Abstract

We discuss four challenges facing emotion scholarship in organizational behavior: (1) inconsistent definitions; (2) aggregation of discrete emotions into affective dimensions; (3) aggregation across time; and (4) failure to recognize the role of context. We discuss literature related to these challenges, and call for empirical research to address them. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
