Does Domestic Intimate Partner Aggression Affect Career Outcomes? The Role of Perceived Organizational Support.

Drawing upon the conservation of resources theory, we developed and tested a moderated mediation model linking domestic intimate partner aggression ( IPA) to job performance and career advancement. Our model posits that the indirect relationship between IPA and career advancement via in-role performance and organizational citizenship behaviors ( OCBs) is moderated by perceived organizational support ( POS). Overall, multisource and multiwave data obtained from two independent samples of employed women from the Philippines supported our predictions. Specifically, results suggest that: (1) IPA was negatively associated with supervisor-rated in-role performance and OCBs; (2) there was a stronger negative relationship between IPA and in-role performance and OCBs for employees with low as opposed to those with high levels of POS; and (3) the conditional indirect effects of IPA in predicting supervisor-rated promotability and actual promotion via in-role performance and OCBs were stronger under conditions of low as opposed to high POS. Implications for theory and practice are discussed. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
