| Abstract: | Willingness to strike of 141 nonprofessional public school employees was examined. A questionnaire asked respondents how many days they would participate in any strikes, regardless of the issue, a strike for a low (10%) wage increase, and a strike for a high (24%) wage increase. Willingness appears to vary substantially among the different strike goals. E.g. militancy is related to striking for a high wage increase, faithful union participation to striking in support of the union, and neither to striking for a low wage increase, suggesting that, not all striking for a low wage increase, suggesting that, not all strikes are sustained by 'militant' workers. |
