challenge-oriented stress and employee creativity such that it will
be stronger when positive task feedback is high. Table 2 shows that
the two-way interaction terms for challenge-related stress and positive
task feedback were significant on employee creativity (ˇ = .21,
p < .01). Tests of simple slopes, as displayed in Fig. 1, indicates that
the relationship was positively significant when positive task feedback
from supervisor was high (simple slope = 61, p < .01). When
positive task feedback was low, the relationship did not change
and was not significant (simple slope = 08, n.s.). Thus, Hypothesis 1
is supported.
