Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between company orientation toward managers' wives and conformity behavior of managers and wives. The findings indicate that managers and their wives are relatively more conforming than the general population. The significantly higher conformity scores of managers may well be due to organizational pressures for conformity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
