“…The relationship between turnover intention and job satisfaction remains one of the most studied areas in organizational psychology literature. (Tschopp, Grote, & Gerber, 2014). Job satisfaction is considered to be a multidimensional construct composed of different facets (Fila, Paik, Griffeth, & Allen, 2014).…”

a b s t r a c tThe new standards of technological and flexible arrangements have made virtual work prevalent for almost everyone in all levels of an organization. Whether in a virtual or traditional setting, current working conditions allow anyone to collaborate, work and interact with others through electronic means of communication, thereby creating a lack of face-to-face contact. Even though the dynamics of virtuality have been widely elaborated at the team level, there are still many unknowns about the impacts of virtuality experienced at an individual level. This paper aims to shed light on the relationship between workplace social isolation, job satisfaction, perceived performance and turnover intention comparing individual responses to team virtuality and task virtuality. Our findings propose that there are statistically significant relations between individual task virtuality, workplace social isolation, satisfaction, perceived performance and turnover intention in organizations. The results also reveal that task virtuality is a better predictor than team virtuality in estimating workplace social isolation and turnover intention. (M.A. Orhan).Technological integration in business has changed workplace dynamics over the last few decades. With the new forms of organizations and sub-units, both jobs and methods of communication have become more dependent on information technology. This shift has resulted in the drastic change of many facets of a variety of jobs http://dx.

“…Price and Mueller (1981) implied that JS indirectly impacts on profitability which is vital for the hospitality industry since it makes a direct control over TI. The results of the longitudinal research made by Tschopp et al (2014) reveals that a higher level of JS was more intensely linked with a reduced level of TI among 255 employees in the German and French-speaking parts of Switzerland.…”

The employees occupying boundary spanning positions are those who play a strategic role between the customer and the company. Especially in the hospitality industry, the boundary spanning employees have significant potential to affect the customer towards establishing long-term business relationships with their organizations which will provide subsequently a result with the enhanced reputation as well as the profitability of the hotel enterprise. The study indicated that employees' level of altruistic behavior might increase related to their levels of affective commitment and job satisfaction. This study uses quantitative research methods, and the study population consists of Turkish employees from the five-star hotels in Ankara, and the study sample involves 412 employees from 4 different hotels.

The western concept and scale of public service motivation (PSM) have recently been generalized to China. We analyze the western-centric PSM scale in the Chinese cultural, historical, and sociopolitical contexts. We find that PSM scale developed in the United States has limited applicability and generalizability in China. Instead, we adopt the career orientation inventory as an alternative to measure Chinese PSM with a sample of 403 government employees in relation to their job and career satisfactions and job involvement. We found that lifestyle, security and stability, technical/ functional competence and service dedication to a cause were dominating motives for Chinese civil servants studied. The results not only partially explained the recent puzzling 'civil servant fever' phenomenon taking place in China, but also demonstrated that not all western developed scales could be directly adopted to the Chinese contexts. We offer important implications and future directions for research on PSM in the Chinese context.
