AB - This study evaluates the extent to which records-based and
self-reported measures of absenteeism correspond with each other. A valid
and reliable self-reported measure can enhance the generalizability of findings
about absenteeism and allow data to be collected more efficiently. The
enhanced generalizability is of considerable theoretical importance to the
study of absenteeism. The sample consists of full-time employees at a large,
midwestern, urban hospital in the United States. Data on absences were
collected by both questionnaires and records with the same measure for
identical employees during the same period of time. The analysis indicates a
moderate correlation (.467), which is a conservative estimate, between the
suggested self-reported measure and a records-based measure. An argument
is made that the suggested self-reported measure, since it represents an
improvement over past research, constitutes progress toward the development
of a valid and reliable self-reported measure of absenteeism. The paper
concludes with seven recommendations for future research.
