Overview

Abstract

Volume 24 of Research in Personnel and Human Resources Management contains seven thought-provoking papers. The first two papers (Gully & Phillips; Colquitt, Zapata-Phelan & Roberson) address motivation and justice issues at multiple levels of analysis. The third paper (Miceli & Near) contains a review of the whistle-blowing literature, bringing us up-to-date on theoretical issues pertaining to the whistle-blowing phenomenon. The fourth and fifth papers (Marler & Dulebohn; DeRouin, Fritzsche & Salas) offer thought-provoking ideas and reviews of the use of human resource information systems and learning in e-environments. The final two papers (Klein & Fein; Wheeler, Buckley, Halbesleben, Brouer & Ferris) further advance our knowledge of person–organizational fit through an integration of alternative fit perspectives, and expand our thinking about employee motivation through the proposal of a construct called goal propensity.
