Abstract

Purpose: This study seeks to examine distinct effects of career and psychosocial mentoring on employee turnover intentions in a moderated mediation model. Specifically, the purpose was to examine the mediating role of attitude toward leaving in the relationship between career mentoring and turnover intentions, and the moderating/buffering effect of psychosocial mentoring on the abovementioned mediating process.Design/methodology/approach: Hypotheses have been tested deductively by using cross-sectional data from 352 bank employees. Analyses have been performed by applying partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Findings: The findings suggest that attitude toward leaving mediates the career mentoring-turnover intentions relationship, and psychosocial mentoring moderates this mediating effect.Research limitations/implications: This study integrates theory of planned behavior (TPB) and Eight Forces Framework of voluntary turnover, and extends organizational literature by unfolding how psychosocial mentoring buffers the mediating effect of attitude toward leaving on career mentoring-turnover intentions relationship. Study limitations are about cross-sectional nature of data and external validity of results.Practical Implications: This study’s contribution to practice is that organizations providing career mentoring to their employees should consider also the provision of psychosocial mentoring to avoid employee turnover intentions.Originality/value: This study adds value to organizational literature by examining a previously untested buffering effect of psychosocial mentoring on the mediating process between career mentoring and turnover intentions.

社会心理辅导通过离职态度对职业指导与员工离职意向之间关系的缓冲作用

研究目的：本研究试图在一个调节中介模型中考察职业指导和社会心理指导对员工离职意向的不同影响。具体来说，目的是研究离职态度在职业指导与离职意向之间的中介作用，以及社会心理指导对上述中介过程的调节/缓冲作用：利用 352 名银行员工的横截面数据对假设进行了演绎检验。采用偏最小二乘结构方程模型（PLS-SEM）进行分析。研究结果研究结果表明，离职态度是职业指导与离职意向关系的中介，而社会心理指导则对这种中介效应起调节作用：本研究整合了计划行为理论（TPB）和自愿离职八力框架，并通过阐述社会心理辅导如何缓冲离职态度对职业指导-离职意向关系的中介效应，扩展了组织文献。研究的局限性在于数据的横截面性质和结果的外部有效性：本研究对实践的贡献在于，为员工提供职业指导的组织应考虑同时提供心理辅导，以避免员工离职意向的产生：本研究通过考察社会心理辅导对职业指导与离职意向之间中介过程的缓冲作用，为组织文献增添了价值。

期刊介绍： The aim of Intangible Capital is to publish theoretical and empirical articles that contribute to contrast, extend and build theories that contribute to advance our understanding of phenomena related with management, and the management of intangibles, in organizations, from the perspectives of strategic management, human resource management, psychology, education, IT, supply chain management and accounting. The scientific research in management is grounded on theories developed from perspectives taken from a diversity of social sciences. Intangible Capital is open to publish articles that, from sociology, psychology, economics and industrial organization contribute to the scientific development of management and organizational science. Intangible Capital publishes scholar articles that contribute to contrast existing theories, or to build new theoretical approaches. The contributions can adopt confirmatory (quantitative) or explanatory (mainly qualitative) methodological approaches. Theoretical essays that enhance the building or extension of theoretical approaches are also welcome. Intangible Capital selects the articles to be published with a double bind, peer review system, following the practices of good scholarly journals. Intangible Capital publishes three regular issues per year following an open access policy. On-line publication allows to reduce publishing costs, and to make more agile the process of reviewing and edition. Intangible Capital defends that open access publishing fosters the advance of scientific knowledge, making it available to everyone. Intangible Capital publishes articles in English, Spanish and Catalan.
