In this paper, we argue that workplace structure plays a critical role in determining the strength of the relationship between abuse and interpersonal deviance on part of victims. However, theory offers contrasting views of this effect. One view suggests that formalized structures provide clear direction and strict guidance on subordinates’ work behaviors, thereby mitigating deviant reactions to abusive supervision. In contrast, a second perspective postulates that formalized structures further burden employees, thereby heightening aggressive reactions to abuse. Results from Study 1 support the mitigating effect of structure. Study 2 replicates and extends these findings by showing that role ambiguity is the underlying psychological mechanism through which formalization lessens employee deviant responses to abuse.","PeriodicalId":47825,"journal":{"name":"Human Performance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49481243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Time-lagged, multisource data from a sample of nurses and their direct supervisors in thirty public hospitals in Romania were used to test the proposed model. The results of generalized multilevel structural equation modeling (GSEM) showed that the relationship between customer incivility and service citizenship behaviours was mediated by work engagement.

Top 20% selection samples drawn from an applicant pool with known validity coefficients demonstrate that the sample validity estimates of the three predictors are differentially biased in both magnitude and direction, depending on the selection strategy used. Concurrent validity designs generally favor novel predictors. Corrections for direct range restriction across situations were mostly ineffectual. With proper scaling, corrections for indirect range restriction are accurate, but cross-variable biasing effects can occur when score distributions of the individual predictors differ. Many of the biases found in the simulation results are demonstrated in a firefighter predictive validation study where variations of Pearson-Thorndike range corrected validities and a full information maximum likelihood (FIML), approaches are all compared as validity assessments. With normalized predictors, both Pearson and FIML methods show that a test of general mental ability and physically demanding job tasks predicted firefighter performance throughout the 30-year study, with no evidence of interactions or a leveling of performance at high test scores.","PeriodicalId":47825,"journal":{"name":"Human Performance","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2021-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45018799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
