ABSTRACT
An Expert System !odel of Organizational Climate and Performance.
(August 1987)
James Richard Holt, B.S., Utah State University;
M.S., Air Force Institute of Technology
Chairman of Advisory Comnqittee: Dr. James K. Hennigan
Application of computer technology has greatly increased the
manager's ability to make informed decisions about inanimate
resources (e.g., money, materials, equipment, space and time).
However, very little has been done to automate decisions involving
human behavior because of the complexities involved.
This research uses a third generation expert system development
shell to create a prototype management consultant for behavioral
issues. The frame-based, object-oriented expert system represents
individuals and organizations in a decision support system. The
expert system allows managers to make real time inquiries about the
effect of changes in individual attitudes in specific organizations
upon organizational performance.
A survey questionnaire is developed to measure 133 individual
attitudes. Selected organizational behavior and group dynamics
findings are translated into 52 production rules. The rules are
written as methods which are activated by the system following the
structure of current behavioral rodels to predict performance.

SThle systeii is validated by situational analysis. individual
attitudes are adjusted using fuzzy logic algorithms in 18 different

ACKNJOLLEF)GEMENTS
I want to acknowledge the contribution of Grant E. Secrist, Lt.
Col. USAF Ret., in this research. The fervor of his quest for
knowledge, the quality of his research and his dedication to
principle was inspiring. He helped me understand ,:ieaningful
behavior issues and expanded cay research horizon. The ti; ie he
donated from his busy schedule throughout the research and his
cogent fatherly advice are greatly appreciated.
• The mienbers of my graduate comittee have been particularly
p helpful.
James K. llennigan is a terrific coach who won't stani for arty
discouragement. lie knew from the beginning the value of the
consultant when other management and computer specialists said
it could not be done. I appreciated his help even through his
serious illness.
Milden J. Fox has eternal patience. His de.ionstratud technical
writing skill improved the quality of this dissertation.
Alberto Garcia-Diaz' s accuracy and precision hel ped conconitrate
the evaluation and statistical analysis.

Craig McKinnley, from the Forestry Science Departtient of Texas
A&M, was an effective, interested editor who showed me how it
should be done.
Newton Ellis, a latecomer to the connittee, proved to be an
absorbing student of expert systems as well as a solid support
in behavioral areas. His editorial skill is deeply
appreciated.
None of this would have happened without my wife's he!Ip.
Suzanne's strength, tolerance, understanding and willingness to
carry on the domestic duties allowed me to concentrate on this work.
I wint to also thank uncle Sam for his com;ittment to education
as a means for improving the quality of the military of this

about the effect of interpersonal relations, the values of (ood
standards and goals, the importance of the com:iunication system, the
iopact of work surroundings, the hazards of organizational stress
and other environmental factors on individuals. But there is still
considerable ambiguity, uncertainty and even conflict in the study
of behavioral issues. Before human behavior decisions can be
-- automated, several questions must be answered:
What are the important measures of hurmn behavior?
How are they related?
How do they contribute to performance?
How do you deal with ambiguity, uncertainty and co;:iplexity?
How can the results be validated?
Research Purpose
This research addresses the problem~s associatCJ with
automating decisions based on human behavior and creates a prototype
expert system which predicts performance based upon individual
attitudes and organizational climate. The resulting expert system
is a management consultant to help imanagers riake informed decisions
about behavioral issues.
The prototype denonstrates how a third generaion exp)m't systeii

o -g aorganizations. Importdnt behavioral attitudes are mJeasureJ dd

research findings. These preliminary rules predict the contribution
of individual attitudes towards organizational performance.
The consultant is a decision support system wihich cotibinesorganizational theory with current computer technology to provide
advice in areas of irportant management responsibility. The
consultant can evaluate "what-if" options and help managers riake
informed decisions. Use of this type of consultant can identify
organizational problem areas and improve operational perforildnce.

*, RESEARCH BACKGROUND
This section reviews the development of behavior theory and
representative i-Aodels of organizational behavior, group dyria,-.ics and
managelent theory developed by researchers. It also reviews the
history and progress of expert systems within the study of
artificial intelligence and suniiarlzes how knowledge is represented
and used in an expert system.
Behavior Theory
The development of modern behavior theory began witni
formulation of the scientific management approach at the enid of the
nineteenth century. Scientific manager ent presumed there was "one
best way" to do any task. With this philosophy, it was management's
duty to find that best way and train the right person to do the task
(Kast and Rosenzweig, 1974).
The human relations rmove;-ent began edrly in the twentieth
century. Behavior research found that social situations, worker
motivation arid job satisfaction influenced production (Routhlis-
berger and Dickson, 1939). Since those early findings, literally
hundreds of studies nave snown innurerdble interrelitions~iips J,;iong
0 people, attitudes, policies and working conditions (see nedrly 1200
referefices in Secrist, 196)). The enormous nuibe~r of finilings
prompted researchers to group or structure similar findin(is into
0 models of orginizational behavior.

Behavior Models
This section includes several different views of organizational
behavior and performance.
Kast and Rosenzweig. Kast and Rosenzweig (1974) display the
overlapping responsibilities of management as intersecting systems
on a Venn diagram (see Figure 1). Arrows indicate input and output
flows of information, effort and materials across system boundaries.

Katz and Kahn. In the role episode model developed by Kdtz and
Kahn (1966), role expectations are assigned to each position in the
organization (see Figure 3). When a person (a role sender) attempts
to influence another person (focal person), the actions of the
sender describe a "sent role." The focal person's perception of the
sent role is the "received role" and the response to the sent role
is the "role behavior." These interactions are tempered by the
attributes of the two individuals and their interpersonal factors.
The role behavior (or results of the role sender's action) then
contributes to the new organizational situation and affects*5
organizational factors.

Hlackman and Oldham (1990) predicts organizational olotivation (see
Figure -1). Core job characteristics are the pri;.iary influences
(some collectively and soirue independently) of the critical
psychological states which deteriane outcomes. The job
characteristics and psychological states are moderated by the
individual's knowledge of the job and skill, by tie need for
personal growth and advancement and by satisfaction with the work
environment (or context).

