Measuring Organizational Performance: Towards Methodological Best Practice (2009, background): “For example, evidence suggests that respondents tend to view themselves positively (Taylor & Brown, 1988), construe external criteria in their favor (Stajkovic & Sommer, 2000), and rely on causal ambiguity to take credit for positive outcomes (Campbell & Sedikides, 1999).”

Implications from self-efficacy and attribution theories for an understanding of undergraduates' motivation in a foreign language course (2008, background): “Also, many attribution studies reported in the past focused either on attributional dimensions solely (e.g., Bond et al., 2001; Stajkovic & Sommer, 2000) or asked students to make attributions for hypothetical success and failure for the same task (e.g., Chase, 2001; Schunk & Gunn, 1986; Shores &…”

Self-Efficacy and Political Skill as Comparative Predictors of Task and Contextual Performance: A Two-Study Constructive Replication (2008, result): “First, although our design does not allow for conclusions about causality, given prior research that demonstrates self-efficacy as a predictor of subsequent performance (eg, Stajkovic & Sommer, 2000 ), it seems reasonable that organizations could enhance self-efficacy beliefs to enhance task perfor”
