  • Job Analysis Generalizability Study for the Position of United Methodist Local Pastor
    Job Analysis Generalizability Study for the Position of United Methodist Local Pastor: Focus Group Results Richard P. DeShon, Ph.D. and Abigail Quinn Michigan State University December 15, 2007 Direct correspondence concerning this report to: Richard P. DeShon Department of Psychology Michigan State University East Lansing, MI 48824-1117 517.353.4624 [email protected] Job Analysis 2 Background In July 1999, Robert Kohler, the then chair of the Advisory Committee on Psychological Assessment for the United Methodist Church, contacted me with a request to evaluate the selection criteria used in the ordination process for pastors. At the time, the assessment process was largely based on clinically oriented measures of abnormal personality profiles (e.g., MMPI). The expressed desire was to develop supplementary assessments that would focus on predicting effective performance rather than abnormal behavior. The first stage of this process is an analysis of the “job” performed by pastors to determine the major tasks that make up the job of a UMC pastor and what knowledge, skill, abilities, and personal characteristics contribute to effective performance of those tasks. It was decided that, as an initial step, a small-scale job analysis should be conducted using pastors in the state of Michigan. The study concluded a bit prematurely due to funding limitations. However, a great deal was learned and the final report describing the results of this initial job analysis process was submitted to the committee on February 7, 2003. Current Purpose In February of 2006, the committee, now led by Sharon Rubey, approached me to discuss steps that could be taken to expand the findings from the initial study.

Therefore, a job description is a result of a job analysis. Where the job analysis describes the general requirements of a certain job, the job description will explain in detail the different tasks to accomplish during the day. “The process to make a job description is to have a strong reflection on the available sources of expertise.” (Richard A. Swanson, 2007, 104) The principle of a job description is to identify the essential function of a work. One of the main objectives of a job description is to be used as a tool during the recruiting process.

  • Development of an Affective Construct Job Analysis
    Development of Affect Job Analysis 1 Running Head: DEVELOPMENT OF AN AFFECT ORIENTED JOB ANALYSIS Initial Development and Validation of an Affect Oriented Job Analysis Measure for Use in the Workplace Patrick W. Maloney & Kevin E. Fox Saint Louis University Contact Information: Patrick W. Maloney 221 N. Grand Blvd. Department of Psychology Shannon Hall St. Louis, MO 63103 Phone: 314-977-7299 Fax: 314-977-1014 Email: [email protected] Development of Affect Job Analysis 2 Abstract In recent years, research examining the relationship between affective constructs (ACs) and workplace behaviors and outcomes has greatly increased (e.g., Ilies, Scott, & Judge, 2006; Cropanzano). In response to encouraging findings, many researchers have called for the use of ACs in personnel selection (Beal, Weiss, Barros, & MacDermid, 2005; Morris & Feldman, 1996; Muchinsky, 2000; Rafaeli & Sutton, 1987). However, the current inability of researchers and human resource professionals to easily identify the jobs for which specific ACs are important is a major impediment to their use in organizations. As such, the current study describes the development of an initial version of the Affective Job Analysis (AJA) measure. Drawing on multiple conceptualizations and theories of affect including trait affectivity, emotional intelligence, emotional labor and emotional contagion; a series of affect-related behaviors suitable for job analysis were generated. The 104 items representing 10 constructs were administered to a convenience sample of 287 working adults and university students. Item content of the initial AJA was refined using an iterative approach based on scale development procedures adopted from Jackson’s (1970) construct oriented approach. Final results suggest that the 10 AJA scales assess several distinct but related constructs.

