Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which women and minorities may refuse to actively pursue positions which provide the chance to exercise more authority and responsibility because they perceive that the opportunities are really phantom (that is, the officially announced openings have already unofficially been filled). It also examines the impact of this phenomenon and other factors on employees' attitudes towards affirmative action.
