验证了在模拟组织中,能力作为稳定实体或可获得技能的诱导概念会影响管理绩效的自我调节机制的假设。作为管理决策者,他们必须将员工与子职能相匹配,并发现和应用管理规则,以实现一个困难的组织绩效水平。在能力实体概念下执行具有挑战性的管理任务的人会出现自我效能感的丧失、组织目标的降低、分析策略的效率降低。在可获得技能能力概念下管理组织的人维持了他们的自我效能感,设定了具有挑战性的组织目标,并有效地使用了分析策略。这些自我调节因素的差异伴随着组织绩效的实质性差异。通径分析表明,感知自我效能感对组织绩效既有直接影响,又通过影响组织绩效分析策略产生间接影响。个人目标也通过分析策略的中介作用影响组织绩效。前组织绩效与后组织绩效之间的关系完全由自我调节因素的综合影响来中介。
Tested the hypothesis that induced conceptions of ability as a stable entity or as an acquirable skill would affect self-regulatory mechanisms governing performance in a simulated organization. Ss served as managerial decision makers in which they had to match employees to subfunctions and to discover and apply managerial rules to achieve a difficult level of organizational performance. Those who performed the challenging managerial task under an entity conception of ability suffered a loss in perceived self-efficacy, lowered their organizational goals, and became less efficient in their analytic strategies. Ss who managed the organization under an acquirable skill conception of ability sustained their perceived self-efficacy, set challenging organizational goals, and used analytic strategies effectively. These divergences in self-regulatory factors were accompanied by substantial differences in organizational performance. Path analysis revealed that perceived self-efficacy had both a direct effect on organizational performance and an indirect effect through its influence on analytic strategies. Personal goals also affected organizational performance through the mediation of analytic strategies. The relation of prior organizational performance to subsequent performance was mediated entirely by the combined influence of the self-regulatory factors.
