Individual performance problems: a diagnostic protocol.

Abstract

This article presents a diagnostic protocol that can help managers assess the causes of an individual subordinate's performance problems. The roles of shared performance expectations, shared perceptions of effectiveness, motivation, and ability and skill are reviewed as potential reasons for poor performance. Situational factors and the nature of a subordinate's work or job are also analyzed. Specific tactics addressing these factors are presented with the intent of improving the subordinate's overall performance.

A meta-analysis of the antecedents and consequences of pay level satisfaction.

This study reports results from a meta-analysis of 28 correlates of pay level satisfaction involving 240 samples from 203 studies conducted over the past 35 years. Results are presented in 4 categories: primary determinants, antecedents, correlates, and outcomes of pay satisfaction. The authors controlled for pay in examining relations between correlates and pay level satisfaction, as suggested by theory and when primary studies were available to do so. The authors found support for many of the relations suggested by a theoretical model and also note some limitations in the research that has tested this model. The authors recommend changes and additions to the model and suggest additional primary research in specific areas.

Physician pay-for-performance. Implementation and research issues.

Recent research underscores the gaps that exist between evidence-based medical practices and the care that many patients actually receive. Recognizing this, large purchasers are experimenting with new reimbursement arrangements called pay-for-performance (P4P) that tie a portion of payments for physician services to measures of quality. Agency theory, from the discipline of economics, provides a perspective on the challenges P4P is likely to encounter. The focus of most P4P initiatives on medical group performance raises additional questions about its potential effectiveness as a catalyst for change.
