摘要
关于心理契约的文献关注的是员工对雇主义务的看法，而不是员工对自己义务的看法。因此，一般义务很少被理论化。本研究认为，工作场所的支持（即来自组织、主管和同事）和道德相关特征（即道德认同、尽责性和亲和性）预测了感知到的一般义务，感知到的一般义务预测了绩效结果，并且这种影响在不同的文化中有所不同。从148个样本（N = 45,671）收集的元分析数据为提出的关系提供了初步支持。我还研究了感知一般义务在预测绩效结果方面的增量有效性，超越了其他相关因素（例如，规范性承诺，积极和消极影响），感知一般义务在其法则网络中的中介作用，以及连接研究变量的替代模型。因此，本研究说明了感知一般义务在心理契约研究中的价值。（PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA，版权所有）。
The literature on psychological contracts has focused on employees' perceptions of their employers' obligations, but not on employees' perceptions of their own obligations. Hence, perceived general obligation has seldom been theorized. This study argues that workplace support (i.e., from the organization, supervisors, and coworkers) and morally relevant traits (i.e., moral identity, conscientiousness, and agreeableness) predict perceived general obligation, that perceived general obligation predicts performance outcomes, and that the effects vary across cultures. Meta-analytic data collected from 148 samples (N = 45,671) provide preliminary support for the proposed relationships. I also examine the incremental validity of perceived general obligation in predicting performance outcomes beyond other correlates (e.g., normative commitment, positive and negative affect), the mediating role of perceived general obligation in its nomological network, and alternative models for linking the study variables. This study therefore illustrates the value of perceived general obligation in psychological contract research. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Applied Psychology® focuses on publishing original investigations that contribute new knowledge and understanding to fields of applied psychology (excluding clinical and applied experimental or human factors, which are better suited for other APA journals). The journal primarily considers empirical and theoretical investigations that enhance understanding of cognitive, motivational, affective, and behavioral psychological phenomena in work and organizational settings. These phenomena can occur at individual, group, organizational, or cultural levels, and in various work settings such as business, education, training, health, service, government, or military institutions. The journal welcomes submissions from both public and private sector organizations, for-profit or nonprofit. It publishes several types of articles, including:
1.Rigorously conducted empirical investigations that expand conceptual understanding (original investigations or meta-analyses).
2.Theory development articles and integrative conceptual reviews that synthesize literature and generate new theories on psychological phenomena to stimulate novel research.
3.Rigorously conducted qualitative research on phenomena that are challenging to capture with quantitative methods or require inductive theory building.
