“…Individual worker's intention to leave the agency was measured with a 3-item turnover subscale of the Organizational Withdrawal Scale (OWS; Laczo & Hanisch, 1999) on a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (=strongly disagree) to 5 (=strongly agree). Example item: "How often do you think about resigning from your job?"…”

“…Clearly more research is needed, but the current findings suggest that stereotype threat has a great deal of potential to disrupt attitudes and behavioral intentions that many employers would regard to be of central importance. Negative job attitudes and high turnover intentions incur significant costs to organizations, in financial terms due to reduced productivity and efficiency (e.g., Laczo & Hanisch, 1999), and in indirect ways, such as through the loss of talents and investment spent on women who choose to leave the organization.…”

Three studies investigated antecedents and consequences of stereotype threat for female employees. The results of Studies 1 and 2 suggest that social comparisons with men are associated with feelings of stereotype threat whereas social comparisons with women are not. Stereotype threat, in turn, was associated with conflict surrounding women's identity as female employees and with decreased perceived likelihood of achieving career goals. Study 3 extended these findings by demonstrating that feelings of stereotype threat are also negatively related to workplace attitudes and turnover intentions. Furthermore, the effect of stereotype threat on these job attitudes and intentions was itself mediated by identity conflict and perceived likelihood of achieving career goals. Implications and limitations of these findings are discussed.

“…9 However, there is little organizational behavior research on the comparison of volunteers and employees, except Pearce (1983) and Laczo & Hanisch (1999) that addressed issues of sufficiency-of-justification effects (cf. Staw, 1976;Deci, 1975;Festinger, 1961) and withdrawal behavior, respectively.…”

We propose a new model of knowledge creation in purposeful, loosely-coordinated, distributed systems, as an alternative to a firm-based one. Specifically, using the case of Linux kernel development project, we build a model of community-based, evolutionary knowledge creation to study how thousands of talented volunteers, dispersed across organizational and geographical boundaries, collaborate via the Internet to produce a knowledge-intensive, innovative product of high quality. By comparing and contrasting the Linux model with the traditional/commercial model of software development and firm-based knowledge creation efforts, we show how the proposed model of knowledge creation expands beyond the boundary of the firm. Our model suggests that the product development process can be effectively organized as an evolutionary process of learning driven by criticism and error correction. We conclude by offering some theoretical implications of our community-based model of knowledge creation for the literature of organizational learning, community life, and the uses of knowledge in society.
