Dominating Interpersonal Behavior and Perceived Victimization in Groups: Evidence for a Curvilinear Relationship
研究发现,工作群体中成员表现出的支配行为水平过高或过低,都会使其更易成为人际伤害的目标,且这种关系受性别影响。
A victim precipitation model was used to predict that members of workgroups who were perceived by others as exhibiting either high or low levels of dominating behavior would report being more frequent targets of personally injurious behaviors than those who were perceived as moderately dominating. However, we expected this effect to be moderated by the target’s gender. Data obtained from 131 MBA students who were randomly assigned to workgroups supported both the curvilinear relationship and the moderating effect of gender.
