Abstract

Host country nationals (HCNs) possess unique and valuable knowledge which is critical to expatriate and multinational company (MNC) success. Drawing on conservation of resources (COR) theory, we explore the negative effect of role overload on HCNs' knowledge sharing toward expatriates. Using two waves of data collected from 512 HCNs, we find HCNs' role overload inhibits their knowledge sharing behavior via perspective taking. The results also show that HCNs' personality agreeableness buffers the negative relationship between role overload and perspective taking. Our study provides significant theoretical and practical implications to expatriate literature.

东道国国民的角色超负荷和观点取向是知识共享的前因：东道国国民一致性的调节作用

东道国国民（HCNs）拥有独特而宝贵的知识，这些知识对于外派人员和跨国公司（MNC）的成功至关重要。根据资源保护（COR）理论，我们探讨了角色超负荷对HCNs与外派人员知识共享的负面影响。利用从 512 名外籍员工处收集到的两波数据，我们发现外籍员工的角色超负荷会通过 "观点采纳 "抑制其知识共享行为。研究结果还表明，华裔加拿大人的人格合意性可以缓冲角色超负荷与观点采纳之间的负相关。我们的研究为外籍文献提供了重要的理论和实践意义。
