The Pygmalion Process and Employee Creativity
研究140名研发员工发现，主管对创造力的高期望会促使员工感知到更多支持行为，进而通过提升创造性自我效能感提高创造力表现。
The study examined the Pygmalion process for creativity among 140 R&D employees. Results generally supported the Pygmalion model. Supervisors holding higher expectations for employee creativity were perceived by employees as behaving more supportively of creativity. The effects of these behaviors on employee creative self-efficacy were mediated by employee view of creativity expectations. Creative self-efficacy mediated the effects of supervisor expectations, supervisor behaviors, and employee view, on creative performance. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
