Power of Narcissism Unleashed
Despite accumulating evidence surrounding the importance of leader narcissism for follower outcomes, its effects on team outcomes, particularly team proactivity, remain opaque. As team proactivity has proven to be a critical factor for organizations to survive and thrive in today's complicated business environment, it is necessary to come to a better understanding of how and when leader narcissism helps or hurts team proactivity. To clarify this …
CEO personality

We begin by outlining the motivation for examining this area of research, emphasizing its significance in understanding how CEO personality impacts organizations. Next, we synthesize key findings from pivotal studies on various personality traits, providing an integrated view of the current knowledge base. We then empl…
A Mixed Blessing? Explaining the Double-Edged Effects of Leader Leniency on Employee Task Performance
Paradoxical effects of narcissism on creative performance
What is the effect of trait narcissism on creative performance? Although both constructs share an emphasis on uniqueness and novelty, prior investigations of the narcissism–creative performance relationship have produced inconsistent findings and failed to provide conclusive answers to this question. One possible reason for the seemingly contradictory evidence is that extant research has examined the influences of leader and follower narcissism s…
Rotten apples in bad barrels
There is an inherent interest in the implications of psychopathic employees, although attention, to date, is more pronounced in public media than in the scientific literature. In this study, we use behavioral threshold theory to propose a curvilinear relationship between employees' psychopathy and their counterproductive work behavior (CWB). Our predictions were corroborated across three studies involving two countries while controlling for narci…
Birds of a feather
Narcissism and tradition
Purpose Although there have been considerable amounts of research documenting the effects of narcissism on workplace outcomes, studies of the impact of narcissism on job performance have produced inconclusive results. This study aims to provide insight into this issue by using a new model of narcissism, the Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Concept model to explore the processes by which narcissism can impact job performance. Design/methodology…
Does leadership still not need emotional intelligence? Continuing “The Great EI Debate”
Employee voice and coworker support
Although a number of studies have examined the antecedents of employee voice, knowledge on the consequences of voice, especially in terms of the coworkers' responses, is limited. The current research addresses this important issue by examining when and why employee voice, as a citizenship behavior, can facilitate coworker support. Drawing on expectancy violation theory, we propose that higher job demands strengthen the positive relationship betwe…
Using retest-adjusted correlations as indicators of the semantic similarity of items
Determining whether different items provide the same information or mean the same thing within a population is a central concern when determining whether different scales or constructs are overlapping or redundant. In the present study, we suggest that retest-adjusted correlations provide a valuable means of adjusting for item-level unreliability. More exactly, we suggest dividing the estimated correlation between items X and Y measured over meas…
Both a curse and a blessing? A social cognitive approach to the paradoxical effects of leader narcissism
Narcissism is widely considered to be a trait that is commonly found in leaders, but also a characteristic that is frequently a source of problems for their organizations. However, there is accumulating consensus in the organizational literature that, rather than a necessary evil, narcissism can potentially be a mixed blessing for leaders. The present study sets out to reconcile the paradoxical effects of leader narcissism by exploring when and h…
A psychometric investigation of harmonious and obsessive work passion
Despite widespread belief that passion is important for workplace success, research has failed to keep pace with theorizing in this domain, particularly as it pertains to measurement. The Dualistic Model of Passion, which is composed of harmonious passion (HP) and obsessive passion (OP), has been frequently adapted by management researchers. Two different versions of its measure, the Passion Scale, are concurrently in use. Therefore, we collected…

Relationships between personality facets and accident involvement among truck drivers
Avoiding or embracing social relationships? A conservation of resources perspective of leader narcissism, leader–member exchange differentiation, and follower voice
In this study, we draw from the conservation of resources theory and the narcissism literature to examine why and when narcissistic leaders develop and maintain differentiated social relationships with followers in a group setting, therefore demotivating follower voice. Using data from 457 employees and their 95 supervisors working at a large Chinese consulting company, we tested and found support for our hypotheses that leader narcissism had a n…