Porter and Lawler. The Porter-Lawler iodel of occupationil
iotivation (19613) says the effort an individual exerts is related to
the v(lue of rewards and the perceived probability of ruceivinj tnet
reward given that level of effort (see Figure 5). The individual's
abilities and perceptions contribute along with effort towards
% % %
performance. The intrinsic rewards (those inherent in tile work
itself) and extrinsic rewards (those given in recognition) are
moderated by the perceived ratio of effort spent versus reward
received (equity of rewards). Feedback loops from the level of
performance affects the perceived probability of receiving rewards
1 and the equity of rewards. The value of rewards is moderated by
feedback from the level of satisfaction the individual enjoys.

Secrist. Secrist's total spectrum model of human and

process of translating basic human abilities Into performance as a
pipeline. The flow in the pipeline is dependent upon the job

influenced by the leader-supervisor who amplifies or attenuates the

a well-structured form that can be used to capture individual or
organizational attributes.,lw
Naylor, Prichard and Ilgen. Studies by Naylor, Pritchard and
Ilgen (19,30) went beyond modeling and proposed a theory of behavior
in organizations. A mluch simplified diagram of their theory is
shown in Figure 7. Their theory is based ci the attitudes,
perceptions and efforts of the individual. The environment and
.: individual differences lead to individual perceptions of the work.
Individual perceptions lead to contingencies (the process for
transforming actions into products and outcomes). The effect (or
individual satisfaction) depends upon the outcome and the evaluation

of the outcome. Then, a comparison of the usefulness (utility) of
the products and acts feeds back information to the environment and
perceptions.
Naylor, Pritchard and Ilgen proposed several functional
relationships to explain their theory. The relationship between
individual perceptions and evaluation are examples. The input to
; the Self block of Evaluation depends upon the relative importance of
the Self and Acts blocks of Perception.
-sel f = Msel f-sel f + YactsPacts
The Vdiabie 14 is a weight and the variable P is a perception. The
* inputs to the Evaluation Perceived by Others block are the Product
block and Outcome block of Perceptions.
SEothers = _productsP products + -outcomesPoutcomes
They also postulated creation of nonlinear relationships for many of
the weighting factors such as these samples in Figure 8.
Figures 1 through 7 each contribute to the understanding of
organizational behavior. Figures 3 through 7 identify the
influences on the individual as the principal determinant of
performance. The interactions suggest important relationships which
0 should be maintained in automating human behavior.

Expert Systems Developiient
The study of expert systems is one division in artificial
* intelligence research. Expert systems are computer progrcts which
try to capture the knowledge of experts and use logical applications
of that knowledge to recommend decisions, to make evaluations or to
0 find new knowledge (Hilsson, 1990). lHopefully, the results of an
expert system:i are consistent with those of d real expert. In this

manipulate the facts to learn new facts. The syste;i controller
interprets the intentions of the user and controls the application
of the inference eoigine. An agenda is naintained by tne system
controller to give order and to keep track of necessary tasks. The
inference engine uses rule interpretation to execute actions. In
the process of examining possible truths, the inference engine
creates stacks of requirements which must be fulfilled before
unproven facts or temporary truths can be resolved and either added
-- to the knowledge base or discarded. The inference engine is tne
workhorse of the expert system. It perfor;,is the unification and
resolution refutations procedures necessary to extract answers from
individual facts (Nilsson, 19lO).
Expert systeo.i knowledge representation. There are three iain
ways to represent known facts. The first method uses ordered sets
or lists to store discrete infor.ation (Gensereth and Ginsberg,.r.
1985). A brief example illustrates this representation. John, a
journeym1an, may be able to do his work well and may desire
additional rewards. These facts could be represented as:
ABILITY.TO.DO.UORK (John, Well)
* tEI1BER (John, Journeyinan)
NEEDS.REWARDS (John, High)
The variables ABILITY.TO.DO.WORK, MIEMBER ani NEEDS.REIAR)S 'ire
* 'attribute identifiers. The two elements in parentheses show, who has
this ittribute (in this case John) and the value of the attribute
S -
0'-
-- ."
(Well, Journeyman and High). These lists are a siiple form of
predicate calculus (Nilsson, 1930). The inference engine can find
the value of an attribute for any person by checking every
identifier of the attribute, comparing names of persons and
returning the found value. This method of knowledge representation
is cortion to PROLOG and LISP (Winston dnd Horn, lq-l).
Another way to represent knowledge is through rules
(Hayes-Roth, 1985). Rules evaluate the knowledge base and create
new truths or new knowledge. Creating new information with rules
when it is needed reduces the amount of knowledge which needs to be
stored. For example, all journeymen are skilled crafts:ien. A
corresponding rule would be:
IF ;IEMBER (X, Journeyoan)
THEN ABILITY.TO.DO.ORK (X, Well)
This rule says, if something (X) is a journeyman, then create a new
fact that something (same X) is able to do work Well. The rule
eliminates the need to have ABILITY.TO.DO.WORK (Person, lltll) for
every person who can be shown to be a journeyman. The process of
applying rules and finding out the possible outcomes is called
* forward chaining. The inference engine can also find out if d
person is able to do work well by looking for fdcts or other rules
which prove that the person is a journeyman. This process is called
* backward chaining (11ilsson, 1930).
-\ The third way of storing information is ds a unit (so:iti,,ies
called an object or frame). This way, relative information is
p.J%
grouped together as a record in slots of the unit. Continuing the
example above, a unit called John could be shown as:
Unit name: John
-------- ------ ------- ---------------- - -- -- -- -- --
Slot name: ABILITY.TO.DO.WQRK
Slot value: Well1
*-Slot name: HEEDS.REWARDS
$5.Slot value: High
The inference engine can find the value of an attribute for any
isperson by checking all units, coiiparing names and returning th"
value (see Fikes and Kehler, 19835 for a good summary of unit
A systems).
The use of units allows more structure dnd control over the
knowledge base. Structuring the knowledge base can allow units to
inherit slots and slot values from other units -,,ch as in Figure 10.

