Opis:
Workplace innovation enables the development and improvement of products, processes and services leading simultaneously to improvement in organisational performance. This study has the purpose of examining the factor structure of workplace innovation. Survey data, extracted from the 2014 APS employee census, comprising 3,125 engineering professionals in the Commonwealth of Australia’s departments were analysed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). EFA returned a two-factor structure explaining 69.1% of the variance of the construct. CFA revealed that a two-factor structure was indicated as a validated model (GFI = 0.98, AGFI = 0.95, RMSEA = 0.08, RMR = 0.02, IFI = 0.98, NFI = 0.98, CFI = 0.98, and TLI = 0.96). Both factors showed good reliability of the scale (Individual creativity: α = 0.83, CR = 0.86, and AVE = 0.62; Team Innovation: α = 0.82, CR = 0.88, and AVE = 0.61). These results confirm that the two factors extracted for characterising workplace innovation included individual creativity and team innovation.

Opis:
Factor analysis is a standard statistical technique for reducing data dimensionality, which is widely used in sociology, psychology, and demography. Also, financial and insurance institutions commonly use such a technique for marketing research. In recent years, factor analysis has been used, at the beginning rather diffidently, to analyse selected problems of business management, e.g. to troubleshoot consumer and company communication. There are some literature reports about the successful use of factor analysis in managing a company area. Nevertheless, the literature seems to lack examples with successful use of the method with a clear explanation of its rather difficult application in the field of competitiveness or potential company boost. The modest popularity of such a powerful technique in this particular field seems to be attributed mainly to the complexity of the method and its requirements concerning the data quantity. Besides, the factor analysis technique has great potential and can be used as an efficient tool to reduce the complexity of observed phenomenon or verify the accuracy of theoretical models. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to present a vast potential of factor analysis (both exploratory and confirmatory) applied to solve various problems in company management, especially related to competitiveness and market success. Two case studies covering the subject of business management are presented to illustrate the benefits of factor analysis application. The exploratory factor analysis is exemplified by the search of factors related to the commercial success of the company, while the confirmatory technique is illustrated by a case study of the intellectual capital of the company and its factors related to competitiveness. The paper also presents the essence of the factor analysis, types of analysis, subsequent procedures, purposes, and its specific features. Finally, the applicability of the factor analysis to solve management issues and possible gain in management are discussed.

Opis:
The situation in Ukraine caused by war since 2014 and the intensification of hostilities from 2022 have led many Ukrainian citizens to emigrate. Living in other countries requires the need to adapt to often different cultural conditions. Intercultural sensitivity is an important dimension of intercultural communication competence that determines if individuals effectively adjust to a new reality. This study aims to adapt the most widely used tool for measuring intercultural sensitivity, the Intercultural Sensitivity Scale (2000) by Chen and Starosta, to Ukrainian conditions. This article comprises a presentation of a Ukrainian version of the questionnaire for measuring cross-cultural sensitivity, along with its psychometric properties. The obtained results showed that Chen and Starosta’s five-factor model of intercultural sensitivity (IS) did not fit the Ukrainian cultural context. A confirmatory factor analysis of the previous adaptations of IS, showed that the best model for the present study was the Serbian model. Therefore, we created a four-factor IS model containing 15 items (α-Cronbach’s 0.841). These factors, along with the items included in the Ukrainian version of the Intercultural Sensitivity Scale, were based on the 24-item Intercultural Sensitivity Scale (ISS) formulated by Chen and Starosta. This study contains a proposal of an alternative model of the Intercultural Sensitivity Scale that is better suited to Ukrainian culture. The questionnaire with a key is attached to the article for other researchers to use in their studies.

Opis:
The aim of the study is to present a model of measuring the quality of market information as a second-order factor model. To receive this model the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used. The rationale for creating the second-order model was high correlation of the four originally assumed factors in the first-order measuremment model as well as substantive reasons. The first-order factors under consideration were reliability, completeness, relevance, and timeliness of information. The study used orginal data of new product projects in which we measured reliability, completeness, usefulness and timeliness of the information available in the new product development. The sample was randomly selected from the national population of high and medium-high technology firms, employing more than 49 people. We received a second-order general factor – quality of the information – that explained the high correlation among the four first-order factors. The resulting model had an acceptable level of data fit and relevant and high factor loadings for both, first and second order models.

