliance with organizational information security practices. The results could be used by managers to more accurately predict adherence to information security practices and to better manage and motivate employees. Such a model might also be of utility in the area of employee selection and screening; recent political and economic events have caused an increase in demand for employees who can be trusted to safeguard sensitive information. This study provides a substantial contribution to knowledge by empirically testing a predictive model for information security compliance among employees. The findings associated with this research are offered in the form of recommendations for future theoretical and empirical research. Practical implications for entrepreneurs and policymakers are also discussed.

An Exploratory Study of Reception of Organizational Citizenship Behaviors and Work Related Outcomes: It is Good for Your Co-workersChe, Xinxuan 01 January 2012 (has links)
The predictors of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) - performance that supports the social and psychological environment in which task performance takes place - have been studied extensively in previous research. Surprisingly, only a few studies have looked into OCB's effects on individuals who might benefit from it. The purpose of the current study was to explore effects of individual-level OCB on its recipients. Reception of OCB (ROCB) is described and proposed to be related to targets' performance, job stress and job strains. In addition, narcissism and proactive personality were explored as predictors of reception of OCB also as moderators of the relationships between reception of OCB and job-related outcomes. I sampled 372 employed students through online surveys. Results showed that ROCB is positively related to the recipients' proactive personality, narcissism, overall job performance, organizational citizenship behavior, job satisfaction, organizational affective commitment, and negatively associated with recipients' work interfere with family and turnover intension. Moreover, the study found no moderating effects of proactive personality or narcissism on these relationships. It was showed that ROCB is an important construct that needs to be taken into account in future organizational studies since it has significant relationships with other commonly studied organizational variables. Future studies should try to replicate the current results using different samples. Moreover, longitudinal design should be used to study the casual relationships between ROCB and organizational variables.

“Skolan har ju ett fostrande uppdrag och ett främjande uppdrag” : En kvalitativ intervjustudie om skolans arbete med psykisk hälsa i mellanstadiet ur ett lärarperspektiv / "The school has a nurturing and a promoting mission" : A qualitative interview study about school's work with mental health in middle school from a teacher's perspectiveFasth, Moa-Lee, Spahija, Hidajete January 2023 (has links)
Psykisk ohälsa bland barn och unga är ett stort folkhälsoproblem i dagens samhälle, studiervisar att ungdomars psykiska ohälsa debuterar redan innan 14-årsåldern och forskning harvisat att hälsoundervisning i skolan har en positiv påverkan på elevernas välbefinnande. Barn och unga spenderar stor del av sin vardag i skolan vilket gör skolan till en bra arena för attfrämja hälsa och förebygga ohälsa. Med utgångspunkt i det folkhälsovetenskapliga arbetetsyftar studien till att undersöka hur skolor arbetar med psykisk hälsa i mellanstadiet ur ettlärarperspektiv. Studien hade till avsikt att besvara frågeställningen: Hur vill lärare arbeta medpsykisk hälsa i skolan? Vilka hinder uppfattar lärare att det finns för att tillämpa psykisk hälsai skolan? En kvalitativ metod med induktiv ansats och deskriptiv design tillämpades för att få insikt ilärarnas erfarenheter och upplevelser inom ämnesområdet. Vi samlade in empirin genom 10semistrukturerade intervjuer som genomfördes via Zoom med mellanstadielärare runt om ilandet. Informanterna valdes ut genom ett avsiktligt urval där mellanstadielärare medvetetvaldes ut för att de besitter förmågan att belysa ett specifikt fenomen. Inklusionskriterierna fördeltagandet var att arbeta som mellanstadielärare inom friskolor och kommunala skolor. Degenomförda intervjuerna transkriberades och analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Studien utgår från de teoretiska utgångspunkterna Salutogenes och Organizational citizenship behavior. Resultatet av studien visar att lärare saknar stöd, kompetens och resurser för att kunna arbetahälsofrämjande med elevers psykiska hälsa. Skolornas arbete med psykiskt arbete skiljer sigåt skolor emellan, likaså skiljer lärarnas arbetssätt åt i ämnet. Detta tycks bero på att skolornasaknar en gemensam kunskapssyn i arbetet samt att de aktuella riktlinjerna i läroplanen intebetonar hur man ska arbeta med elevers psykisk hälsa utan lämnas för fri tolkning. / Mental illness among children and youth is a major public health problem in today's society,studies show that young people's mental illness begins before the age of 14 and research hasshown that health education in school has a positive impact on students' well-being. Childrenand young people spend a large part of their daily life at school, which makes school a goodarena for promoting health and preventing ill-health. Based on public health science work, thestudy aims to investigate how schools work with mental health in middle school from ateacher's perspective. The study intended to answer the question: How do teachers want towork with mental health in school? What barriers do teachers perceive there to be inimplementing mental health in schools? A qualitative method with an inductive approach and descriptive design was applied to gaininsight into the teachers' experiences in the subject area. We collected the empirical evidencethrough 10 semi-structured interviews that were conducted via Zoom with middle schoolteachers around the country. The informants were selected through purposive sampling wheremiddle school teachers were deliberately selected because they possess the ability to shedlight on a specific phenomenon. The inclusion criteria for participation were to work as amiddle school teacher in independent and municipal schools. The conducted interviews weretranscribed and analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. The study is based on thetheoretical starting points Salutogenesis and Organizational citizenship behavior. The results of the study show that teachers lack support, competence, and resources to be ableto work health promotion with students' mental health. The schools' work with psychologicalwork differs between schools, as do the teachers' working methods in the subject. This seemsto be due to the fact that the schools lack a common view of knowledge in the work and thatthe current guidelines in the curriculum do not emphasize how to work with students' mentalhealth but are left to free interpretation.

