Diferentes perfiles de identificación organizacional: influencia sobre el favoritismo endogrupal y las conductas de ciudadanía

Different profiles of organisational identification: Influence on intergroup favouritism and citizenship behaviours

Resumen

El objetivo principal de este trabajo es explorar los procesos de categorización del yo en niveles subordinados y supraordenados en contextos organizacionales y sus antecedentes y resultados actitudinales y conductuales. Dos perfiles diferentes de identificación social en una muestra de profesores de primaria se han propuesto (N = 119), la orientación hacia el subgrupo y la orientación global. Usando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales los resultados muestran que el tamaño del subgrupo, el contacto del subgrupo, la discriminación percibida y la competición entre grupos son predictores relevantes de los perfiles de identificación social. Más aún, la orientación hacia el subgrupo predice el favoritismo endogrupal mientras la orientación global predice las conductas de ciudadanía globales.

Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to explore self categorisation processes at subordinate and super-ordinate levels in organisational contexts, and their antecedents and both attitudinal and behavioural outcomes. Two different profiles of social identification among a sample of primary teachers (N = 119) have been proposed: subgroup orientation and global orientation. Using structural equation modelling, results showed that subgroup size, subgroup contact, perceived discrimination and intragroup competition were relevant predictors of social identification profiles. Moreover, subgroup orientation predicts in-group favouritism while global orientation predicts global citizenship behaviours.
