The modulate fact of Organization Political Perception on the adverse effects of work stress--The Case of Bank IndustryWu, Chun-Yi 29 December 2003 (has links)
Political behavior does exist in organizations. Perceptions of organizational politics affect decision-making of many issues in human resource departments from promotions to salaries. When members of organizations realize that political behavior will affect their promotions and salaries, thereby not fulfilling their expectations; the resulting perception may potentially bring an adverse effect on their work ethic. In recent years, many studies have taken place on the perceptions of organizational politics and its negative effects, the studies not only took objective environmental factors into consideration but also examined the subjective personal factors. Thus, the purpose of this study is to measure the effects of the organization¡¦s member¡¦s awareness of the existence of political behavior on work stress, and to examine if intervening variables, such as, ¡§Type A personality¡¨, ¡§locus of control¡¨, ¡§understanding¡¨, and ¡§control¡¨, would modulate the adverse effects of their perceptions of organizational politics on work stress.
Four national financial institutions were the recipients of this study, from whom 280 valid copies were received. The use of methodology includes factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis. The survey indicated that a) the perceptions of organizational politics have adverse effects on work stress, b) Type A personality, locus of control, and control, have remarkable modulating effects on the relationship between the perceptions of organizational politics and work stress in terms of under-utilization of skill, c) locus of control has significant modulating effects on the relationship between the perceptions of organizational politics and work stress in terms of work overload.

Perceptions of Organizational Politics Scale and Construct¡XEstablishment and Development of Taiwan ExperienceShu-fang, Tseng 17 February 2005 (has links)
The Perceptions of Politics Scale (POPS) that the researchers use to measure organizational politics vary greatly among different scholars of different countries. Even the inventors, (Kacmer & Ferris) themselves were inconsistent in using the measurement scales. Therefore, the motive and purpose of this study were to construct generalizability, confirmation, validity scale, the predictive relations between the perceptions of organizational politics and job stress, effect of the cross-sample and cross-circumstance so as to apply the model to other sampling population, hoping to faithfully reflecting the variables observed in them.
This study used the scale of 26 items collected by Dr. Ho Chin-ming et al. using the statistics of 2002 and 2003 measured among 36 organizations of 9 industries in Taiwan. A total of 6,143 questionnaires (return rate of 63.44%) were used. Up to 82.9% of the valid questionnaires were adopted in the final analysis. The data were analyzed by applying statistical methods, including item analysis, reliability (Cronbach¡¦s £\), consistency corrected item-total correlation, alpha if item deleted and exploratory factor analysis for data-reduction.
The structural model for POPS was empirically derived and developed. Model development strategy was used to choose the best from four measurement models, all 25 items mapping to one factor (perceptions of organizational politics), five factors retained, three factors retained (19 items), four factor retained (17 items). All were competing models. One measurement model was job stress. First order of hybrid model and second order of hybrid model forecast relationship between the perceptions of organizational politics and job stress. The result of hybrid model factors produced the most parsimonious set of items of acceptable reliability as the best model chosen. Models needed to follow, model specification, parameter estimates ( factors were analyzed and mean values for each item across the factors were calculated ), model identification, t-rule and overall model-fit (e.g., absolute fit indexes: £q2, df, GFI, SRMR, RMSEA & ECVI; relative fit indexes: NFI, NNFI, CFI, IFI & RFI; parsimonious fit indexes: PNFI, PGFI, AIC, CN & Normed £q2) using the available LISREL indicators.
The result of using discriminating validity measure ¡¨supervisor behavior¡¨ and ¡§coworker and clique behavior¡¨ indicates that they are different constructs. Criterion-related validity measure is also distinct form criterion. Discriminate validity measures three factor and four factor model which are unidimension. The chi-square difference test comparison of three and four factor model is significant. Indicators of AIC, ECVI, CAIC and double cross-validation indicate the first order hybrid model is the best model chosen by the study. Loose replication strategy and tight replication strategy of cross-validation indicate model effect of the cross-sample and cross-circumstance and extension to other sampling population.

