The relationship between abusive supervision and employee silence is becoming an increasingly hot topic in human resource management. Scholars’ researches indicate that the correlation intensity between them is inconsistent and fluctuates. Based on the available literature, this paper examines the relationship between abusive supervision and employee silence with Meta-analysis method. 21 independent sample studies from 18 empirical literature meet the need of Meta-analysis (N=6692). Meta-analytic consequences demonstrate that abusive supervision is positively related to employee silence at a moderate intensity(r=0.375).Different measurements make significant difference to the relationship between abusive supervision and employee silence while research level has a salient moderation effect on them. Besides, publication types exert no moderation effect on them so that there is no publication bias problem in our research. 辱虐管理与员工沉默的关系:一项 Meta 分析 赖宇婷 1,a, 朱婧 1,b,简浩 1,c,* 1工商管理学院,广东财经大学,广州市,广东省,中国 a2251980806@qq.com, b136848832@qq.com, crajonhao@163.com
