| dc.description.abstract | The present study was conducted among Iranian employees who work in international joint ventures (IJVs) to study the effect of work values and humor on job performance with communication satisfaction as a mediator. Social exchange theory was used as a reference. A total of 375 usable questionnaires were collected. The data was analyzed by SPSS software and multiple regression analysis method was used. Findings of the present study revealed that work value has a significant impact on job performance. It is highlighted that frequent use of humor has a significant impact on job performance. It is shown that two dimensions of work value (instrumental and cognitive) have significant impact on informational communication satisfaction. In addition, relationships between work values and relational communication satisfaction were supported. It is also found that there is a positive relationship between frequency of humor and communication satisfaction. It is also made known that communication satisfaction has a positive relationship with job performance. The findings enunciate that informational communication satisfaction partly mediates the relationship between both instrumental work value and cognitive work value on contextual performance. Meanwhile, it is indicated that informational communication satisfaction entirely mediates the relationship between instrumental value and task performance. Informational communication satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between cognitive value and task performance. In addition, it is demonstrated that relational communication satisfaction mediates the relationship between work value and job performance. It is pointed out that informational communication satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between frequency of humor and contextual performance. The results of the present study emphasized that relational communication satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between frequency of humor and contextual performance. The findings noted that relational communication satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between frequency of humor and task performance. The findings of the present study provide useful information for the IJVs, especially in Iran. For Iranian IJVs that wish to improve their employees’ contribution on job performance, human resource department of the Iranian IJVs are recommended to take serious observations and enhance work values, humor and communication satisfaction. | en_US |
