内容简介:

Research demonstrates that employee creativity can have paradoxical effects that can be constructive or destructive. Similarly, research shows that pride predicts both constructive and destructive behaviors. This present research seeks to connect and integrate these divergent literatures in ways that shed light on when, how, and why employee creativity and pride affect coworker-directed constructive and destructive behaviors. Integrating attribution theory and the cognitive appraisal theory of emotions, we build a theoretical model that we test in three time-lagged field studies. Results demonstrate that employee creativity predicts authentic pride when creativity is attributed to effort, and it predicts hubristic pride when creativity is attributed to ability. Acknowledging the importance of context, we also show that average coworker creativity dampens the positive effect of creativity on hubristic pride more than on authentic pride. Lastly, authentic pride motivates coworker helping and inhibits coworker incivility, whereas hubristic pride motivates coworker incivility and inhibits coworker helping. Overall, the present research sheds new light on workplace creativity by explicating the cognitive and affective mechanisms that account for the paradoxical effects of creativity on coworker behaviors.
