Abstract
This work examined how the proactive personality influence the laboratory safety attitude with safety self-efficacy and safety motivation as mediators. The results demonstrated the chain mediation of safety self-efficacy and safety motivation between proactive personality and laboratory safety attitude. Proactive personality indirectly influences laboratory safety attitude through safety self-efficacy. And proactive personality does not directly affect safety motivation and laboratory safety attitude. The research findings remind us to provide regular safety training to improve graduate students’ safety skills and knowledge, thereby increasing their safety self-efficacy. The safety motivation should also be focused on. Furthermore, safety interventions based on personality traits and psychological needs should be customized, as well as the cultivation of team safety climate.
期刊介绍:
Education for Chemical Engineers was launched in 2006 with a remit to publisheducation research papers, resource reviews and teaching and learning notes. ECE is targeted at chemical engineering academics and educators, discussing the ongoingchanges and development in chemical engineering education. This international title publishes papers from around the world, creating a global network of chemical engineering academics. Papers demonstrating how educational research results can be applied to chemical engineering education are particularly welcome, as are the accounts of research work that brings new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating direction for future research relevant to chemical engineering education. Core topic areas: -Assessment- Accreditation- Curriculum development and transformation- Design- Diversity- Distance education-- E-learning Entrepreneurship programs- Industry-academic linkages- Benchmarking- Lifelong learning- Multidisciplinary programs- Outreach from kindergarten to high school programs- Student recruitment and retention and transition programs- New technology- Problem-based learning- Social responsibility and professionalism- Teamwork- Web-based learning
