Abstract: This paper regarded “circle” which has a Chinese characteristics element as a moderator variable, and explored its role in the relationship between abusive supervision and silence behavior. By collecting and analyzing the questionnaires which are filled by the leaders and their employees from small and medium sized enterprises of Hunan Province, we have explored that the influence of abusive supervision on silence behavior is completely different from the insiders and outsiders, that is, abusive supervision does not necessarily lead to silence behavior.
