This study examined the relationship between supervisory justice and trust in supervisor and their impacts on extra-role performance. Drawing on fairness heuristic theory, we hypothesized that supervisory interactional justice would significantly affect the two domains of trust in supervisor, namely, reliance and disclosure, which in turn enhance subordinate extra-role performance. We also pred...

Supervisors' perceptions of how fairly they are treated by their own supervisors can influence their subordinates' perceptions, attitudes, and behavior. We present a moderated mediation model that demonstrates how work group structure can enhance or constrain these effects. Results show supervisors' perceptions of the fairness of the interactional treatment they receive relate to their subordin...

A B S T R AC T We proposed that the social exchange relationships individuals form in the workplace would mediate the relation between perceptions of interactional and distributive justice and social loafing. Specifically, we argued that both leader–member exchanges (LMX) and team–member exchanges (TMX) would mediate the relation between interactional justice and social loafing, and that LMX wo...

We define an interactional trap as a situation in an interaction in which a user believes that their objective is not achievable even though it is or, conversely, believes that it is when it is not. Interactional traps are not solely a consequence of computer system design, or just a result of user actions, but arise through the interaction between the agents. We present an interaction framewor...

A complex system is made up of many components with many interactions. So the design of systems such as simulation systems, cooperative systems or assistance systems includes a very accurate modelling of interactional and communicational levels. The agent-based approach provides an adapted abstraction level for this problem. After having studied the organizational context and communicative capa...

Little is currently known about the process of individual adjustment o information technology innovations. This article reports the results of a critical review of the literature, using an interactional psychology framework. In the past, researchers have focused on the limited themes of stress and attitudes. The indicators of individual adjustment emphasized in past research are strain sYmptoms...

Model-driven engineering is at the forefront among recent attempts to information systems development. Models are gradually refined from domain specific descriptions to more concrete models closer to implementation. This is particularly relevant to the model transformation of collaborating business partners down to collaborating (web) services as they share a common interactional perspective. H...

According to situated cognition theory, cognitive accomplishments rely in part on structures and processes outside the individual. This article argues that interactional structures particularly those created through language use can make essential contributions to situated cognition in rational academic discourse. Most cognitive accomplishments rely in part on language, and language in use alwa...

One aspect of the relationship between meaning and interaction is explored here by taking the English particle actually, which is characterized by flexibility of syntactic position, and investigating its use in a range of interactional contexts. Syntactic alternatives in the form of clause-initial or clause-final placement are found to be selected by reference to interactional exigencies. The t...
