Unexpected consequences of improving workplace justice: a six-year time series assessment

Article Abstract:

Reported here are the effects of a naturally occurring field experiment in which an intervention to improve a grievance process was introduced and then removed. The experimental design was an interrupted time series with treatment removal and a no-treatment, nonequivalent control group. Its results - more compromise resolutions and a dramatic increase in the number of grievances filed - may be instructive for those who might consider changing workplace justice processes.

Social yet creative: The role of social relationships in facilitating individual creativity

Article Abstract:

The direct and interactive effects of relationship strength, network position, and external ties on individual creative contributions are examined by integrating creativity and social network theories. It is found that when individuals have few ties in and outside of their organization then centrality is more positively associated with creativity and that the combination of centrality and many outside ties is not optimal.
