摘要：

This study has been designed to investigate, from a multilevel perspective, the relations among positivity and job performance. Analyses were conducted on a sample of 232 participants from three Italian organizations with the Group Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (Kenny & Garcia, 2012). Results corroborate previous findings attesting to the beneficial effects of positivity on organizational behaviours and in particular attest to the crucial role of others' positivity in neutralizing an individual's low positivity. People low in positivity performed better when other group members' positivity was high. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
