Abstract

Recognizing the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in human resource management, this research aimed to investigate the impact of AI’s involvement in HR operations on employee reactions. Study 1 examined the positive impact of AI’s involvement in HR operations on turnover intention, mediated by organizational dehumanization in the promotion decision context. In the performance evaluation context, Study 2 investigated the effect of AI’s involvement in HR operations on behavioral (turnover intention) and attitudinal (affective commitment) reactions, via organizational dehumanization. Study 3 tested organizational climate as the boundary condition in the relationships between AI’s involvement in HR operations, organizational dehumanization, and employee reactions, with an additional behavioral reaction (punishing behavior). The findings showed that AI’s involvement in HR operations leads to increased organizational dehumanization, thereby evoking negative employee reactions. Furthermore, the effect of AI’s involvement in HR operations was found to be more salient in organizations with a collaborative climate.

人力资源管理中的人工智能（AI）：组织非人性化和员工负面反应的驱动因素

认识到人工智能（AI）在人力资源管理中的应用越来越多，本研究旨在调查人工智能参与人力资源运营对员工反应的影响。研究1考察了人工智能参与人力资源运营对离职倾向的积极影响，在晋升决策背景下，组织非人化介导了离职倾向。在绩效评估背景下，研究2通过组织去人性化考察了人工智能参与人力资源运营对行为反应（离职意向）和态度反应（情感承诺）的影响。研究3测试了组织气候作为人工智能参与人力资源运营、组织非人性化和员工反应之间关系的边界条件，并伴有额外的行为反应（惩罚行为）。研究结果表明，人工智能参与人力资源运营导致组织非人性化加剧，从而引发员工的负面反应。此外，研究发现，在具有协作氛围的组织中，人工智能参与人力资源运营的影响更为显著。
