The current study explores issues concerning how work unit as a system affects its member's material well being and social behavior in the era of reform. It links this resource distribution process with the defining features of the work unit organization and the fundamentals of the social structure on the one hand, and with the feeling of dissatisfaction and relative deprivation on the other hand. It tries to test hypothesis that the people's feeling of dissatisfaction is directly related with their ownership situation of resources in the Danwei. The degree of relative deprivation depends on the degree of dissatisfaction, but not on the variable of resources. The degree of dissatisfaction could effect people's dependent behavior in the Danwei through the control variable of relative deprivation. The income gap in the Danwei will play more and more important role for the determination of people's behavior in the Danwei. The authors of the current research maintain also that there is interlock of the state power over administration and resources distribution through work units. And this system environment encourages the non institutional behavior from the grass root work units and work unit people in general.
