摘要

基于工作自我概念理论的综合视角，我们提出，在工作场所受到排斥会损害员工在工作中的道德认同，从而影响他们参与道德声音行为。我们还提出，道德领导力可以减轻工作场所排斥的有害影响。在研究 1（N = 291）中，时滞数据显示了工作中道德认同的中介效应，即使控制了自我耗竭和道德情绪也是如此。在研究 2 中，来自中国员工样本（N = 144）的结果显示，当道德领导力较低时，工作场所的排斥对员工工作中的道德认同更不利。在研究 3 和研究 4 中，我们通过实验分别操纵了职场排斥和道德领导力（N = 283）以及多源时滞现场数据（N = 125），为我们的模型提供了更多支持证据。我们还讨论了该模型对理论和实践的启示。

Silence Speaks Volumes: The role of workplace ostracism and ethical leadership in shaping moral identity at work and ethical voice

Drawing upon an integrated perspective based on working self-concept theory, we propose that being ostracized in the workplace undermines employees’ moral identity at work and thus their engagement in ethical voice behaviors. We also propose that ethical leadership can mitigate the detrimental effects of workplace ostracism. In Study 1 (N = 291), time-lagged data revealed a mediation effect of moral identity at work, even controlling for ego depletion and moral emotions. In Study 2, results from an employee sample in China (N = 144) reveal that workplace ostracism is more detrimental to employees’ moral identity at work when ethical leadership is lower compared to higher. In Studies 3 and 4, we provide additional evidence to support our model using an experiment in which we manipulate workplace ostracism and ethical leadership (N = 283) as well as multi-sourced, time-lagged field data (N = 125), respectively. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
