  1. Becoming Familiar with Qualitative Research

    (2019). Chapter in Edited book titled Qualitative Techniques for Workplace Data Analysis. (IGI Global, USA).
    Abstract

    Qualitative research is a field of study that deals with exploring, describing, and interpreting the innate quality of entities and social processes. In the recent past, extensive growth in the qualitative field of research has been witnessed, particularly in occupational settings. It is a dynamic and exhilarating area that seeks to explain the research observations by means of insights that are hard to produce with quantitative methods. Most of the work is concerned with developing a theory (i.e., an inductive way to find out new solutions or identify new questions related to social being). In this chapter, the author has targeted the segment which is mostly the students pursuing research courses or conducting empirical work; the faculties and the managers who are handling the diversity of the social beings at their workplaces, whose varied needs are persistently evolving, would be able to understand the notion of technique which is qualitative in nature. Certain studies conducted in the past and present have also been illustrated to maintain the reader’s interest.

  2. Gen Z, the Future Workforce: Confrontation of Expectations, Efforts, and Engagement

    (2020). Chapter in Engaging Diverse Workforce. Apple Academic Press, (Taylor & Francis Group).

    Abstract

    Over the decades scholarly literature in organization studies has witnessed an increasing interest in work engagement and diversity inclusion aspects. In an era of disruption, equipping younger people in a team requires a reflection of the future workforce concerning their attitude at work in order to predict their engagement levels.  This chapter fills in the gap of describing Gen-Z's behavior, qualities, and expectations to work but a considerable light is also pondered upon the amount of effort they are willing to render. This comprehensive preview is expected to enable organizations to understand the new generation and adjust appropriately in a multi-generational workplace context. 
  3. Linking Workplace Incivility and Emotional Exhaustion: A Moderated Mediation Examination
    (2023) South Asian Journal of Human Resources Management,
    Abstract
    Ignorance in cultivating a harmonious work culture and not addressing the negative misconduct at the workplace is highly undesirable for the organizations and taxing for individual and team-level performances. Drawing upon the conservation of resources theory, a moderated mediation framework is hypothesized where workplace incivility predicts emotional exhaustion in employees, and organizational social capital is identified as a critical resource mediating the mechanism. In addition, irresponsible leadership is tested as a boundary condition influencing this relationship. A cross-sectional study using an online questionnaire collected data from a heterogeneous sample of 410 Indian service sector employees providing evidence for the hypothesised relationships. Results confirm that participants experiencing higher levels of incivility reported greater levels of emotional burnout. This outcome is affected by irresponsible leadership such that the higher the levels of irresponsible leadership, the more the social capital is undermined, and emotional exhaustion rises in employees.

  1. Testing the Validity and Reliability of FCV-19 Scale in India: Validation among students in India.

    (2022). IIMS Journal of Management Science, Vol.13 (2) (Sage Publications)

    The unprecedented novel coronavirus crisis is innately stressful and raises concerns for fear and low resilience. Amid lockdown, students witnessed a difficult time surviving fear by staying away from their campuses, friends and coping up. As the fear of COVID-19 pandemic was exclusive, it needed to be treated in a similar way. Earlier studies capturing fear pertaining to past epidemics resorted to different measures, but the unique nature of coronavirus demanded a pertinent instrument to measure it. Thus, Ahorsu et al.(2022, Mental Health and Addiction, 20, 1537–1545) developed a unidimensional brief scale to measure COVID-19 fear responses in the Iranian context. The psychometric properties of the scale have been reported in several other cultural context, but not yet in India. The present study aims to check the validity and reliability of the FCV-19 scale developed by Ahorsu et al.(2022) in the Indian context. The sample comprises 264 university students. The results of the Cronbach’s alpha test demonstrate a good internal consistency of the scale in the Indian context. Further, the discriminant validity of FCV-19S was well supported. A confirmatory factor analysis was also run that shows a moderate fit confirming its univariate structure. Therefore, the findings suggest psychometric robustness of FCV-19S among the Indian population.
