Psychological Contracts in the Workplace: Understanding the Ties That Motivate
Abstract
The article discusses aspects of psychological contracts on organizational behavior. Psychological contracts are designed to motivate workers to fulfill commitments made to employers when workers are confident that employers will reciprocate and fulfill their end of the bargain. How an employee interprets a psychological contract is shaped by many sources of information. Human resource practices such as training and performance appraisal processes can signal promised benefits and required contributions. Socialization events, particularly initial assignments to managers and co-workers, can have pervasive effects over time on the beliefs that a worker holds about the employment relationship.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
