dc.description.abstractThis study examined the influence of two supervisory styles (abusive supervision and ethical leadership) on the motivation to engage in supervisor and coworker-targeted impression management. Expectancy theory was examined as a theoretical mechanism for these relationships. Data was collected from 288 working adults regarding supervision, task interdependence with coworkers, social learning behaviors, and engagement in supervisor and coworker-targeted assertive and defensive impression management strategies. Results show that the motivation and use of IM varies across targets. Results also show ethical and abusive supervision have differential direct effects on strategy use towards both supervisors and coworkers. These findings and their implications for future research are discussed.en_US
