Perceptions of Politics Scale (POPS)
Kacmar‚ 1997

Factor 1: General Political Behavior
1.    People in this organization attempt to build themselves up by tearing others down.
2.    There has always been an influential group in this department that no one ever crosses.
Factor 2: Go Along to Get Ahead
3.    Employees are encouraged to speak out frankly even when they are critical of well-established ideas.
4.    There is no place for yes-men around here; good ideas are desired even if it means disagreeing with superiors.
5.    Agreeing with powerful others is the best alternative in this organization.
6.    It is best not to rock the boat in this organization.
7.    Sometimes it is easier to remain quiet than to fight the system.
8.    Telling others what they want to hear is sometimes better than telling the truth.
9.    It is safer to think what you are told than to make up your own mind.
Factor 3: Pay and Promotion Policies
10.    Since I have worked in this department‚ I have never seen the pay and promotion policies applied politically.
11.    I can’t remember when a person received a pay increase or promotion that was inconsistent with the published policies.
12.    None of the raises I have received are consistent with the policies on how raises should be determined.
13.    The stated pay and promotion policies have nothing to do with how pay raises and promotions are determined.
14.    When it comes to pay raise and promotion decisions‚ policies are irrelevant.
15.    Promotions around here are not valued much because how they are determined is so political.
