Previous research about inclusive leadership and creativity has produced contradictory results. The present study tried to explain the contradictory findings based on the antecedent-benefit-cost framework (ABC). We found that inclusive leadership promoted subordinates' creativity by enhancing subordinates' psychological safety but discouraged subordinates' creativity by reducing challenge-related stress. The present study illustrated the complex mediating mechanism of inclusive leadership's impact on creativity, presenting a complementary explanation of the conflicting relationships between inclusive leadership and creativity. In addition, we validated the ABC framework.
先前关于包容性领导与创造力的研究产生了相互矛盾的结果。本研究试图基于前因-收益-成本框架（ABC）来解释这些相互矛盾的发现。我们发现，包容性领导通过增强下属的心理安全感来促进下属的创造力，但通过减少与挑战相关的压力来抑制下属的创造力。本研究阐明了包容性领导对创造力影响的复杂中介机制，对包容性领导与创造力之间相互冲突的关系给出了补充性解释。此外，我们验证了ABC框架。
