    Vademecum sul feedback prova a sbrogliare la matassa. Vademecum sul feedback offre lo stato dell’arte della ricerca organizzativa. Sui cui interrogarsi e interrogarsi ancora. Vademecum sul feedback si focalizza sulla gestione e organizzazione delle risorse umane (HRM), nel contesto dei metodi di misurazione delle performance. Perché nel suo contributo l’autrice si rivolge a un pubblico ampio. A tutti coloro che fanno del feedback uno strumento quotidiano. Perché per continuare a dare feedback, occorre anche saper segnare traiettorie future. Se ne consiglia la lettura a chi voglia avere un feedback sulle proprie conoscenze a partire dalle evidenze. Con riflessioni utili a manager e professionisti: per tradurre e digerire il vocabolario della ricerca accademica in azioni operative. Se ne sconsiglia la lettura a chi non ha alcuna matassa da sbrogliare. Ignaro che un buon feedback «è più facile a dirsi che a darsi»

    The present study investigates the extent to which the four dimensions of TOM-VG (goal, leadership, innovation and relation orientation) predict job performance, over and above personality traits. Findings attest to the positive significant correlation between leadership, goal and relation orientation with job performance. Logistic regression attest to the loss of predictive power of goal orientation when variance accounted for by personality traits was ruled out, whereas the regression of leadership and relation orientation remained still significant, over and above the significant proportion of variance accounted for by personality traits

    Commitment Profiles, Job Satisfaction, and Behavioral Outcomes

    No full text
    Past research adopting a configural approach to organisational commitment has yielded support for differentiated profiles (i.e. different combinations of different levels of commitment components) and for their relationship with attitudinal and behavioral outcomes. The present study aimed to: (a) investigate, in an Italian privatised organisation, the emergence of commitment profiles derived from the combination of affective (AC) and continuance (CC) organisational commitment, following Sinclair and colleagues' conceptualisation (2005); and (b) examine whether these profiles differed in absenteeism, as an objective outcome, job satisfaction, and job performance. Results from cluster analysis supported the presence of four groups (Allied, Free Agents, Trapped, and Complacent). The Allied and the Complacent profiles reported higher job satisfaction. Moreover, the Complacent profile displayed the highest job performance and the Allied showed the lowest level of absenteeism; both were significantly different from the Trapped profile. Implications for theory and practice are discussed

    Using the Consequences of COVID-19 (COCO) dataset (quota sample of the adult Italian population, surveyed seven times by email), we analysed the trend of trust in political (political parties, parliament and local administrations), super partes (president of the Republic, judiciary and police) and international (the European Union and the United Nations) institutions from June 2019 to October 2022. Three latent growth curve models showed that trust in political institutions increased between June 2019 and April 2020 and subsequently decreased below the pre-pandemic level. Trust in super partes institutions decreased slightly between June 2019 and April 2020, decreased from April 2020 to April 2022 and increased in the subsequent months. Trust in international institutions declined between June 2019 and April 2020 and then returned to pre-pandemic levels. Three piecewise decompositions showed different trends in trust for non-populist voters, populist voters and non-voters. Strengths, weaknesses and possible developments of the study are discussed

    What buffers right-wing authoritarian responses to threat? An experimental study to test the moderation of meaning

    Full text link
    The literature shows that exposure to societal threat stemming from criminality can elicit an increase in right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) via the mediation of the loss of perceived control. In this study, we investigated whether the perception of meaning can act as a buffering factor for such process, performing an experiment with 316 Italian university students (67.8% women; mean age = 25.81, SD = 9.18). A moderated mediation model showed that the loss of perceived control mediated the relation between societal threat stemming from criminality and RWA, but that the second link was significant only among people low in meaning. Limitations, implications and possible developments of this research are discussed
