Abstract

General Mental Ability (GMA) refers to an individual's capability to reason, plan, solve problems, and comprehend complex ideas. In the context of work and organizational psychology, GMA is one of the best predictors of overall job performance, and especially task and contextual performance. However, the relationship between GMA and a third dimension of overall job performance, workplace deviance, remains inconclusive and under-researched. We investigated this hypothesis using a sample of 391 individuals from various occupational fields. Using novel Bayesian cumulative link mixed effects models, our results show that even after controlling for all Five-Factor Model factors, GMA has a significant, yet weak effect on workplace deviant behavior. Our findings emphasize the need for a more comprehensive exploration of the influence of GMA across diverse occupational sectors to fully understand its impact on workplace behavior.
全球海洋环境状况评估(GMA)与适得其反的工作行为之间的关系
一般心智能力(GMA)是指个人推理、计划、解决问题和理解复杂思想的能力。在工作和组织心理学中,GMA 是预测整体工作绩效,尤其是任务和环境绩效的最佳指标之一。然而,GMA 与整体工作绩效的第三个维度--工作场所偏差--之间的关系仍然没有定论,研究也不充分。我们使用来自不同职业领域的 391 个样本对这一假设进行了研究。通过使用新颖的贝叶斯累积链接混合效应模型,我们的结果表明,即使在控制了所有五因素模型因素之后,GMA 对工作场所偏差行为仍有显著但微弱的影响。我们的研究结果强调,需要更全面地探讨 GMA 在不同职业领域的影响,以充分了解其对职场行为的影响。
