Abstract

AbstractThis research investigated causal relationships among situational and dispositional determinants of origin‐pawn (O‐P) feelings and perceptions of task satisfaction and success. Seventy‐seven college students performed a task under one of three conditions—freedom, moderate freedom, or high constraint. Analysis of data through multiple regression and path‐analytic techniques indicated that O‐P feelings are a function of both situation and disposition. While condition and O‐P feelings have direct effects on both success and satisfaction, satisfaction is affected more by the situational element of freedom versus constraint than is success. The path analysis tended to support a previously conceptualized causal model of relationships among the variables.
