This paper aims to examine how ethical leadership alleviates knowledge contribution loafing among engineering designers through the mediating effect of knowledge-based psychological ownership and the moderating effect of emotion regulation strategies.,This study adopts a questionnaire survey to obtain 344 valid sample from engineering designers and uses partial least squares-structural equation modeling to analyze data.,The results demonstrate that ethical leadership is a key factor to alleviate knowledge contribution loafing. Knowledge-based psychological ownership is a main factor causing knowledge contribution loafing and mediates the influence of ethical leadership on knowledge contribution loafing. Furthermore, cognitive reappraisal (a response-focused emotion regulation strategy) moderates the relationship between ethical leadership and knowledge contribution loafing, and the effect of ethical leadership on knowledge contribution loafing is stronger when cognitive reappraisal is high.,Engineering design organizations may inspire ethical leadership and pay attention to psychological state of designers. Leaders may help designers overcome knowledge-based psychological ownership by the influence of ethical leadership. During the process of knowledge interaction, designers may adopt cognitive reappraisal strategy consciously.,This study addresses the knowledge gap that ethical leadership affects knowledge contribution loafing with knowledge-based psychological ownership as the intermediary. This study also advances the literature on leadership and emotion regulation and extends the scope of social learning theory in knowledge management domain through examining the moderate role of emotion regulation strategies.

通过道德领导减轻工程设计师之间的知识贡献障碍：基于知识的心理所有权和情绪调节策略的作用

本文旨在探讨道德领导者如何通过基于知识的心理所有权的中介效应和情绪调节策略的调节效应来缓解工程设计师之间的知识贡献流失。本研究采用问卷调查的方式从工程设计师那里获得344个有效样本使用偏最小二乘结构方程模型对数据进行分析。结果表明，道德领导是缓解知识贡献流失的关键因素。基于知识的心理所有权是造成知识贡献流失的主要因素，并调解了道德领导对知识贡献流失的影响。此外，认知再评估（一种以响应为中心的情绪调节策略）缓解了道德领导与知识贡献面包之间的关系，并且当认知再评估很高时，道德领导对知识贡献面包的影响更强。工程设计组织可能会激发道德领导和薪酬注意设计师的心理状态。领导者可以通过道德领导者的影响来帮助设计师克服基于知识的心理所有权。在知识交互过程中，设计者可能会自觉采用认知再评估策略。本研究以知识为基础的心理所有权作为中介，解决了道德领导影响知识贡献的知识鸿沟。
