Social support at work and at home: Dual-buffering effects in the work-family conflict process
Publication date: May 2018 Source:Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Volume 146 Author(s): Helen Pluut, Remus Ilies, Petru L. Curşeu, Yukun Liu Using experience-sampling methodology, the present study offers a within-individual test of the buffering model of social support in the daily work-family conflict process. Building on the conceptualization of social support as a volatile resource, we examine how daily fluctuations in social support at work and at home influence the process through which work interferes with family life. A total of 112 employees participated in the study and were asked to ...

Is individual bribery or organizational bribery more intolerable in China (versus in the United States)? Advancing theory on the perception of corrupt acts
Publication date: November 2017 Source:Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Volume 143 Author(s): Zhi Liu, Xiao-xiao Liu, Ying-yi Hong, Joel Brockner, Kim-pong Tam, Yan-mei Li The Chinese government is making unprecedented efforts to curb corruption resulting in several high-profile prosecutions involving local and foreign businesses. Accordingly, we examined the influence of national culture on the intolerance of bribery, based on the premise that bribery is more intolerable when it is committed by the actor seen as more agentic in a given culture. As predicted, Studies 1a, 1b, and 2 found that th...

Polluted work: A self-control perspective on air pollution appraisals, organizational citizenship, and counterproductive work behavior
Publication date: November 2017 Source:Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Volume 143 Author(s): Ryan Fehr, Kai Chi Yam, Wei He, Jack Ting-Ju Chiang, Wu Wei In rapidly developing nations such as China, air pollution is a growing concern. Nonetheless, theory and data on the impact of air pollution on employee behavior are essentially nonexistent. In this paper we employ a diary methodology to examine the within-individual effects of air pollution appraisals on employees’ daily self-control resources and behavior. Multilevel data collected across two weeks from 155 employees located in urban China ...

Understanding the trust deficit in China: Mapping positive experience and trust in strangers
Publication date: November 2017 Source:Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Volume 143 Author(s): Jingjing Yao, Zhi-Xue Zhang, Jeanne Brett, J. Keith Murnighan The observation that in China people generally do not trust strangers motivated us to study this phenomenon. We used the literature of guanxi to define strangers, and we drew on intergroup contact theory to hypothesize that positive experiences with outgroup, but not with ingroup members will increase trust in strangers. In three experiments we found that perceiving support from (Study 1), receiving help from (Study 2), and being trusted by (S...

Configuring challenge and hindrance contexts for introversion and creativity: Joint effects of task complexity and guanxi management
Publication date: November 2017 Source:Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Volume 143 Author(s): Xiaomeng Zhang, Jing Zhou, Ho Kwong Kwan We conducted a phenomenon-based research study in China. Starting with interviews and observations to capture the phenomenon, we built on and extended the challenge stressor–hindrance stressor framework to investigate how task complexity interacts with managing guanxi with a supervisor to influence the relationship between introversion and creativity. In Study 1, using a sample of 597 employees and their supervisors, we hypothesized and found a three-way interact...
