Abstract: | In two experiments, participants (here as: partcps.) from the United States (U.S.) evaluated recruiting advertisements with simple statements about bonuses, with performance (as: perf.) basis manipulated between-subjects in the 1st experiment and within-subjects in the 2nd. one. Advertising bonuses based on individual perf. caused an organization to be perceived as likely to have a more individualist culture, while bonuses based on team or organizational perf. leading to perceptions of a more collectivist culture. When partcps. were asked to choose btw. hypothetical jobs at organizations with different advertised compensation systems, the relation btw. individual differences and job preference was contingent on their organizational culture perceptions. Contrasting to previous research, there was found no modal preference for individual over collective rewards. |
