Purpose

The purpose of the current research is to study the relationship between narcissism and unethical pro-organizational behavior (UPB), and also examine whether status striving mediates the relationship between narcissism and UPB among individuals with high organizational identification.

Design/methodology/approach

Data that was used to test the research model were collected from five companies in the trading sector in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. The final sample included 200 responses, among all participants 29.5% were in a leadership position.

Findings

The current research found that narcissism leads individuals to exhibit a willingness to engage in UPB. Furthermore, status striving mediates the relationship between narcissism and UPB among individuals with high organizational identification.

Research limitations/implications

Research did not use actual reported UPB but measured employees' willingness to engage in UPB.

Practical implications

Organizations should develop special ethics guidance to change the employee's perceptions of UPB from the act of helping or protecting the organization to undesirable behavior in the organization. Moreover, the organization may develop an ethical counseling program, by which individuals may perceive that ethical behavior is valuable for the organization.

Originality/value

Current study examines the relationship between narcissism and UPB. Moreover, it provides empirical support for the notion that the relationship between narcissism and UPB is mediated by status striving among individuals with high organizational identification.

为什么自恋的人会从事不道德的亲组织行为。测试有调节的中介模型

目的

本研究的目的是研究自恋与不道德的亲组织行为(UPB)之间的关系,并检验地位争取是否在具有高组织认同的个体中介导自恋与UPB之间的关系。

设计/方法/方法

用于测试研究模型的数据来自乌兹别克斯坦塔什干贸易部门的五家公司。最终样本包括 200 份回复,在所有参与者中,29.5% 处于领导地位。

发现

目前的研究发现,自恋会导致个人表现出参与 UPB 的意愿。此外,在具有高组织认同感的个体中,地位追求在自恋和 UPB 之间起中介作用。

研究限制/影响

研究并未使用实际报告的 UPB,而是衡量员工参与 UPB 的意愿。

实际影响

组织应制定专门的道德指南,将员工对 UPB 的看法从帮助或保护组织的行为转变为组织中的不良行为。此外,组织可以制定道德咨询计划,通过该计划,个人可能会认为道德行为对组织很有价值。

原创性/价值

目前的研究考察了自恋和 UPB 之间的关系。此外,它为自恋和 UPB 之间的关系是由具有高度组织认同感的个人之间的地位奋斗所介导的观点提供了实证支持。
