This paper aims to comprehensively reveal the impact path of individual status gain events on team members' cognition and behaviors, and under what conditions individual status gain events will promote team members' positive behaviors, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the proposals of management strategies. With a data sample comprising 293 employees from 28 teams, data analysis by using structural equation model was performed to ascertain the effect of individual status gain events on peer behaviors.The results show that individual status gain events have a positive impact on team members' interpersonal help behaviors and interpersonal avoidance behaviors through the intermediary effect of team members' resource benefit/threat perception, and the team cooperation atmosphere negatively regulates the relationship between individual status gain events and resource threat perception, it also has a significant mediating effect on the relationship between individual status gain events and team members' interpersonal help behaviors. The results not only further expand the research on the impact of individual status gain events on employee behaviors, but also reveal the impact mechanism and boundary conditions of individual status gain events on employee behaviors.
