Fit and frustration as drivers of targeted counterproductive work behaviors: A multifoci perspective.
作者整合了工作适应理论和压力源-情绪模型，研究职场挫折感在个人-环境匹配与反生产工作行为之间的中介作用。采用多焦点视角，同时考察多个匹配、挫折感和反生产行为焦点之间的关系，包括同焦点效应（目标相似）和跨焦点效应。研究1基于447对员工-同事配对样本，研究2采用三波调查设计，样本为669名员工。结果表明：挫折感中介了个人-环境匹配对反生产行为的影响；匹配焦点一致的变量之间效应最稳定。
In this article, the authors integrate the theory of work adjustment (Dawis, England, & Lofquist, 1964) and the stressor emotion model of counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs; Spector & Fox, 2005) to examine workplace frustration as an intervening mechanism that mediates relations between person-environment (P-E) fit and CWBs. Moreover, we adopt a multifoci perspective to estimate effects for multiple fit, frustration, and CWB foci. We examine the nature of relations between fit, frustration, and CWB for like foci (target similar effects), as well as cross-foci effects. Study 1 examines proposed effects in a sample of 447 employee-coworker dyads. Study 2 uses a 3-wave survey design and tests effects in a sample of 669 employees. Results from both studies suggest that (a) frustration mediates the effects of P-E fit on CWBs and (b) the most consistent effects were observed among the variables with matching foci. Implications for research and practice are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record
