This paper posits a model of firm-employee relationship strength that permits the future measurement of an index of the strength of intra-firm relationships between the firm and the employees of that firm. The relationship marketing literature currently provides no clear direction as to how to represent and measure the strength of firm-employee relationships. The proposed model emerges from an examination of previous marketing and non-marketing literature through exploration of possible concepts to represent measuring strong and productive work relationships, focusing on relationship strength as the construct of interest. The review of the literature on the concept of relationship strength results in the development of an index model of firm-employee relationship strength predicted by cooperation, balanced power, communication, attachment, shared goals and values, trust and the absence of damaging conflict. The article concludes with a list of contributions that the model provides to the relationship marketing literature, as well as suggestions for future research. This includes examination of the impact of the relationship that a firm has with employees on external firm relationships, most particularly with customers. 相似文献

In this article, cluster analysis is used to explore the conflicting results reported when the Defining Issues Test is used
to explain moral reasoning ability in business situations. Using a convenience sample, gender, age, work experience, and ethics
training were examined to determine their impact on the level of moral reasoning ability as measured by the Defining Issues
Test. Using the whole sample, a significant difference was found for average P scores reported for males and females, but no significant differences were found based on age, work experience, and ethics
training. However, the sample fell into distinct clusters that identified distinct male and female groupings. While females
naturally fell into two distinct high- and low-moral reasoning ability clusters, male clusters were dominated more by work
experience and ethics training. Clearly there are other factors mitigating the level of moral reasoning ability for males
which require further exploration. The findings suggest that while the P score provides an initial point of comparison, the real benefit to the test is in exploring what is different for males and
females in terms of training needs, and the impact of work experience on the moral reasoning ability, and most importantly,
how to make ethics training enticing. Recommendations for future research are also discussed.

A technique is developed for estimating earnings functions from data in which both wage-earners and self-employed persons are included; it is argued that the return to schooling is overestimated if only wage-earners are in the sample. A procedure for simultaneously imputing labor incomes to the self-employed is also developed and carried out with 1971 data for Bangkok, Thailand. The evidence suggests that ceteris paribus the self-employed have labor earnings at least as high as their wage-earning counterparts. 相似文献
