Introduction
Currently, I am working on communication about diversity and inclusion in organizations. But I have also published on tax psychology/social dilemmas, mobile working, gender stereotypes, admission test evaluation, and multimedia learning.
My methodological skills are primarily quantitative, including standard statistical analyses, social representations, SEM, and research synthesis, but also qualitative, including thematic analyses.

Receiving adequate information and emotional support from team members could reduce the stress caused by technological c...
This paper aims to uncover blind spots in research on employee communication regarding LGBT+ to provide guidance for future research. To this end, we conducted a scoping review following the PRISMA-guidelines. A systematic literature search in four databases yielded 3,055 records. Our final sample included 164 publications reporting on 178 quantita...
Globalization and migration have increased the Muslim population in many European countries and thereby the desire for products that meet religious needs. Several retailers have responded by offering halal products. Thereby, they also foster the inclusion of their Muslim customers as an act of corporate social responsibility (CSR). Yet, consumers a...
Good admission procedures reflect the requirements of the aspired program and, thus, help select applicants who will finish their studies successfully. Accordingly, admission procedures should predict students’ grades and dropout. A distance learning study program provided applicants with relevant learning materials in advance and used a study-rela...

The aim of the present study was to broaden the understanding of gender stereotypes in leadership by taking more subtle approaches, that focus on...

According to work and organisational psychology, both power of
superiors and trust in superiors increase compliance. Summarising these results in a straightforward way, the slippery slope model additionally distinguishes between enforced and voluntary compliance. The model’s assum...
Background: Learning videos are widely used in education and theory-based design principles are established. To derive design recommendations for learning material, however, potential users should be involved. Immersive learning environments (e.g., augmented reality, virtual reality) are new and there are no recommendations for their use yet. Objec...

Vereinbarkeit von Beruf und Familie veranlassen immer mehr Unternehmen, ihren MitarbeiterInnen
virtuelles Arbeiten zu ermöglichen. Dies stellt die Führungskräfte dieser MitarbeiterInnen vor zusätzliche
Herausforderungen, die sich einerseits aus einem ve...
Für die Erhebung von Diversität in Unternehmen steht derzeit kein einheitliches, valides Messinstrument
zur Verfügung. Abhängig vom Forschungsschwerpunkt werden unterschiedliche Variablen herangezogen
um Unterschiede sichtbar zu machen. Das betrifft sowohl die direkt messbare Soziodemografie, als
auch weniger einfach abfragbare Merkmale, wie Persön...

The present study examines whether the unemployed differ from occupational categories, with regard to the perceived status of their category, identification with their category and the occurrence of in-group favouritism. According to social identity theory, members of low-status groups with permeable group boundaries often use the strategy of indiv...
In social dilemmas (e. g. paying taxes vs. evading
taxes, buying tickets for public transport
vs. dodging fares) cooperation could be voluntary
or enforced. According to the Slippery
Slope Framework – established in tax psychology
– voluntary cooperation results from
trust in authorities, whereas enforced cooperation
originates from authorities’ po...
To advice investors on the financial market according to their financial risk tolerance
it is necessary to develop an instrument, which is suitable to measure financial risk
tolerance. Such an instrument should determine different factors influencing financial
risk tolerance (i.e., behavior, attitude, capacity and knowledge). In addition scientific...
Tax payments are enhanced by taxpayers' trust in authorities or by authorities' power leading to voluntary or enforced tax compliance, respectively. A laboratory experiment and an online experiment examined these assumptions, manipulating trust in and power of authorities. In Experiment 1, participants paid taxes in twenty periods. Results showed t...
Surveys on tax compliance and non-compliance often rely on ad hoc formulated items which lack standardization and empirical validation. We present an inventory to assess tax compliance and distinguish between different forms of compliance and non-compliance: voluntary versus enforced compliance, tax avoidance, and tax evasion. First, items to measu...
This study examines whether participating in governmental decisions influences taxpayers' cooperation. The results of experiment 1 show that participants tend to contribute more when they can vote on different rules for a public good game. Experiment 2 reveals that tax payments are lowest in a tax simulation when participants benefit from tax payme...
Since the standard model of income tax evasion (Allingham & Sandmo, 1972; Srinivasan, 1973) was published, much research has tested its four parameters (level of actual income, tax rate, audit probability, penalty rate) for empirical validity. Surveys, laboratory experiments and analysis of aggregate data revealed ambiguous evidence for the model’s...
The present article suggests transforming a model of tax compliance to a model of compliance in organizations. The model considers the power of authorities and trust in authorities as the main moderators of compliance. Authorities can either enforce compliance to organizational goals through surveillance and punishment or enhance voluntary complian...
A framework for tax compliance is suggested in which both the power of tax authorities and trust in the tax authorities are relevant dimensions for understanding enforced and voluntary compliance. Dynamic interactions between power and trust are considered. Using the framework as a conceptual tool, factors studied in previous research, such as fine...
