Experienced Microaggressions at Work and Female Employees’ Antagonistic Work Behaviors–The Role of Psychological Ownership and Co-Rumination
Supervisors’ Role in Mitigating Coworker Incivility
Drawing on cognitive appraisal theory and an appraisal perspective of justice, this study investigates how and when coworker incivility impairs employee psychological well-being. We propose and test a moderated mediation model where perceived job stress mediates the negative effect of coworker incivility on psychological well-being, and this indirect effect is buffered by supervisor interpersonal justice. We tested our model across three studies:…
Institutions, resource dependence and the dual nature of corruption in firm internationalisation
Despite extensive research on institutions and firm internationalisation, the joint firm and macro-level effects of informal relationships, that is, corruption, on firm internationalisation, particularly within specific industrial contexts (resource-based vs. non-resource industries), remain underexplored. To investigate how firms internationalise under 2 boundary conditions – resource dependency and variations in institutional quality – we apply…
Employee flourishing and moral obligation in extreme conditions
We extend the extant call for a flourishing perspective by examining dynamic processes involving moral obligations of organizations, work meaningfulness, organizational responsiveness, and enabling conditions and their effects on employee flourishing in three studies from an emerging country. Through a mixed-study design, we qualitatively explore (Study 1: N = 146), perceptions of employees about the moral obligations, enabling conditions, and re…
Extreme context exposure and counterproductive work behaviour
In recent years, research on extreme contexts has expanded significantly, focussing on management practices in unusual or atypical work environments. However, individual behavioural responses in these settings have received less attention. Our study addresses this gap by using Job‐Demand Resources (JD‐R) theory to explore how extreme context exposure (i.e. frequent exposure to extreme events) influences counterproductive work behaviour towards th…
The institutional development of Islamic finance in the Middle East
The Islamic finance sector has experienced rapid growth since its commercialisation in the 1970s. For many Muslim countries that gained independence from their colonial rulers, developing a financial industry that represented their faith and value belief systems gave the population a sense of identity. In our study, we traced the historical development of the Islamic finance sector in the Middle East. We applied a post-colonial perspective and th…

Learning to Live with an Unruly Consuming Body
Past research shows that successful consumer learning takes place in environments that support cooperative communities of practice, that enable access to refined didactic resources, and that provide a safe, sympathetic backstage for a controllable and able learning body to durably transition from one repertoire to another. This study complements existing research by investigating a group of lactose-intolerant consumers who must learn to transitio…
Determinations of system justification versus psychological reactance consumer behaviours in online taboo markets
Purpose This research aims to understand the determinants of consumers' behaviour and motivations to buy taboo items online. Two theoretical lenses, theories of psychological reactance and system justification, are invoked to frame the role of online shopping in shaping consumer behaviour in taboo markets. Design/methodology/approach A naturalistic inquiry paradigm was used to test a sample of 34 Saudi women who were buying taboo products online.…

Do submission devices influence online review ratings differently across different types of platforms? A big data analysis
Deploying big data analytical techniques to retrieve and analyze a large volume of more than 2.7 million online consumer reviews (OCRs), this work sheds light on how mobile devices used by consumers to post online reviews influence their satisfaction with services. More specifically, we conduct a multi-platform study of TripAdvisor.com and Booking.com OCRs pertaining to hotel services across eight leading tourism destination cities in the America…
