第三節 研究限制與未來研究建議

本研究參考前導研究的結果,發現辯解者可同時使用多個策略,因此在實驗 設計中,除了包含單一策略,也納入兩兩策略搭配,甚至是三個策略一併使用的 可能。在前導研究的非正式訪談中,雖然業界主管表示他們曾在面談場合中看到 應徵者同時運用不同策略,卻也認為這三種策略的組合有其順序性,提出外在因 素的推託之詞是最直覺的反應,如果還有其他資訊可以提供以降低負面事件的疑 慮(合理化),可能會在開脫之後使用,至於道歉策略則被認為是收尾策略,既 已承認自己的錯誤,後續再開脫表示自己沒錯顯得反覆而多餘,因此考量策略組 合的合理性,劇本中的策略順序是固定的,在多策略的組別中,順序一律為開脫

-合理化-道歉,以開脫與道歉為例,面試官將先接收到應徵者的開脫之詞,再 看到她承認錯誤。不過,在主要研究後的非正式訪談中,受試者也表示實際狀況 不盡然如這組說詞順序,還是曾經看過應徵者先道歉後續又進行外歸因或提出合 理化說詞,雖然會讓人覺得前後矛盾,不過他們也指出在面談情境中應徵者容易 感受到壓力,在緊張的情緒下說詞反覆並不讓人意外。可知策略的順序還是可能 有先後之別,考量排序差異,再依據前導研究的非正式訪談,推測說詞順序的合

理性仍會影響說服力 (Tata, 2002a),舉例來說,相對不合理的說詞順序,如:先 道歉後開脫,是否可能削弱說服力?而使其辯解效果比先開脫後道歉更差?值得 後續研究進一步驗證。

研究結果驗證了應徵者的防禦型印象管理策略會引發面試官的認知與情感評 價,後續可以進一步應徵者個人特質如何影響其策略選取,像是勤勉審慎性高的 應徵者有較高的責任感,將與自己相關的失誤視作自己的責任,因此在受到質疑 時,可能傾向承擔責任,承諾改善;若面試官所提出的質疑超出應徵者預期,在 沒有多餘反應時間的情況下,應徵者可能以自己慣有的方式來回應,這個時候的 策略選擇或許可以用以推估應徵者的個人特質,進而成為面談決策的參考。

最後,本研究提出兩個並存的心理歷程,而面試官的個人特質可能進一步影 響路徑強度,像是具有偏向系統性思考 (systematic thinking style) 的面試官偏好 蒐集客觀資訊進行判斷,而傾向投入較多認知資源 (Forgas & George, 2000),因 此對他/她而言,認知評價的機制較情感評價來得強,換句話說,即使是相當真 誠的道歉也不見得能影響其情感評價,推測面試官個人特質對於防禦型印象管理 的有效性有關鍵性的影響,未來或許可以進一步探究其 moderated mediation 的歷 程。

另外,本研究依據 Campbell (1990) 提出情境重要性,在組織情境中討論辯 解策略的特點及影響歷程,是以員工甄選面談作為情境設定,然而情境對於二元 機制的影響相當值得探究,主要研究整理過去文獻後推論,人際互動下追求維繫 長久關係,情感評價可能扮演關鍵角色,而在面談情境中重視員工的職缺適任 性,能力評價可能是影響最終面試官評分的主要路徑,未來可以進一步探究情境 所扮演 mediated moderator 的角色。