(1) The political perceptions of public and private enterprises members and
organizational commitment have significant negative correlation. The related degree in
publicly-owned business is higher than private enterprise. The supervisor behavior
(independent variable) influences political perceptions most. And the affective
commitment (dependent variable) explains most.
(2) The perceptions of organizational politics and job performance for
publicly-owned business members have non-significant negative correlation. The
perceptions of organizational politics and job performance for private enterprise
members have significant negative correlation. The pay and promotion policies influence
most. The contextual performance explains most.
(3) The perceptions of organizational politics and organizational citizenship
behavior for public and private enterprises members have significant negative
correlation. The related degree in private enterprise is higher than publicly-owned
business. The independent variable in publicly-owned business, go along to get ahead

For managing an enterprise, the exterior must face the fast changes of markets, technologies, and customers and the interior must communicate and coordinate among superiors, colleagues, and subordinates. Under the allocation of limited resources, members in organization usually utilize their own power to acquire the extra-benefits for protecting their own or group¡¦s benefits. The frequency and strength of political behavior occurred in the organization depend on the factors such as organizational framework and environment to be varied. Among these factors, the employee mindset is a major problem ¡]Tushman¡A1977¡^.
The study uses Perceptions of Organizational Politics Model developed by Ferris et al.¡]1989¡^as research frame to discuss the effects of perception of organizational politics on job satisfaction, job pressure, Job involvement, and turnover tendency of organizational employees: do Perceptions of Organizational Politics vary in different industries and if there is a difference in the degree of Perception of Organizational Politics of employee¡¦s behavior in different industries.
In the study, Perceptions of Organizational Politics Scale (POPS) totals 26 items which adopt 15 items from POPS of Kacmar & Carlson (1992) plus 11 items out of 31 items of Kacmar & Ferris (1992). After factor analysis, the POPS is divided into four perspectives: ¡§superior behavior¡¨, ¡§go along to get ahead¡¨, ¡§promotion and difference between policy practice and execution ¡¨ and ¡§coworker and clique behavior¡¨.
The objectives of the study are ¡§public and private hospital¡¨, ¡§private high technology industry¡¨, ¡§private traditional manufacturing industry¡¨, ¡§public service industry¡¨, ¡§government agency¡¨ and ¡§public and private school¡¨. A total of 1141 questionnaires were mailed to the firms of industries described above, among the returned, 935 questionnaires were effective. The data were analyzed by Correlation Analysis, Reliability Analysis, Factor analysis, ANOVA , and Regression Analysis.
The results show as the followings:
1. ¡§Sex¡¨, ¡§Age¡¨, ¡§education level¡¨ and ¡§tenure¡¨ of individual variables have no significant difference in Perceptions of Organizational Politics.
2. The results of the whole sample analysis confirm that Perceptions of Organizational Politics in the elementary employees are higher than that in the superiors.
3. In the study of cross-organizational comparison, It is found that in different industries Perceptions of Organizational Politics indeed cause negative effects on job satisfaction and job involvement, which make employees produce job pressure and increase the intention to leave.
4. The degree of Perceptions of Organizational Politics in employees varies in different industries, among surveyed industries, the Perceptions of Organizational Politics in ¡§public and private hospital¡¨ are highest.
5. ¡§Superior behavior¡¨ is the most important reason to cause employees¡¦ job unsatisfaction, job pressure and turnover tendency in different industries.
6. The study shows that ¡§coworker and clique behavior¡¨ has no significant effect on employee¡¦s job satisfaction, job involvement and turn over tendency, however, it is the main source of employee¡¦s job pressure in ¡§private high technology industry ¡¨and ¡§government agency¡¨.
7. ¡§Salary, Promotion and difference between policy practice and execution ¡¨ is the major reason for employees in ¡§private traditional manufacturing industry¡¨ to decease the intention of job involvement. It means that employees in ¡§private traditional manufacturing industry¡¨ than that in other industries care salary, promotion and difference between policy practice and execution.
8. Employees in ¡§public service industry¡¨ and ¡§public and private school¡¨ have higher level of job satisfaction than other surveyed industries.
9. Employees in ¡§public and private hospital¡¨, ¡§private traditional manufacturing industry¡¨ and ¡§private high technology industry¡¨ have higher job pressure than other surveyed industries.
10. Employees in ¡§private high technology industry¡¨, ¡§public and private school¡¨ and ¡§public service industry¡¨ have higher intention of job involvement than other surveyed industries.
11. Employees in ¡§private traditional manufacturing industry¡¨ and ¡§public and private hospital¡¨ have higher turnover tendency than other industries.
The results of the study confirm that Perceptions of Organizational Politics indeed cause negative effects on employee¡¦s job satisfaction and job involvement, bring employees job pressure, result in decrease of job morale, and further increase the intention to leave. At this time, it depends on managers how to develop their own creativity and carry out strategic integration to gather the organizational members together. So a high performance team can be built to increase the competitive ability of the enterprise.
