A positive role model may stimulate career oriented behavior.
2007
This study examined the effects of social comparison among students in their final year of study. Participants were presented with a fictitious interview with a new graduate who was either successful or unsuccessful in the job market. Exposure to the successful target led to a higher degree of inspiration, identification, and proactive career behavior than did exposure to the unsuccessful target. The higher participants were in social comparison orientation (dispositional tendency to compare oneself with others), the more they identified with the targets and the more proactive career behavior they showed. This suggests that, overall, comparing oneself with others may inspire individuals to …
The role of the happiness philosophy and core self-evaluations in defining job satisfaction as seen by the self and the significant other
2015
Bieżący artykuł bada źródła satysfakcji z pracy. Wieloźródłowe badanie zostało przeprowadzone w dwóch formach: jako kwestionariusz online ( n =642) i jako kwestionariusz papierowy ( n =635). Żeby ujednoznacznić pomiar zmiennej zależnej (zadowolenie z pracy), wykorzystano dwa źródła jej pomiaru: samoocena badanej osoby oraz ocena przez ważną inną osobę. Wyniki pokazują, iż ocena przez bliską osobę może być wartościowym źródłem informacji o samoocenie badanej osoby. Dodat - kowo w ramach hierarchicznej analizy regresji wykazano, iż obie formy filozofii szczęścia: eudaimo - nizm i hedonizm pozwalają na przewidywanie satysfakcji z pracy ponad przewidywanie oparte o pod - stawowe samowartościowa…
Zaspokojenie podstawowych potrzeb psychologicznych jako mediator między podstawowym samowartościowaniem a zadowoleniem zawodowym
2018
The article presents the verifi cation of a mediation between core self-evaluations (Judge, Locke, Durham, 1997) and work satisfaction, by the means of satisfaction of basic psychological needs at work (Deci et al., 2001). On a two multi-source cross-sectional samples (n1=977, n2=573), using path analysis, it was shown that both the structure of psychological needs at work is of three-factor character and that the postulated mediation relation can be confirmed. The results can be interpreted as a suggestion to look at the role of mediators between the dispositional variables such as core self-evaluations and job satisfaction.
Wage level or internal dispositions- what is more important in determining the satisfaction of employees on different posititions?
2016
The paper examines the mutual impact of both declared wages level and personal dispositions – core self-evaluations (Judge et al. 2003) on the perceived job and life satisfaction. Although the current consensus is that money does not guarantee happiness, a recent study by Kahneman and Deaton (2010) suggest there may be a positive money-life satisfaction relation, which is capped at a given level of income. The current study was conducted in 2015-2016 on a large sample (N=746) of Polish workers from different companies and organizational positions. The results, indicating that internal dispositions matter to a far greater extent than wages, are discussed in light of both selection and compen…
The work-family interface and its correlates : integrating variable and person oriented approaches
2017
The aim of this research was to examine key correlates of the interaction between work and family in one Nordic country, Finland, using a person- oriented and variable-oriented approach. The correlates that were chosen and examined over the course of three studies were job control and work-family boundary management styles, turnover intention, core self-evaluations, and vigor at work. Study I was part of a 2-year longitudinal study which was conducted in two Finnish universities (n = 700); Study II consisted of two samples, one of university employees (University 1, n = 666; University 2, n = 644), and the other of nurses (n = 301) from one healthcare district in Finland; and Study III used…
Is the path to woman’s work satisfaction different than that of a man? Core self-evaluations and dominat
2015
The present paper analyses and validates a path model of the relation between male and female work satisfaction (dependent variable) and various psychological and economic variables (like wages, work certainty, work stress, core self-valuations and personal happies approach: hedonia or eudaemonia). The data analyzed comes from two author's projects, evaluating the sources of worker happiness: N = 1021 (Walczak, 2014) and N = 1105 (2015). The results indicate an partial mediation relation of gender on the perceived job satisfaction.
