Abstract Based on the norm of reciprocity and the theory of limited self-control resource, our study focused on the “dark side” of trust by exploring the effects of employees’ feeling trusted on ego depletion and unethical pro-supervisor behavior. Using the two-wave data from 309 participants, our study found that:
feeling trusted has a positive effect on reputation maintenance; feeling trusted has a positive effect on ego depletion through reputation maintenance; feeling trusted has a positive effect on supervisor identification; feeling trusted has a positive effect on unethical pro-supervisor behavior through supervisor identification; tenure with leader positively moderates the mediating effect of feeling trust on unethical pro-supervisor behavior indirectly through supervisor identification.
