Abstract Previous research points to the adverse effect of destructive leadership on counterproductive work behaviour (CWB), yet the mechanism by which destructive leadership engenders or aggravates CWB has yet to be thoroughly studied. Drawing on general theories of despotic leadership, CWB and Organisational Behavior, we proposed and tested a model in which self-efficacy, autonomy and narcissism mediate the effect of destructive leadership on CWB. Results of survey data predicated on 845 respondents employed in various Israeli industries indicate that autonomy and self-efficacy attenuate the adverse effect of destructive leadership on CWB, whilst narcissism aggravates self-efficacy’s attenuating impact on CWB. This study sheds further light on the ways in which autonomy, self-efficacy and narcissism shape adverse workplace settings.

自我效能感，自恋和自治如何介导破坏性领导与适得其反的工作行为之间的联系

摘要先前的研究指出破坏性领导对适得其反的工作行为（CWB）的不利影响，但破坏性领导导致或加剧CWB的机制尚待深入研究。基于专制领导，CWB和组织行为的一般理论，我们提出并测试了一个模型，在该模型中自我效能感，自主性和自恋介导了破坏性领导对CWB的影响。对以色列各行各业845名受访者的调查数据结果表明，自主性和自我效能感减轻了破坏性领导对CWB的不利影响，而自恋则加重了自我效能感对CWB的减弱作用。这项研究进一步揭示了自主性，自我效能感和自恋对不良职场环境的影响方式。
