The Equity Sensitivity Construct: Potential Implications for Worker Performance
检验了公平敏感性这一新构念,发现“仁慈者”比“公平敏感者”和“特权者”更愿意为较低报酬付出更多努力,对理解员工行为有启示。
This paper presents and empirically tests five hypotheses concerning Equity Sensitivity, a new construct proposed by Huseman, Hatfield, and Miles (1985, 1987). Equity Sensitivity proposes that not all individuals conform to the norm of equity. Huseman, et al. have proposed three Equity Sensitivity groupsBenevolents, Equity Sensitives, and Entitleds. The findings show that Benevolents are inclined to work harder for less pay than Equity Sensitives or Entitleds. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
