Abstract
This study examines subordinate subjective congruence resulting from personal ethical identity and perceived ethical leadership (PEL) on followership behaviors, including: obedience, proactive, and constructive resistance behaviors through identification with supervisors. Using polynomial regressions, results from self-reported data of 208 employees in China supported that higher level of identification with supervisor occurs because of the following: (1) ethical congruence rather than ethical incongruence; (2) high-high rather than low-low congruence; (3) incongruence when personal ethical identity is lower than PEL rather than when personal ethical identity is higher than PEL. Moreover, such perceived ethical congruence facilitates followership obedience and proactive behaviors but not constructive resistance behavior via identification with supervisors. Relevant theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
本研究探讨了个人道德认同和感知道德领导力（PEL）对下属追随行为的主观一致性，包括通过对上司的认同而产生的服从、积极主动和建设性抵制行为。通过对中国 208 名员工的自我报告数据进行多项式回归，结果表明，员工对上司产生较高程度的认同是因为以下原因：(1)道德一致性而非道德不一致性；(2)高-高一致性而非低-低一致性；(3)个人道德认同低于 PEL 时的不一致性而非个人道德认同高于 PEL 时的不一致性。此外，这种感知到的道德一致性会促进追随者的服从和主动行为，但不会通过对上司的认同促进建设性的抵制行为。本文讨论了相关的理论和实践意义。
