Abstract
ABSTRACT This two-study investigation utilized two popular engagement measures, the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) and the Shirom-Melamed Vigor Measure (SMVM), to explore how facets of state-affective experience related to discrete behavioral outcomes by distinguishing proactive from contextual and in-role behavior. Two independent samples of working adults were used to test various structural models across Study 1 and Study 2, with Study 2 examining behaviors at different time lags (i.e., one-week and one-month). The findings indicated that aspects of engagement signifying a cognitive immersion in work may have unique associations with proactive behaviors such as taking charge. We concluded that these findings provide a deeper understanding of how facets of engagement relate to distinct performance outcomes, as well as how these relationships hold across time.
期刊介绍:
Human Performance publishes research investigating the nature and role of performance in the workplace and in organizational settings and offers a rich variety of information going beyond the study of traditional job behavior. Dedicated to presenting original research, theory, and measurement methods, the journal investigates individual, team, and firm level performance factors that influence work and organizational effectiveness. Human Performance is a respected forum for behavioral scientists interested in variables that motivate and promote high-level human performance, particularly in organizational and occupational settings. The journal seeks to identify and stimulate relevant research, communication, and theory concerning human capabilities and effectiveness. It serves as a valuable intellectual link between such disciplines as industrial-organizational psychology, individual differences, work physiology, organizational behavior, human resource management, and human factors.
