Thomas Höge is a researcher at the University of Innsbruck's Department of Applied Psychology, where he focuses on critical perspectives in work and organizational psychology. His research examines neoliberalism's impact on workplaces, organizational democracy, socio-moral climates, and occupational well-being. He co-leads the Innsbruck Group on Critical Research in Work and Organizational Psychology (I-CROP) and coordinates international conferences on radical humanist approaches.
His research interests center on:
- Critical analysis of neoliberal ideology in work environments
- Organizational democracy and participatory practices
- Work flexibility's psychological consequences
- Socio-moral organizational climates
- Meaningfulness in work and its relationship to well-being
Höge's publications predominantly explore power dynamics in organizations, democratic governance structures, and well-being in professional settings (especially healthcare). His methodological approaches include meta-analyses, mixed-methods designs, and cross-cultural comparisons.
He has led several funded projects including:
- WELL-MED: Well-being of medical students/practitioners (FWF-funded)
- Work-life balance in Tyrolean gastronomy (Tiroler Wissenschaftsfonds)
- Career uncertainties among young scientists (Hypo Tirol Bank)
Höge collaborates with international researchers across Europe and contributes to developing assessment tools like the Work Analysis Screening (WA-S) for higher education settings.
