进行了两项研究,操作化的负面辅导经验的结构,建立内容的有效性,并测试基于理论的预测与相关变量的一个法则网络。正如所预测的那样,导师疏远行为和缺乏导师专业知识的负面经验更经常报告在分离阶段和正式安排的指导关系中的门徒之间。所有类型的经验都与职业相关的支持,社会心理支持和学习,疏远行为与职业支持和学习的关系最密切。关系互补性,社会交换的看法,意图离开的关系,抑郁的情绪,心理工作退缩也发现了显着的相关性。消极的指导也不同于积极的指导,一般工作场所的压力,并在工作中不满意的社会关系,提供歧视有效性证据。最后,消极的指导在预测保护结果方面的解释力超过积极的指导。研究结果进行了讨论,在未来的研究指导以及应用实践。
Two studies were conducted to operationalize the construct of negative mentoring experiences, establish content validity, and test theory-based predictions associated with a nomological network of related variables. As predicted, the negative experiences of mentor Distancing Behavior and Lack of Mentor Expertise were more often reported in the separation phase and among proteges in formally arranged mentoring relationships. All types of experiences were related to career-related support, psychosocial support, and learning, with Distancing Behavior being most highly related to career support and learning. Significant correlations were also found with relational complementarity, social exchange perceptions, intentions to leave the relationship, depressed mood, and psychological job withdrawal. Negative mentoring was also distinct from positive mentoring, general workplace stress, and dissatisfying social relationships at work, providing discriminant validity evidence. Finally, negative mentoring had explanatory power in predicting protegeoutcomes over and above positive mentoring. The findings are discussed in terms of future research on mentoring as well as applied practice.
