Who Will Be Our Donors of the Future     

《Public Library Quarterly》2013,32(3):35-39

Abstract

Figures recently released indicated that charitable giving in the United States was up more than 13 percent over the previous year. That is the good news. However, as the “baby boomers” approach retirement, what will be the future of fundraising and charitable giving in our country and for our libraries? Recent research is somewhat disquiet-ing-to say the least. The parents of baby boomers are more committed to giving.  相似文献   

The Relationship Between Trait Affect and Job Attitudes in Library Employees     

Miriam L. Matteson  Sean Kennedy 《图书馆管理杂志》2013,53(7):810-822

This research explores the relationship between employees’ disposition and several important job attitudes. Dispositional affect is a personality trait that describes people's emotional responses to situations. This study explored how affective disposition influences the job attitudes of work engagement, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. Data were collected from a sample of librarians, and the results show that affective disposition strongly predicted the three job attitudes in the expected directions. The findings contribute to knowledge of the role of personality in the workplace and provide guidance for library managers on how best to facilitate positive job attitudes.  相似文献   

Encouraging Future Helping Behaviors: The Role of Student-Faculty Relationships in Higher Education Marketing     

《Journal of Marketing for HIGHER EDUCATION》2013,23(1-2):127-157

ABSTRACT

Extant literature on relationship marketing tends to focus on for-profit firms and their relationships with important stakeholders. However, higher education institutions face many of the same intense competitive forces that have made relationship marketing a practical choice for many for-profit firms. Therefore, it is not surprising that many are adopting relationship marketing strategies. In the context of higher education marketing, we examine the nature of the student-faculty relationship development process and its affect on helpfulness, which we define as a “state of mind” conducive to future helping behavior. Drawing on relationship marketing theory and identity theory, we posit that trust, relationship commitment, and identity salience are key mediating variables between three antecedent variables (shared values, communication, and opportunistic behavior) and helpfulness. Our results provide support for the roles hypothesized for trust, relationship commitment, and identity salience.  相似文献   

普通高校体育教师职业生涯发展不同阶段组织承诺与离职意愿关系研究     

罗小兵  王斌  鲁长芬 《北京体育大学学报》2008,31(3):384-386

对湖北、湖南、浙江、江苏等省部分高等院校的280名体育教师的组织承诺,离职意愿及职业生涯发展阶段进行了调查。有效数据被试247名,男性占68%,女性占32%;平均年龄34岁。对有效数据进行多元回归分析,表明普通高校体育教师职业生涯发展的第2阶段(在适应成长阶段),规范承诺能够有效地预测离职意愿;在职业生涯发展的第3阶段(即在快速发展阶段),情感承诺能够有效地预测离职意愿。因此,在体育教师的适应成长阶段提高其规范承诺、在快速发展阶段提高其情感承诺可降低其离职意愿,这将为高校体育院系的有效管理提供一定的依据。  相似文献

Monetary donations to an open source software platform     

Sandeep Krishnamurthy  Arvind K. Tripathi 《Research Policy》2009,38(2):404-414

Online open source software platforms, such as Sourceforge.net, play a vital role in creating an ecosystem that enables the creation and growth of open source projects. However, there is little research exploring the interactions between open source stakeholders and the platform. We believe that the sustainability of the platform crucially depends on financial incentives. While platforms can obtain these incentives through multiple means, in this paper we focus on one form of financial incentives—voluntary monetary donations by open source community members. We report findings from two empirical studies that examine factors that impact donations. Study 1 investigates the factors that cause some community members to donate and not others. We find that the decision to donate is impacted by relational commitment with open source software platform, donation to projects and accepting donations from others. Study 2 examines what drives the level of donation. We find that the length of association with the platform and relational commitment affects donation levels.  相似文献

基于心理意向的目标承诺概念模型扩展     

范新  章凯  袁颖洁 《科学学与科学技术管理》2009,30(6)

目标承诺是目标设置理论提出的重要概念,但对其构成成分的认识仍存在争议.通过引入计划行为理论中的两种心理意向--目标意向和执行意向.来解释目标承诺的结构维度,将其作为目标承诺在个体心理层面的具体表现形式,阐述二者对个体目标追求过程的作用和效果,并最终构建出目标承诺的双意向模型.根据目标承诺的新模型探讨了目标承诺对个体目标达成的作用机理,并系统整合了影响目标承诺的各个因素及其相互关系,为进一步发展激励的目标理论奠定了新的理论基础.  相似文献
