TLDR
The results of the later study were in many respects almost identical to those obtained earlier, thus validating the previous study, and revealed a very strong relationship between a programmer's attitude to his supervisor and programming productivity.About:

Managerial use of metrics for object-oriented software: an exploratory analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of a set of metrics proposed by Chidamber and Kemerer (1994) is performed in order to assess their usefulness for practising managers, and exploratory analyses of empirical data relating the metrics to productivity, rework effort and design effort on three commercial object-oriented systems are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Software complexity and maintenance costs
TL;DR: Before empirical evidence linking software complexity to software maintenance costs is relatively weak, several researchers have noted that such results must be applied cautiously to the large-scale commercial application systems that account for most software maintenance expenditures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model to evaluate variables impacting the productivity of software maintenance projects
TL;DR: An estimable production frontier model of software maintenance is developed, using a new methodology that allows the simultaneous estimation of both the production frontier and the effects of several productivity factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expert judgement as an estimating method
TL;DR: It is suggested that some work could profitably be applied to attempting to support expert judgement rather than displacing it in the estimating process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Practical guidelines for expert-judgment-based software effort estimation
TL;DR: This article presents seven guidelines for producing realistic software development effort estimates that derive from industrial experience and empirical studies and use the most recent findings regarding judgment-based effort estimation.

Work and motivation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors integrate the work of hundreds of researchers in individual workplace behavior to explain choice of work, job satisfaction, and job performance, including motivation, goal incentive, and attitude.

C. E. Walston,C. P. Felix +1 more
TL;DR: A method of programming project productivity estimation is discussed and preliminary results of research into methods of measuring and estimating programming project duration, staff size, and computer cost are presented.

A meta-model for software development resource expenditures
John W. Bailey,Victor R. Basili +1 more
TL;DR: A model-generation process is presented which permits the development of a resource estimation model for any particular organization which captures its particular environmental factors and the differences among its particular projects.

The effects of self‐set, participatively set and assigned goals on the performance of government employees
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a job analysis to define effective supervisory behavior and found no significant difference in goal difficulty between those with participatively set goals and those with self-set goals.

Some basic determinants of computer programming productivity
TL;DR: The purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between processing characteristics of programs and experience characteristics of programmers and program development time to develop a technique for predicting the amount of time necessary to create a computer program.