Påverkar arbetet med Corporate Social Responsibility de anställda? : En kvantitativ studie av ett kooperativt företag i fastighetsbranschenCavka, Irma, Karlsson, Anna January 2016 (has links)
Studiens syfte var att undersöka huruvida ”Corporate Social Responsibility” (CSR) påverkar de anställdas organisatoriska engagemang och ”Organizational Citizenship Behavior” (OCB) positivt samt huruvida CSR-aktiviteterna minskar de anställdas vilja att säga upp sig. Forskningsstrategin har utgått ifrån en deduktiv ansats och grundades i en kvantitativ design där en webbaserad enkätstudie skickades ut till de anställda på ett medelstort kooperativt företag inom fastighetsbranschen under april 2016. Ett klusterurval genomfördes vilket genererade 62 enkätsvar med en svarsfrekvens på 36%. För att säkerställa mätinstrumentets reliabilitet användes Cronbachs alfa reliabilitetskoefficient där samtliga värden låg mellan α=0,81 och α=0,89. Pearsons korrelationsanalys och flera stegvisa regressionsanalyser utfördes för att analysera data. En signifikansnivå på p=0,05 tillämpades och studiens resultat visade att CSR predicerar de anställdas organisatoriska engagemang (p <0,001) och OCB (p <0,001). Slutsatsen av resultatet indikerade på att företagets CSR-arbete är relevant och har en positiv påverkan på de anställdas attityder och beteenden.

WHO YOU ARE AND WHO YOU KNOW: THE INFLUENCE OF PERSONENVIRONMENT FIT AND SOCIAL NETWORK CENTRALITY ON INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCESoltis, Scott Matthew 01 January 2012 (has links)
Job seekers and employers frequently make application and selection decisions based on how well they believe there is a ‘fit’ with the organization and job. The personenvironment fit literature has strongly supported this practice demonstrating that fit is an antecedent to attraction, selection, and attrition. What has been lacking, however, is evidence that once individuals enter the organization their fit relates to performance. Using a social network analytical lens, I develop a framework that integrates PE fit and social networks to explore antecedents to employee performance. Using this framework, I explore how informal workplace relationships may act as catalysts through which fit either enhances or detracts from individual performance, how fit might directly influence performance once the social context is taken into account, and how fit might make an individual an attractive exchange partner benefiting performance. Results suggest that PE fit is related to individual performance (both in- and extra-role) but that this relationship differs depending on how well embedded the employee is in the informal social networks of the organization. It is only when accounting for the ‘who you know’ element of organizational life that we can see how ‘who you are’ relates to performance.

