VanStelle, Sarah E.; Vicars, Sara M.; Harr, Victoria; Miguel, Caio F.; Koerber, Jeana L.; Kazbour, Richard; Austin, John
Journal of Organizational Behavior Management, v32 n2 p93-123 2012
The purpose of this study was to extend into a third decade previous reviews conducted by Balcazar, Shupert, Daniels, Mawhinney, and Hopkins (1989) and Nolan, Jarema, and Austin (1999) of the "Journal of Organizational Behavior Management" ("JOBM"). Every article published in "JOBM" between 1998 and 2009 was objectively reviewed and analyzed for trends and patterns. Based on data collected in the current review it was determined that "JOBM" has demonstrated growth and has continued to meet its first objective: "JOBM" would encourage Organizational Behavior Management researchers to conduct thorough research on organizational problems with the hope that the ensuing data and results would be useful to those individuals resolving organizational concerns. The fulfillment of "JOBM's" second and third objectives were identified as possible areas for improvement. Increases in "organizationally relevant" research and in reliability measures, follow-up data, cost/benefit analyses, and social validity measures, and inclusion of executive-level employee participants are recommended. (Contains 2 tables, 19 figures and 1 footnote.)
