Abstract: | Rooted in the theory of planned behavior, our empirical reinvestigation of archived union certification election data provided
strong evidence that workgroup solidarity was a significant predictor of individual voting behavior. Specifically, group-level
attitudes toward unions accounted for individual voting behaviors beyond the individual-level attitudes toward unions. This
study offers a meaningful increment to our knowledge as it provides a quantification of the extent that employees are willing
to, and actually, comply with subjective norms. Important practical implications for both unions and employers as well as
directions for future research are discussed. |
