| Abstract: | Few topics have resulted in as much theory,empirical study, controversy, and practical applicationas participative decision-making (PDM). Although mostpast empirical research has assumed that thedecision-making process in PDM was unidimensional, this paperexplores a multidimensional view and examines theintegration of degree of participation anddecision-making processes and their relationship withsatisfaction and performance. The results suggest that thedegree of involvement in generating alternatives,planning, and evaluating results are relatedsignificantly to satisfaction and that degree ofinvolvement in generating alternatives and planning arerelated significantly to performance. |
