The present study investigated the influences of superior-subordinate similarity in self-construals on the subordinates’ psychological burnouts. With two hundred and eighty employees working in service industry, the level of psychological burnouts, subordinates’ self-construals, and the superior’s self-construals perceived by subordinates were measured. Data were analyzed using the Polynomial Regression Analysis and the Response Surface Methodology. As a result, it was found that both the superiors’ and the subordinates’ levels of interdependent self accounted for the level of psychological burnout indicators (depersonalization, burnout caused by colleague workers, and psychological burnout caused by superiors) although the influence of superior-subordinate similarity in self-construals on burnouts was not as large as the hypothesis predicted. The implications on organizational management are discussed.
