亲组织非伦理行为“自上而下”扩散的被迫遵从机制研究

Research on the Forced Compliance Mechanism of Unethical Pro-Organizational Behavior“Top-down”Transmission

基于自我保护理论,利用多时点、多来源研究设计收集的256对领导-下属配对数据,探讨亲组织非伦理行为由领导到下属“自上而下”扩散的被迫遵从机制及其发生的边界条件。研究结果表明,下属亲组织非伦理行为与领导亲组织非伦理行为显著正相关,即下属会追随领导展现类似的亲组织非伦理行为;在控制社会学习和社会认同机制的条件下,自我保护动机部分中介了领导亲组织非伦理行为对下属亲组织非伦理行为的影响。此外,华人企业中威权领导的工作情境,在亲组织非伦理行为“自上而下”扩散的过程中发挥调节作用,即威权领导水平越高,领导亲组织非伦理行为经自我保护动机路径对下属亲组织非伦理行为的影响越强。

From the perspective of self-protection theory,using 256 pairs of leader-subordinate paired data collected by multi-time and multi-source research design,this study explored the forced compliance mechanism and boundary conditions of the“top-down”transmission of unethical pro-organizational behaviors(UPB)from leaders to subordinates.The results showed that:①there was a significantly positive correlation between subordinate’s UPB and Leader’s UPB,that is,subordinates followed leaders to show similar UPB in organization.②Controlling social learning and social identity mechanism,self-protection motivation partially mediated the influence of leaders’UPB on subordinate’s UPB.③Authoritarian leadership in Chinese enterprises played a moderating role in the process of“top-down”contagion of UPB.The higher the level of authoritative leadership,the stronger the influence of leaders’UPB on subordinate’s UPB by the way of self-protection motivation.
