LMX, Context Perceptions, and Performance: An Uncertainty Management Perspective (2011, background): “This free flow of information is associated with a reduction in the amount of uncertainty experienced by subordinates, as supervisors are more likely to communicate information that defines the roles and expectations that they have for high-quality LMX subordinates (Harris & Kacmar, 2005).”
The emotional implications of organizational politics: A process model (2009, background): “Supporting this perspective, empirical research has provided evidence that there are a number of stress-related outcomes of POP, including job anxiety and burnout (Harris & Kacmar, 2005; Vigoda, 2002).”
Perceived Organizational Politics and Age, Interactive Effects on Job Outcomes (2020, background): “Politics are often discussed as workplace stressors as it increases stress (Harris & Kacmar, 2005).”
Frustration-based outcomes of entitlement and the influence of supervisor communication (2010, background): “By communicating their plans and perspectives, relational communication theory suggests that supervisors can reduce uncertainty and help employees understand what is expected of them (Harris and Kacmar, 2005; Millar and Rogers, 1976).”
Do Social Stressors Impact Everyone Equally? An Examination of the Moderating Impact of Core Self-evaluations (2009, unknown): “However, previous research has established that CMV does not aid in finding interaction effects ( Harris and Kacmar 2005; Wall et al. 1996), thus diminishing the concerns related to our investigation of core self-evaluations as a buffer.”
The Development and Validation of a New Machiavellianism Scale (2009, unknown): “…studies have tied perceptions of politics to a wide variety of undesirable outcomes, including lowered morale and job satisfaction, poorer performance, and increased cynicism and turnover intentions (Davis & Gardner, 2004; Harris & Kacmar, 2005; Rosen, Levy, & Hall, 2006; Valle & Perrewe, 2000).”
