这项工作为我们理解工作中塑造态度和行为的复杂性做出了进一步的贡献。根据从一家英国公司雇用的工人的调查中获得的材料-他们经营的生产系统与连续流化学生产和纱线纺纱大不相同-这本书突出了生产系统的特征,这些特征在影响工作环境中的态度和行为方面至关重要,通过对工匠和半熟练工人的比较,同时也说明了期望差异对工作态度和行为的影响。作者拒绝任何可以被称为技术决定论的方法,但仍然试图表明,研究组织行为的比较方法仍然可以卓有成效地将技术和控制系统作为其出发点,这些系统是为任务的计划和执行而设计的。
This work presents a further contribution to our understanding of the complexities which shape attitudes and behavior at work. Based on material obtained from a survey of workers employed by a single British firm--who operate production systems as widely different as continuous-flow chemical production and yarn spinning--this book highlights features of the production system which are crucial in influencing attitudes and behavior within the work setting and, through a comparison of craftsmen and semi-skilled workers, also illustrates the influence of differences of expectations upon work attitudes and behavior. The authors reject any approach which could be called technologically determinist but nonetheless seek to show that a comparative approach to the study of behavior in organizations may still fruitfully take as its starting point technology and the systems of control which are devised for the planning and execution of the task.
