Scenario:
Employers seek ways to improve the performance of their employees.
Gardner, Van Dyne, and Pierce (2004) hypothesized that performance is
influenced by organizational self-esteem, defined as an employee’s
evaluation of his or her personal adequacy as an organizational member.
More specifically they hypothesized that the higher one’s
organizational self-esteem, the higher will be one’s job performance.
The data below (representative of the study’s findings) represent the
employees’ job performance level on a scale from 1 (low performance) to 5
(high performance). Determine whether job performance varies as a
function of organizational self-esteem.
