Abstract: | The study extends the concept of relational demography by considering both demographic similarities and demographic dissimilarities in supervisor-subordinate dyads. The authors examined the effects of relational demography on both basic task performance and extra-role behaviours of the subordinates. They propose that demographic similarity, which engenders attraction, will be associated with extra-role of behaviour but not with basic task performance. |
