“…The study first examined the relationships between the variables. The correlation results of the study show that organizational cynicism, organizational commitment, and leader-member exchange are negatively related, while organizational commitment and leader-member exchange are positively related.These results are consistent with the results of research on the relationships between organizational commitment and organizational cynicism (Çınar, 2019;Han et al, 2013;Kaygın et al, 2017;Mouso, 2017;Özdem & Sezer, 2019;Şeker, 2020, Şimşek, 2020, and leadermember exchange (Graen & Scandura, 1987;Leow & Khong, 2009;Gomez, 2020).…”

The Organizational Cynicism Scale: an Adaptation on the Russian-Speaking Sample

“…Исследования показывают, что организационный цинизм имеет отрицательную связь со многими переменными, такими как производительность и качество труда [37], воспринимаемая поддержка со стороны организации, гордость за корпорацию [16], приверженность организации [17; 30], качество жизни [9; 40; 45] и готовность к изменениям [40]. Организационный цинизм влечет падение уровня удовлетворенности трудом (job satisfaction) и разрушение моральной атмосферы корпорации (organizational spirituality) [23; 26], нарушение профессиональных обяза-тельств (organizational commitment), искажение [24] профессиональной идентичности и отчуждение от профессии и может быть связан с гендерным неравенством и насилием на рабочем месте [5; 42]. Эффектом организационного цинизма может быть так называемое контрпродуктивное поведение (counterproductive work behaviours) на работе -феномен, охватывающий широкий спектр деструктивных действий, от саботирования своих профессиональных обязанностей до откровенной агрессии и асоциальных действий [31].…”