When an object is a member of a class of objects, much is known
about the object without explicit explanation (Stefik and Bobrow,
1986). An object in the class of automobiles, for instance,
normally has four wheels, some type of engine, a weight, a general
size, a top speed and other limits on what can be done with the
object. This method of structuring the knowledge base helps store
some of the knowledge in the structure itself. In Figure 10, the
membership of John in Journeyman is shown by the dotted line. With
this structure, the unit John would appear:
. Unit name: John
Member of: Journeyman
Slot name: ABILITY.TO.DO.WORK
Slot value: Well
Slot name: NEEDS.REWARDS

* John inherits all the slots that People has through membership in

Expert systemi history. In early first generation expert
systems such as DENDRAL which automates the determination of
20
9, molecular structure of chemicals from empirical formulas, developers
used predominantly predicate calculus to represent knowledge. They
had to create their own inference engine to work specifically with
*their system. Second generation expert systems such as MYCIN which
performs infectious disease consultations, were developed around
domain-independent modules to interpret rules and acquire new
knowledge. The independent modules give limited flexibility in
applying the inference engine to other problems. Third generation
expert systems are being built on new, comnercially available expert
system tools such as KEETM,* Knowledge CraftTM and s.ITH which
* provide most of the architecture needed for control and
imiplementation of knowledge based syste, s. These state-of-the-art
tools allow the developer to use rule based, frame based and/or
logic based methodologies in the expert systeml without concern for
the inner working of the inference engine, execution methods and
. maintenance of possible facts. It is now possible to create
prototype systems in weeks where before it took years (Friedland,
.:. 1935).

RESEARCH DESIGN
The research design and development of the prototype expert
system are the main contributions of this research. This chapter
describes selection of a behavioral model, identification and
transformation of behavior rules, choice of system variables and
development of a survey questionnaire to measure the variables.
Also, the knowledge base representation (both rules and facts) is
explained with the system controlling functions. The method of
validating the prototype is presented as well.
Behavioral Model Selection
Model requirements. A good behavioral model is needed to give
application and direction to the expert system. The model iust be
complex enough to capture the requisite variety of human behavior
and yet be simple in its structure and form (Mason and Mitsoff,
1981). Its components must be ieasurable for application and must
be flexible to allow variations for different usage. For this
prototype research, the riodel needs a scope sufficient to validate
the concept of an automated management consultant and yet be small
enough to be achievable. The hodels in Figures 1, 4, 5, 6 and 7
display appropriately corplex relationships. Those in Figures 1, 2,
4 and 6 have somewhat simplified structures. The ,iodels in Figures
• .
- ,.r--......,,...........•...
0
2, 4, 5 and 6 have more easily measurable components. And, models
Figures 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7 give flexibility in their application.
Model selection. The Secrist total spectrum model of human and
organizational effectiveness gives the best combination of factors.
However, the scope of the model is too large. Figure 11 shows a
model of reduced scope which appears reasonable for this research.
The macro environment in Figure 6 is a fairly constant influence
relating primarily geopolitical and cultural variations. The
elements of organization context are related to the firm's
terhnology, structure, policies, leadership and major objectives.
-. These influences are generally stable and can be eliminated for this
prototype work without jeopardizing validity.
Behavior Rules
Known findings. As part of his work in developing the total
spectrum model, Secrist (1981) compiled a large number of research
findings to substantiate his views. Findings identify interrela-
-" tionships among the organizational environment, worker needs and
* desires, working conditions, individual attitude and other
attributes describing the work force. Some findings relating to
management style, organizational policy, individual volition and
* cultural or ideological influence were generally eliminated from
consideration in the reduced model.

Researchers have published very consistent findings on many
elements contained in the reduced model, particularly in the areas
of stress, communications, individual versus organizational control
and job characteristics. After study of over 300 research reports
summarized in Secrist's work (1981) or other sources, fifty-one
preliminary findings were selected which combine and represent the
major, consistent and replicatable research relating organizational
climate to performance. These few rules do not attempt to capture
the total knowledge of the findings. They are a cross sectional
sampling to show the concept of rule transformation from behavioral
* findings. A short phrase describing each named rule and its source
is included in Appendix 1.
The behavior rules represent expert knowledge of organizational
behavior, group dynamics and psychological behavior. They form the
key relationships at the heart of the expert system. The behavior
rules evaluate individual attitudes and climate variables and make
corresponding contributions to the performance and satisfaction
measures. Figure 12 illustrates this central translationing role
between attitudes and performance.
Sample rules. Several findings consider the contribution of
autonomy to performance in organizations that need creativity with
high correlation coefficients (r) and low probability of error (p).
Patchen's (1970) large scale multivariate investigation of 800
nonsupervisory engineering and power plant employees found "that
increased employee control over work methods resulted in greater Job

interest (r = .42, p < .01), higher interest in work innovation (r =
.31, p < .01), more pride in job accomplishment (r = .55, p < .01),
and fewer symptoms of stress (r = .37, p .01)" (Secrist, 1991).
Transforming Patchen's findings into a rule required establishing
measures of employee control, job interest, work innovation, pride
" in accomplishment and stress. The variables selected to represent
these measures are: IND.ORG.CONTROL, a climate variable
representing individual versus organizational control; SKILL.VARIETY
and INDEPENDENT.THOUGHT, individual attitudes concerning the job
evaluation and the need for creativity; ACHIEVEMENT, EFFICIENCY,
* EXCELLENCE, JOB.SATISFACTION, NEED.FULFILLMENT and REALIZATION.OF..w,
POTENTIAL, performance measures. (The selection of variables and
their use is discussed at length in the next section.) Paraphrasing
Patcher's findings into two general statements which include the
transformation variables gives two rules:
Autonomy Creativity
Where employees have control over work methods
(IND.ORG.CONTROL) and while there is a need for creativity
(SKILL.VARIETY, INDEPENDENT.THOUGHT), there is increased0innovation (EXCELLENCE, REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL).
Autonomy Pride
* Self-control (IND.ORG.CONTROL) is related to greater job
interest (ACHIEVEMENT, EFFICIENCY, JOB.SATISFACTION) and more
pride (NEED.FULFILLMENT).
0

27
Transforming these paraphrased statements further into if-then rules
using just the variables gives:
Autonomy Creativity
IF (IND.ORG.CONTROL is positive)
and (The average of SKILL.VARIETY and
INDEPENDENT.THOUGHT is positive)
THEN (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
contributing to EXCELLENCE)
and (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
contributing to REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL)
Autonomy Pride
IF (IND.ORG.CONTROL is positive)
THEN (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
contributing to ACHIEVEMENT)
and (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
contributing to EFFICIENCY)
and (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
- contributing to JOB.SATISFACTION)
and (Add IND.ORG.CONTROL to the list of factors
contributing to NEED.FULFILLMENT)
In these two rules, positive means a positive contribution to some
desirable result. If IND.ORG.CONTROL was not positive (neutral or
negative) then no contribution is made by IND.ORG.CONTROL in either
of the rules.

