TI  - Employee stock options in China: impacts on employees’ psychological ownership and job behaviours
PY  - 2015
AB  - This study investigates the effects of employee stock options (ESOs) on employees' psychology and job outcomes in China. We found employees' organisational citizenship behaviour toward the organisation (OCB-O) was positively related to their participation in ESOs and mediated by psychological ownership. However, there was no such association with job performance. Psychological ownership was positively related to OCB-O but not job performance. Besides, job control was found to be more strongly associated with employees' psychological ownership than participation in ESOs. When providing employees with stock options, management should empower employees with more job controls, helping employees feel like 'owners' of the enterprise.
