Les déterminants psycho-socio-organisationnels de la résistance au changement organisationnel : Cas des fusions-acquisitions dans le secteur des technologies de l’information
Get PDFBetween paradigm and reality, individual’s resistance to change remains an important impediment to the efforts undertaken by different organizations to change. This calls for a better understanding of the motivations and mechanisms that govern it. It is therefore up to us in this study to question the psycho-socio-organizational factors that contribute to this resistance to change and their impact on employees’ attitudes at work.
This study is carried out in the information technology sector in Morocco. As part of a quantitative approach, and using structural equation modeling (SEM), we explored the impact of the psycho-socio-organizational causes of resistance to change on employees' attitudes at work.
The results of this study highlight that a three-dimensional conceptualization of resistance, allowing for ambivalence towards change, better explains employees' reactions to change. Some causes of resistance may have the strongest impact on emotions, others may more directly influence behavior, while others may more influence how employees rationally feel about change. In addition, we validated the mediating role of resistance to change in the dynamics between psycho-socio-organizational factors and employee attitudes within the company. Thus, in this study, affective resistance predicted affective commitment; cognitive resistance predicted intention to leave the organization, and behavioral resistance explained decreased task performance and counterproductive behaviors.
Keywords: resistance to change, organizational commitment, intention to leave, individual performance at work, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).

Paper type: Empirical researchEntre paradigme et réalité, la résistance des individus au changement demeure un facteur déterminant du non-aboutissement des efforts entrepris pour le changement des organisations. Cela interpelle à mieux cerner les motivations et les mécanismes qui la régit. Il nous incombe donc dans ce travail de s'interroger sur les déterminants psycho-socio-organisationnels de la résistance au changement et leurs impacts sur les attitudes des salariés au travail.
Cette étude est menée dans le secteur de technologie de l’information au Maroc. Dans le cadre d’une approche quantitative, et en utilisant la modélisation par équations structurelles (MES), nous avons exploré l’impact des causes psycho-socio-organisationnels de la résistance au changement sur les attitudes des employés au travail.
Les résultats de cette étude soulignent qu’une conceptualisation tridimensionnelle de la résistance, permettant l’ambivalence à l’égard du changement, permet mieux d’expliquer les réactions des employés vis-à-vis le changement. Certaines causes de la résistance peuvent avoir le plus fort impact sur les émotions, d’autres peuvent influencer plus directement les comportements, alors que d’autres peuvent influencer davantage ce que les employés pensent rationnellement du changement. En outre, nous avons validé le rôle médiateur de la résistance au changement dans la dynamique entre les facteurs psycho-socio-organisationnels et les attitudes des employés au sein de l’entreprise. Ainsi, dans cette étude, les sentiments négatifs vis-à-vis le changement ont prédit le désengagement affectif ; les croyances au sujet des obstacles du changement ont prédit l’intention de quitter l’organisation, et la résistance comportementale explique la diminution de la performance de la tâche et les comportements contreproductifs.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
