Abstract

Constructive deviation, as a new type of behavior, has attracted wide attention from scholars. Previous studies have explored the influence and mechanisms through which constructive deviation operates as a dependent, intermediate, and moderating variable. This article reviews the research on the concept of constructive deviation and its related theories. It also discusses the limitations of constructive deviation and future research directions.
