Abstract
This study explores the link between nonwork orientation (concern for life roles beyond careers) and employee job crafting, emphasizing the mediating role of life satisfaction and the moderating effect of age, using 1-month time-lagged data from 305 Korean employees aged 23 to 58 (mean = 42.0, standard deviation (SD) = 8.5). The study confirmed the anticipated results, highlighting that the impact of life satisfaction on job crafting is stronger for younger employees (1 SD below the mean) than for older ones (1 SD above the mean). These findings provide valuable insights for career practitioners and policymakers considering employees’ nonwork interests.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
