MANAGERIALLY PERCEIVED INFLUENCE OVER INTRADEPARTMENTAL DECISIONS
研究了七种权力因素在管理者单独决策和部门内部群体决策中的重要性差异，发现正式权威在单独决策中更重要，而个性在群体决策中更重要，且决策方法显著影响权力因素的相对重要性。
ABSTRACT The perceived importance of seven power factors to two types of intradepartmental decision are examined: those which a manager takes alone and those which are taken in a group composed of departmental members only. the major findings from this examination are that while formal authority is important in the former situation it is of lesser importance in the latter situation; the reverse is true for personality. We conclude that decision method has a pronounced effect upon the relative importance of power factors. Secondary analysis of the data suggests that group composition also has a marked effect but that issue domain has a negligible effect. Nevertheless, managerial expertise remains dominantly important throughout the whole range of decision‐making situations; this finding also concurs with the results from our companion paper (Kenny and Wilson, 1984).
