Abstract: Drawing on attribution theory, particularly the sinister attribution error perspective, we theorize that injury attribution is an important cognitive mechanism that drives leaders to respond to subordinate deviance with abusive supervision. Leaders’ perceptions of their own value in the organization also may dampen the positive effect of subordinate deviance on abusive supervision, through injury attribution. We tested this theoretical model with field and experimental studies. In Study 1, we found that subordinates’ supervisor-directed deviance related significantly to abusive supervision, regardless of leaders’ perceptions of their own value in the organization; however, subordinate production deviance related significantly to abusive supervision only if leaders perceived their value in the organization to be low. A follow-up experimental Study 2 showed that after controlling for ego depletion, a self-control failure mechanism suggested by previous research, subordinate supervisor-directed deviance indirectly led to supervisors’ abusive behavior intentions through increased injury attribution, regardless of leaders’ perceptions of their own value in the organization. However, subordinate production deviance indirectly led to supervisors’ abusive behavior intentions through increased injury attribution only if leaders perceived their value in the organization as low.
