“…In addition, the Litwin and Stringer (1968) book provided chapters on both conceptual and empirical insights into what climate is, how it can be studied, and its future potential for understanding and influencing organizations to enhance their effectiveness. Schneider and Bartlett (1968) also published a measure of climate they had developed for assessing life insurance agency climate which contained similar dimensions to those of the Litwin work. An extensive review of what existed at the time by (Campbell et al, 1970) was presented in a chapter titled "Environmental Variation and…”

We review the literature on organizational climate and culture paying specific attention to articles published in the Journal of Applied Psychology (JAP) since its first volume in 1917. The article traces the history of the two constructs though JAP has been far more important for climate than culture research. We distinguish four main periods: the pre-1971 era, with pioneering work on exploring conceptualization and operationalizations of the climate construct; the 1971 -1985 era, with foundational work on aggregation issues, outcome-focused climates (on safety and service) and early writings on culture; the 1986 -1999 era, characterized by solidification of a focused climate approach to understanding organizational processes (justice, discrimination) and outcomes (safety, service) and the beginnings of survey approaches to culture; and the 2000 -2014 era, characterized by multi-level work on climate, climate strength, demonstrated validity for a climate approach to outcomes and processes, and the relationship between leadership and climate and culture. We summarize and comment on the major theory and research achievements in each period, showing trends observed in the literature and how JAP has contributed greatly to moving research on these constructs, especially climate, forward. We also recommend directions for future research given the current state of knowledge.

“…• Los Factores Psicológicos Individuales incluyen los procesos psicológicos, entre los que destacan: a) la necesidad del individuo de establecer interacción social, b) necesidad de establecer sentimientos de afinidad hacia la organización y c) construcción de un sentimiento positivo o negativo al sentir pertenencia a la organización (Schneider 1968, citado por Ucros, 2011). También se incluye el sentir y la manera de reaccionar de las personas frente a las características de cada organización y ante diferentes situaciones, según sus construcciones personales de significados.…”

The measuring of organizational climate aims to obtain feedback that can inform an organization on ways in which to make improvements; not only in the work environment, but also in the quality of it; hence, it is important to possess instruments that provide reliable information of what is intended to be measured. Describing the building process of an organizational climate instrument is the objective of the present article, in which, after having established the relevance of the topic in the introduction; the stages developed for the elaboration and validation of the measuring instrument of the organizational climate perceived by professors of Higher Education Institution are presented. The result of this process is an instrument with four factors and nineteen dimensions. Keywords: Organizational climate, measuring instrument, university professor ResumenLa medición del clima organizacional, tiene por objeto retroalimentar a la organización para mejorar, no solamente el ambiente de trabajo sino la calidad del mismo, de ahí que sea importante contar con instrumentos que nos arrojen una información confiable de lo que se pretende medir, la descripción de la construcción de un instrumento para clima organizacional es el objetivo de este artículo, en donde una vez establecida la importancia del tema en la introducción, se presentan las etapas desarrolladas para la elaboración y validación de un instrumento de medición del clima organizacional que perciben los docentes de una Institución de Educación

“…Largamente baseada nos estudos de Schneider (Schneider, 1972(Schneider, , 1973Schneider & Bartlett, 1968Schneider & Hall, 1972), tal abordagem considera o clima organizacional como um conjunto de percepções sintéticas ou globais construídas pelos indivíduos acerca do ambiente organizacional. A percepção sobre o clima é assim formada com base na interação entre características pessoais e organizacionais, sendo constituída por valores situacionais específicos relacionados aos aspectos da organização que são mais significativos para os sujeitos.…”

ResumoClima organizacional pode ser caracterizado como um conjunto de percepções compartilhadas por trabalhadores sobre diferentes aspectos do ambiente organizacional, sendo um dos construtos mais investigados no campo do comportamento organizacional. Este trabalho objetivou sistematizar parte dos conhecimentos produzidos sobre clima organizacional ao longo dos anos, ao estabelecer um ordenamento histórico das pesquisas sobre o tema em três momentos: de 1930 a 1960, estudo da taxonomia, contexto e estrutura do construto; de 1970 a 1980, diferenciação entre os conceitos de clima e cultura organizacionais; e de 1990 à atualidade, estudos empíricos para testar a validade discriminante do clima organizacional em relação a outros construtos e desenvolvimento de novos métodos de análise. Ressaltase a premência pelo desenvolvimento de novos modelos teóricos que integrem o conjunto de descritores dos modelos já existentes e uma maior aplicação de técnicas psicométricas para validação desses modelos.Palavras-chave: clima organizacional; revisão histórica; modelos teóricos; comportamento organizacional. AbstractOrganizational climate can be characterized as a set of perceptions, shared by workers, of different aspects that make up the organizational environment, being one of the most investigated constructs in the field of Organizational Behavior. This paper aims to organize part of the knowledge produced concerning organizational climate along years, establishing a historical order of research in three stages: from 1930 to 1960, studies of construct taxonomy, context and structure; from 1970Texto recebido em fevereiro de 2010 e aprovado para publicação em maio de 2010.
