组织政治知觉对员工绩效的影响:自我损耗理论的视角

摘要/Abstract

摘要：

以往研究主要从社会交换理论和工作压力的视角探讨了组织政治知觉的作用机制，但鲜有文献基于自我损耗理论考察组织政治知觉对员工结果的影响。因此，本研究从一个新的视角——自我损耗理论，探究资源损耗在组织政治知觉与员工绩效（任务绩效、组织公民行为）之间所起的中介作用，并考察员工政治技能的调节效应。采用问卷调查法，以290名员工及其上级为样本，运用层级回归、被调节的中介效应等方法进行统计分析。研究结果表明：（1）在控制了社会交换理论和工作压力这两条路径后，资源损耗在组织政治知觉与员工绩效（任务绩效、组织公民行为）之间起中介作用；（2）员工政治技能调节了组织政治知觉与资源损耗之间的关系。员工的政治技能越高，组织政治知觉对员工资源损耗的正向影响越小；（3）员工政治技能调节了资源损耗在组织政治知觉与员工绩效（任务绩效、组织公民行为）之间所起的中介作用。员工政治技能越高，中介效应越弱。

Abstract:

Previous researches mainly draw upon social exchange theory and job stress to explain mediating mechanisms in perceptions of organizational politics (POP) literature, with little attention to exploring how POP influences its outcomes via ego depletion. Therefore, this study examines the mediating role of resource depletion in POP-employee performance linkage from the perspective of ego depletion theory. Furthermore, we test the moderating role of employee political skill in the relationship between POP and resource depletion. We examine our proposed hypotheses with matched data collected from 290 employees and their direct supervisors. The results reveal that resource depletion mediates the relationship between POP and employee task performance and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Moreover, the results of moderated mediation analyses show that political skill moderates the mediating effect of resource depletion on the relationship between POP and employee task performance and OCB. This mediating effect is stronger when employee political skill is low than when employee political skill is high.

Key words: perceptions of organizational politics, resource depletion, task performance, organizational citizenship behavior, political skill
