Literature Review: Emotional Exhaustion

OB Literature review (20 marks) The aim of this assessment is to develop your research skills in independently investigating and reviewing a specific OB research area. You are required to pick one topic from the list of topics provided (see Appendix 1) and conduct a thorough review of the research literature related to the topic. The topics provided are important OB concepts that have shaped the theory and practice in the management literature. Pick a topic that you are most interested in and that you think relate closely to your future career. You need to identify and review the key academic journal articles related to the topic (see Appendix 2 for a list of top tier management journals. Please note that this list is not exhaustive and you are allowed to use articles from top journals not on the list). In the literature review, you first need to provide a clear conceptualization (e.g., how it is defined? Why is this concept important? How is it conceptually different from similar topics?) Then you need to summarize the research findings regarding the antecedents and consequences of the focal concept (i.e., what factors can influence/strengthen/weaken your focal concept, and what important outcomes does your focal concept lead to?) Finally, you need to critique the literature and identify important directions for future research on this topic (e.g., are there theoretical and empirical limitations in the papers you have reviewed? What other important research questions can you ask regarding this topic?) Please see Appendix 3 and 4 for the specific criteria with which your literature review will be evaluated. An essay format is required. The literature review should be no more than 1500 words excluding references. You should include at least 10 academic references using APA (American Psychology Association) style. Supporting resources The university has provided learning resources for those who are not familiar with writing a literature review (I have attached these resources next to this instruction document on Moodle). Furthermore, if you are not familiar with working with academic journal articles, please refer to Monash Business School’s Q manual for step by step instructions (Q manual also can be found on Moodle). Due Date: Peer evaluation due in Week 6, final submission due in Week 10 You are encouraged to start working on the literature review as soon as you are enrolled in this unit. A complete draft of your literature review is due in week 6 in tutorials for peer evaluation. In Week 6’s tutorial you will be randomly assigned to a partner to evaluate and give feedback to each other’s literature review draft. You should have a complete draft of the literature review (a simple outline is not acceptable) to be given to the partner. You will evaluate each other’s draft using the evaluation and feedback sheet (See Appendix 3). Your evaluation will account for 15% (i.e., 3 marks) of your partner’s final mark of the literature review (and vice versa). You will get a signed peer evaluation and feedback sheet of your lit review from your partner (and your partner will get his/hers from you). The tutors will collect the peer evaluation sheet so they can record the peer evaluation mark, which will be posted on Moodle (so you can keep track of your in-semester marks). I recommend that you take a picture of the peer evaluation sheet that you receive from your partner just for the record. You are required to submit the final draft of your literature review by Week 10’s tutorial. Please see below on specific details on how to submit your document through the Turnitin link on Moodle. The tutor will evaluate the final draft using the evaluation and feedback sheet (see Appendix 4). Submission requirement Overall, it is important to ensure your assignment is professionally presented. Please ensure all of your work is double-lined spaced and free from grammatical and spelling errors. You deny yourself marks by handing in work that has not been proof read prior to submission. Your reference list should be on a new page at the end of your assignment. This list should contain only those items which you have directly cited in the body of your assignment. You need to use the APA style to format your references. There is no need for you to provide doi numbers as part of your reference list. Please submit your document without the coversheet to the corresponding Turnitin submission link on Moodle (see the section named “Assessment submission links and grades”). Please make sure you submit everything in one file. A Turnitin similarity score will be automatically calculated for your document, and you are required to revise and resubmit the document to make sure the score is lower than 15%. We won’t mark the documents with a similarity score equal to or higher than 15%, and we won’t accept late submissions (unless a special consideration application has been submitted before the due date). In week 10’s tutorial you are required to submit simply a coversheet to the tutor as an indication that you have submitted your document on Moodle and that your Turnitin similarity score is less than 15%. You are not required to submit a hardcopy (we will grade the document that you have submitted through the Turnitin link on Moodle). Appendix 1 Literature review topics Please pick ONE topic from the list below for your literature review. Locus of control Narcissism Machiavellianism Authentic self Emotional labor Deep acting Mindfulness Emotional exhaustion Regret (as an emotion) Sadness (as an emotion) Fear (as an emotion) Overconfidence bias Anchoring Confirmation bias Escalation of commitment Fundamental attribution error Halo effect Cognitive dissonance Self-efficacy Goal setting Regulatory focus Learning goal orientation Intrinsic motivation Organizational citizenship behavior Group-think Social loafing Social facilitation Ingroup favoritism Outgroup hostility Expert power Referent power Information power Social network centrality Charismatic leadership Authentic leadership Servant leadership Destructive leadership Ethical leadership Moral reasoning Moral disengagement Moral identity Guilt (as a moral emotion) Moral elevation Whistle blowing BATNA Integrative negotiation Fixed-pie perception Reactive devaluation Hubris in negotiation Agreement bias in negotiation Winner’s curse Third party mediation in conflict resolution Appendix 2 Top tier OB journals Academy of Management Journal Academy of Management Review Journal of Applied Psychology Journal of Personality and Social Psychology Journal of Management Administrative Science Quarterly Journal of Organizational behavior Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes Research in Organizational Behavior Journal of Experimental Psychology: General Journal of Experimental Social Psychology Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin Psychological Science Psychological Bulletin Psychological Review Journal of Management Studies Appendix 3 OB literature review evaluation and feedback Criteria Peer evaluation and comments Construct conceptualization and clarification (3 marks) Was the conceptualization clear? Was there comparison and differentiation with similar/relevant concepts? Existing research summary (7 marks) Did the student identify the key research papers? Did the student demonstrate a good understanding of the papers and organize them to form a theme? Did the student identify the antecedents and consequences of the focal concept? Critique of existing research (6 marks) Did the student identify and summarize the major limitations of the existing research? Did the student raise meaningful research questions based on existing research? Did the student point out any important future research directions? Presentation (4 marks) Was the paper well written? Was the format (e.g., references) correct and appropriate? Final peer evaluation grade: ______/20, which equals to ______% Peer evaluation accounts for 15% of the final literature review grade (i.e., 3 marks maximum). If you get 80% overall in the peer evaluation, it will translate into 2.4 marks (3 × 80%) when the final mark of the literature review is calculated. The final literature review mark = peer evaluation mark + tutor evaluation mark.

Final tutor evaluation grade: ______/20, which equals to ______% Tutor evaluation accounts for 85% of the final literature review grade (i.e., 17 marks maximum). If you get 80% overall in the tutor evaluation, it will translate into 13.6 marks (17 × 80%) when the final mark of the literature review is calculated. The final literature review mark = peer evaluation mark + tutor evaluation mark.
