An Exploratory Analysis of Employee Participation
研究了Edward Lawler提出的员工参与关键因素，发现组织内员工参与程度与参与式管理项目的使用及项目内平均参与度相关，并指出测量问题阻碍了员工参与定义的澄清。
In this study, the key factors in Edward Lawler's conceptualization of employee involvement are examined with respect to program c participative management efforts reported by Fortune 1000 firms. The results support the proposition that the degree of employee involvement existing within an organization is related to both the use of participative management programs and average participation within programs. In addition, the results support the contention that measurement issues continue to hinder efforts to clarify the definitional questions surrounding employee participation.
