Abstract: This study examines the moderating role of a leader-member exchange in the relationship between psychological contract breach (PCB) and employee outcomes in China. Results of this study show that (1) a psychological contract breach influences an employee’s turnover intention, organizational identification, and organizational citizenship behaviors; and (2) leader-member exchange can be a mediating variable to affect the relationship between psychological contract breach and organizational identification, organizational citizenship behavior, but cannot affect the relationship between psychological contract breach and turnover intentions in Chinese firms.
