ABSTRACT

In an uncertain organizational environment, members are forced to achieve perfection and tend to pursue unrealistic high goals. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the social imperative perfectionism and the silence indicating the activation level of the organization and to identify the mediating role of job burnout. In order to verify the hypothesis, we used data from 423 workplaces in more than 300 companies in various occupations. The questionnaire identified the timing of variables. therefore common method bias was minimized. Positive emotions and negative emotions were used as control variables to clearly test hypotheses between variables. The results of analysis First, social prescribed perfectionism has a positive effect on silence. Second, job burnout showed positive (+) mediating effects between social prescribed perfectionism and silence. This implies that the higher the social prescribed perfectionism characteristic of the members in the organization, the higher the job burnout and the higher the tendency to silence. It can be deduced that the job burnout and silence are increased in the situation where the excellent and differentiated achievement is imposed from the organization and the leader rather than the silence due to the personal emotional state experienced in the organization. Therefore, based on the of the above results, the implications of the research and implications are suggested based on the theory of self – determination theory and the goal - path theory. In addition, the limitation of this study and the direction of future research are suggested.
