Abstract

Drawing support from the conservation of resources theory, cognitive appraisal theory and self-determination theory, we investigate the link between remote abusive supervision (RAS) and life satisfaction (LS) through the mediating roles of obsessive work passion (OWP) and work-to-life conflict (WLC). We also examine the moderating role of information and communication technology (ICT) usage through the underpinnings of self-determination theory. Hypotheses were tested using SEM on 236 adults working from home for an Indian ITES company. RAS is found to be negatively related to LS, and OWP and WLC positively mediate the relationship; additionally, ICT usage moderates between OWP, WLC and LS.
