领导完美主义如何影响下属工作绩效?——一个有调节的链式双路径模型研究

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 为了更好地应对激烈的市场竞争,越来越多企业鼓励或要求员工高标准完成工作。尽管已有大量研究探讨了完美主义的个体内部效应,但对于个体完美主义在工作互动中对他人的潜在影响仍缺乏关注。基于社会信息加工理论,本研究探讨了领导完美主义将如何影响下属的工作绩效。通过对75位团队领导及其272位直接下属进行三阶段问卷调查,本研究发现,领导完美主义会通过下属的绩效压力影响下属的工作超载和工作反思,进而影响其工作绩效,其中下属的自我效能感调节了上述两条中介路径。本研究揭示了领导完美主义影响下属工作绩效的作用机制及其边界条件,为工作场所完美主义相关研究提供了更加全面和辩证的视角,并为促进领导完美主义的积极作用、规避其负面影响提供了有益借鉴。

关键词: 完美主义, 绩效压力, 工作超载, 工作反思, 工作绩效

Abstract: To better cope with the fierce market competition, more and more enterprises encourage or require employees to finish their work as per high standards. Although many studies have discussed the intrapersonal effect of perfectionism, there is still a lack of attention to its interpersonal effect in workplace interaction. Based on social information processing theory, this study explores how leader perfectionism influences subordinates' job performance. A three-wave survey of 75 team leaders and 272 direct subordinates shows that leader perfectionism could affect subordinates' work overload and task reflexivity through performance pressure, then influence their job performance, and self-efficacy of subordinates moderates the above two mediating paths. By clarifying the mechanism of how leader perfectionism affects subordinates' job performance and the boundary conditions, this study provide a more comprehensive and dialectical perspective for understanding workplace perfectionism and a practical guide for organizations to promote the positive influence of leader perfectionism and avoid its negative impact.

Key words: perfectionism, performance pressure, work overload, task reflexivity, job performance
