- Abstract
- Integrating a dispositional approach (Oreg, 2003, 2006; Piderit, 2000) into resistance to change, we examine the socio-cognitive roots of this resistance by combining fairness cognitions and personality. Following a governmental reform of the work contract, we conducted a web-based survey with a “snowball” method to recruit 297 participants concerned by this reform. Our results partially confirm Oreg’s results (2006). Dispositional resistance influenced justice perceptions and the attitude of resistance. We also found a link between justice perceptions and the attitude of resistance. Furthermore, our results contribute to Fairness Theory’s development by establishing a link between counterfactuals and the attitude of resistance. Several questions about the emergence of resistance to change also emerge from these results. We conclude by discussing practical and theoretical developments based on the results.
