Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore whether trait and state mindfulness alters the relationship between abusive supervision and interactional justice perceptions, which then predicts supervisor-directed retaliation. Design/methodology/approach Study 1 examined these relationships among 230 employees using a cross-sectional survey design. Study 2 further examined these relationships among 263 undergraduate students using a scenario-based, experimental laboratory study. Findings In Study 1, counter to predictions, individuals who were higher in trait mindfulness were most likely to view an abusive supervisor as unfair. Exploratory analyses suggested that this effect was isolated to the mindfulness dimension of being highly attentive to moment-to-moment experiences. Study 2 replicated this effect with state mindfulness (specifically, attention to one’s present moment). Practical implications Organizations should consider how mindfulness interventions might not always be useful – and potentially counterproductive – for affecting perceptions of and reactions to some stressful work situations like abusive supervision. Originality/value Little research has been done on how mindfulness affects perceptions of and reactions to abusive supervisors. The authors expected mindfulness could reduce the negative effect of supervisor abuse on interactional justice perceptions, as well as the effect of interactional injustice on retaliation. However, within the context of abusive supervision, training individuals to become more mindful may actually predict lower levels of interactional justice, resulting in more supervisor-directed retaliation.

正念在滥用监督中的作用

目的本文的目的是探讨特质和国家正念是否会改变滥用监督与互动正义感之间的关系,从而预测由监督者指挥的报复。设计/方法/方法研究1使用横断面调查设计检查了230名员工之间的这些关系。研究2使用基于情景的实验性实验室研究进一步检查了263名本科生之间的这些关系。在研究1中,发现与预测相反,特质正念度较高的人最有可能认为虐待上司是不公平的。探索性分析表明,这种影响被隔离到正念层面,即高度关注瞬间到瞬间的体验。研究2以状态专心(特别是,注意一个人的当下)。实际意义组织应考虑正念干预措施对于影响某些压力性工作情况(如滥用监督)的看法和反应可能并不总是有用,甚至可能适得其反。创意/价值关于正念如何影响对虐待上司的看法和反应的研究很少。作者期望正念可以减少主管虐待对互动正义观念的负面影响,以及互动不公正对报复的影响。但是,在滥用监督的情况下,训练个人变得更加专心实际上可能会预测互动司法水平较低,从而导致更多由监督者指挥的报复行为。实际意义组织应考虑正念干预措施可能并不总是有用,并且可能会适得其反。创意/价值关于正念如何影响对虐待上司的看法和反应的研究很少。作者期望正念可以减少主管虐待对互动正义观念的负面影响,以及互动不公正对报复的影响。但是,在滥用监督的情况下,训练个人变得更加专心实际上可能会预测互动司法水平较低,从而导致更多由监督者指挥的报复行为。实际意义组织应考虑正念干预措施可能并不总是有用,并且可能会适得其反。创意/价值关于正念如何影响对虐待上司的看法和反应的研究很少。作者期望正念可以减少主管虐待对互动正义观念的负面影响,以及互动不公正对报复的影响。但是,在滥用监督的情况下,训练个人变得更加专心实际上可能会预测互动司法水平较低,从而导致更多由监督者指挥的报复行为。
