摘要
Hierarchical linear modeling was applied to data from 298 school principals and 11,633 teachers to examine the relationships between variables at two levels of analysis. Vancouver and Schmitt (1991) found relationships between individuals' attitudes and their organizational goal congruence. Organizational goal congruence is the agreement between an individual and members of key constituencies within the individual's organization, namely peers and the supervisor. Using a subset of Vancouver and Schmitt's data, we examined the associations of constituency-level organizational goal congruence with individual attitudes and with the strength of the relationship between individual-level organizational goal congruence and attitude. The results confirmed many of the hypotheses and indicated the merit of using multilevel analytic techniques. The discussion focuses on issues related to levels of analysis and the use of hierarchical linear modeling to study organizational goal congruence.
