An Examination of Perceived Organizational Support as a Multidimensional Construct in the Context of an Expatriate Assignment
研究将感知组织支持分为适应、职业和财务三个维度，在压力模型中检验它们对外派成功的影响，发现不同维度对成功标准有不同预测作用。
We examined a multidimensional measure of perceived organizational support (adjustment POS, career POS, and financial POS) within an integtrative stress model of expatriate success. Expatriate success was defined in terms of multiple criteria and the predictors included role stressors, situational stressors, supervisor support, and POS. Hypotheses were tested with 230 expatriate–supervisor dyads and S.E.M. analyses. Support was found for a partially mediated model. The results showed that the POS dimensions differentially predicted expatriate success criteria.