At this point it is appropriate to discuss how rules are used
in expert systems. Rules are generally used to find truth. To
illustrate this consider three rules.
If A then B Rule 1
If B then C Rule 2
If A then C Rule 3
The application of Rules 1 and 2 gives the same result as Rule 3.
(This is called resolution in predicate calculus.) Suppose in an
expert system, Rule 1 and Rule 2 were applied by the inference
inference engine would throw out Rule 3 because it is redundant.
The relationship between A and C had already been shown.
The inference engine's ability to eliminate redundancy greatly
speeds up the computation process and eliminates wasted efforts.
However, this ability is not always desirable. The behavior rules,
for example, measure contributions to performance. If the behavior
rules are used in the standard way, the contributions would be
distorted. If two rules contributed the same amount, the inference
engine would assume one was redundant and throw it out. Because of
* this, the behavior rules were transformed into applications nethods.
The use of methods allows specific control over the application of
the rule. Methods will be discussed further in following sections.
More examples. Two more rules dealing with the contribution of
cohesiveness are good examples of how rules can chain together.

Both Lfkert (1961) and McGregor (1960) found that groups which
have a highly participative environment (EFFECTIVE.PARTICIPATION, an
intermediate variable); clear, understandable goals (STANDARD.GOALS,
a climate variable); frank, open communications (COMM.EFFECTIVENESS,
vi a climate variable); have an integrated reward system (REWARD.
SYSTEM, a climate variable); share mutual influence (LACK.OF.
INFLUENCE, a negative individual attitude) and are willing to deal
with conflict (STRESS) are highly cohesive (COHESIVE, an intermedi-
ate variable). This is called the Cohesive Goals rule. It creates
a measure of cohesiveness from individual, intermediate and climate
variables.
In a separate finding, Seashore (1951) found that highly
cohesive groups (COHESIVE) are above average in performance
(ACHIEVEMENT, EFFECTIVENESS, EFFICIENCY and REALIZATION.OF.
POTENTIAL, performance measures) when they accept organizational
goals (STANDARDS.GOALS, a climate variable). This rule is called
the Cohesive Accept rule. Applying these two rules together through
the intermediate variable COHESIVE contributes positively to
performance measures in proportion to the levels of participation,
acceptance of goals, coninunication effectiveness, and lack of
stress.
Some of the findings are better transformed by splitting them
- into multiple riles (like Autonomy Creativity and Autonomy Pride
e-, discussed previously). Other findings tend to overlap. Redundant

findings were eliminated but overlapping findings which contributed
depth to the rule base by bringing additional variables into play
were included.
Questi onnai re
Variables. The preceding discussion of behavior rules
introduced, by necessity, variables to measure attributes. For the
rules to evaluate a situation, some measure of the situation is
needed.
The process of transforming the behavioral findings into rules
for the expert system identified nearly a thousand separate
variables. By carefully combining synonyms, grouping attributes,
using negation and stretching meanings a little, the number of
variables was reduced to about 150. As much as possible, known
measurable psychometric measures were used for the variables (see
next section). The variables fell into three groups: basic
measures of individual attitude, intermediate variables created by
combined attitudes or as a result of chaining rules, and performance
measures. The basic attitude measures are categorized by the
climate they help describe and are shown in Appendices 2 through 11.
The intermediate variables and their derivations are in Appendix 12.
Appendix 13 lists the performance measures and the words describing
performance that are attributed to each measure. (Note: some words
contribute to more than one measure like the word performance in the
Cohesive Goals rule discussed earlier.)

%- %

The variables used to measure basic human attitudes were given
short names for use in the computer. The short name does not always
give the full meaning of the attitude being measured. The
appearance of the short names sometimes causes a transformed rule to
appear different than the original finding. A review of the metric
used to measure the attitude clarifies the variable naitte.
(Questionnaire metrics are discussed in the next section.) The
rules are very representative of the findings. This is a critical
.- factor since the strength of a rule is in the correct transformation
of the behavioral research behind the rule and in the accuracy of
the metric assigning values to the variables.
Measuring individual attitudes. Many different sources were
used to find valid, consistent psychometric measures of the needed
attitude variables. Secrist, McNee and Paden (19i11) perfori.led
extensive internal consistency analysis and factor analysis in
developing ileasures to describe leader-supervisor competence,
organizational versus individual control, organizational stress,
interpersonal relations and the reward system clidmate variables.
The Hackman-Oldham job diagnostic survey was used to measure job
characteristics. Findings by other researchers were used to form
new measures for communications effectiveness, standards and goals
and physical environiment climate variables.
A survey questionnaire was developed combining the different
m.trics to measure in(lividual attitudes. The questionnaire nkes a
statetient (taken, as much as possible, directly from the source of
............-.--.-. ...- -4 -% ."

the variable) referring to some attitude or attribute of the work
place. The respondents indicated agreement or disagreement along a
Likert scale. A complete listing of the questionnaire statements,
their variable names and sources categorized by climate variable is
included in Appendices 2 through 11. The response alternatives were
phrased to be at least one standard deviation apart (Dyer, Matthews,
Wright, and Yudowitch, 1995). The values of the responses are
scaled to fall within the range minus one to plus one. With this
scaling, zero is neutral and positive values reflect a positive
contribution to some desirable state (except for stress variables
*. which are consistently used as negative measures).
The variables were grouped according to the framework of the
selected model in Figure 11. Each group of variables is combined
together to form the climate measure for that group (e.g., in
Appendix 2, COfI,'.EFFECTIVENESS is equal to the average of
ACCURATE.COMM1, ANSWERS.AVAIL, ... , SATISFIED.COMM). Speaking of his
measures, Secrist explains, responses to individual statements are.,*
only valid for measuring the attitude or attribute implied by the'-..
statement. They are not, alone, good predictions of the climate
* measures. However, taken as a group, the average response is an
internally consistent, highly reliable predictive metric of
organizational climate (Secrist, McNee and Paden, 1991; G.E.p a.
* Secrist, personal commurnication, May 21, 19, 7).

