Traditionality, supervisor-subordinate guanxi and university teachers' voice behavior: an empirical exploration in the context of Chinese culture

摘要

Drawing on social exchange theory, this study investigates whether supervisor-subordinate guanxi(SSG) promotes voice behavior in university teachers. Posting organizational identification as a mediator and traditionality as a moderator, we constructed a moderated mediation model. A sample of 218 Chinese university teachers completed a two-stage questionnaire, and the data obtained were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that SSG can positively predict the voice behavior of university teachers, and organizational identification partially mediates the relationship between SSG and voice behavior. Moreover, traditionality negatively moderates the relationship of SSG on voice behavior via organizational identification.
