Abstract: | Even though organization researchers have developed interactional models to understand and predict behaviour, many have overemphasized either person or situation components, and most have failed to consider the effects that persons have on situations. Criteria are provided for improving interactional models. A model of person-organization fit is developed which satisfies these criteria. Using a Q-sort methodology, individual value profiles are compared to organizational value profiles to determine fit and to predict changes in values, norms and behaviours. |
