Previous literature describes "coming out of the closet" as an important job career issue that is conducive to personal stress and job effectiveness in business firms. Previous research of human resources and organizational behavior has rarely assessed homosexual employees\' coming out and their job effectiveness. This study aims to complement previous research by proposing and testing a research model of job effectiveness of homosexual workers based on social cognitive theory. In the model, job effectiveness is indirectly affected by disclosure self-efficacy, disclosure outcome expectation, and social support via the mediation of disclosure, stress, and job advancement satisfaction. Empirical tests from a preliminary survey of 319 gay and lesbian adults in Taiwan are conducted herein, their results are presented, and managerial implications and limitations of this study are provided.

Drawing upon social cognitive theory, this research postulates critical team characteristics and environmental factors as key drivers of team performance in virtual contexts. In the proposed model of this study, team performance is positively related to four antecedents (i.e., team efficacy, collective outcome expectation, emotional intelligence climate, and procedural justice climate) directly and indirectly via the mediation of team planning. An empirical testing of this research, by investigating working professionals in high-tech industries, suggests the applicability of social cognitive theory in understanding team performance in virtual teaming contexts. Last, managerial implications about future virtual teaming and limitations of this research are provided. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
