Day, David V.; Cross, William E., Jr.; Ringsels, Erika L.; Williams, Tamara L.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v54 n1 p188-95 Feb 1999

This self-categorization was associated with lower job satisfaction, poorer perception of organizational climate, and more negative reactions to diversity issues. (SK)
