| Tiivistelmä: | The effect of a central cultural value, individualism-collectivism, on social idleness is examined in an organizational setting. A study was conducted to test the hypothesis that collectivistic beliefs influence the incidence of social idleness. This phenomenon occurs when individuals reduce their performance when they believe they are performing a task with others. Managerial trainees worked on an in-basket task under conditions of low or high accountability and low or high shared responsibility. The results demonstrate the moderating role of collectivistic beliefs on social idleness and they are discussed in terms of social responsibility and its relation to performance in work groups. |
