We conducted a scenario-based study to test the effects of abusive supervision on subjects' state self-esteem. Results indicate that individuals in the abusive supervision condition reported lower levels of state self-esteem compared to individuals in a condition where the supervisor acted more positively. In addition, this effect was more pronounced for women. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