The aim of this research is to adapt the Workplace Bullying Scale (Tınaz, Gök & Karatuna, 2013) to Albanian language and to examine its psychometric properties. The research was conducted on 386 person from different sectors of Albania. Results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that Albanian scale yielded 2 factors different from original form because of cultural differences. Internal consistency coefficients are,890 -,801 and split-half test reliability coefficients, 864 -,808. Comfirmatory Factor Analysis results change from,40 to,73. Corrected item-total correlations ranged,339 to,672 and according to t-test results differences between each item’s means of upper 27% and lower 27% points were significant. Thus Workplace Bullying Scale can be use as a valid and reliable instrument in social sciences in Albania.

Opis:
Purpose: To compare two transformational leadership instruments, Bass’s Full Range Leadership Model and its instrument Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire with the Transformational Leadership Scale proposed by Rafferty and Griffin (2004), using empirical evidence from a single sample. Methodology: The sample includes participants from different levels of the Estonian Defence Forces’ military hierarchy (N = 2570). The structures of the Transformational Leadership Scale and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire were examined with exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, while other methods were used to compare the two instruments. Findings: The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire is statistically significantly better at predicting outcome variables like satisfaction with leader, effectiveness, and extra effort; however, the Transformational Leadership Scale did predict outcome variables at a sufficient level. Research & Practical Limitations/Implications: The current research contributes to the validation of the Transformational Leadership Scale proposed by Rafferty and Griffin (2004). The results indicated that the Transformational Leadership Scale is a valuable research tool to study transformational leadership; however, some subscales require further development. Moreover, we may conclude that there is a difference between subsamples – e.g. between commanders and conscripts – that describe outcome variables using the Transformational Leadership Scale as a transformational leadership instrument. Originality/value: There is very limited research that compares different transformational leadership instruments.

In this paper we conduct a three step analysis of business tendency survey data in order to establish (1) common factors driving responses to groups of questions in the business tendency survey conducted among firms in the manufacturing industry in Poland, (2) factors responsible for respondents’ answers regarding assessments (present) and expectations (future), and (3) interrelations between current assessments and expectations. We start by performing a check of the factor structure with multi-group confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) models in order to establish common factors responsible for sets of answers in the area of assessments and expectations, respectively. Then, we proceed with structural equation modeling (SEM) framework in order to define period specific relations between the factors. With the final structural model we show that most answers in the area of current assessments and expectations of companies are in line with the stylised facts. We also demonstrate that the companies’ response pattern did not change during the financial crisis.

Opis:
The area of human resources management is inseparably connected with the employee’s health protection, that is, according to the definition adopted by the WHO, ensuring the state of physical, mental and social well-being. The development of the Occupational Safety and Health management systems, especially the effectiveness of the action taken, building a safety culture, requires involvement of all of the organization members, which is backed by the law and safety standard requirements. Measurement of employee participation in the area of occupational health and safety is a component of the safety climate in a fairly limited scope, which is why the authors developed a model covering the legal and systemic aspects of employee involvement in health and safety at the workplace. The objective of the article is to identify factors which enable evaluation of the involvement level of all of the organization members in OSH with the use of confirmatory factor analysis. The study results, which were obtained using the PAPI method on a group of 195 organization representatives, allowed for the construction of a tool for the measurement of the employee involvement in OSH, characterized by proper and high accuracy and reliability levels. Using the developed tool, proven was the positive correlation between the size of the organization and the employee involvement level in OSH.

