The role of leader emotion management in leader–member exchange and follower outcomes (2016, background): “Even though such interpersonal exchanges are ripe with emotions and emotion-related information, theory and research in LMX have adopted a largely cognitive-transactional stance with a few notable exceptions (e.g., Ballinger & Rockmann, 2010; Saavedra & Van Dyne, 1999).”
Once upon a time (2016, background): “Indeed, as Ballinger and Rockmann (2010) argue, some past events can become ‘‘anchors’’ that keep exerting their influence on relationships far into the future.”
A Burden of Responsibility: The Role of Social Approval at the Onset of a Crisis (2014, background): “…a breaking point, compelling evaluators to enact “durable changes to the rules” and to punish a lower-approval organization for its repeated failures (Ballinger & Rockmann, 2010: 374; Braithwaite, 1989; Davidson, Worrell, & Lee, 1994; Fehr & Gächter, 2000; Pfarrer, DeCelles, Smith, & Taylor,…”
Topic Modeling in Management Research: Rendering New Theory from Textual Data (2019, background): “In addition, longitudinal, affect-based topic modeling might enrich studies of performance adjustment (Greve, 2003), anchoring (Ballinger & Rockmann, 2010), and event analysis (Morgeson, Mitchell, & Liu, 2015).”
Altruism in tourism: Social Exchange Theory vs Altruistic Surplus Phenomenon in host volunteering (2017, background): “From a different perspective, Ballinger and Rockmann (2010) refer to altruism as a non-reciprocal form of relationships, whereby the person undertakes an act to the advantage of another person ‘‘without regard for his or her own outcomes” (p. 379).”
Leadership theory and research in the new millennium: Current theoretical trends and changing perspectives (2014, background): “Most extant theories, even transformational leadership, failed to (sufficiently) investigate altruistic leader behaviors (Bass, 1999; Brown, Treviño, & Harrison, 2005; Ciulla, 1998; Yukl, 2008). House and Aditya (1997) suggested that extant theories assumed a hedonistic leader, rather than an altrui”
Eyes Wide Open: Perceived Exploitation and Its Consequences (2019, background): “Practical Implications Ballinger and Rockmann (2010) noted that once negative relationships have been established, they are not easily reversed.”
It Isn’t Always Mutual (2015, background): “Because of this, Ballinger and Rockmann (2010) suggest that in the earliest stages of the relationship, a significant exchange of emotional or instrumental content will function as an anchoring event for trust. Thus, over time, exchanges will not carry the same weight in shaping trust—and by extensi”
Event System Theory: An Event-Oriented Approach to the Organizational Sciences (2015, background): “…reflects an event’s potential to have an influence on the “horizon” (Hoffman & Ocasio, 2001; PirolaMerlo, Härtel, Mann, & Hirst, 2002) and may curtail the attainment of important goals such that the “centrality of the goal at stake in the exchange matters” (Ballinger & Rockmann, 2010: 378).”
The Space Between Us: A Social-Functional Emotions View of Ambivalent and Indifferent Workplace Relationships (2017, background): “They may also fluctuate over the longer term, where a series of interactions may alter the foundational nature of a relationship (Ballinger & Rockmann, 2010).”
