Significant work events and counterproductive work behavior: The role of fairness, emotions, and emotion regulation

Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba Erol

In this diary study, we investigated multi-level predictors of daily counterproductive work behavior (CWB) relying on the theoretical frameworks of affective events theory and the emotion-centered model of CWB. We assessed significant work events, event-based fairness perceptions, negative emotional reactions to work events, and employee CWB over a 10-day period. We tested within-person relations predicting CWB, and cross-level moderating effects of two emotion regulation strategies (suppression and reappraisal). Results from a multi-level path analysis revealed that significant work events had both direct and indirect effects on negative emotional reactions. Further, negative emotional reactions in turn mediated the relationships between significant work events and all forms of daily CWB as well as the relationship between event-based fairness perceptions and daily CWB-O. Results also supported the moderating role of reappraisal emotion regulation strategy on relations between significant work events and negative emotional reactions. Less support, however, was found for the moderating influence of suppression on the link between negative emotional reactions and CWB. Among the broad work event categories we identified, our supplemental analyses revealed that negative work events ...

A systematic review of the reliability of objective structured clinical examination scores

Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba Erol

CONTEXT The objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) is comprised of a series of simulations used to assess the skill of medical practitioners in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. It is often used in high-stakes examinations and therefore it is important to assess its reliability and validity. METHODS The published literature was searched (PsycINFO, PubMed) for OSCE reliability estimates (coefficient alpha and generalisability coefficients) computed either across stations or across items within stations. Coders independently recorded information about each study. A meta-analysis of the available literature was computed and sources of systematic variance in estimates were examined. RESULTS A total of 188 alpha values from 39 studies were coded. The overall (summary) alpha across stations was 0.66 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.62–0.70); the overall alpha within stations across items was 0.78 (95% CI 0.73–0.82). Better than average reliability was associated with a greater number of stations and a higher number of examiners per station. Interpersonal skills were evaluated less reliably across stations and more reliably within stations compared with clinical skills. CONCLUSIONS Overall scores on the OSCE are often not very reliable. It is more difficult to reliably a...

How Prevalent Are the Different Types of Organizational Justice Research?

Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba Erol

In his article, Greenberg (2009) classified justice research into four types. Basic research uncovers the nature and structure of justice; implication research examines relationships of justice with organizationrelevant phenomena; intervention research assesses the efficacy of initiatives designed to cultivate justice; and case study research describes anecdotal applications of justice initiatives. As he noted, the justice literature is predominantly comprised of basic and implication research, while little work has put into practice of the knowledge that has been gained from this research. As a result, very few examples of intervention and case study research exist. The goal of this commentary is to add numbers to Greenberg’s taxonomy of the justice literature in order to determine the current state of intervention research as well as trends in this research. To do so, we used the aforementioned taxonomy to classify justice papers that were published during the past 15 years. Our methods and results are described below.

Personality Attributes as Predictors of Psychological Well-Being for NCOs

Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba Erol

The authors examined the nature of the relationships between job-specific personality dimensions and psychological well-being for noncommissioned officers (NCOs) in the Turkish Armed Forces (TAF). A job-specific personality inventory, comprising measures of 11 personality dimensions was developed for selection purposes. The inventory was administered to a representative sample of 1,428 NCOs along with a general mental health inventory developed by the authors, which consisted of 6 dimensions of psychological well-being. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses suggested existence of a single factor underlying the 6 psychological well-being dimensions, Mental Health, and 2 latent factors underlying the 11 personality dimensions, Military Demeanor and Military Efficacy. The 2 personality constructs explained 91% of the variance in the Mental Health construct. A stepwise regression indicated that beta weights of the personality measures were significant except for military bearing, orderliness, and dependability. Results suggest that job-specific personality attributes were predictive of mental health. Implications of the findings for the selection of NCOs are discussed.

Kamu Kuruluşlarında Yeniden Yapılanma: Bir Norm Kadro Çalışması

Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba Erol

Recently, a call has been made to develop a more systematic approach to human resources management in the public sector. A low-equivalent decision of the Cabinet required all government organizations to do organizational and job analyses and to conduct position norm analyses. To comply with this decision, in many public sector organizations studies that necessitated active participation of industrial and organizational psychologists have been started. The purpose of this study is to describe a position norm analysis study conducted in a public sector organization, which provides technical supervision and guidance to local governments in the establishment of their infrastructure. The techniques used, problems encountered, and solutions developed are discussed along with some critical suggestions for future studies.
