The Impact

Drawing from the negative impacts of the perception of organizational politics (POP) on the literature on organizational outcomes, the model proposed in this study examines a nonlinear relationship of POP on job satisfaction. In a similar way, ingratiation as a moderator variable is tested. Based on a survey of 240 state-owned enterprise employees in Indonesia, this study finds that POP exhibits an inverted U-shaped relationship with job satisfaction. Low and high levels of POP have a negative impact on job satisfaction. Nevertheless, our most intriguing finding is that ingratiation behavior not only strengthens POP’s effects on job satisfaction, but can also alter the direction of the relationship in which its shape is represented by a U-shape. This shape indicates that the employees who engage in high levels of ingratiation as a coping mechanism and adaptive strategy tend to do so when they perceive high degrees of POP. These results are then discussed from a cross-cultural perspective as an attempt to explain the legitimacy of ingratiation in Indonesia.

An understanding of politics at workplace is of utmost importance as it is an inherent part of workplace activities. It is evident in processes such as decision making, allocation of resources. This study investigated the effect of perceived organizational politics (POP) on workplace attitudes such as job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover intentions. Further, the paper investigated the role of Leader-Member-Exchange (LMX) on the relationship between perceived organizational politics and workplace attitude. The hypothesized relationship was tested on a sample of 228 employees from Indian IT sector. Factor Analysis on POP suggested that variables can be summarized by two factors; Perceived Politics in organizational management (POP1) and Perceived Politics in co-workers (POP2). The findings suggest that there exists a negative relation between POP and workplace attitude. The results show that incase of the relationship between POP and workplace attitude, the part of organizational politics related to management has shown a significant negative impact on organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and a positive relation to turnover intention. With regard to the role of LMX in the relation between POP and workplace attitudes, results of LMX as a moderator have confirmed to the hypothesis.

Perception Of Organizational Politics

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects trustworthiness can have on the perception of organizational politics and organizational outcomes. Most studies on organizational politics examine the negative effects of organizational politics on organizational outcomes such as organizational commitment. This study focuses on moderators that can decrease these negative effects. Design/methodology/approach – The organization landscape consists of Chinese organizations, with a total of 249 employees who were surveyed in 2009. Multiple and moderated hierarchical regression were used in the analyses. Findings – The results show that trustworthiness moderates the negative effects of organizational politics on job satisfaction, affective commitment and normative commitment. These findings support the importance of combating the negative effects that are in most, if not all, organizations. Originality/value – This study uses as its sample an Asian culture that has been under-represented in organizational politics studies, as the majority of these studies are conducted in North America. Yet, organizational politics likely occurs in organizations worldwide.

The current study was heading for determining the impact of Pakistani university students’ socioeconomic classes on their personality traits. Demographic and personality questionnaires were filled by available university students online.
