Abstract

Based on the social cognitive model and on the psychology of working theory, this research aims to study the job and life satisfaction of apprentices, considering proactive personality, person-supervisor and person-group fit, occupational self-efficacy, and decent work as antecedents. The participants were 530 Swiss apprentices enrolled in a three-year VET program with the Federal VET Diploma. The results show that proactivity is directly linked with person-supervisor and person-group fit, occupational self-efficacy, and job and life satisfaction. Decent work is related positively with job satisfaction. Person-supervisor and person-group fit seem to directly influence occupational self-efficacy. Decent work, in turn, seems to mediate the relationship between person-supervisor and person-group fit and job satisfaction. In conclusion, this study suggests that encouraging apprentices’ proactivity, person-supervisor and person-group fit at work could be crucial to improving their perceptions of decent work and increasing their job and life satisfaction.

学徒的工作和生活满意度:个性、社会关系和体面工作的影响
本研究以社会认知模型和工作心理学理论为基础,以学徒的工作和生活满意度为研究对象,将积极主动的个性、个人与主管和个人与团体的契合度、职业自我效能感和体面工作作为前因。研究对象是 530 名瑞士学徒,他们参加了为期三年的职业教育与培训项目,并获得了联邦职业教育与培训文凭。研究结果表明,积极主动与个人-主管和个人-团体契合度、职业自我效能感以及工作和生活满意度直接相关。体面工作与工作满意度呈正相关。人-主管和人-组契合度似乎直接影响职业自我效能感。而体面的工作似乎又是人-主管和人-组契合度与工作满意度之间关系的中介。总之,本研究表明,鼓励学徒在工作中积极主动、人-主管和人-组契合,对于改善他们对体面工作的看法、提高他们的工作和生活满意度至关重要。

期刊介绍: The main focus of this journal is to provide a platform for original empirical investigations in the field of professional, vocational and technical education, comparing the effectiveness, efficiency and equity of different vocational education systems at the school, company and systemic level. The journal fills a gap in the existing literature focusing on empirically-oriented academic research and stimulating the interest in strengthening the vocational part of the educational system, both at the basic and higher education level.
