Purpose This study aims to utilize the cognitive appraisal theory of stress and coping by conducting a joint investigation of the mediating role of knowledge hiding behaviors in the relationship of exploitative leadership on employee’s work related attitudes (i.e. turnover intentions) and behaviors (e.g. job performance, creativity) and fear of negative evaluation in influencing this mediation. Design/methodology/approach Using the Preacher and Hayes’ (2004) moderated-mediation approach, the authors tested the model by collecting multi-wave and two-source data from employees and fellow peers (n = 281) working in the service sector of Pakistan. Findings Results of the study demonstrate that exploitative leadership adversely influences one’s performance and turnover intentions through knowledge hiding behaviors. The fear of negative evaluation moderates the indirect effects of exploitative leadership on employee’s outcomes through knowledge hiding behaviors such that these indirect effects are stronger for individuals possessing low levels of fear of negative evaluation. Originality/value The current study contributes to knowledge management and dark leadership literature by suggesting knowledge hiding behaviors as a process through which exploitative leaders unveil their negative effects on employee’s outcomes. This study is also unique in the sense, as it posits that employees might vary because of their dispositional traits (i.e. low fear of negative evaluation) in responding to exploitative leadership with greater knowledge hiding behaviors.


The purpose of this study was to provide policy and educational suggestions for solving the presentation anxiety of middle school students, by analyzing the moderated mediation effect of growth mindset on the relationship between negative evaluation and presentation anxiety through self-esteem. The study utilized the SPSS PC + Win. 23 and SPSS PROCESS macro 3.1. The main statistical technique used in the study was to utilize a frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and moderated mediation effect analysis. In this case, the effect analysis verification utilized a bootstrap method, with 5,000 samples of sub-trap and a 95% confidence interval. First, it is noted that the higher the negative evaluation, the higher the anxiety of presentation, and the higher the self-esteem, the lower the anxiety of presentation. Second, the growth mindset moderated the path between a negative evaluation, self-esteem, and anxiety in the participants. Based on the results of this study, suggestions for recommended future research were suggested.
