Abstract: Perceived supervisor support (PSS) is defined as employees’ general views concerning the degree to which supervisors value their contributions and care about their well-being. Studies have indicated that PSS is related to a host of outcome variables, including work-related behaviors and attitudes as well as psychological stress and strains. Factors such as individual characteristics and job characteristics are significantly predictive of PPS. This paper summarized the theories and studies on PSS in the domain of OB and HRM, and pointed out some prospects for the future research such as the forming and intervening mechanism of PSS

Key words: perceived supervisor support, perceived organizational support, social exchange, antecedents and consequences
