Abstract Previous researches on employees' innovation behavior are carried out based on the individual motivation perspective of organizational behavior, from internal motivation and external motivation. From the perspective of impression management motivation of social psychology, this paper distinguishes between positive and defensive impression management motivation and explores its different effect mechanisms on innovation behavior. The results show that:①Assertive impression management motivation has positive impact on innovation behavior, while the defensive impression management motivation has hindrance impact on innovation behavior.②Role identity plays a mediator role in the process aforementioned.③The positive/negative supervisor's feedback intensities the positive/hindrance impact of assertive/defensive impression management motivation on role identity. These results not only explore the new path of influencing employees' innovation behavior from the perspective of social psychology, but also enrich and expand the theoretical system of individual innovation behavior in China. Further more, the application of impression management motivation in the field of organization management is expanded, and the divergence of existing researches is explained.
