Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 心理學研究所 === 101 === Goal orientation has played an important role in organizational research field recently. But in the past, most research focused on the effect of one goal orientation instead of three goal orientations simultaneously. Besides, very few past research mentioned how the relationship between outcome and goal orientation will be affected in the interpersonal context. In order to solve these problems, this research attempts to find out the relationship among three goal orientations and the outcomes that is related to single goal orientation in the past research. The other purpose of this research is to test how supervisor’s goal orientations moderate the relationship between subordinate’s goal orientations and the outcomes. HLM was used to analyze the nested data consisting of 72 supervisors and 189 subordinates. The result shows that three goal orientations do have different effects on the creative performance and withdrawal behaviors but not on job performance. The results also indicate that supervisor’s learning goal orientation do moderate the relationship between subordinate’s learning goal orientation and work performance and creative performance separately, but not on withdrawal behavior. Supervisor’s prove performance goal orientation and avoid performance goal orientation have no moderating effect on the relationship among subordinate’s goal orientations and outcomes. At last, results, implication, limitation and future direction have been discussed.
