自我损耗对道德型领导影响员工道德建言的阻抑机制研究

The Inhibitory Mechanism of Ego Depletion on the Impact of Ethical Leadership on Employees’Moral Voice

以社会学习理论为基础,基于583对领导与员工的两时点配对数据,构建了一个嵌套着被中介调节效应的理论模型以考察道德型领导影响员工道德建言过程的资源条件性,以进一步揭示道德型领导影响员工道德建言的受阻机制。研究结果表明,道德型领导对员工道德建言的影响并非直接且自然,而受到自我损耗和员工-领导道德基础差异性的抑制。具体而言:自我损耗和员工-领导道德基础差异性均显著抑制道德型领导对道德榜样认同的影响,进而阻碍员工道德建言;员工-领导道德基础差异性在自我损耗对道德型领导影响员工道德建言的抑制效应中起中介作用。

Grounded in social learning theory,this study develops a theoretical model incorporating moderated mediation effects to explore the resource-dependent dynamics of ethical leadership’s influence on employees’moral voice.The aim is to identify the mechanisms that constrain the impact of ethical leadership on employees’moral voice.Drawing on two-wave paired data from 583 leader-employee dyads,the findings reveal that this influence is neither direct nor automatic but is instead inhibited by ego depletion and employee-leader moral foundation differences.Specifically,both ego depletion and employee-leader moral foundation differences hinder the effect of ethical leadership on employees’moral model identification,thereby suppressing their moral voice.Additionally,employee-leader moral foundation differences mediate the inhibitory effect of ego depletion on the relationship between ethical leadership and employees’moral voice.
