Abstract

The present study investigated the mediating role of basic psychological needs at work in the association between work values to three outcomes related to psychological well-being at work: work engagement, turnover intention, and emotional exhaustion. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze data from two French–Canadian samples of adult workers (N₁ = 479; N₂ = 652). Results suggested that intrinsic–social work values promote well-being at work. Moreover, this study highlights the psychological cost of endorsing extrinsic and status work values. Meanwhile, psychological need satisfaction at work mediated the association between intrinsic–social work values and two outcomes: work engagement and turnover intention. Also, psychological need frustration at work mediated the association between extrinsic work values and emotional exhaustion. These findings suggest that career development and organizational interventions should promote intrinsic–social work values to enhance and support psychological well-being at work.

心理需求在工作价值观与幸福感指标关联中的中介作用

本研究探讨了工作基本心理需求在工作价值观与工作心理健康相关的三个结果（工作投入、离职倾向和情绪耗竭）之间的中介作用。采用结构方程模型分析了两个法裔加拿大成年工人样本（N1 = 479; N2 = 652）的数据。结果表明，内在社会工作价值观促进了工作幸福感。此外，本研究强调了认同外在和地位工作价值观的心理成本。同时，工作心理需求满意度在内在社会工作价值观与工作投入和离职倾向的关系中起中介作用。工作中的心理需要挫败感在外在工作价值与情绪耗竭之间起中介作用。这些发现表明，职业发展和组织干预应该促进内在社会工作价值观，以增强和支持工作中的心理健康。