Opis:
This study investigated the users’ assessment of affordable housing in developing cities among the residents of Ibadan urban centre. Affordable housing entails users having access to quality housing at reasonable prices, obtaining it, maintaining the ability to meet other basic costs of living and to stay in it without any problem in order to promote good health, accessibility, convenience and environment that is free from crime and violence. The study developed a theoretical model that links users’ assessment to the affordable housing. Questionnaire was developed and administered to 494 residents in the five local government areas within Ibadan. The data was analysed using statistical packages SPSS and AMOS version 22. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis techniques were applied to evaluate the users’ assessment of affordable housing. The structural equation modelling as the validated measuring tools was employed to validate the theoretical model. The finding indicated that detailed examination, assessment and critical reflection of users on their affordable housing is an important step towards designing policies to improve affordable housing that is accessible to users. The authors are of the opinion that strategies through the employment of suitable housing policy are needed to address the challenge of existing affordable housing in developing cities.
W toku badań zbadano ocenę tanich mieszkań w rozwijających się miastach wśród mieszkańców centrum miasta Ibadan. Tanie mieszkalnictwo dotyczy użytkowników mających dostęp do dobrych pod względem jakości mieszkań po rozsądnych cenach, otrzymanie ich, utrzymanie zdolności do pokrycia innych podstawowych kosztów życia i mieszkania bez żadnego problemu w celu promowania dobrego zdrowia, dostępności, wygody i środowiska, bez przestępczości i przemocy. W artykule opracowano model teoretyczny, który łączy ocenę użytkowników z przystępnymi warunkami mieszkaniowymi. Kwestionariusz został opracowany i przekazany 494. mieszkańcom w pięciu samorządowych obszarach w Ibadanie. Dane przeanalizowano za pomocą pakietów statystycznych SPSS i AMOS w wersji 22. Zastosowano analizę czynnikową, aby określić ocenę użytkowników tanich mieszkań. Modelowanie równań strukturalnych jako narzędzia pomiarowe zastosowano do walidacji modelu teoretycznego. Wskazało ono, że szczegółowe badanie, ocena i krytyczne opinie użytkowników na temat ich przystępnych cenowo mieszkań to ważny krok w kierunku opracowania polityki mającej na celu poprawę taniego mieszkalnictwa dostępnego dla użytkowników. Autorzy są zdania, że strategia zastosowania odpowiedniej polityki mieszkaniowej jest potrzebna, aby sprostać wyzwaniu tworzenia zasobu mieszkaniowego po przystępnych cenach w rozwijających się miastach.

Multi-Group Confirmatory Factor Analysis (MGCFA) demonstrated the deficiency of the four original European Commission (EC) items for consumer confidence. Fit of the MGCFA model was unacceptable and without scalar invariance, index comparison between study periods was not permissible. This provided clear motivation for a plausible alternative index specification to comply with requirements for single-dimensionality and meaning invariance throughout the study period. The MGCFA model using a new set of items demonstrated partial metric and partial scalar invariance. Using the structural equation framework, consumer confidence was revealed as strongly interrelated with unemployment forecast and durable goods purchase.

Opis:
The article discusses a model for measuring regional intellectual capital and sets out to verify various indicators recommended in research reports. The authors check the applicability of these indicators in measuring the intellectual capital of Polish provinces. The authors use a conceptual model developed by Węziak (Węziak, 2008) for measuring regional intellectual capital and combine it with the “confirmatory factor analysis” method. The analysis applies to 2005 data for Poland aggregated by province. The article discusses two approaches to measuring Poland’s intellectual capital by province. A simpler approach that limits the number of indicators displayed better statistical properties, the authors say, and individual components of intellectual capital showed the desired correlations. This simpler model was also characterized by greater accuracy, according to the authors, because the evaluated components of intellectual capital as well as the overall value of intellectual capital showed strong correlations with economic growth indicators. This approach made it possible for the authors to identify the key indicators that help measure Poland’s intellectual capital by province and its components, which include human capital, social capital, structural capital, and development capital. The authors note that human capital is strongly linked to the degree of respondents’ satisfaction with their education and fluency in English and the use of the internet and email. Social capital, in turn, is strongly tied to internet access, while development capital depends on per capita spending on research and development.