Computer Model
KEE (Knowledge Engineering Environment) was selected as the
expert system development shell for this prototype system. KEE has
an exceptionally easy user interface for creating precisely
structured knowledge representations. It is a frame based platform
for object oriented programing as well as the use of production
rules. Its flexible inference engine can handle forward and
backward chaining with various selection parameters. Many built-in
procedures are available to invoke active values or image displays.
LISP procedures are easily attached as rlethod slots to any frame to
handle special problems. The shell was implemented on a Texas
Instruments ExplorerTM.*
Knowledge representation. Knowledge about individuals and
organizations was grouped into classes. Each climate class contains
slots for each attribute in the class. Interconnccting classes with
class links enables subclasses to inherit slots from prior classes.
Figure 13 displays the units which make up the subclass of
Individuals. The class of Stress is expanded to show the slot namies
4 which correspond to attitude variables. John is a member of the
Individuals class and inherits all the slots of Individuals with
their default values. Appendix 15 lists the computer code of those
classes which contribute to the Individuals class. The numaeric
value entered in a slot represents the person's attitude dbout that

Application methods. The behavior rules represent tie findings
of research experts transformed into d form the expert systeui can
r%'Od
understand. In this prototype management consultant, the rules are
formulated as applications methods.
A i aethod is a self-contained procedure which causes things to
happen when the method is activated. As an example, there is a
method slot in the Ind.Climate.Var.Calc unit called CO[1M.EFFECTIVE-
NESS.CALC. This method is inherited by every person who is a miember
of the class of Individuals. To activate the method, a message is
sent by the system controller to the person and the method
COM.EFFECTIVENESS.CALC is activated. COMM.EFFECTIVENESS.CALC
averages the values of all attitudes grouped under the communication
effectiveness climate measure and puts tile average in the person's
COMI4.EFFECTIVENESS slot as new knowledge. A computer code listing
of all the inethods used in the expert system is included as Appendix
19.
The behavior rules methods function si:;ilar to this exd;.ilple.
When it is ttne to apply a behavior rule, a message is sent by the
controller to each rule requesting it be applied to a specific
,C person. The rule is activated by the message. If the preconditions
of the rule are satisfied for that person, then the rule contributes
F• to the performance of that person.0
Suppose the rule Role Clarity was sent a message for John.
This rule says a lack of clarity (ROLE.CONFLICT) is substantially
related to job tensions, turnover and proclivity to leave the job
(JOB1.SATISFACTION). The method examines John's slot called
ROLE.CONFLICT. If the value there is negative (meaning there is a
lack of clarity), that negative value is contributed to the
.0
.,.".
performance measure JOB.SATISFACTION. The contribution is handled
by adding the contributed value to the list of all values wliCh
contribute to that performance rieasure. If John's ROLE.COtHFLICT
value was negative it would contribute negatively to John's JOB.
SATISFACTION. After all the rules have been applied, another :ethod
averages all the contributed values into an overall performance
measure. Positive contributions to John's JOB.SATISFACTION would be
pulled down by any negative contribution. The amount of the decline
depends on the magnitude of the negdtive value and the nuiber and
magnitudes of other contributions.
. Control system. A control syster, is available to the user to
enter new data, evaluate the expert system or display individual or
organizational data. These functions are controlled by sending
messages to methods as discussed previously. Figure 15 shows the

the functions are nested so they send messages to each other.
System operation. The mlanagement consultant expert syste :i
rnntains the structured framework represeti.;g the class of
Individuals and the class of Organizations. The Behavioral Rules
unit has all methods available. To use the system, individuals and
their orgdnizations are entered into the model. Attitude values are
stored in the person's own slots.
After individuals are entered into the model, individual
intermediate and climate variables are calculated under direction of
-S\ the controller. The behavior rules are applied, and their
contribution to each performance measure is recorded. A set of
m methods averages all contributions into overall wedsures. The
--overall measures predict the levels of performance and satisfaction
for each individual.
Organizational slot values are aggregated from the values of
individuals in the organization. Overall organizational perfoniance
is calculated from weighted averages of the perforoance measures.
(These weights were determined by interviews with the -,lanagers.)
When individual and organizational computations are co :.plete, the
system is considered updated.

Individual attitude can affect performance in that organization.
Organizational performance ray be sensitive to changes in some
attitudes and insensitive to changes in others. The sensitivity
depends on the given organizational climate at the tine. Use of the
*- *~ consultant allows managers to test situations (changes in attitude)
and then make informed decisions based on the outcomes.
-. Validation of the Model
p.-; Organization selection. To validate the model, organizations
* were selected which represent a broad application base. The United
States Air Force approved the use of the 67th Civil Engineering
Squadron at Bergstrom AFB, Texas and 11 suborganizations within the
- squadron to provide test data. This squadron is very representative
of a typical Air Force civil engineering squadron in both size and
mission with the exception that the squadron's performance is rated
well above average. Figure 16 shows a simplified organizational
structure of a civil engineering squadron. The six organizations
under the Engineering/Environi-ental Planning Branch include
professional engineers, white collar technicians and ddrainistrative
personnel. The six organizations as part of the Structural
.laintenince Section contain skilled and unskilled craftsi.ien.

