Why people harm the organization and its members: Relationships among personality, organizational commitment, and workplace deviance
基于大五人格模型和社会交换理论,研究了113名韩国员工的人格特质、组织承诺与针对组织和人际的职场偏差行为的关系,发现尽责性和宜人性通过组织承诺部分中介影响偏差行为。
Based on the five-factor model of personality traits and social exchange theory, this study examines the relationships of personality traits, organizational commitment, and two target-based factors of workplace deviance (organizational deviance and interpersonal deviance), using a sample of 113 South Korean employees. By the use of path-analysis, we first found that Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Emotional Stability were meaningfully related to organizational commitment. In addition, both the effect of Conscientiousness on organizational deviance and the effect of Agreeableness on interpersonal deviance were partially mediated by organizational commitment. In sum, results clearly show that the personality traits of Conscientiousness (impersonal) and Agreeableness (interpersonal) function differently in predicting workplace deviance.
