摘要
对职场虐待现象的研究是当下组织管理领域的研究热点。作为职场虐待现象之一的领导辱虐管理在对直接受害者产生消极影响的同时,也常常引致对旁观者和组织整体的消极影响。作为组织有生力量的新员工在融入组织的过程中,也会作为旁观者观察到领导对同事的辱虐管理,使其信息搜寻和关系建立等主动行为受到影响。为了探讨领导对同事的辱虐管理对新员工信息搜寻和关系建立的作用机制,文章基于社会信息处理理论,以心理安全感为中介变量,以权力距离为调节变量,构建了一个有调节的中介模型。对中国北方一家大型连锁药店的167名新员工及其直接领导进行了调查,并对研究假设进行检验。研究表明:领导对同事的辱虐管理对新员工的心理安全感有显著负向影响;心理安全感在领导对同事的辱虐管理和新员工的信息搜寻、关系建立行为之间起中介作用;权力距离会负向调节领导对同事的辱虐管理与新员工的心理安全感之间的负向关系。研究有助于扩展辱虐管理和新员工主动行为的研究领域,同时对减少组织内领导辱虐管理、帮助新员工通过信息搜寻和关系建立更好适应组织有着指导意义。
Research on workplace abuse is a hot topic in the field of organization management.As one of the workplace abuse phenomena,the abusive supervision not only has a negative impact on direct victims,but also on bystanders and the whole organization.Newcomers,as a vital force in the organization,might observe the abusive supervision to colleagues as bystanders in the process of integration into the organization,which will affect their proactive behaviors such as information search and relationship building.In order to explore the mechanism of the abusive supervision on newcomers’ability to information search and relationship building,this study,based on the social information processing theory,constructs a moderated mediation model,with psychological safety as the mediator and power distance as the moderating variable.In this study,167 newcomers and their direct leaders from a large chain pharmacy in northern China have been investigated,and the research hypothesis has been tested.The results show that:(1)Peer abusive supervision has a significant negative impact on newcomers’psychological safety;(2)Psychological safety plays a mediating role between the peer abusive supervision and newcomers’behavior of information search and relationship building;(3)Power distance negatively moderates the negative relationship between peer abusive supervision and newcomers'psychological safety.This study helps to expand the research field of abusive supervision and newcomer proactive behavior and has important practical implications for reducing abusive supervision in the organization and helping newcomers to better adapt to the organization through information search and relationship building.
