- A multi-level investigation of psychological contract breach and organizational identification through the lens of perceived organizational membership: testing a moderated-mediated model (2013, background): “In addition to Masterson and Stamper’s (2003) framework, I also draw on the social identity view of dissonance theory (McKimmie et al., 2003) in order to understand the dynamics of the relationship between psychological contract breach and organizational identification.”
- Attitudes in social context: A social identity perspective (2007, methodology): “Their first experiment (McKimmie et al., 2003) adopted a hypocrisy paradigm (modified from Dickerson, Thibodeau, Aronson, & Miller, 1992) in which all participants were made aware of their hypocritical behaviour— they were made aware of the discrepancy between their attitude towards generosity…”
- When Leaders Fail to “Walk the Talk” (2015, background): “A number of scholars have noted that abusive bosses (Bies, 2001), insulting remarks (Cropanzano & Ambrose, 2001; Miller, 2001), and oppressive and inhumane work environments raise concerns about justice (Bies & Greenberg, 2002).”
- Psychological Pathways to Fraud: Understanding and Preventing Fraud in Organizations (2011, background): “One easy way is to argue that ‘‘everybody does it’’ (Bandura, 1999; Callahan, 2004; McKimmie et al., 2003).”
- Attitudes and persuasion. (2006, unknown): “Matz & Wood (2005) showed that disagreement with group members mediates the effects of dissonance arousal mechanisms, and McKimmie et al. (2003) suggest that group support attenuates dissonance, consistent with social identity–based expectations .”
