  • Title: Exploring the role of emotions in injustice perceptions and retaliation.
    Author: Barclay LJ, Skarlicki DP, Pugh SD.
    Journal: J Appl Psychol; 2005 Jul; 90(4):629-43. PubMed ID: 16060783.
    Abstract:
    Although organizational justice scholars often describe unfairness as an emotionally laden experience, the role of emotion is underresearched. In a study of individuals who experienced being laid off (N = 173), the authors found that outcome favorability interacts with both procedural and interactional justice to predict participants' emotions. The pattern of interaction differed for inward-focused (i.e., shame and guilt) and outward-focused (i.e., anger and hostility) negative emotions. Attributions of blame mediated the relationship between fairness perceptions and outward-focused negative emotion. Outward-focused emotion mediated the relationship between fairness perceptions and retaliation.
