Effect of Unemployment on School Leavers' Self-Esteem Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology 68,3 (September 1995): 177-192. Also: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.2044-8325.1995.tb00580.x/abstract Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: British Psychological Society Keyword(s): Dropouts; Job Satisfaction; Self-Esteem; Unemployment; Unemployment Rate Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Studied the effect of unemployment in a subsample from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth whose self- esteem was measured in 1980 while still in school and again in 1987. Young people who do not go to college after high school face much higher unemployment rates than adults, and their failure to find satisfactory employment may impede the growth of self-esteem at a crucial developmental stage. Unemployment and unsatisfactory employment in 1987 were both negatively related to self-esteem in 1987. All groups showed increases in self-esteem between interviews, but those satisfactorily employed gained most. In a different analysis, the percentage of time unemployed since leaving school was also negatively related to self-esteem. Although percentage of time unemployed did not add any explanatory power to the prediction of 1987 self-esteem by 1987 unemployment, it may operate indirectly on self-esteem via 1987 employment status.

Within-occupation Sources of Variance in Incumbent Perception of Job Complexity Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology 74,1 (March 2001): 95-108. Also: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1348/096317901167253/abstract Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: British Psychological Society Keyword(s): Intelligence; Job Satisfaction; Occupations Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Using data taken from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, conducted with a sample of 12,686 people, this study shows that, when occupational complexity is controlled for, intelligence has a significant positive effect on Incumbent Perception of Job Complexity (IPJC), in contrast to the negative effect it has on job satisfaction. This result is interpreted to imply that a significant portion of the within-occupation variance in IPJC reflects true variance in job complexity. Implications for the measurement of job complexity and for the processes that determine job complexity are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2000 APA, all rights reserved.) |
