“…Such behaviours exhibited by employees disrupt the normal activities of the organisation and/or its employees, and create obstacles for efficient operations (An, Boyajian, & O’Brien, 2016;Sackett, Berry, Wiemann, & Laczo, 2006). Deviant work behaviours involve a wide variety of negative behaviours, for example: (a) production deviance, (b) theft of property, (c) withdrawal of work responsibilities, (d) intentional abuse of fellow colleagues, and (e) sabotage of human relationships or work equipment (Liang et al., 2018;Spector et al., 2006). Consequently, Deviant work behaviours generally affect the psychology and well‐being of employees in the form of (a) decreased productivity, (b) increased absenteeism, (c) decreased morale of employees and (d) high turnover rate (e.g.…”

“…Lian et al., 2014). Although the negative consequences of deviant work behaviours are apparent, deviant work behaviours continue to emerge as a major concern in many industrial sectors (Liang et al., 2018), particularly in the health care industries of both developed (e.g. USA and Canada; see Zaghini et al., 2016) and developing countries (e.g.…”

Effects of social undermining in families on deviant workplace behaviours in Pakistani nurses

Aims:To examine whether negative emotions could mediate the association linking social undermining in families (i.e. negative judgements that prevent the maintenance of positive familial ties) to nurses' deviant workplace behaviours (i.e. behaviours that disrupt the normal functioning of organisations), and whether neuroticism could moderate the association linking social undermining in families to negative emotions by adopting the spillover theory.Background: This study tested a moderated mediation model based on the hospital industry in Pakistan. Negative familial stressors can disrupt work-related behaviours, but it remains unknown as to how negative emotions and personality traits can affect this family-to-work relationship.Method: Temporally segregated survey data were collected from nurses (n = 325 dyads) working in the hospitals of Pakistan.Results: Findings showed that social undermining in families triggered deviant workplace behaviours in Pakistani nurses through the mediating effect of negative emotions.High levels of neuroticism strengthened the association linking social undermining in families to negative emotions.Conclusion: Our moderated mediated model showed that family-related stressors can "spill over" to the workplace and disrupt employee behaviours under the mediating effect of negative emotions. The perception of family-related negative emotions can also be increased among individuals with high levels of neuroticism. Implications for Nursing Management:We recommend the establishment of social support networks and workshops for nurses to cope with the negative emotions they experienced from family and non-work domains.

“…The survey of objects for catharsis through destruction shows a strong tension between the thousand-year tradition of object destruction and the scientific controversy on whether this behavior is beneficial. In recent years, researchers have attempted to settle the contradiction by showing that venting does not reduce feelings of anger, but has other benefits, like improving people's mood [12], sense of fairness [47], and relieving physical pain [66]. Others suggested that physical venting combined with writing or talking about a negative emotion can improve wellbeing [56,28].…”

The intersection between social, technical, and economic factors biases new product development to focus on utilitarian value. However, objects that serve alternative goals, behaviors and emotions have accompanied humankind for millennia. This article speculates about robotic objects for one non-utilitarian behavior and its implications: destruction. Robots and objects for destruction have a shared history of embodiment and heavily rely on their embodiment for interaction. Yet the topic of destruction is not very common in the field of human-robot interaction (HRI). Thus, we (1) present a survey of ethnographic investigations that show modes of HRI related to destruction, and (2) develop speculative concepts of interaction that demonstrate these ideas in HRI. By exemplifying a broad range of speculative uses of destruction in HRI and grounding it in literature, we hope this theoretical and conceptual article will bring a fresh perspective on alternative interactions with robots.

“…As in medical experiments where some participants fail to take the treatment as prescribed, participants in social sciences experiments might not comply with instructions in an experiment (e.g., L. H. Liang et al, 2018, where participants had to do a task that they did not find appropriate and some did not comply). Note, this issue is different from failing a manipulation check, wherein a participant may still have been treated (though the below remedy will also correct for possible biased estimates in this case too).…”

Although experiments are the gold standard for establishing causality, several threats can undermine the internal validity of experimental findings. In this article, we first discuss these threats, which include the lack of consequential decisions and outcomes, deception, demand effects and unfair comparisons, as well as issues concerning statistical validity (e.g., minimum sample size per cell, estimating variance correctly). We expose each problem, show potential solutions, and bring to the fore issues of relevance of the findings (i.e., external and ecological validity). Thereafter, we take stock of the state‐of‐the‐science regarding validity threats using a representative sample of 468 recent experiments from 258 articles published in top‐tier journals. We compare research practices in three fields of study—management, social psychology, and economics, which regularly use experimental research—to operations management, which has more recently begun to use the experimental paradigm. Our results underscore the importance for journals and authors to follow what we identify to be best‐practice methodological suggestions (i.e., the “ten commandments” of experimental research). We show that—on average—markers of methodological rigor and generalizability positively and significantly predict the citations received by published articles. Finally, given that experiments are infeasible in some settings, we conclude with a brief review of often overlooked quasi‐experimental designs, which are useful for generating strong counterfactuals and hence allow making causal claims in the field.
