This study investigated the moderating effects of psychological empowerment on the relationships between person-job (P-J) fit and turnover intention. P-J fit was measured using demands-abilities (D-A) fit on two job dimensions: social interaction and leadership. Psychological empowerment was assessed using four sub-types: meaning, competence, self-determination, and impact. First, we investigated whether mismatch between job demands and personal abilities would be related to increased turnover intention. We also examined whether psychological empowerment would mitigate these relationships. Data were collected from 415 full-time workers. The results from polynomial regressions showed that the relationships of D-A fit with turnover intention were different depending on the direction and the dimensions of misfit. The interaction between D-A fit and psychological empowerment was found as expected in seven out of eight cases in total, except for the interaction between D-A fit in social interaction and competence. These results imply that psychological empowerment, as a job resource, could ameliorate the negative impacts of P-J misfit on turnover intention.

In last few decades, employees’ job related attitudes and behaviors have remained topics of considerable interest in the fields of organizational behavior and human resource management. This study aims to explore the impact of person-organization-fit and person-job-fit on employee turnover intention while considering psychological climate as a mediating variable. Sample for this research is consisted of 260 employees from top five commercial banks of large cities of Pakistan. SPSS 17 is used for analyzing the data. Correlation and regression analysis is used to test the direct and mediating relationship between key variables. Results indicate that both person-organization-fit and person-job-fit have negative relationship with turnover intention. Psychological climate partially mediates the relationship between person-organization-fit and turnover intention while fully mediates the relationship between person-job-fit and turnover intention.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to examine work-family conflict and psychological empowerment as correlates and predictors of turnover intentions among married female doctors. It further aimed to identify significant differences in study variables among the sample in terms of the type of family system i.e., nuclear and joint. Materials and Methods: This correlational study analyzed a sample of 105 married female doctors aged 23-45 years (Mage=31.69; SD=5.20) working in different hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan. Participants completed Work-Family Conflict Scale, Psychological Empowerment Instrument and Turnover Intention Scale. Results and Discussion: Dimensions of work-family conflict had a significant positive relationship with turnover intentions. Furthermore, psychological empowerment had a significant negative relation with turnover intentions. Behavior-based family interference with work and psychological empowerment emerged as significant predictors of turnover intentions among the sample. No significant differences were found in study variables in terms of nuclear and joint family system. Conclusion: Implications of findings are discussed with reference to the medical profession.
