Traditional research at the individual level concentrates on the relationship among variables. This PDW introduces two potentially new ways to develop and test theories about the phenomenon of individual employees: (1) a person-centered instead of variable-centered approach, and (2) a social relational approach to understand employees in group dynamics. Both approaches may provide us very different perspectives in understanding the effect of individual profiles and interpersonal interactions.

Chair: Rico Lam, University of Macau
Faculty trainers:
Two state-of-the-art analyses are discussed in order to avoid desk rejection and to improve the quality of statistical analyses. The first is the issue of change in temporal studies, especially in micromanagement research. Explanations will be made regarding how to make theoretical contributions above and beyond many current practices of analyzing changes. Methods that can be adopted to examine change will also be shown, including latent growth modeling and latent change score analyses. The second issue is how to conceptualize and report three-way interaction effects in organizational behavior studies. Different models and post-hoc statistical analyses of three-way interaction will be explained and demonstrated. References on these two issues and examples from prior empirical research will be introduced in this PDW.
