中文摘要

儘管過去文獻已證實主管支持容易造就滿意員工,但主管支持究竟是「如何」以及「何時」影響員工的工作滿意度,其中的心理歷程並不清楚。本研究試圖運用「不確定管理理論」,探討程序公平在主管支持與工作滿意度之間的中介效果,以及員工情緒不確定性在此中介歷程中的調節效果。透過問卷調查,本研究在兩個時間點蒐集台灣企業組織在職員工之資料,共計回收106份有效問卷。迴歸分析結果顯示,主管支持確實會透過程序公平以預測員工的工作滿意度。此外,在情緒不確定性高(高不確定性)時,程序公平對於主管支持與員工的工作滿意度才有顯著的中介效果;而在情緒不確定性低(低不確定性)時,程序公平的中介效果不顯著。最後提出研究結果之意涵、研究限制、未來研究方向及實務運用。

英文摘要

Although past research has showed that supervisor support may lead to employee satisfaction, the psychological process regarding ”how” and ”when” supervisor support is associated with employee job satisfaction is not clear. Drawing on ”uncertainty management theory,” we explored the mediation effect of procedural justice on the relationship between supervisor support and employee job satisfaction, and we also examined the moderated effect of employees' emotional uncertainty on this mediation process. Using questionnaire survey, we collected data at two time-points and obtained 106 usable observations for hypothesis testing. The results of regression analyses showed that supervisor support predict employee job satisfaction through procedural justice. Moreover, the mediation effect of procedural justice on the relationship between the supervisor support and employee job satisfaction was significant only for employee with high emotional uncertainty (high uncertainty), not for employee with low emotional uncertainty (low uncertainty). We discussed the implications of the findings, limitations, future research directions, and managerial implications at the end of this paper.
