Corollary VIIIB: P’s tenure in E is a function of the correspon_

dence of P’s structure with E’s structure.

VIIIB. TE = f(pstCest)

Proposition IX: P-E correspondence increases as a function of P’s
tenure.

IX. pCe = f(TE)

Proposition X: The correspondence of P’s style to E’s style moderates
the prediction of P’s correspondence with E from the correspon-
dence of P’s structure to E’s structure.

X. pCe = f(pstCest|psyCesy) = f(pstCest, pstCest ×psyCesy)

Proposition XI: E’s flexibility moderates the relationship between P’s
satisfactoriness and P’s ability-requirement correspondence.

XI. SS = f(aCr|FLe) = f(aCr, aCr ×FLe)

Proposition XII: P’s flexibility moderates the relationship between
P’s satisfaction and P’s reinforcer-value correspondence.

XII. SN = f(sCv|FLp) = f(sCv, sCv ×FLp)

Proposition XIII: The probability that E will go into adjustment
mode is inversely related to P’s satisfactoriness.

XIII. P(AMe) = f(1/SS) or P(AMe) = f(SS)

Corollary XIIIA: Knowledge of E’s adjustment-mode probability

associated with P’s satisfactoriness permits the determination of

E’s flexibility.

XIIIA. (P[AMe]|SS) → FLe

Proposition XIV: The probability that P will go into adjustment
mode is inversely related to P’s satisfaction.

XIV. P(AMp) = f(1/SN) or P(AMp) = f(SN)
