195-2. A Longitudinal Study of Faculty Pregnancy Leave Practices: 19952005
Unique factors in the academic setting (e.g., tenure track, the semester time frame, etc.) complicate policies governing pregnancy leave. This paper reports a longitudinal (19952005) case study of faculty pregnancy leave practices in a public southeastern university. The data address options for covering pregnancy leave, the perceived fairness and willingness of department heads to use these options, as well as a comparison of practices across time. The results of this study provide timely and useful data to inform department heads, deans, and faculty members as they determine which options to utilize for class coverage for pregnancy leave.

195-12. Does Autonomy at Work Make You Happy at Home?
The relation between job autonomy and workfamily facilitation (WFF) was assessed using 3 facets of autonomy (work method, work scheduling, and work criteria). Results supported the notion that employees in autonomous jobs experience more WFF. Consistent with workfamily balance theory, autonomy was a stronger antecedent of WFF than workfamily conflict.

195-13. Transitioning Between Work and Family: Why the Commute Matters
We examined whether the interaction between commute length, ones preference for segmenting life roles, and work time mitigates job dissatisfaction and work-to-family conflict. Results suggested that a match between segmentation preference and commute length buffers against decreases in job satisfaction for individuals working longer than average per week.

195-14. Telework and WorkFamily Conflict: The Role of Interruptions and Support
We examined the relationship between telework and workfamily conflict. The mediating effect of interruptions and moderating effect of supervisor support were also examined. Results suggest telework is positively related to workfamily conflict, and interruptions partially mediate this relationship. Supervisor support was not found to moderate the interruptionsconflict relationship.

238-1. Meta-Analysis of Age/Job Performance Relation: Is Job Complexity a Moderator?
We conducted a meta-analysis on age and job performance with job complexity (based on the prevalence of variably mapped tasks/fluid intelligence versus consistently mapped tasks/crystallized intelligence) as a moderator. Results indicate job complexity moderates the relation between age and job performance. We conclude with theoretical and practical implications.

This study looked at the effects of 3rd-party publicity on organizational attraction. The perceived credibility of external sources was examined, along with other external source effects. Source credibility had a greater impact on organizational attraction when the source was internal rather than when the source was external.

245-19. Organizational Characteristics, Goal Orientation, and Organizational Attractiveness: A Fit
Perspective
This study used a PO fit perspective to examine the impact of organizational characteristics (compensation systems, feedback structures, and training opportunities) and goal orientation on applicant attraction. Results supported the role of organizational characteristics in applicant attraction, with substantial impact by compensation system. Results were mixed for goal-orientation interactions.

245-20. A Hierarchical Framing of PersonWork Environment Fit Constructs
We propose a hierarchical framework of the content of fit construct that differentiates between global fit perceptions, midlevel construct (i.e., PO and PJ), and attribute level constructs. We hypothesize that a global fit construct would maximize the association of fit perceptions with important variables. Results provide only mixed support.

245-21. Gaining Precision in Prediction of Job Acceptance
This study examines how well we understand the factors influencing job acceptance decision. The results suggest that predictors of intent of job offer acceptance do not predict actual acceptance very well. A lot of variance in our understanding of job acceptance decision remains unexplained.

245-22. Practitioners Dilemma: Selecting a High Performing and Diverse Workforce?
A Monte Carlo simulation was conducted to explore the tradeoffs in predictive efficiency and adverse impact associated with multiple hurdle selection strategies. The simulation illustrates several significant trends that can help guide practitioners in developing selection systems that more effectively balance the predicted performance and adverse impact goals.

245-23. Assessing the Influence of Preapplication Mentoring on Organizational Attractiveness
In this paper, we examine whether psychosocial and career functions of mentoring RJPs provided to high-potential graduate students impact organizational attraction. We compare face-to-face mentoring to online mentoring. A field study was conducted
(n = 194 graduate students). Results indicate that psychosocial functions and RJPs predict organizational attraction.

245-24. Reactions to a Situational Judgment Test
This study investigated whether job knowledge influences scores on SJTs and applicants reactions to SJTs. Participants were randomly assigned to a job knowledge/no-job-knowledge condition. Results demonstrate no difference in test scores in the 2 conditions, and applicants reacted positively to SJTs.

245-25. A Dynamic Model of Job-Search Behavior
The study examined and extended the self-regulatory model of job search proposed by Kanfer, Wanberg, and Kantrowitz (2001) with a sample of new labor force entrants across 4 waves of data collection. The survival analysis results revealed that time-varying states were better predictors of job-search variables than trait-level antecedents.

245-26. Applicant Reactions to Selection Systems: Discrimination Policies and Biased Tests
Research on selection processes reveals that there are individual differences in applicant reactions to different selection procedures. We used an organizational justice framework to evaluate the extent to which characteristics of the discrimination policies, the selection tools, and the applicants influenced applicants assessments of the fairness of the selection system.

245-27. Explaining Escalation of Commitment: The Integrative Threat-Evaluation Model
The threat-evaluation model posits that threat and cognitive evaluation drive escalation of commitment in organizations. Although threat increases the likelihood of escalation, salient internal causation cues prompt cognitive evaluation, which counteracts the effect of threat. The model advances understanding by integrating explanations of escalation as both rational and rationalizing behavior.

245-28. Testing 1, 2, 3, 4? The Personality of Repeat SAT Test Takers
This study considered the correlates of test retaking. Neuroticism was proposed to relate to retaking the SAT. Results revealed that, accounting for initial SAT score, Neuroticism predicted the number of times an individual took the SAT. Results are discussed in light of the standardized test policy implications of such findings.

245-29. The Influence of g, Education, and PersonVocation Fit on Income
We propose and demonstrate that gs effect on earned income is both simple and complex. Consistent with our hypotheses, results show that
gs direct effect on income, though small, is significant and rigid. However, its indirect effect, which is mediated by achieved education level, is moderated by occupational complexity.

245-30. The Influence of Applicant-Employee Similarity on Perceptions of Organizational
Attractiveness
Measures of personorganization fit typically involve the comparison of individual characteristics with organizational characteristics, failing to recognize fit with current employees as a potential antecedent of organizational attractiveness. In the current study, both objective and subjective measures of applicantemployee fit were found to predict perceptions of organizational attractiveness.
