The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among leader empowering behavior, job crafting and work engagement. Specially, this study investigated not only the influence of leader empowering behavior on job crafting and work engagement that is mediated by job crafting but also the moderating effects of core-self evaluation and person-job fit on the relationships between leader empowering behavior and job crafting and between job crafting and work engagement. Data were collected among 312 korean employees who were working in various organization via online survey. Online survey was conducted by 312 korean employees who were working in various organizations. First, correlation analyses were conducted and the results showed that there were positive relationship among main variables such as leader empowering behavior, job crafting, work engagement and etc.. Second, the results of structural equitation modeling analyses offered strong support for the proposed model(partial mediation model). Employees who were empowered by leader were most likely to craft their job, relationship and cognitive boundary and boost work engagement; job crafting, in turn, was predictive of work engagement. Third the results of hierarchial regression analyses showed that core-self evaluation did not moderate the relationship between leader empowering behavior and job crafting. However, there was a moderation effect of person-job fit on the relationship between job crating and work engagement. Employees who did job crafting had a greater impact on work engagement under the low person-job fit situation than the high fit situation. The implications and limitations of this study and the directions for future research were discussed on the basis of the results.

Level Effect

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine cross-level effects of team-level servant leadership on job boredom and the mediating role of job crafting. Cross-level moderating effects of team-level servant leadership were also investigated. Design/methodology/approach This longitudinal study employed a multilevel design in a sample of 237 employees, clustered into 47 teams. Servant leadership was aggregated to the team-level to examine the effects of shared perceptions of leadership at T1 on individual-level outcome, namely job boredom, at T2. In addition, mediation analysis was used to test whether team-level servant leadership at T1 can protect followers from job boredom at T2 by fostering job crafting at T2. Cross-level moderating effects of team-level servant leadership at T1 on the relation between job crafting at T2 and job boredom at T2 were also modeled. Findings Job crafting at T2 mediated the cross-level effect of team-level servant leadership at T1 on job boredom at T2. Research limitations/implications The findings suggest that team-level servant leadership predicts less job boredom by boosting job crafting. Originality/value This study is the first to assess the effects of servant leadership on job boredom and the mediating role of job crafting. This paper examines job boredom in a multilevel design, thus extending knowledge on its contextual components.

The present study attempted to investigate the mediating effect of Cognitive Test-anxiety (CTA) between the relation of Core Self-evaluation (CSE) and academic performance. Sample consisted of 599 class 12 students from different schools in Kolkata belonging to both English and Bengali medium schools and from both science and humanities streams. Subjects were selected according to the inclusion criteria to maintain homogeneity of sample. To carry out mediation analysis PROCESS macro for SPSS by Preacher & Hayes, 2004 was used. Data was analyzed using SPSS 22 version. Results showed CSE positively predicted academic performance which was significantly mediated by CTA.

New Hires

For new hires, receiving support from their supervisor is critical for familiarizing themselves with their job and engaging it as soon as possible. The aim of this paper is to explore the influencing mechanism of person-supervisor fit(PSF) on the work engagement(WE) of new hires as well as the mediating role of person-organization fit(POF) and person-job fit(PJF). Five hundred new hires were selected through cluster sampling, and asked to fill out questionnaires measuring PSF, POF, PJF, and WE. In total, 486 questionnaires were valid. The study found that PSF positively influenced new hires’ WE. This positive impact was fully realized through the two mediation paths of POF and PJF. Therefore, a two-mediation model was established. PSF was highly important to the WE of new hires, but this effect was fully realized through the indirect paths of POF and PJF.
