Abstract

ABSTRACT Although seminal research on counterproductive work behavior (CWB) included a seriousness dimension, there has been little investigation of the factors that determine seriousness perceptions and on the relevance of seriousness perceptions for responses to CWB (e.g., sanctions). Study 1 showed that organizationally-targeted CWBs were rated as more serious than interpersonally-targeted CWBs. Degree of harm and CWB motive (personal gain vs. prosocial) were not significantly related to seriousness ratings. In Study 2, minor CWBs resulted in less severe sanctions than more serious CWBs; this effect was greater for informal sanctions than for formal sanctions. Identifying the factors that determine perceptions of seriousness can develop our understanding of the nature of CWB, inform CWB prevention initiatives, and help prevent discriminatory application of sanctions.

反生产劳动行为的性质及其后果研究

尽管对反生产工作行为(CWB)的开创性研究包括严肃性维度，但对决定严肃性认知的因素以及严肃性认知与反生产工作行为(如制裁)反应的相关性的研究很少。研究1显示，以组织为目标的CWBs被认为比以人际为目标的CWBs更严重。伤害程度和违章行为动机(个人利益vs.亲社会)与严重程度评分无显著相关。在研究2中，轻微违章行为比严重违章行为受到的处罚要轻;非正式制裁比正式制裁的影响更大。厘清影响对严重程度看法的因素，有助加深我们对违建废物性质的认识，为预防违建废物的措施提供资讯，并有助防止歧视性地实施制裁。

期刊介绍： Human Performance publishes research investigating the nature and role of performance in the workplace and in organizational settings and offers a rich variety of information going beyond the study of traditional job behavior. Dedicated to presenting original research, theory, and measurement methods, the journal investigates individual, team, and firm level performance factors that influence work and organizational effectiveness. Human Performance is a respected forum for behavioral scientists interested in variables that motivate and promote high-level human performance, particularly in organizational and occupational settings. The journal seeks to identify and stimulate relevant research, communication, and theory concerning human capabilities and effectiveness. It serves as a valuable intellectual link between such disciplines as industrial-organizational psychology, individual differences, work physiology, organizational behavior, human resource management, and human factors.