Organizational Justice Perception and Its Effects on Knowledge Sharing: a Case Study of Forensics in the Turkish National PoliceCan, Ahmet 08 1900 (has links)
In today’s economy, organizational knowledge is a fundamental factor for remaining competitive and managing intellectual capital. Knowledge Management aims to improve organizational performance by designing the work environment with necessary tools. Yet, significant amount of knowledge resides within the people in different forms such as experience or abilities. Transferring individual knowledge within members or into organizational repositories is so difficult. Knowledge sharing only occurs under certain circumstances: People share knowledge when they believe it is beneficial for them, when they feel safe and secure, and when they trust. Since knowledge is power, and brings respect to its bearer, knowledge sharing needs suitable environment. In this context, this study investigates intention to knowledge sharing among forensics in the Turkish National Police (TNP) and the factors -such as perceived organizational justice, organizational citizenship behaviors, subjective norms, and attitudes toward knowledge sharing- affecting their intentions. The researcher utilized a model developed from Ajzen and Fishbein’s (1975; 1980) theory of reasoned action (TRA). To test this model, a self-administered questionnaire survey was administered in Turkey In order to analyze the quantitative data; SPSS version 19 was used for all preliminary analyses and LISREL 8.8 was used for Regression Analysis and Path Analysis The fit of the data to this proposed model was not adequate. However, 7 of the 8 hypotheses supported.

Varför beter sig chefer kontrollerande? Betydelsen av medarbetares prestation och psykologiska behov samt chefers stressEliasson, Linda, Hedvall, Johanna January 2019 (has links)
Destruktiva former av ledarskap har visat sig ha stor negativ påverkan på både individnivå och organisatorisk nivå. För att minska förekomsten av destruktiva ledarbeteenden är det viktigt att förstå vad som bidrar till att chefer agerar destruktivt. Studien syftade därför till att undersöka antecedenter (orsaker) till kontrollerande ledarskap. Data insamlades i en medelstor kommun genom webbaserade enkäter till chefer (n = 37) och deras medarbetare (n = 329) vid två tillfällen. Flernivåanalys användes för att analysera data. I linje med Self-determination theory (SDT) visade resultaten att lägre känsla av kompetens hos medarbetare predicerar ökad grad av kontrollerande ledarbeteenden hos chefer. Vidare återfanns resultat som visar att medarbetares arbetsprestation samt chefers stress inte predicerar kontrollerande ledarskap. Sammanfattningsvis indikerar resultaten att följare har betydelse för ledares användande av kontrollerande ledarbeteenden. Denna kunskap kan bidra till utformningen av interventioner i syfte att minska kontrollerande ledarskap och i förlängningen de kostsamma effekter som följer. / Destructive forms of leadership have been proved to have major negative impact at both individual and organizational levels. To reduce the occurrence of destructive management behaviors it is important to understand what contributes to the manager acting destructive. The study therefore aimed to investigate antecedents (causes) to controlling leadership. Data were collected in a medium-sized municipality through web-based surveys, to managers (n = 37) and their employees (n = 329) on two occasions. Multilevel analysis was used to analyze data. In line with Self-determination theory (SDT), the results showed lower sense of competence among employees predicts higher levels of controlling leadership behaviors among managers. Furthermore, the results showed that employees’ work performance and managers’ stress do not predict controlling leadership. In summary, the results indicate that followers play a role in manager’s use of controlling leadership behaviors. This knowledge can contribute to the design of interventions in order to reduce controlling leadership and, in the long run, the costly effects that follows.

Revisiting Faculty CitizenshipHammer, Dana P., Bynum, Leigh Ann, Carter, Jean, Hagemeier, Nicholas E., Kennedy, Daniel R., Khansari, Parto, Stamm, Pamela, Crabtree, Brian 01 January 2019 (has links)
Faculty citizenship and institutional culture are critically important to the health and success of any college/school of pharmacy. This commentary describes the current relevance and importance of faculty citizenship in the broader context of institutional culture and provides a definition of faculty citizenship for use across all aspects of faculty roles in the pharmacy academy. The definition includes two key components (engagement and collegiality) that can be used to measure citizenship behaviors. Continued discussion and study of faculty citizenship will further the academy’s understanding and use of the concept

Psychological Contract Fulfilment and Innovative Work Behaviours of Employees in Sport-Based Sbes: The Mediating Role of Organisational CitizenshipBarnhill, Christopher R., Smith, Natalie L. 18 December 2018 (has links)
The current study explored the role of psychological contract fulfilment on innovative work behaviours of employees in sport-based small business enterprises (SBEs). Building on literature from sport and non-sport organisational contexts, a model positing a direct linear relationship between psychological contract fulfilment and innovative work behaviours was proposed. Affective commitment and organisational citizenship behaviours were included in the model as partial mediators. The model was tested using a sample of 216 employees from affiliated minor league baseball franchises. Results supported a model where organisational citizenship fully mediated the relationship between psychological contract fulfilments and innovate work behaviours. Affective commitment was predicted by psychological contract fulfilment but was not significantly related to the other variables in the model.