Opis:
Objectives Reliable and valid instruments are essential for understanding fatigue in occupational settings. This study analyzed the psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Swedish Occupational Fatigue Inventory (SOFI). Material and Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted with 218 workers from an automotive industry involved in assembly tasks for fabrication of mechanical cables. Convergent and discriminant validity, internal consistency reliability and confirmatory factor analysis were performed. Results Results showed adequate fit to data, yielding a 20-item, 5-factor structure (all intercorrelated): Chi²/df (ratio Chi² and degrees of freedom) = 2.530, confirmatory fit index (CFI) = 0.919, goodness of fit index (GFI) = 0.845, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.084. The SOFI presented an adequate internal consistency, with the sub-scales and total scale presenting good reliability values (Cronbach’s α values from 0.742 to 0.903 and 0.943 respectively). Conclusions Findings suggest that the Portuguese version of the SOFI may be a useful tool to assess fatigue and prevent work-related injuries. In future research, other instruments should be used as an external criterion to correlate with the SOFI dimensions. Int J Occup Med Environ Health 2017;30(3):407–417

Opis:
Occupational hardiness is a pattern of attitudes and strategies that stimulates an individual to perceive stressful work situations as controllable, worth dealing with, and contributing to professional development. One of the popular tools in the world to measure this construct is the Occupational Hardiness Questionnaire (OHQ) developed by Moreno-Jiménez et al. It has a three-factor structure, proven construct validity, and good internal consistency. The overarching aim of the study was to prepare a Polish adaptation of the OHQ based on a sample of Polish employees working in health care, education and science, and customer service. The questionnaire-based research was conducted in two stages, with two independent samples. The first study was cross-sectional. Their results were used to estimate the factorial validity, construct validity, and internal consistency of the adapted tool. Participants in the first study were 1,212 employees (originally 1,315) of health care (n = 400), education and science (n = 410), and customer service (n = 400) sectors. The second study, which was longitudinal in nature, included two measurements and was used to estimate test–retest reliability. Of the 400 participants (employees of customer service), 205 completed the questionnaire in two measurements. The Polish version of the OHQ has a three-factor structure, confirmed construct validity and good internal consistency. The Polish version of the OHQ is ideal for scientific research, but can also be used in practice: in career counseling, recruitment, selection, or screening.

Opis:
We present evidence that micro-level household inflation expectations are influenced by consumer confidence. To account for this impact, using multi-group confirmatory factor analysis, we measure the intertemporal consistency of a model comprising both consumer confidence and inflation expectations. We determine that the model exhibits the property of partial measurement invariance. Thus, we are able to account reliably for the influence of consumer confidence on inflation expectations and, simultaneously, to obtain corrected inflation expectations at the household level. It appears that, after correcting for the level of confidence, average inflation expectations at each point in time become significantly more similar to the average inflation expectations of professional forecasters and more correlated with average consumer confidence. Our analysis is based on household survey data from Poland’s State of the Households’ Survey (from 2000Q1 to 2012Q1), which is conducted in line with the European Commission’s methodology.

Opis:
Objectives: The aim of this study was to verify psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Job-related Affective Well-being Scale (JAWS). Specifically, theoretical 4-factor structure (based on the dimensions of pleasure and arousal) and reliability of the original - 20-item JAWS (van Katwyk et al., 2000) and the shortened - 12-item (Schaufeli and Van Rhenen, 2006) versions were tested. Material and Methods: Two independent samples were analyzed (police officers, N = 395, and police recruits, N = 202). The Polish version of the original, 20-item, JAWS was used to measure job-related affective states across the past month (van Katwyk et al., 2000). This version of JAWS includes 2 dimensions: valence and arousal, which allow to assess 4 categories of emotions: low-arousal positive emotions, high-arousal positive emotions, lowarousal negative emotions and high-arousal negative emotions. Results: The results of multidimensional scaling analysis showed that the theoretical circumplex model of emotions underlining JAWS was satisfactorily reproduced. Also the hypothesized 4-factor structure of the Polish version of JAWS was confirmed. The 12-item version had better fit with the data than the original, 20-item, version, but the best fit was obtained for the even shorter, 8-item version. This version emerged from a multidimensional scaling of the 12-item version. Reliabilities of the 20- and 12-item versions were good, with lower values for the 8-item JAWS version. Conclusions: The findings confirmed satisfactory psychometric properties of both Polish versions of the Job-related Affective Well-being Scale. Thus, when both psychometric properties and relevance for cross-cultural comparisons are considered, the 12-item JAWS is recommended as a version of choice.
