contents Voice in the Void: From Voice to Acquiescent Silence over Time as Learned Helplessness in Organizations Clement F. A. Andrieu Isabelle Milhabet Ambre Denis-Noël Dirk D. Steiner Psicología Acquiescent silence Control perceptions Learned helplessness Voice instrumentality Organizational silence Organizational members may be reluctant to express opinions or concerns because they feel that speaking out is futile. This phenomenon, named “acquiescent silence,” is examined in this paper through the lens of learned helplessness theory. We tested the learning effect generated by repeated failures to influence situations with voice over time. This learning could foster a state of acquiescent silence that mirrors learned helplessness. Both experimental studies (N = 654) showed that individuals exposed to repetitive instances of low voice instrumentality were less likely to use new voice opportunities and felt increasingly helpless. These findings shed light on the impact of perceived voice ineffectiveness on employee future voice behaviors and propose a framework clarifying the development of acquiescent silence over time. 2024 artículo científico 1576-5962 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=231379792004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231379792004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231379792004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231379792004/231379792004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231379792004/movil 10.5093/jwop2024a9 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2313 Revista de Psicología del Trabajo y de las Organizaciones application/pdf Colegio Oficial de la Psicología de Madrid Revista de Psicología del Trabajo y de las Organizaciones (España) Num.2 Vol.40
