Abstract:

Social information processing theory (SIP) has been developed as a communication approach to organizational theory grounded in the Job Characteristics Model (JCM). Innovations in the JCM call for new conceptualizations in terms of how SIP is conceptualized in relation to the JCM. This paper explores new tools in specifying SIP to meet these challenges. In particular, expanding SIP objects of analysis within the JCM model and looking at SIP not only as a complimentary approach but also as a communication level of analysis within models is called for. Further, given demands that JCM specification take into account organizational environments, SIP is used here as a tool to model elements of leadership, structure, and culture. This is done through specification of quality of relational ties in terms of formal authority structures – communication with supervisors vs. peers. Analysis via social network analytic methods and data support conceptual and methodological innovations in SIP.