Systems Perspective of Amazon Mechanical Turk for Organizational Research
Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is becoming a prevalent source of quick and cost effective data for organizational research, but there are questions about the appropriateness of the platform for organizational research. To answer these questions, we conducted an integrative review based on 75 papers evaluating the MTurk platform and 250 MTurk samples used in organizational research. This integrative review provides four contributions: (1) we analy…
Response Speed and Response Consistency as Mutually Validating Indicators of Data Quality in Online Samples
We examine the appropriateness of response speed and response consistency as data quality indicators within online samples. Across several inventories, results show that response consistency decreases dramatically at response rates faster than 1 second per item. Our results suggest that careless responding may be fairly common in online samples and often functions to increase the expected correlation between items in a survey, which has implicati…
Much ado about grit
Grit has been presented as a higher order personality trait that is highly predictive of both success and performance and distinct from other traits such as conscientiousness. This paper provides a meta-analytic review of the grit literature with a particular focus on the structure of grit and the relation between grit and performance, retention, conscientiousness, cognitive ability, and demographic variables. Our results based on 584 effect size…
How leader and follower attachment styles are mediated by trust
The current study utilizes attachment theory to understand how leader–follower relationships impact emotional and behavioral outcomes in the workplace. Specifically, we examine the roles of two dysfunctional attachment styles – anxious and avoidant attachment – as determinants of trust in leaders, stress and citizenship behaviors. Results showed that followers with anxious attachment orientations reported experiencing more stress, whereas followe…
Narcissism and Leadership
Past empirical studies relating narcissism to leadership have offered mixed results. This study integrates prior research findings via meta‐analysis to make 4 contributions to theory on narcissism and leadership, by (a) distinguishing between leadership emergence and leadership effectiveness, to reveal that narcissism displays a positive relationship with leadership emergence, but no relationship with leadership effectiveness; (b) showing narciss…
Years of higher-order confirmatory factor analysis in the organizational sciences
We discuss how confirmatory factor analysis results should be used to examine potential higher-order constructs and advocate that researchers present five types of evidence, which are as follows: (1) the ability of the higher-order model to reproduce the observed covariation among manifest variables; (2) the ability of the higher-order model to reproduce the observed covariation among manifest variables better than more parsimonious alternative m…
Effects of Psychological Capital on Mental Health and Substance Abuse
Luthans, Youssef, Sweetman, and Harms proposed a holistic approach to psychological capital that involves examining psychological capital and its effects across multiple life domains, including work, relationships, and health. This article focuses on the effects of psychological capital on objective health outcomes. Using data from a sample of 1,889 U.S. Army soldiers, we demonstrate that soldiers with higher levels of psychological capital prior…
The relations between actual similarity and experienced similarity
The dark side of personality at work
Although there has been increasing interest in dark personality traits in the organizational sciences, these characteristics remain relatively understudied and somewhat misunderstood. The present manuscript aims to clarify some of the issues surrounding dark personality traits by discussing the history of dark personality traits, how they relate to normal personality traits, their relative importance as determinants of organizational outcomes, an…

Perceiver effects as projective tests
In 3 studies, we document various properties of perceiver effects--or how an individual generally tends to describe other people in a population. First, we document that perceiver effects have consistent relationships with dispositional characteristics of the perceiver, ranging from self-reported personality traits and academic performance to well-being and measures of personality disorders, to how liked the person is by peers. Second, we documen…
Not all conscientiousness scales change alike
Previous research has shown that traits from the domain of conscientiousness tend to increase with age. However, previous research has not tested whether all aspects of conscientiousness change with age. The present research tests age differences in multiple facets of conscientiousness (industriousness, orderliness, impulse control, reliability, and conventionality) using multiple methods and multiple samples. In a community sample (N = 274) and …
Meeting the Leadership Challenge of Employee Well-Being Through Relationship PsyCap and Health PsyCap
Increasing recognition is being given to the role that employee overall well-being plays in desired outcomes of today’s organizations. To help organizational leaders searching for understanding and answers, we propose that the positive core construct of psychological capital (or simply PsyCap), consisting of the positive psychological resources of hope, efficacy, resiliency, and optimism can be extended into the well-being domain. Although PsyCap…
Measuring implicit psychological constructs in organizational behavior
Implicit psychological constructs are effective predictors of behavioral outcomes but are rarely used in organizational settings because of real or imagined problems with measurement validity and administration. To address these concerns, we present a means of assessing implicit constructs quickly and easily by using psychological capital as an example. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

Emotional Intelligence and Transformational and Transactional Leadership
The purpose of this study is to evaluate claims that emotional intelligence is significantly related to transformational and other leadership behaviors. Results (based on 62 independent samples) indicated a validity estimate of .59 when ratings of both emotional intelligence and leadership behaviors were provided by the same source (self, subordinates, peers, or superiors). However, when ratings of the constructs were derived from different sourc…

Recognizing Leadership at a Distance
The present study investigated whether personality and leadership evaluations based on photographs of Chinese CEOs made by Western raters were accurate at predicting organizational outcomes. Consistent with implicit leadership prototypes held by Westerners, perceived effectiveness was associated with higher levels of perceived intelligence, dominance, and positivity. However, actual organization performance was associated with the culturally appr…
