The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of role stress(role conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload) on employee silence behavior and the mediating effect of psychological ownership between two variables. In addition, this study examined the moderating effect of perceived supervisor support on the relationship between psychological ownership and employee silence behavior. Using the survey research method, data were collected from 310 employees who were working in a variety of organizations in Korea. As results, role conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload had positive relationships with employee silence behavior. And psychological ownership had mediation effect in the relationship between role conflict/role ambiguity and employee silence behavior. The perceived supervisor support had moderation effect on the relationship between psychological ownership and employee silence behavior. That is, the negative relationship between psychological ownership and employee silence behavior was stronger when the perceived supervisor support was high rather than low. Finally, based on these results, we discussed the implications and limitations of the study, and the suggestions for the future research.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the relationship between perceived supervisor support and employee silence behavior, the mediating roles of acquiescent silence motivation and defensive silence motivation in the relationship between perceived supervisor support and employee silence behavior, the relationship between perceived procedural justice and employee silence behavior, and the mediating roles of acquiescent silence motivation and opportunistic silence motivation in the relationship between perceived procedural justice and employee silence behavior. Using the survey research method, data were collected from 498 employees who were working in a variety of organizations in Korea. The results of this study showed that perceived supervisor support is negatively related with employee silence behavior. And the relationship between perceived supervisor support and employee silence behavior is partially mediated by acquiescent silence motivation and defensive silence motivation. Also, perceived procedural justice is negatively related with employee silence behavior. The relationship between perceived procedural justice and employee silence behavior is fully mediated by acquiescent silence motivation and opportunistic silence motivation. Based on these results, we discussed the implications of study, limitations, and the suggestions for future research.

According to psychology of sustainability, healthy organizations conduct successful businesses, regenerate employees’ belongingness, and promote organizational and individual growth and change. In line with this assumption, this study investigates: a) The relation between perceived supervisor support and the affective, normative, and continuance components of commitment to change (CtC), and b) the mediating role of organizational identification on the relation between perceived supervisor support and components of CtC. Participants were 243 employees of a company that, in order to introduce a new organizational vision, was implementing multiple change initiatives. Results show the direct effect of perceived supervisor support on affective and normative CtC, the partial mediating effect of organizational identification on affective and normative CtC, and the full mediating effect on continuance CtC. Such results extend previous studies and are in line with the assumptions of the psychology of sustainability: Supervisor support can be considered as a primary preventive intervention that increases employees’ belongingness and encourages them to commit to change initiatives.
