Abstract

Researchers have noted various obvious behavioral outcomes caused by abusive supervision while overlooking hidden behaviors. We draw on self-determination theory to propose that abusive supervision leads to subordinates’ hidden destructive behavior, namely neglect. This study examines the relationship by focusing on a three way interaction model. Using multi-wave design, we collected data in a Chinese leading petrochemical corporation. We found positive associations between abusive supervision and neglect. Such associations are influenced by subordinates’ insider status and organizational support. Theoretical and practical implications, limitations and future research directions are discussed.

Keywords abusive supervision      leader-based perceived insider status      organizational support      neglect
