On the other hand, negative task feedback is always less welcome
and less likely to be accepted (Fedor et al., 1989), particularly
by individuals experiencing hindrance-oriented stress such as role
ambiguous and job insecurity which are difficult to overcome.
Negative task feedback from supervisors clearly signals that a
supervisor is dissatisfied with an individual’s performance; an individual
suffering high hindrance stress will project more negative
feelings toward his or her job this may be due to the frustration of
the unclear performance goals and job insecurity. Thus, employees
under hindrance stress will become tired of conflicting demands
and negative task feedback from supervisors, accentuating their
negative attitudes and behaviors toward their job. As indicated
earlier, when an employee experiences work stress in a job yet perceives
the cost of quitting as too high, he or she may choose either
to be passive about the job and decrease effort so as to meet the
minimum level standard (Farrell, 1983). This is particularly salient
for hindrance stressorswhenemployees receive negative task feedback
from supervisors. Because hindrance stressors are appraised
as having the potential to harm personal growth they trigger negative
emotions and behaviors on the job (such as withdrawing from
the situation, decreasing effort). As a result, if employees suffering
from such stressors receive negative feedback they may decide to
invest little energy in accomplishing routine tasks rather than coming
up with new ways of doing things. In support for this, scholars
suggest that role ambiguity not only directs individuals’ attention
toward completing routine tasks but also away from problem solving
approaches that may reduce creative actions (Leung et al., 2001;
Talbot et al., 1992). Thus, we propose the following hypothesis
