Publication Metadata only “Beware the young doctor and the old barber”: development and validation of a job age-type spectrum(Elsevier, 2021) Reeves, Michael Dennis; Fritzsche, Barbara Ann; Smith, Nicholas Anthony; Ng, Yin Lu; Department of Business Administration; Marcus, Justin; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 124653Taking a worker-centric approach, with evidence based on the experiences of working individuals, the current study examines the age-related stereotypes of jobs, the characteristics of age-stereotyped jobs, and the consequences of occupying them. In Study 1, we utilize samples of working adults from the US, Turkey, and Malaysia to establish validation evidence for a spectrum of 160 jobs (n = 123 raters per job). Study 1 findings indicate that entry-level jobs and jobs requiring manual labor or the use of technology are younger-typed, whereas senior level jobs and jobs requiring large investments in training or education are older-typed. The age-typing of jobs was found to be similar across countries for the vast majority of jobs. We then provide criterion validity evidence in Study 2, by testing the interactive effects of chronological age, job age-type, and sex on psychological age and perceived age and sex discrimination across samples of workers from these same three countries (n = 1469). Results upheld theoretical predictions based upon career timetables theory, prototype matching theory, and intersectional salience of ageism theory. The interactive effects of chronological age and job age-type were stronger for women than for men; the hypothesized patterns of effects were overall consistent for women but not for men.Publication Metadata only A construal level account of the impact of religion and god on prosociality(Sage, 2020) N/A; N/A; Department of Business Administration; Canlı, Zeynep Gürhan; Karataş, Mustafa; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; Graduate School of Business; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/A; 16135This research shows that the two most prevalent religious constructs-God and religion-differentially impact cognition. Activating thoughts about God (vs. religion) induces a relatively more abstract (vs. concrete) mindset (Studies 1a-1c). Consequently, time donation intentions (Study 2) and actual monetary donations (Study 3) after a God (vs. religion) prime increase when people are presented an abstractly (vs. concretely) framed donation appeal. Similarly, people donate more money to distant (vs. close) donation targets, which are construed relatively abstractly (vs. concretely), when a religious speech activates predominantly God-specific (vs. religion-specific) thoughts (Study 4). These effects are mediated by "feeling right" under construal level fit (Study 3). Overall, this research significantly advances extant knowledge on religious cognition and past research on the link between religion and prosociality.Publication Metadata only Clarifying multilevel and temporal influences on successful aging at work: an ecological systems perspective(Cambridge Univ Press, 2020) N/A; Department of Business Administration; Marcus, Justin; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 124653N/APublication Metadata only Context affects the interpretation of low but not high numerical probabilities: a hypothesis testing account of subjective probability(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2013) Brenner, Lyle; Department of Business Administration; Bilgin, Baler; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 108641Low numerical probabilities tend to be directionally ambiguous, meaning they can be interpreted either positively, suggesting the occurrence of the target event, or negatively, suggesting its non-occurrence. High numerical probabilities, however, are typically interpreted positively. We argue that the greater directional ambiguity of low numerical probabilities may make them more susceptible than high probabilities to contextual influences. Results from five experiments supported this premise, with perceived base rate affecting the interpretation of an event's numerical posterior probability more when it was low than high. The effect is consistent with a confirmatory hypothesis testing process, with the relevant perceived base rate suggesting the directional hypothesis which people then test in a confirmatory manner.

We give an overview of the socialization literature and examine established and proposed linkages among four components of newcomer personal capital: human, social, psychological, and cultural capital. Then, we theoretically explore and discuss how the socialization adjustment process, consisting of newcomer experience, role clarity, social acceptance, and self-efficacy, is affected by these types of capital for newcomers, veteran employees, and organizations. We hope that identifying and summarizing these links in one review article will help to advance research in both the capital and organizational socialization literatures.Publication Open Access Editorial: what is wrong with leader emergence?(Frontiers, 2022) Özbilgin, Mustafa F.; Chan, Kim Yin; Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; Aycan, Zeynep; Faculty Member; Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 5798NAPublication Metadata only Effects of study design characteristics on the WTA-WTP disparity: a meta analytical framework(Elsevier, 2005) Öncüler, Ayşe; Department of Business Administration; Sayman, Serdar; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 112222We investigate the effects of certain factors related to study design and elicitation techniques on the WTA-WTP disparity. These factors are: explicit statement of the price, iterative bidding, within/between-subjects nature of the design, and out-of-pocket payments. We adopt a meta analytic approach to generalize from prior studies. This enables us to examine our hypotheses as well as other factors discussed in the literature. Our findings suggest that iterative bidding and within-subjects designs decrease the WTA-WTP disparity, whereas out-of-pocket payments increases the disparity-compared to tax reductions and other indirect payments. The effect of explicitly stating the price of the good to the respondents seems to be insignificant.Publication Metadata only Extracting information from graphics(Lawrence Erlbaum Assoc Publ, 1998) Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; Gülgöz, Sami; Yedekçioğlu, Ömer Asım; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Department of Psychology; Department of Business Administration; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 49200; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Gaining access to intrafirm knowledge: an internal market perspective on knowledge sharing(Taylor & Francis, 2011) Verbeke, Willem; Belschak, Frank D.; Bagozzi, Richard P.; Department of Business Administration; Wuyts, Stefan; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; Graduate School of Business; N/AThis study explores how account managers-employees who operate as entrepreneurial customer boundary spanners-obtain intrafirm knowledge (organizational and expertise knowledge) from diverse colleagues so as to develop tailor-made solutions for their customers. Access to intrafirm knowledge is obtained through two independent knowledge-based exchanges within internal knowledge markets: account managers invest in different activities in order to signal communal and deal-maker reputations. In exchange, colleagues share organizational and expertise knowledge that ultimately contribute to account managers' performance. The types of knowledge shared by colleagues depend on the reputations of account managers.Publication Metadata only Gender diversity and board performance: women's experiences and perspectives(Wiley, 2015) Kakabadse, Nada K.; Figueira, Catarina; Nicolopoulou, Katerina; Yang, Jessica Hong; Kakabadse, Andrew P.; Department of Business Administration; Özbilgin, Mustafa; Other; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/ADespite considerable progress that organizations have made during the past 20 years to increase the representation of women at board level, they still hold few board seats. Drawing on a qualitative study involving 30 companies with women directors in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Ghana, we investigate how the relationship between gender in the boardroom and corporate governance operates. The findings indicate that the presence of a minority of women on the board has an insignificant effect on board performance. Yet the chairperson's role is vital in leading the change for recruiting and evaluating candidates and their commitment to the board with diversity and governance in mind. Our study also sheds light on the multifaceted reasons why women directors appear to be resisting the discourse of gender quotas.
