How University Teachers’ Perception of Academic Power Promotes the Voice Behavior

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

Affected by the organizational commitment level, the voice behavior stimulated by the perception of academic power of university teachers helps the university to absorb their experience and wisdom in daily governance. Using empirical data, this article reveals how mediating variables centered on the perception of academic power of university teachers promote voice behavior. The main results show that teachers’ organizational commitment cannot directly promote voice behavior; Compared with other types of power perception, academic power perception cannot directly promote advice behavior; However, the organizational situation—high-level norms of benevolence and power—can stimulate and regulate the positive mediating effect of University Teachers’ academic power perception on advice behavior; Only when a high level of academic power perception and a high level of benevolence and power norms are both available, can academic power perception have a significant positive mediating effect on advice behavior.
