本研究以探究部屬知覺主管幽默失敗對其創造力的影響，LMX在主管幽默失敗與部屬創造力之間的中介效果，以及實性和諧及虛性和諧在主管幽默失敗與部屬創造力之間的調節效果，最後探討實性和諧及虛性和諧是否影響LMX中介效果的變化。研究運用網路問卷調查之方法，以兩時點的資料蒐集方式針對臺灣在職工作者進行資料蒐集，原回收409份問卷，刪除無效作答問卷，有效問卷共371份，有效回收率為90.7%。研究結果發現：（1）主管幽默失敗與LMX呈負向關係；（2）LMX與部屬創造力呈正向關係；（3）LMX中介主管幽默失敗與部屬創造力之負向關係；（4）人際和諧的調節效果與調節式中介效果則未獲得顯著。

This study explores the impact of employees’ perceptions of leaders’ humor failures on their creativity and examines the mediating effect of Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) between leaders’ humor failures and employees’ creativity. Additionally, it investigates the moderating effect of interpersonal harmony on the relationship between leaders’ humor failure and employees’ creativity, as well as on the mediating effect of LMX. The research employs an online survey method, collecting data from employed workers at two-time points. A total of 409 questionnaires were initially retrieved, with 371 valid responses after excluding invalid ones, resulting in a valid response rate of 90.7%. The finding reveals that: (1) Leader-failed humor have a negative relationship with LMX; (2) LMX is positively related to employees’ creativity; (3) LMX mediates the negative relationship between leader-failed humor and employees’ creativity；(4) The moderating effect and moderated mediation effect of Interpersonal Harmony were not found to be significant.
