  1. NOS 1996-1997 • The 1996-1997 National Organizations Survey: Principal Investigators (PI) • Kalleberg, Arne • Knoke, David • Marsden, Peter • Currently available through ICPSR • Proper citation appears in the handout

  2. Data Preparation • Researchers contract out data collection to Minnesota Center for Survey Research (MCSR) at the University of Minnesota. • MCSR is equipped with CATI and conducted telephone interviews with a representative set of establishments from a national sampling frame. • Knoke, David and Lisa Janoweic-Kurle prepared the dataset in SPSS portable format, which was subsequently released to Michigan ICPSR for public distribution in 2001.

  3. Brief Intro to the 1996-1997 NOS • The dataset consists of 1,002 us work establishments. • Survey questions concentrate on employment contract (permanent versus contingent), job training, staffing methods, internal labor market, bureaucracy versus high performance, employee benefits and incentives, organizational operating environments such as complexity, competition, and institutionalization.

  4. Several Emphasis • Inter-organizational Networks in which researchers employed ego-centered network methodology to investigate how organizations collaborate to provide job training, and contingent employment. • Contingent employment, in which companies outsource job duties to contracting firms. Firms thus form alliance through overlapping outsourcing. • Changing of organizational operating environments and its impacts on organization in-practice.

  5. MCSR Outcomes • Interview results

  6. Differences Between the Two NOSS • Things to discuss • What is the most important differences between the two NOSs? • What are likely research projects you can conduct with the second NOS? • What are likely research projects you can do with the first NOS?

  7. Outcomes • Because NOS2 was only recently publicized, publications using NOS 2 just start to appear. • Knoke and Yang “Fatten Frogs For Snakes: Company Investment in Job Training” • Yang. “Contextual Studies of Company Training Programs” • Both forthcoming in “Research in the Sociology of Work” • Several projects using this dataset is undergoing, thus more publications will appear fairly soon.
