Discussion: View Thread

Dear fellow colleagues,

I’m trying to find a survey that measures attitude towards time.
Preferably, the survey should contain two aspects of time: a)
transcendental time b) empirical time or immediate time. Any help in
pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.



Best,

George

George,

You may want to take a look at the Zimbardo Time Perspective
Questionnaire:

Zimbardo, P. G., & Boyd, J. N. (1999). Putting time in perspective: A
valid, reliable individual-difference metric. Journal of Personality and
Social Psychology, 77, 1271-1288.

Markus Vodosek

Take a look at Elliott Jaques's, The Form of Time.

Jaques is one of the outstanding theoreticians
linking time and especially his coining of the
time of intention, and the time-span of
discretion as foundational in organization design.

See the Global Organization Design Society's web site at
http://www.globalro.org and read first the FAQ
for a once over and then key word search Ken
Craddock's 1000 page annotated bibliography that
is a free download...and you'll find a lot about
time as a central organizing concept in
management.

Goo luck,

Ken

Get in touch with Allen Bluedorn at the Univ of Missouri. He has done a good book on time
and would probably know of some measures......
