FREE-RIDERS and TURNOVER Jun Kobayashi (Chicago) Naoko Taniguchi (Teikyo, Michigan) Hirokuni Ooura (Teikyo) August 18, 2004 ASA Mini Conference, SF
2
OVERVIEW Free-riders and Turnover “Free-riding and Mobility” Project Survey on Japanese White-collar workers, N=810 Free-riders and Cooperators in Job Change, Income, Satisfaction
3
QUESTION Effects of FREE-RIDING on of JOB CHANGE??? FR=“Less Efforts than Expected” Cooperator=“Provide Enough Efforts” No Free-riders Assumed Mutual Cooperation, Monitoring
4
LITERATURE Empirical Studies on FR (’92-): No “Job Change” variable Takahashi (1997): Motivated -> LOW Willingness Cooperators -> Job Change↓??? We Challenge this Prediction
5
HYPOTHESES Rational to “Free-ride” and “STAY” Koyama + Ooura + Kobayashi: Cooperators can gain by “EXITING” H1 Cooperators CHANGE Jobs More H2 More WILLING to Change Jobs H3 EARN More H4 More SATISFIED
6
JAPANESE WORKERS 67M Workers (130M) 41% Females 84% Employed Blue 38%, White 49, Service 11 Primary 5%, 2nd 30, Tertiary 65 Focus

SURVEY “Job Change and Work Attitudes” March 2004, in Japan White-collar, Full-time workers Males, Age 30-49 N=810 Self-report, 74 questions, 5 points

SAMPLING On Internet, Marketing company (1) Registered 14,000 -> (2) 1,600 Randomly -> (3) First 810 Receive 250 yens ($2)
11
DEPENDENT VARIABLES Job Change Experience/Willingness Binary Logistic Regressions Covariance Structure Analyses INCOME Increase, SATISFACTION Compare Current and Previous Jobs “5 years ago” if NO Change
12
INDEPENDENT VARIABLES Latent Variables from 5 Point-scales “FREE-RIDING” (α=.51) Do Less than Fair Share Save Efforts if Others Work Hard Not Educate Juniors “PUNITIVE” (α=.53) Hate Betrayers “Eye for Eye” is Reasonable Try to Exclude Lazy Coworkers
13
CONTROL VARIABLES “MOTIVATION” (α=.68) Try to Improve Skills Confident in Ability Long-term Work Plans “COMMITMENT” (α=.66) Loyalty to Organization Solidarity with Coworkers Group Benefits over Personal

24
SUMMARY Free-riding and Job Change Cooperative workers MOVE more Punitive workers WANT to MOVE Cooperators increase INCOME and SATISFACTION than Free-riders
25
THE BIG PICTURE Org. Equilibrium Theory... Participation and Contribution If Rational to EXIT, Why STAY? WHO Free-rides? Compare w/ Simulation, Experiment, Organizational Survey
