  • The Paradox of Perfection

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Dong‐gwi Lee•ARTICLE•Sustainable Development•2026

    Organizations increasingly face a dual challenge of promoting sustainability while simultaneously demanding flawless performance from their employees. However, the pressure inherent in organizationally‐prescribed perfectionism (OPP) may inadvertently undermine the very pro‐environmental behavior at work (PEBW) that organizations seek to promote. Drawing on Conservation of Resources (COR) theory, this study investigates this paradox by proposing t…

    This study investigates how job insecurity affects employees’ cybersecurity behavior by highlighting the mediating role of job stress and the moderating function of self-efficacy in AI use. Drawing on multi-wave data (N = 373) from working adults in South Korea, the research employs a three-time-point design to address longstanding questions about whether perceived threats to employment stability influence compliance with organizational security …

  • The pro-environmental implications of job insecurity

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Harim Sohn et al.•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2026

    This study examines how job insecurity, a crucial job characteristic in rapidly changing employment contexts, influences employees’ pro-environmental behavior at work (PEBW). Drawing on the Conservation of Resources theory and Social Exchange theory, it proposes that job insecurity exerts an indirect impact on PEBW through employees’ affective commitment, with prosocial motivation acting as a moderating factor. Data were collected in three waves …

Using a four-wave, time-lagged dataset from 421 professionals in South Korea, the findings reveal that ethical leadership directly inspires employees’ eco-friendly actions while also exerting an indirect influence through a sequential pathway involving psychological safety and organizatio…

  • How Human‐Centered AI Buffers the Negative Effects of AI ‐Induced Job Insecurity on Sustainable Innovation

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Byung‐Jik Kim et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Development•2026•References: 10

    The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) generates employee concerns regarding job displacement, termed AI‐induced job insecurity (AIJI). This study examines how AIJI influences sustainable innovation through the serial mediation of psychological safety and knowledge‐sharing behavior, and whether Human‐Centered AI (HCAI) buffers these effects. Analyzing multi‐wave data from 407 employee‐HR dyads across Korean industries, we found that AIJI…

  • Too Drained to be Green”

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Byung‐Jik Kim et al.•ARTICLE•Sustainable Development•2026•References: 4

    This study investigates the psychological process linking work overload to employees' pro‐environmental behavior at work (PEBW). Drawing on the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory and the Job Demands‐Resources (JD‐R) model, we tested a moderated mediation model where burnout mediates the relationship between work overload and PEBW, and job crafting moderates the first stage of this mediation. We collected three‐wave, time‐lagged survey data fr…

  • The impact of corporate social responsibility on cybersecurity behavior

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Julak Lee•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2025

It specifically examines the mediating effects of psychological safety and job stress, as well as the moderating role of organizationally-prescribed perfectionism. Drawing on theories of social identity, social exchange, and the job demands-resources model, we postulate that CSR influences cybersecurity behavior in employ…

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Se-Youn Jung•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019

    Although some previous studies have examined the impact of transformational leadership on safety behavior, those works have paid relatively less attention to the intermediating role of employees' job strain in the link as well as contingent variables that moderate the relationship. Considering that not only job strain substantially affects employees' perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors in an organization, but also there are some contextual fact…

  • Does a Good Firm Breed Good Organizational Citizens? The Moderating Role of Perspective Taking

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim, Mohammad Nurunnabi et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019

    Although some previous studies have examined the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on employees in an organization, they have mainly focused on employees' perceptions or attitudes rather than behaviors. However, in that employees' behaviors are the direct outcome of the perceptions or attitudes and critically affect organizational outcomes, we need to investigate the impact of CSR on employees' behaviors. Based on the context-attitu…

  • Unstable Jobs Cannot Cultivate Good Organizational Citizens

    Open Access•Byung-Jik Kim•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019

    Although existing works have investigated the influence of employee's job insecurity on his or her perceptions or attitudes, those studies relatively have paid less attention to the influence of it on employee's behaviors, as well as to its intermediating mechanisms of the relationship between job insecurity and the behaviors.
