PurposeHow to foster voice behavior has always been a hot topic in organizational research; however, the mechanism through which performing decent work affects employee voice behavior remains to be fully understood. To address this deficiency, the current study investigates how basic need satisfaction may relate to perceived decent work and voice behavior and the moderating role of gender. Our research draws upon self-determination theory and social information processing theory.Design/methodology/approachThe theoretical model was tested using two-wave investigation data collected from a sample of 349 employees and 85 supervisors in Southwest China.FindingsDecent work perception was positively related to voice behavior, and this relationship was partially mediated by basic need satisfaction. In addition, the relationship between decent work perception and basic need satisfaction as well as the indirect effect of decent work perception on voice behavior via basic need satisfaction was stronger for men than for women.Originality/valueThis study highlights the pivotal roles of basic need satisfaction and gender in the consequences of decent work perception in the workplace. The authors provide new insights into the relationship between decent work perception and voice behavior and inspire scholars to elucidate other explanatory mechanisms in this link.

The Relationship

The main objective of the study is to empirically explain the relationship between the construct mindfulness (MDF) and the job performance (JP) of employees. This study also examines the mediating effect of basic need satisfaction at work (BNS-W), between the MDF and JP of employees. The sample comprises responses from 327 employees working in IT companies based in India. Correlation and hierarchical regression analysis were employed to analyze the proposed measurement model. The results show a significant relationship among the study variables. BNS which is one of the concepts of self-determination theory (SDT), found partially mediated the relationship between MDF and JP of the employees. Examining the relationship between MDF and basic psychological need satisfaction on the JP has significant implications for organizations. The proposed study framework can be utilized by the researchers and human resource practitioner to reframe the organizational practices. First, the general understanding of the relationship between MDF and JP is limited in literature. Second, the study extends the previous research by investigating the mediating effect of BNS, a concept within SDT, on the relationship between MDF and JP.

The Relationship

Self Determination Theory proposes that psychological needs satisfaction is associated with high positive affect and low negative affect. The present study consolidated effect sizes from previous research on the relationship of satisfaction of autonomy, competence and relatedness needs with positive affect and negative affect, and identified moderators of the relationships. The basic need satisfaction and positive affect meta-analyses included 16 samples for autonomy, 16 for competence, and 16 for relatedness, with 7335, 6832, and 6710 participants, respectively. Across studies, higher positive affect was significantly associated with greater autonomy satisfaction (r=.39), competence satisfaction (r=.45), and relatedness satisfaction (r=.39). The basic need satisfaction and negative affect meta-analyses included 11 samples for autonomy, 13 for competence, and 11 for relatedness, with 5114 participants, 5481 participants, and 5114 participants, respectively. Across studies, lower negative affect was significantly associated with greater autonomy satisfaction (r=-.30), competence satisfaction (r=-.33), and relatedness satisfaction (r=-.30). Moderator analyses found that gender composition, sample type, and basic need satisfaction measure were related to the strength of associations.

The Relationship

The study examined the association between basic need satisfaction in the couple relationship (basic need satisfaction in the relationship [BNSR]) and personal growth (PG), using a sample of 57 lesbian mothers individually matched with 57 heterosexual mothers. BNSR was found to correlate positively with growth only among lesbian mothers, while no significant association was found among heterosexual mothers. The findings are explained in terms of the particular characteristics of lesbian couples, such as high emotional support, equal division of labor, and absence of traditional gender roles. The potential contribution of these features to PG in the context of lesbian motherhood, which is planned, intentional, and often achieved after contending with minority stress and challenging life circumstances, is discussed.
