Modelling the perception of conflict in working conditions
Unfavourable working conditions are a relevant and sensitive issue in the
field of economic and social studies. The topic has been deeply investigated,
especially in order to build intrinsic job quality indices. More recently, several
psycho-social risks that negatively impact on workers’ health and well-being,
such as very high work intensity and perception of conflict with personal
values on the job, have become prominent matters of interest. However, very
little is known about the measure of value/beliefs contrasts at work as indicator
of poor working conditions. We discuss a class of statistical models
able to measure the experience of conflict between personal and organizational
ethics in a large sample of respondents. By means of these models,
our proposal enhances the different contributions of subjects’ covariates in
the response pattern. The starting point of the approach is a mixture model
to interpret the ordered level of perception as a blend of real beliefs and
indecision. Those two unobserved components are easily parameterized and
immediately related to subject’ covariates. Empirical evidence is provided
by the 5th European Working Condition Survey carried out by Eurofound in
2010

Dealing with heterogeneity in ordinal responses
In sample surveys where people are asked to express their personal opinions it is conceivable to register a high level of indecision among respondents and this circumstance generates sub-optimal statistical analyses caused by large heterogeneity in the responses. In this paper, we discuss a model belonging to the class of generalized cub models which is worthwhile for this kind of surveys. Then, we examine some real case studies where the observed heterogeneity and the subjects’ indecision can be analyzed with the proposed approach leading to convincing interpretations. A comparison with more consolidated models and some concluding remarks end the paper
