With the dramatic shifts in the workforce that have emerged in the post-COVID-19 world, workers' emotions have often presented very negatively, causing people to overtly display the dark aspects of their personality while at work. At the same time, organizations have been forced to adopt new technologies to fill the gaps in their desired outcomes and cope with changes in market demand. The ensuing clash between negative emotions and technological implementation may lead to intense conflicts and adverse work outcomes. This study hypothesizes a direct relationship between dark personality traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy) and technology acceptance. Using a multiple regression model with a sample of general workers from various industries ( = 396), the study found that narcissism and psychopathy significantly impacted technology acceptance, while Machiavellianism did not. The findings offer valuable theoretical, practical, and managerial insights.
在新冠疫情后的世界中，劳动力发生了巨大变化，员工的情绪往往呈现出非常消极的一面，导致人们在工作时公然展现出其性格中的阴暗面。与此同时，组织被迫采用新技术来填补预期成果中的差距，并应对市场需求的变化。由此产生的负面情绪与技术实施之间的冲突可能会导致激烈的冲突和不良的工作结果。本研究假设黑暗人格特质（自恋、马基雅维利主义和精神病态）与技术接受度之间存在直接关系。该研究以来自不同行业的普通员工为样本（n = 396），使用多元回归模型，发现自恋和精神病态对技术接受度有显著影响，而马基雅维利主义则没有。这些发现提供了有价值的理论、实践和管理见解。
