Data was collected on 144 retired emploees above 55 years old, and 256 employees ranged from 55 to 70 years old. Results first showed that career and organizational commitment had main effect on subjective and objective career success. Second, it indicated that career and organizational commitment mediated the relationship between proactive personality and career success. Third, the results of hierarchical regression and structural equation modeling showed that self-efficacy moderated and mediated the relationship between subjective career success and future time perspective. Lastly, the results of structural eqauation modeling indicated mediating effect of futre time perspective on relationship between subjective career success and active aging.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of career planning on subjective career success through a mediating variable of positive psychological capital. Further, moderating effects of future time perspective on the relationship between career planning and positive psychological capital and coaching leadership on the relationship between positive psychological capital and subjective career success were examined. Survey was conducted to 316 employees who have been working for more than 3 months at various korean companies. After elimination of inadequate data, 291 data were obtained for further analysis. The results of structural equation analyses showed that career planing had a direct effect on subjective career success and positive psychological capital partially mediated the relationship between career planning and subjective career success. The results of hierarchial regression analyses showed that future time perspective moderated the relationship between career planning and positive psychological capital. Contrary to the hypothesis, however, the relationship between career planning and positive psychological capital was stronger for the low level group of future time perspective. Coaching leadership moderated the relationship between positive psychological capital and subjective career success. Finally, implications and limitations of this study and the directions for future research were discussed on the basis of the results.

PurposeDrawing on social exchange theory and socio-emotional selectivity theory, this paper examines the role of occupational future time perspective (OFTP) in the relationship between age-inclusive HR practices (AIHRP) and the thriving of older workers.Design/methodology/approachA two-wave cross-sectional design was adopted with bootstrapped parallel multiple mediation analyses. In addition, polynomial regression with response surface analysis was used to examine the extent to which combinations of focus on opportunities and remaining time relate to thriving at work. Data were collected from 310 older workers working in 13 companies located in Portugal.FindingsAIHRP have direct effects on OFTP dimensions (i.e. focus on opportunities and remaining time), and indirect effects on the two thriving dimensions (i.e. learning and vitality) via focus on opportunities. The positive relationship between AIHRP and learning was mediated by remaining time, while no significant mediating effect on vitality through remaining time was found. Additionally, surface analysis showed that overall thriving and learning increase more sharply when focus on opportunities is higher than remaining time, rather than vice versa.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the literature by showing the importance of personal resources like OFTP in the relationship between AIHRP and the thriving of older workers. It also provides further support for the distinctiveness of the two OFTP dimensions as remaining time was not linked to vitality, whereas focus on opportunities was linked to both thriving dimensions.

ABSTRACTLong-term unemployment of older people can have severe consequences for individuals, communities and ultimately economies, and is therefore a serious concern in countries with an ageing population. However, the interplay of chronological age and other individual difference characteristics in predicting older job seekers' job search is so far not well understood. This study investigated relationships among age, proactive personality, occupational future time perspective (FTP) and job search intensity of 182 job seekers between 43 and 77 years in Australia. Results were mostly consistent with expectations based on a combination of socio-emotional selectivity theory and the notion of compensatory psychological resources. Proactive personality was positively related to job search intensity and age was negatively related to job search intensity. Age moderated the relationship between proactive personality and job search intensity, such that the relationship was stronger at higher compared to lower ages. One dimension of occupational FTP (perceived remaining time left in the occupational context) mediated this moderating effect, but not the overall relationship between age and job search intensity. Implications for future research, including the interplay of occupational FTP and proactive personality, and some tentative practical implications are discussed.

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the mediating role of subjective career success (SCS) in the relationship between proactive personality, social support (SS), and pre-retirement anxiety. Using a two-wave longitudinal design, 624 pre-retirees were sampled (M = 56.49 years; SD = 4.56); of these, 237 (37.98%) were males and 387 (62.02%) were females. Measurement model and mediation test were performed using the SmartPLS and IBM SPSS Amos software. The result indicated that proactive personality, SS, and SCS showed negative relationships with the dimensions of pre-retirement anxiety (financial preparedness, social obligation, and social alienation). Subjective career success mediated the relationship between proactive personality and pre-retirement anxiety.

To determine the importance of career management behavior (CMB) for organizational outcomes, this study investigated the impact of CMB and organizational support for career development (OSCD) on subjective career success (SCS) and eventually on organizational commitment. Based on survey data from 355 employees of large Korean manufacturing firms, we found that both CMB and OSCD were positively associated with SCS. The results show that SCS positively affects organizational commitment and positively mediates both the relationship between CMB and organizational commitment and the relationship between OSCD and organizational commitment. Our findings imply that employee career success, which is affected by individual and organizational efforts, contributes to the outcomes of the organization in which employees are embedded.

The intention of employees to leave the organization, or known as turnover intention, is something that must be taken seriously by an organization as it may affect the sustainability of the organization. This study aimed to determine the effect of resilience as a mediator in the relationship between future time perspective (FTP) and turnover intention. Data were taken using convenience sampling from various state-owned enterprises (Badan Usaha Milik Negara, BUMN) in Depok and Jakarta area (N = 310). The study used a self-rating method using 3 measurements, namely Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, Brief Resilience Scale, and Turnover Intention. Data were analyzed using mediation technique by Hayes’ PROCESS macro on SPSS program. The results showed that FTP negatively and significantly affected turnover intention and that resilience fully mediated the relationship. As a practical implication, this study provides information for organizations to employ programs to increase employees’ future time perspective and resilience.

Abstract. This study addresses prior mixed findings on the relationship between future time perspective (FTP) and well-being as well as examines the associations between three aspects of FTP and life satisfaction in the health and friendship domains. 159 Germans, 97 US Americans, and 240 Hong Kong Chinese, aged 19–86 years, completed a survey on future self-views (valence) and life satisfaction. They also reported the extent to which they perceived future time as expanded vs. limited (time extension) and meaningful (openness). Findings revealed that individuals with more positive future self-views had higher satisfaction. However, those who perceived their future as more meaningful or perceived more time in their future reported higher satisfaction even when future self-views were less positive.
