An extension of Lee and Mitchell's unfolding model of voluntary turnover
以84名会计从业者为样本,检验并扩展了李与米切尔的自愿离职展开模型,发现该模型能有效捕捉会计环境中的员工决策过程,并支持了经济后果和性别差异的扩展假设。
Abstract Lee and Mitchell ( 1994 ) proposed a decision process‐based voluntary turnover model, which identifies the psychological processes involved in the decision to quit a job. The current study tests and extends the Lee and Mitchell's ( 1994 ) unfolding model of voluntary turnover using a sample of voluntary ‘quitters’ and ‘stayers’. Survey and interview results from 84 practicing accountants suggest that the Lee and Mitchell's ( 1994 ) model does an excellent job of capturing employee decision process‐data in an accounting environment. Additional extension hypotheses pertaining to economic consequences and gender differences are also proposed and subsequently supported. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