Eighteen hypothetical situations which could occur in aliost
any organization were selected (see Appendix 17). Each situation
would generally improve or degrade one of the organizational climate
measures. These situations became the test basis for validating the
model.
Expert system predictions. For the expert system predictions,
a review of the individual attitude variables was made for each
situation. Attitudes which would probably change under the
validation situations were identified as: improve a lot, improve a
little, decrease a little or decrease a lot (see Appendix !7).I
The computer predicts changes in performance by changing
attitudes of individuals according to the selected category for each
situation. Attitudes which were to increase a lot were raised a lot
according to a nonlinear, fuzzy logic algorithca (Goldkind, 1I913;
Zadek, 1984). Others were raised a little, decreased a little or
decreased d lot according to other fuzzy algorithms. The coriputer
code for the algorithms is in Appendix 18.
The fuzzy algorithms use a quadratic type transform. If an
attitude was already high, raising it had little effect. If an
attitude was low, raising it iide a big difference. This carries
over to the organization itself. If the organization has a very
effective coiriunication systea, suggested it:iprove,;iunts would hdve
little effect. If the conmunication system was poor, iaprove,:ients
may make a great deal of difference.

The changes in performance for each organization and each
situation were recorded. These changes are the prograta's best
predictions of how the situations would affect the real
organization.
Managers' predictions. Managers of each organization were also
,. asked to predict the changes in performance and satisfaction
measures for edch situation. The possible responses were: great
improvement, slight improvemient, no change, slight decrease and
great decrease for each measure (as shown in Appendix 17).

DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
This section discusses the use of the survey questioniiaire and
the statistical comparison of the expert systeri's predictions to the
manager's predictions.
Data Collection
Questionnaire use. Survey data were collected in two
increments. The first group included craftsmen of the Structural
Maintenance Section. Engineers and technicians of the Engineering/
Environmental Planning Branch were in the second group. Each group
was briefed on the purpose of the questionnaire and the nature of
the associated research. Workers and managers voluntarily co ,ipleted
the confidential attitude questionnaire. The anonyiious responses
were identified only by organization and coded in the expert system.
The manager (or supervisor) of each of the 11 organizations was
briefed about the role of job attitudes in job performance. The
eight performance and satisfaction measures to be used by the expert
system (see Appendix 13) were explained to the managers, and they
were asked to weight the importance of each in their organizition.
Managers also considered each hypothetical situation in Appendix 17
and predicted how performance measures would change for their
organization. Managem~ient predictions becaie the basis for
validating the expert system.

Expert system predictions. Individual attitudes taken froml thequestionnaires were combined to calculate climate variables for the
individual. Behavior rules were applied to the climate variables,
.-: individual attitudes and other intermediate variables to calculate
individual performance measures. Organizational cli,.Jate variables
and performance measures were aggregated from the melbership to
establish reference performance levels.
The consultant considered each of the hypothetical situations
for each coaputerized organization. Attitudes of individuals in the
organizations were adjusted by the fuzzy algorithms according to
categories shown in Appendix 17, and behavior rules were ruapplied
using the changed attitudes and climates. The consultant calculated
the change of the new performance measures from the reference
measures for each organization. Calculations became the program's
predictions for validating the expert system.
Observations on data collection. Although not a direct part of
this research, it is interesting to note that respondents to the
survey were hippy to express their attitudes. tlalny iad verbil dnd
written rem3arks saying nany i.ieasurements were particularly relevant
,0.; to their job. Siiple observations of individual attitudes displayed
many specific problems which could probably be easily rectified if
known by the supervisor (e.g., isolated high stress levels,
0. disgruntled employees and individual frustrations). Where effects
were widespread, they show in the cli mate variables. The poor
K, physical environment of the Drafting Shop is an example of this.

Because of confidentiality, organizations wiere not given feedback
from the questionnaire. However, it is evident that the survey did
identify specific needs within the organization which iay be
remedied. It also identifies both highly ambitious and motivated
ei-apl oyees.
Statistical Analysis
Nature of the data. Managers reported their predictive
measurements for each situation on a discrete Likert scale with a
range from 1 to 5 with 3 being neutral. These responses follow dl
0
ordinal scale.
Consultant predictions were based on calculated changes in
performance. Typical values of perforldance in the expert systemi
ranged from, 0.2 to 0.5. Most changes in perforiance measured
between -0.1 and 0.1 on a continuous interval scale.
Scale differences in the two predictions limit the statistics
that can be used to make comparisons. Most paraetric statistical
methods require at least interval scale (Pfaffenberger and
;Patterson, 1977). This leaves simple comparison tests,0
nonparanetric tests or data indnipulation to iloprove the data for
parametric tests. All three methods are used in this analysis.
0 Concurrence test. In this test, l.anagers' predictions were
paired with the prograa's predictions and a siiple agree/disagree
decision Ywas made (Sobel and van freda, 1937). If iianaters
0 predicted a performance measure would improve (or remain the sa:,ie)
... ............-.-...........-.-....... .- ......-.. ...- ..... -. ...- ". ' W
4i;
and the consultant predicted a positive difference in the medsure
the value of CONCUR was given the value of one. One was also given
if both predicted negative/reductions in performance. If the two
predictions disagreed, CONCUR was given a value of zero. In this
* way, the miean value of CONCUR for each situation arid neasure, for
the 11 organizations, gives a probability of concurrence. The
results of this test are in Table 1.
The probabilities of concurrence by perforilance neasure are all
above 0.70. The probabilities by situation ranged from 0.31 to 0.97
with two-thirds above 0.75. In situations where concurrenctu is less
than 0.5, there is a significant difference between the managers and
the consul tant. Further work with nanagers is necessary to confim
their opinions in these situations before discounting the
consul tant.
The probability of concurrence listed by organization is in
Table 2. The concurrence of the Engineering/Environmental
oryanizdtions are quite consistent except for the Engineering
Branch. This is unusual since the branch performance rneasures are
aggregates of the organizations in the branch. This sho;is that the
* perceptions of the branch chief are significantly different from his
subordinate rnanagers. Again further work with the branch chief 'nay
clarify tile diff.2rences.

