隨著時代快速變遷，科技日新月異除了為學習新知帶來便利外，也會因為失言、虛榮心或虛榮心作祟而引起輿論等負向效應，然而這些效應會形成負向八卦網絡，進而使當事人在職場環境出現犬儒主義的狀態，此將不良於組織整體發展，本研究將以負向八卦為探討主軸，瞭解其對犬儒主義的影響，同時也聚焦負向妒羨情緒是否為引起負向八卦的主因。
再者探討負向妒羨與負向八卦的關係，並確認人格特質的外向性及嚴謹性對前述關係是否具調節效果，同時檢視負向八卦是否中介負向妒羨與犬儒主義的關係，並以全職工作者為施測對象，透過兩階段樣本蒐集，回收有效問卷為97份，並以IBM SPSS 22和Mplus 6進行資料分析，驗證本研究假設。研究結果發現：一、負向妒羨與負向八卦呈現正向關係。二、負向八卦與犬儒主義呈現正向關係。三、負向八卦會中介負向妒羨與犬儒主義的關係。四、嚴謹性愈高愈能降低負向妒羨與負向八卦之間的關係。最後提出管理實務與未來研究之建議，提供後續企業和學者參考。

As times change rapidly, advancements in technology not only facilitate learning but also can lead to negative effects such as public criticism due to slip-ups or vanity. These negative consequences can foster a culture of gossip, resulting in a cynical outlook in workplace environments, which can detrimentally affect overall organizational development. This study focuses on exploring the phenomenon of negative gossip, aiming to understand its impact on cynicism. Additionally, it examines whether negative envy is a primary driver of negative gossip.
The research aims to investigate the relationship between negative envy and negative gossip, and to confirm whether personality traits such as extraversion and conscientiousness moderate this relationship. Furthermore, it explores whether negative gossip mediates the relationship between negative envy and cynicism. The study targets full-time employees, collecting 97 valid responses through a two-stage sampling process. Data analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS 22 and Mplus 6 to validate the hypotheses.
The results of this study are as follows: (1) a positive relationship between negative envy and negative gossip; (2) a positive relationship between negative gossip and cynicism; (3) negative gossip mediating the relationship between negative envy and cynicism; and (4) higher conscientiousness potentially reducing the relationship between negative envy and negative gossip. Finally, practical management recommendations and suggestions for future research are provided for the benefit of both businesses and scholars.