  • 3. Job Analysis and Design
    CHAPTER THREE JOB ANALYSIS AND DESIGN Job Analysis: The This chapter is comprised of the strategies, processes, and tools involved in the analyzing process of examining and designing of a job. Job analysis and design are considered the foundation for all the elements of a job and its worth for use employment-related practices to be developed and implemented. The goal for any type of in all employee-based job analysis is basically the same—to examine a job and its worth in thedistribute context of current HR practices and and projected work needs as determined by the organization. This involves the collecting decisions. of data about the job’s tasks, responsibilities, working conditions, necessary materials/ equipment usage, and the knowledge, skill sets, abilities, andor other qualifications required to competently and consistently perform the job, as well as evaluating these job factors with a standardized weighting scale to determine the appropriate level and compensation range. Yes, some people may consider the job analysis process to be rather unexciting! It can be time-consuming and painstaking work requiring a high degree of detail orientation. However, the information yielded from a job analysis is a big deal when it comes down to human resources (HR) practitioners,post, functional/line managers, and consultants having accurate and current information with which to make sound employment-related decisions. It is my humble opinion that the job analysis process is the most important element to all HR management strategies, from recruitment and job candidate selection all the way through the employee life cycle to performance evaluation, training, and development.

Martinos Imaging Center at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research, MIT Member, MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future Cognitive Science as a New People Science for the Future of Work Frida Polli, Sara Kassir, Jackson Dolphin, Lewis Baker, John Gabrieli “When we measure something, we are forcing an undetermined, undefined world to assume an experimental value. We are not measuring the world, we are creating it.” – Niels Bohr, Danish physicist and winner of the 1922 Nobel Prize in Physics Introduction The notion of studying people in jobs as a science—in fields such as human resource management, people analytics, and industrial-organizational psychology—dates back to at least the early 20th century. In 1919, Yale psychologist Henry Charles Link wrote, “The application of science to the problem of employment is just beginning to receive serious attention,” at last providing an alternative to the “hire and fire” methods of 19th-century employers. A year later, prominent organizational theorists Ordway Teal and Henry C. Metcalf claimed, “The new focus in administration is to be the human element. The new center of attention and solicitude is the individual person, the worker.” The overall conclusion at the time was that various social and psychological factors governed differences in employee productivity and satisfaction.

Purpose of a Job Analysis (aka Practice Analysis) The primary purpose for conducting a job analysis is to define practice of a profession in terms of the actual tasks that new practitioners must be able to perform safely and competently at the time of licensure or certification. The definition, or, description, of practice is typically used to form the foundation of a credentialing (licensing or certification) examination that is fair, job related, and legally defensible. The definition of practice can also provide a solid foundation for developing legislation and policies that affect regulation and educational standards.

  • Job Satisfaction Theories: Traceability to Employee Performance in Organizations
    IOSR Journal of Business and Management (IOSR-JBM) e-ISSN: 2278-487X, p-ISSN: 2319-7668. Volume 16, Issue 5. Ver. I (May. 2014), PP 11-18 www.iosrjournals.org Job satisfaction theories: Traceability to employee performance in organizations 1Stephen I. Dugguh, Ph. D, 2Ayaga, Dennis, Ph. D 1Director, Centre for Entrepreneurship and Service Learning, Federal University, Kashere, Gombe 2Department of Business Management, Benue State University, Makurdi Abstract: Job satisfaction and employee performance has been a topic of research for decades. Whether job satisfaction influences employee satisfaction in organizations remains a crucial issue to managers and psychologists. That is where the problem lies. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to trace the relationship between job satisfaction and employee performance in organizations with particular reference to Nigeria. Related literature on the some theories of job satisfaction such as affective events, two-factor, equity and job characteristics was reviewed and findings from these theories indicate that a number of factors like achievement, recognition, responsibility, pay, work conditions and so on, have positive influence on employee performance in organizations. The paper adds to the theoretical debate on whether job satisfaction impacts positively on employee performance. It concludes that though the concept of job satisfaction is complex, using appropriate variables and mechanisms can go a long way in enhancing employee performance. It recommends that managers should use those factors that impact employee performance to make them happy, better their well being and the environment. It further specifies appropriate mechanisms using a theoretical approach to support empirical approaches which often lack clarity as to why the variables are related.
