Abstract

This research validates a scale to measure responsibility-taking behaviors in organizations. Responsibility-taking is defined as the willingness of an individual to accept ownership for the outcomes of a task that they have agreed to perform. Responsibility taking is a highly-desired quality of employees and thus it is contemplated that the current measure will be of interest in both hiring and performance management situations. In this research, we conduct a confirmatory factor analysis into the hypothesized dimensions of responsibility-taking as well as convergent and divergent validation using well-established measures. Results offer strong validation for the responsibility-taking measure.
