Meanings and Dimensions of Organizational Justice in China: An Inductive Investigation
采用归纳方法，分析中国情境下组织公正的含义与维度，发现其主观性更强，且受文化价值观和制度环境影响，对管理实践有启示。
ABSTRACT Taking an inductive approach followed by validation techniques, we analyzed the meaning and dimensionality of the organizational justice construct in the People's Republic of China (China). By using qualitative and quantitative methods, we found that organizational justice involves a higher level of subjectivity in the Chinese context. Interpretation and organizational justice judgments depend on the specific situation and social relations involved. The findings revealed similarities with the Western conceptualization with one important exception, suggesting both cultural values and institutional environment shape justice judgments and managerial practices in China. The article concludes with a discussion of the findings and implications for management theory, research, and practice.
