This study is concerned with attempting to determine the extent to which consensus exists in the perception of organizational control. One might expect, a priori, a considerable degree of perceptual consensus because a mutual understanding and acceptance of control is a sine qua non of organizational existence. Conversely, one might anticipate the degree of consensus to be affected by factors such as differential patterns of interaction, organizational location of the participant, and unit size. Specifically, our study utilizes a questionnaire to determine participants' perceptions of the distribution of control within their organizational units. The degree of consensus is then related to (a) size of the organizational unit, and (b) hierarchical level of respondents. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1969 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
