Abstract:Abusive supervision as a negative leadership behavior has caused intensive concerns of theorists and practitioners. A plenty Studies has examined the impact of abusive supervision on outcome variables and the effects of moderators, but how abusive supervision affect outcome variables has elicited little concern. In this paper, we consider selfefficacy as a mediation variable. Drawing on social exchange theory and conservation of resources theory, we explore the relationship between abusive supervision and job performance among a sample of 241 Chinese enterprise employees and MBAs. As predicted, abusive supervision is negatively related to subordinates’ task performance and contextual performance and selfefficacy can partly mediate the effect of abusive supervision on task performance and fully mediate the effect of abusive supervision on contextual performance.
