What is the moderating role of supervisor close monitoring on the curvilinear relationship between self-efficacy and creativity?
This study examined the moderating role of supervisor close monitoring on the relationship between self-efficacy and creativity among MBA students in South Korea. Few studies have investigated the curvilinear relationship between self-efficacy and creativity as well as the moderating role of supervisor close monitoring.
This study used data from a sample of MBA students in an executive MBA program in South Korea. A questionnaire was used to collect data. The dyad data between supervisor and subordinate were collected. A total of 188 dyads were finally used for the study. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to test hypotheses.
The overall results show that self-efficacy has a curvilinear relationship with creativity and supervisor close monitoring negatively moderates the relationship. The closer the monitoring, the weaker the effect of self-efficacy on creativity and vice versa. To be more specific, when having low self-efficacy, high close monitoring yields higher creativity. When self-efficacy increases to a point, low close monitoring creates higher creativity. Till reaching the infection point, low close monitoring still creates higher creativity. But when having extremely high self-efficacy, high close monitoring turns to create higher creativity.
What I like about this study is that they examined the curvilinear relationship between self-efficacy and its outcomes. This is also a foundation for my future studies on ESE. They also used dyad data between supervisor and subordinate to prevent CMB. I think the main contributions of this study are the curvilinear and the moderating effect that was examined. However, they used Chen et al.’s ESE scale to measure employees’ self-efficacy which might not accurately measure employees’ self-efficacy.
