Abstract: In order to give full play to positive role of group dynamics in the working group of coal mining enterprises and effectively prevent occurrence of UBI of miners, on the basis of reviewing and analyzing literature, hypothetical model of relationship between miners' group dynamics, PS, interpersonal relationship and UBI was established. Taking 296 front-line team members of coal mining enterprises as research object, mediating effect of PS and moderating effect of interpersonal relationship were tested based on SEM and hierarchical regression respectively. The results show that there is a significantly positive correlation between group cohesion, group appeal, group driving and PS. There is a significantly negative correlation between group pressure, group dissipative force and PS. PS is significantly negatively correlated with miners' UBI. PS plays a mediating role between group cohesion, group pressure, group dissipation force and miners' UBI. Interpersonal relationship plays a moderating role in group cohesion, group driving, group pressure and PS.

Key words: group dynamics, unsafe behavior intention(UBI), psychological safety(PS), interpersonal relationship, structure equation modeling (SEM)