The concurrence test indicates the consultant agreed with
managers' predictions 77% of the time. This is very good
considering that the managers concurred with each other 311. of the
time when they evaluated the situations.
Nonparaietric rank test. Ilany nonpdrametric tests deal with
rank values of data rather than the data itself. Speanran's rho
* coefficient uses the Pearson moment correlation formula for normal
paired correlation substituting paired rank values for the paired
data values (Pfafferiberger and Patterson, 1977). The Spearnan rho
* coefficient for comparing predictions for all organizations was 0.55

with a probable error less than 0.0001. The coefficients listed by
organization are in Table 3. The Spearman rho test is valid over
the full range of situations but is not valid for individual
situations where few data points are clustered.

averaging the predicted performance measures within each situation
by organizdtion. Using the mean of the eight performance and

very consistent within situations. With the reduced number of data
points, the Spearman rho coefficient WdS 0.66.
This test is stronger than the simple concurrence test. It
shows a solid correlation between consultant predictions and
management predictions of performance and performance averdyes.
Approximate parametric tests. When the eight discrete
performance predictions from organization managers were averaged by
situation, it made the predictions pseudocontinuous and almost
interval. Although it may not be completely valid, the paired
averages were compared using the Pearson moment correlation. The
correlation coefficient for the engineering group was 0.57 and for
the structures group was 0.51 at probable error of 0.0(101. The
overall coefficient was 0.63. The coefficients by organization are
in Table 4.
The correlation test is more restrictive than the nonpara.;etric
tests. It relates closeness of fit between the prediction pairs.
Values above 0.5 represent close correlation for behavioral issues.
This is confirmed by concurrence tests using the averaged
a': predictions giving 0.94 for the structures group and 0.33 for the
engineering group.

evaluate the questionnaire. The results are in Tables 5 through 14.
In most cases, 95% of the varidnce in the climate variable is
captured by fewer than 6 measures. There are large differences
between groups probably due to the small sizes (11 respondents in
the structural group, 32 in the engineering group for 63 total)
(Cronback, 1951). Based on the limited sample, the metrics
developed for comunications effectiveness, standards and goals and
physical environment appear almost as reliable as those created by
Secrist and llacknan/Oldham.%

CONTRIBUTIONS, FURTHER RESEARCH AND CONCLUSIONIS
This section discusses the significant contributions of this
research; suggests areas where this research could be expanded,
Nextended or modified and includes concluding remarks.
Contribution
Individual attitude questionnaire. The survey questionnaire
used in this research combined research from many sources into a
0 single instru;-1ent to im easure the full climate of organizations. The
portions measuring connunications effectiveness, standards and goals
and physical environnent are now available and consistent with
previously defined metrics.
Preliminary behavior rules. The behavior rules written is
application methods in the expert system demonstrate a procedure for
transforming behavioral findings into if-then production rules.
This procedure may be expanded into other research areas for use in
future expert systems.
Knowledge representation. The expert systeii developed in this
research displays a workable structure representing individuals and
• organizations in a computer knowledge base. The controller system,
application methods and validation technique are suitable for dK ldrge variety of expert systei applications.

Future Research
This research prompted consideration of several areas of
further research to improve and expand the prototype expert system.
Questionnaire improvement. The attitude questionnaire is
soraewhat lengthy. Further testing of the survey may make it
possible to reduce the number of questions without significant loss
in reliability.
Alternate performance measures. The consultant was validated
. % using changes in performance since the absolute values of
* performance may not be comparable between organizations. Additional
research relating performance to rneasurable productivity nay
substantiate the expert systel's findings and give iniproved feedback
; (Tuttl e, 1936).
A.-i Sensitivity analysis. A behavior rule contributes to
individual performance only if the preconditions are met. A
sensitivity of the rules and precondition variables may give
valuable insight into the importance of specific variables and/or
rules.
Weighting of values. When the consultant aggr(gated values for
climate and performance variables, the values were equally weighted
(ith the exception of OVERALL.PERFORNANCE which weighted
organizational measures according to the weights Managers assijned).KS*.o

Currently, the attitudes of high performers and low performers are
considered equally. Further research could improve this situation.
Additional behavioral research may show ideal weighting factors
for specific work do..iains. This was, in fact, the goal of Secrist's
work from 1976 to 1981 which established the climate measures for
research scientists. (G.E. Secrist, personal coniunication, .ly 10,
1987.) Using the consultant with a variety of organizations may
facilitate the establishment of such weights.
The consultant could also be used in conjunction with the
productivity measures and sensitivity analysis to adjust its own
;:eights in a recursive fashion. This technique may help formulate
., the nonlinear weighting schermies proposed by Naylor, Pritchard and
Ilgen (1980).
Developmient of situational variables. Variables identified as
affected by the hypothetical situations used to validate the model
were selected by careful consideration and knowledge of the
attributes and their meanings. The typical user would not be able
to categorize the most appropriate variables for a given situation.
A natural language interface with a parser specifically designed for
0 behavior issues imay be able to categorize variables for situational
analysis.
Validation group. In the validation process, managers [Iide
predictions based on their perceptions of their employees. The
consultant cilculated predicti(ons based on the epl oyc!'s (wlt
perceptions and attitudes. The disparity between these two points
V%.. . v . *.
650
of view could be reduced by surveying all employees about the
hypothetical situations in lieu of just the managers.
Use of volition. Secrist's total spectrum model of human
performance and organizational effectiveness (see Figure 6)
translates human abilities (mental, physical, experience, volition
and other factors) through job characteristics and climate variables
into performance measures. The model used in the prototype (see
Figure 11) reduced the human abilities portion to simply hu.idn
attitudes. The volition of the employee (the willinqness to act in
a given circumstance) is probably the next attribute to measure and
add to the reduced model. An employee may have desire, riotivation
and the right work climate but may not perform without volition.
Conclusions
This research shows it is possible to represent organizational
climate in an expert system and predict perforiiance using known
behavioral research findings. The consultant can evaluate the

APPENDIX 1
BEHAVIOR FINDINGS
This appendix paraphrases select behavioral research findings
as preliminary rules which can be used to evaluate performance. A
general statement of the rule is given with its source. Variables
in parenthesis are the corresponding variables used in the expert
system. The transformation of these rules into if-then phraseology
for the expert system is in Appendix 14.
Autonomy Creativity
Where employees have control over work methods (IND.ORG.
CONTROL) and while there is a need for creativity (SKILL.VARIETY.
INDEPENDENT.THOUGHT), there is increased innovation (EXCELLENCE,
REAL IZATION. OF. POTENTIAL).
(Patchen, 1970)
Autonomy Growth
Behavior is dominated by the most basic group of unsatisfied
needs. If autonomy is low (IND.ORG.CONTROL) and chances for growth
are low (GROWTH.DEVELOP) then satisfaction will be low
(NEED.FULFILLMENT, SELF.REALIZATION).
(Maslow, 1970)

