Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the mediating role of organizational silence and coping strategies in relation to the early maladaptive schemas on the organizational performance of female managers of Tehran Municipality. The research design was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population included all female managers of Tehran Municipality who were in office in 2018, and the sample size included 200 women who were selected via multi-stage cluster sampling. Young’s Early Maladaptive Schema Questionnaire – Short Form (SQ-SF), Hersey and Goldsmith’s (2003) Organizational Performance Questionnaire, Van Dyne et al.’s (2003) Organizational Silence Questionnaire, and Young’s Avoidance and Overcompensation Inventory were completed by them. Data were then analyzed using correlation tests and structural equation modelling with SPSS 22 and LISREL 8.85 softwares. Bootstrap method was used to test indirect relationships. Evaluation of the hypothetical model of the research using fitness indicators showed that the hypothetical model fits the measurement model (CFI = 90, IFI = 90, RMSEA = 0.055). The results showed that the early maladaptive schemas indirectly affect organizational performance through organizational silence. The results also showed that overcompensation and avoidance are directly related to the maladaptive schemas. Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that organizational silence has a mediating role in the relationship between early maladaptive schemas and organizational performance. Paying attention to this mechanism of impact can be effective in formulating efficient preventive and therapeutic interventions to strengthen organizational performance.
