Integrating justice constructs into the turnover process: a test of a referent cognitions model

Article Abstract:

In the model tested, we posit that employees' outcome and supervisor satisfaction result from referent outcomes, justifications, and the likelihood of amelioration. These satisfaction facets are then related to turnover through withdrawal cognitions. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the fit of this model and alternatives. Although the original model had a good fit, a competing model provided a better one, with most hypothesized relationships supported. The implications of accepting the alternative model over the original are discussed. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)

Contextual variables in employee performance-turnover relationships

Article Abstract:

A study of 259 tenure-track social science faculty members at a research university found high performers more likely to leave among tenured members but low performers more likely to leave among untenured members. Contextual issues in the university and the external market were considered in explaining these results. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)
