Predicting Occupational Role Choices after Involuntary Job Loss.

Kinicki, Angelo J.

Journal of Vocational Behavior, v35 n2 p204-18 Oct 1989

Analyzed longitudinal data from 126 employees 1 month prior to being permanently displaced. Behavioral choice model significantly predicted behavioral intention to look for job, effort in looking, and actual behavior/role choice 18 months later. Expectancy for obtaining job was inversely related with age, positively related with education, self-esteem, and expectation of losing one's job. (Author/NB)
