Perceptions of Organizational Politics: An Investigation of Antecedents and Consequences
通过组织气候调查数据，研究了组织政治感知的前因（如群体合作、角色清晰度、公平奖励）和后果（如创新感知），发现少数群体身份是唯一相关的个人特征。
Factor analyses of data from an organizational climate survey suggest that organizational politics is an important dimension of peoples’ perceptions of the work environment. These data were used to examine antecedents and consequences of politics perceptions using the framework suggested by Fandt Russ and Fandt (1989). Measures of perceived intergroup cooperation, clarity of roles and responsibilities, and fairness of rewards/recognition were most predictive of politics perceptions. Minority status was the only personal characteristic that predicted politics perceptions. when controlling for its antecedents, perceptions of organizational politics were only related to perceived innovation. Analyses using structural equation modeling indicated that the relationships between politics and its antecedents were not influenced by an overall affective response to the work environment.
