Study on the influence of McGregor's theory x and theory y on psychological contract violations


Author(s): Sanya Ahuja

Abstract: McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y have long been recognized as influential frameworks in understanding managerial attitudes and behaviours toward employees. This paper explores how these contrasting perspectives impact the development of psychological contract violations within organizations. Drawing upon empirical research and theoretical insights, it examines the mechanisms through which Theory X and Theory Y orientations shape employee-employer relationships, influencing perceptions of fairness, trust, and mutual obligations. By elucidating the linkages between managerial approaches and psychological contract breaches, this paper provides valuable insights for organizational leaders seeking to foster positive workplace dynamics and mitigate the risk of detrimental outcomes associated with contract violations.
