The Interactional Role of Perceived Organizational Justice Dimensions on Retaliatory Behaviors

This study was administered with the aim of studying the interactional role of perceived organizational justice dimensions on retaliatory behaviors. The research statistical population was 800 male employees of some industrial companies in Isfahan city، from among them 275 were selected by convenience sampling. Research instruments consisted of distributive justice، procedural justice and interactional justice questionnaires (Golparvar & Nadi، 2010) and organizational retaliatory behaviors questionnaire (Skarlicki & Folger، 1997). Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and moderated hierarchical regression analysis. The results revealed that interactional and procedural justice moderate the relationship between distributive justice with verbal retaliatory behaviors and retaliatory from the colleagues and from the time; however، they do not moderate the relationship between distributive justice and retaliation from the facilities. The results also showed that in low procedural and interactional justice، there is stronger relationship between distributive justice with verbal retaliatory behaviors and retaliatory of the colleagues and time. That is، with increase of perceived distributive justice، tendency to verbal retaliatory behaviors and retaliatory of the colleagues and time has decreased. Evidences from current research revealed that the levels of procedural and interactional justice are important for relating distributive justice with verbal retaliatory behaviors and retaliatory of the colleagues and time.
