Job performance dimensions were observed from two different standpoints; peer's and supervisor's evaluations. Data were collected from front-line service employees attached to 40 purposively selected service companies located in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. Questionnaires were distributed through the human resource manager of the participating companies. The process of data collection took approximately six months from October 2007 to March 2008. Out of 400 questionnaires distributed, 188 were returned yielding a response rate of 47%. However, 19 responses were non-usable leaving 167 responses to be analyzed. A series of statistical analyses were applied to test the hypotheses as well as to answer the research questions. The analyses include descriptive analyses, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, factor analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Besides, moderated multiple regression (MMR) for categorical variables were applied to analyze the moderating effects of Service Type variables. A series of hierarchical regression analyses were performed to analyze the moderating effects of Emotional Labor, Personality Traits and Internal Work Motivation. 2010 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/5830/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/5830/2/5830.pdf text en public phd doctoral Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Administrative Science and Policy Studies Ahmad, Jasmine
