“…"; yes/no) to verify whether participants had read the scenario with sufficient attention and were aware of our manipulations (Stockman et al, 2017), thereby ensuring that the manipulations elicited the desired effect (Evans et al, 2015). In line with other experimental studies (e.g., Barlow et al, 2013;Stockman et al, 2017;Köllner et al, 2018) all respondents who did not answer the questions correctly were removed from the dataset, because it cannot be assumed that the manipulated factor triggered variation in the dependent variable.…”

Offering workplace flexibility to attract new talent has become a strategic issue for many organizations. Workplace flexibility provides employees with the autonomy to choose when and where to perform their work. Even though there is some evidence of its positive influence on organizational attraction, research that differentiates the influence of temporal and spatial flexibility is lacking, leaving their separate and joint effects largely unclear. Furthermore, whether the principle of distribution influences this relationship is also unclear. Drawing on signaling theory, we perform an experimental study that helps to clarify how workplace flexibility influences organizational attraction. We conduct a randomized vignette-based experiment (N=334) that manipulates temporal flexibility, spatial flexibility and equity-based distribution. The results indicate significant main effects for both dimensions of flexibility, with temporal flexibility having a stronger influence. For the combination of temporal and spatial flexibility, we found an additive effect rather than a significant interaction. The experiment did not detect any evidence for a moderating role of equity-based distribution. The paper provides contributions to research and practice. Finally, we discuss our findings with regard to limitations and make suggestions for future research.

“…However, outside of laboratory or vignette studies (e.g. Köllner et al, 2019;Morrison et al, 2015), information about encountered events or potential input is often lacking. This is problematic because in some survey samples, up to 60 % of participants report not encountering relevant events worth sharing or withholding in the past six months (Dilba & Meyer, 2024).…”

Employee voice and silence are reactions to workplace events, but tend to be studied as general behavioral tendencies. We propose conceptualizing voice and silence on the event level and develop an expected utility framework incorporating multiple dimensions of subjective values and situational expectancies. This framework predicts individual event-level voice intentions, information sharing behavior, and the experience of conflicts between voice and silence. Through a vignette study (N = 241) and a second study with recalled events (N = 221), we demonstrate that expected utility scores for voice and silence exert counteracting influences on voice intentions and on sharing information. Our results suggest that event-level voice and silence represent endpoints of a continuum, and that the position on this continuum is driven by situational expected utility assessments. We discuss how the reasons for voice and silence form an amalgam of multiple dimensions and map the road for further research.

Crowdwork is a relatively new form of platformmediated and paid online work that creates different types of relationships between all parties involved. This paper focuses on the crowdworker-requester relationship and investigates how the option of receiving feedback impacts the affective commitment of microworkers. An online vignette experiment (N= 145) on a German crowdworking platform was conducted.We found that the integration of feedback options within the task description influences the affective commitment positively toward the requester as well as the perceived requester attractiveness.
