Solution

The behaviors that are considered to be abusive supervision are:

  1. Public humiliation
  2. Ignoring subordinates
  3. Shouting and insults

While punishment for poor job performance can be a part of normal managerial duties, it can cross into abusive supervision if it is done in a demeaning or overly harsh manner. However, without further context, it's not necessarily considered abusive supervision on its own.
