Abstract: Abstract By applying leadership behavior theory, social exchange theory, regulatory focus theory, and based on 366 valid questionnaire data, this paper explores the impact of temporal leadership on employee constructive deviant behavior under the knowledge economy and introduces the prevention focus, the promotion focus, and self-efficacy as intermediary variables, building a multiple chain mediation model, to explore the mediating effect in the relationship between temporal leadership and knowledge workers’ constructive deviant behaviors. The result shows that temporal leadership positively affects innovative, challenging and interpersonal constructive deviant behaviors. The prevention focus and self-efficacy play a mediating role in the relationship between temporal leadership and three types of constructive deviant behaviors. The moderating effect of promotion focus has a significant mediating effect on the relationship between temporal leadership and innovation and interpersonal constructive deviant behavior.
