  • Strengths-based leadership and employee work engagement

    Open AccessJixin Wang, Marianne Van Woerkom et al.ARTICLEJournal of Vocational Behavior2023

    Strengths-based leadership helps employees identify, utilize, and develop their strengths. Does such leadership facilitate employee work engagement and performance? In this study, we integrate Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) and Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) theories to hypothesize that strengths-based leadership is positively related to employee task performance through employee work engagement, and that this effect is moderated by LMX quality. We c…

  • Do bad apples do good deeds? The role of morality

    Open AccessJinqiang Zhu, Shiyong XuARTICLEBusiness Ethics, the Environment…2022

    Research on counterproductive work behaviours (CWBs) has predominantly adopted a victim‐centric approach to focus on deleterious effects on organisations while overlooking how displaying CWBs affects the employees themselves and their subsequent behaviours. Drawing on moral cleansing and moral licencing theories, we tested how and when employees’ CWBs influenced their subsequent organisational citizenship behaviours (OCBs) and whether OCBs affect…

  • The indirect effect of leader humility on employee creativity through a growth mindset for creativity

    Open AccessWa Yang, Shiyong XuARTICLEJournal of Pacific Rim Psychology2022

    Drawing on social learning theory, the authors hypothesized that leader humility would have an indirect effect on employee creativity through employees’ belief in the malleability of creativity (a growth creative mindset). They further hypothesized that this indirect effect would be particularly pronounced in research-and-development-related work teams. They tested these hypotheses in a survey study of 476 Chinese employees. The results support b…

  • Paradoxical leader behaviour effects on employee taking charge

    Feng Li-ping, Yanjun Liu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychology in Africa2022

    We investigated how and when paradoxical leader behaviour (PLB) positively influenced employee taking charge, a typical exemplar of proactive behaviours. Participants were 644 employees of a large Chinese high-tech manufacturing company (male = 50.8%; mean age = 29.63 years, SD = 5.72 years). Based on hierarchical regression analysis and bootstrap analysis, the results indicated that PLB was associated with a higher probability of employee taking…

  • How and when paradoxical leadership fosters employee innovative behaviours

    Feng Li-ping, Mengyi Li et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychology in Africa2022

    We investigated the association between paradoxical leadership and employee innovative behaviours, and the role of proactive personality and work engagement in the relationship. Participants were 514 employees of a large Chinese internet company (female = 259; mean age = 29.85 years, SD = 5.88 years). Following a moderated mediating model, results indicated that paradoxical leadership was associated with higher employee innovative behaviours via …

  • Content and construct of counterproductive work behavior in a chinese context

    Open AccessShiyong Xu, Qing Wang et al.ARTICLESocial Behavior and Personality…2013

    We conducted 2 studies in order to explore the content and construct of counterproductive work behavior (CWB) in a Chinese cultural context. In Study 1 we used a 4-category construct of CWB in China and the results showed that supervisor-related CWB was different from that identified in Western studies. In Study 2 it was indicated that Chinese employees' interpersonal-related CWB involved indirect communication. The property-related CWB engaged i…

  • Maintain a Firm Grasp on Brand Names

    Open AccessShiyong Xu, Xu ShiyongARTICLEChinese Education & Society1999

    As though it were brought about by the "brand-name effect," a phenomenon has appeared in society wherein "students strive to enter brand-name universities, and work units scramble for brand-name graduates." Personages concerned have failed to reach an agreement on this phenomenon; some express deep concern, others lash out both in speech and writing. I myself, however, maintain that the "brand-name effect" brings more advantages than disadvantage…
