Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficients are shown in the diagonal; correlations and Alphas are based on the complete sample (i.e., survivors and non-downsized group); aS, Survivors (N = 24), bn-D, employees in non-downsized group (N = 24); cDummy variable (0 = no downsizing, 1 = downsizing); P1, before potential layoff; P2, after potential layoff; identification was measured with a seven- point scale, with 7 as highest and 1 as lowest value; performance is the number of correctly arranged sliders; +p < 0.10; p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01.
