Abusive Supervision, Upward Maintenance Communication, and Subordinates' Psychological Distress
重新分析Tepper(2000)的两波数据，发现下属感知到的上级辱虐越强，越倾向于使用调节性维护沟通，而这种沟通会加剧辱虐管理与心理困扰的正向关系，直接维护沟通则能缓解该关系。
This study reanalyzes data from Tepper's (2000) two-wave study regarding the effects of subordinates' perceptions of supervisory abuse to assess previously unexamined relationships. As predicted, we found that subordinates who more rather than less strongly perceived that they had been abused by supervisors tended to use regulative maintenance tactics with higher frequency. Further, the positive relationship between abusive supervision and subordinates' psychological distress was exacerbated by subordinates' use of regulative maintenance communications, and that relationship was reduced by subordinates' use of direct maintenance communication. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
