The authors examined whether safety-specific trust moderates or mediates the relationship between safety-specific transformational leadership and subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. Data from 139 subordinate-supervisor dyads were collected from the United Kingdom construction industry and analyzed using hierarchical regression models. Results showed that safety-specific trust moderated rather than mediated the effects of safety-specific transformational leaders on subordinates' behavior. Specifically, in conditions of high and moderate safety-specific trust, leaders had a significant effect on subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. However, in conditions of low safety-specific trust, leaders did not significantly influence subordinates' safety citizenship behavior. The implications of these findings for general safety theory and practice are discussed.
作者们研究了特定安全信任是否调节或中介了特定安全变革型领导与下属安全公民行为之间的关系。从英国建筑业收集了139对下属-上级的数据,并使用分层回归模型进行分析。结果表明,特定安全信任调节而非中介了特定安全变革型领导对下属行为的影响。具体而言,在高和中等特定安全信任条件下,领导对下属的安全公民行为有显著影响。然而,在低特定安全信任条件下,领导对下属的安全公民行为没有显著影响。讨论了这些发现对一般安全理论和实践的启示。
