A 2 × 2 × 2 between-subjects factorial design was used to test the effects of pay transparency, informational justice and distributive justice on pay satisfaction and affective commitment. Case scenarios were developed to manipulate these variables and test main effect and interaction hypotheses. Full-time employees in the United States ( N = 293) were recruited from Amazon’s MTurk. Results showed main effects of pay transparency and distributive justice on both pay satisfaction and affective commitment; an informational justice effect was revealed on affective commitment. Pay transparency had a larger effect on pay satisfaction when distributive justice was low than when it was high. Exploratory analyses revealed an interaction between pay transparency, gender and race on pay satisfaction. This study confirmed positive consequences of pay transparency policies, ...

A four-factor model that posited the involvement of simultaneous contrast, linear effects (assimilation and dissimilation), depth/completion cues, and feature analyzers accounted for a substantial proportion of the variance in judgments of illusory-contour strength. The hierarchical addition of a fifth factor, diffuse illusory contours, significantly improved the overall fit of the model, but added little to the proportion of explained variance. The taxonomic approach adopted provides support for a multiprocess model of illusory-contour perception.

We proposed that the transformational leadership dimensions of Attributed Charisma, Idealized Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual Stimulation, and Individualized Consideration, as well as the transactional leadership dimension of Contingent Reward would be positively associated with subordinate resilience. We also proposed that the transactional leadership dimensions of Management-by-Exception Active and Management-by-Exception Passive and the non-leadership dimension of Laissez-Faire leadership would not be positively associated with subordinate resilience. With the exception of Inspirational Motivation, all hypothesized relationships were supported. A post-hoc analysis of open-ended responses to the question "What helped you to deal with this situation? " indicated that participants who mentioned their leaders as a pos...

This paper presents an activity-based definition of primary care derived from ratings of 59 representative health care activities by a group of state health administrators, a group of local health department directors, and a random sample of primary care physicians practicing in North Carolina. Thirty-one activities received ratings indicating they were considered core primary care services. Examination of differences in ratings among the three groups surveyed suggests that health department directors differ from the other two groups. Consideration of the variances of activity ratings within the groups emphasizes the unique response of the health department directors and identifies activities characterized by considerable disagreement. The study includes information necessary for researchers and practitioners to form an activity-based definition of varying scope. Definitions constructed from this information should be useful in planning the evaluation efforts that involve different groups of providers, since activities provide an objective basis for agreement. Repeating the approach outlined in the paper with other provider groups in other areas of the country should lead to better understanding of intergroup and regional differences in the concept of "primary care". The concept of"primary care" lies at the center of both governmental and private efforts to increase the accessibility of comprehensive health care. But in spite of the number and importance of these efforts, there is little agreement on an operational definition of primary care. For example, "primary care" can refer not only to the personnel delivering the medical care, to different forms of medical care practice, and to medical care activities, but also to ethical considerations and to various attributes of the entire medical care process. Despite the considerable attention given to "primary care", one never knows precisely what the term means. Such confusion has a simultaneous advantage and disadvantage. On one hand it can facilitate agreement among various interest groups by obscuring their basic differences. Since the groups easily agree on the need for primary care, a term having different connotations for different people, the notion provides a mechanism for continuing dialogue among parties with
