The moral dark side of performance pressure: how and when it affects unethical pro-organizational behavior
基于社会认知理论，研究发现绩效压力通过道德辩护机制促使员工做出亲组织的不道德行为，且创造性认知风格会强化这一效应，而道德认同则能削弱该影响。
Drawing on social cognitive theory of moral conduct, we hypothesize that performance pressure is positively associated with unethical pro-organizational behavior (UPB) through the mediation of moral justification beyond that of self-serving cognitions. We further hypothesize that creative cognitive style enhances this relationship, whereas moral identity ameliorates the moderating effect of creative cognitive style. The findings from two field studies involving multi-wave data provide convergent support for our hypotheses. We conclude by discussing the theoretical and practical implications of these findings.