Challenge Opportunity
Challenging work (JOB.CHALLENGE) and opportunity to use valued
abilities (GROWTH.DEVELOPMENT.HO) are found to be important in
retention decisions (call it loyalty) (ACHIEVEMENT, NEED.
_FILF ILLrWIIT).
(Mosbach and Scanlan, 1979)
4 Challenge Responsibility
Challenging work (JOB.CIIALLENGE) should be coupled with liberal
responsibility (IND.ORG.CONTROL) for best performance (ACHIEVEMENT).
(Schultz, 1970)
-* Challenge Satisfaction

Cohesive Goals
Cohesive groups (COHESIVE) generally demonstrate universal
participation (EFFECTIVE.PARTICIPATION), have clear, understandable
objectives (STANDARDS.GOALS); have frank, open communications
(COrlIH.EFFECTIVENESS); have integrated values and needs (REWARD.SYS);
share mutual influence (LACK.OF.INFLUENCE); and are willing to deal
with conflict (STRESS).
- (Likert, 1961; !lcGregor, 1960)
Cohesive Identify
Cohesiveness (COHESIVE) is linked to identification with thework organization (REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL).
(Patchen, 1970)
Cohesive Non-Accept
Highly cohesive groups (COHESIVE) perform below average
(ACHIEVEMENT, EFFECTIVENESS, EFFICIENCY, REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL)
if the group does not accept the organizational goals
(STAflDARDS.GOALS)

Commitment Communications
Groups with greater commitment to goals (STANDARDS.GOALS), more
open communication (COMM.EFFECTIVENESS) and more friendly
interpersonal relations (INTERPERSONAL.REL) manifest cohesiveness
(COHESIVE).
(Secrist, 1981)
Distrust
In a highly participative environment (EFFECTIVE.
PARTICIPATION), if there is distrust (TRUST), it destroys concerted
actions (SELF.REALIZATION).
(Rosenfeld and Smith, 1967)
External Control
External control (IND.ORG.CONTROL) is less effective because it
contributes to psychological withdrawal (call it job interest)
(ACHIEVEMENT, EFFICIENCY, JOB.SATISFACTION) and diminishes
willingness to contribute (call it job attitude) (NEED.FULFILLMENT,
ACHIVEMENT).

4 Fulfillment Growth
Higher order need gratification (NEED.FUILFILLMENT) is related
to the autonomy of the job (IND.ORG.CONTROL) and the growth
experiences of the job (GROWTII.DEVELOPMENT).
(Lawler and Hall, 1970)
Interest Supervisor
Interesting work (SKILL.VARIETY.HIO, JOB.CIIALLENGE) and a good
supervisor (LEADER.SUPER) produce job satisfaction (JOB.
SATISFACTION) and efforts at efficiency (EFFICIENCY).
Interpersonal Relations
Participation in decision 11aking across work groups and within
work groups (INTERPERSONAL.REL) results in increased involveilent and
co,.imitient (ACHIEVEMENT, REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL, JOB.SATISFACTION,
'.4z NEED.FULFILLMENT).
(Drake and Mitchell, 1978)
Involvement.4
Job involvement (INVOLVEMENT, NEED.FOR.INVOLVEM ,EiT) is a potent

(Beehr and Newman, 1978; Schuler, 1990; Wherry and Curran, 1966)
Leader Climate
Leader behavior (LEADER.SUPER) and organizational climate
(OVER.ALL.CLIMATE) contribute to increased accidents and injury
(EFFICIENCY, EFFECTIVENESS, JOB.SATISFACTION, REALIZATION.OF.

(Butler and Jones, 1979)
Meaningful Work
If work is meaningful (SKILL.VARIETY.HO), TASK.IDENTITY,
TASK.CONTINUITY, TASK.SIGNIFICANCE) in an autonomous environlwent
(IND.ORG.CONTROL) and offering appropriate rewards (REWARD.SYS)
then workers will be highly motivated (JOB.SATISFACTION, NEED.
FULFILLMENT, ACHIEVEMENT, EFFECTIVENESS, EFFICIENCY, REALIZATION.OF.
POTENTIAL).
* (Hackman and Oldham, 1975, 1976)
Motivation Skill Use
Job motivation (JOB.MOTIVATION) is proportional to use of
0skills (SKILL.VARIETY), individual control of work (IND.ORG.CONTROL)
and feedback (REWARD.SYS).

Reward Needs
The equity theory says people attempt to balance input effort
with the rewards they receive. High expectations (EXPECTATION.OF.
REWARDS) and high importance of receiving rewards (IMPORTANCE.OF.
REWARDS) prompts higher work effort (ACHIEVEMENT, REALIZATION.OF.
POTENTIAL, JOB.SATISFACTION, NEED.FULFILLMENT).
(Adams, 1965; Mitchell, 1979; Porter and Lawler, 1963)
Reward Role Clarity
Feedback (REWARD.SYS) is amplified under conditions of role
clarity (ROLE.CONFLICT). Job satisfaction (ACHIEVEMENT,
REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL, JOB.SATISFACTION, NEED.FULFILLMENT)
appears to increase when goals are established.
(Mitchell, 1979)
Reward Work
If hard work leads to fair rewards (REWARD.SYS), then people
work harder (expectancy theory) (ACHIEVEMENT, EFFECTIVENESS,
EFFICIENCY, REALIZATION.OF.POTENTIAL).
(Lawler, 1970; Porter, Lawler, 1968; Mitchell, 1979)
Rewards Self-Esteem
Irnproved intrinsic rewards (INTRINSIC.REWARD) led to a feeling
of self-esteem (JOB.SATISFACTION, SELF.REALIZATION), accomplishment
