Abstract

Prior studies on the dark side of the organisation tend to overlook some important mediator(s) in the relationship between the dark triad personalities (D.T.P.s) and counterproductive work behaviour (C.W.B.). Hence, this study examines the multiple-mediation model by incorporating perceived organisational politics and perceived accountability in the relationship between D.T.P.s and C.W.B. The sample of 290 employees is selected through a random sampling technique from the hospitality industry. Partial least squares structural equation modelling (P.L.S.-S.E.M.) and bootstrapping are employed to examine the multiple-mediation model. The results show that perceived organisational politics and perceived accountability mediate the association of the D.T.P.s and C.W.B. Our findings provide policymakers with a vision into the existence of the D.T.P.s and their potential consequences for C.W.B. This study encourages decision-makers and practitioners to develop an ethical climate, job standards, and systems of accountability to achieve productive goals.

摘要

先前对组织黑暗面的研究往往忽略了黑暗三人格（DTP）和适得其反的工作行为（CWB）之间关系的一些重要中介。因此，本研究通过将感知组织政治和感知责任纳入 DTP 和 CWB 之间的关系来检验多重调解模型。通过酒店业的随机抽样技术选择了 290 名员工的样本。采用偏最小二乘结构方程建模 (PLS-SEM) 和自举来检查多重中介模型。结果表明，感知的组织政治和感知的问责制调解了 DTP 和 CWB 的关联 我们的研究结果为政策制定者提供了关于 DTP 存在的愿景
