Abstract

PurposeFirst, this study aimed to investigate the association of time perspective (TP) profiles with work engagement and workaholism. Second, it tested TP profiles as the moderator of perfectionism with work engagement and workaholism relationship.Design/methodology/approachThe sample of this study comprised 148 Japanese employees, and snowball sampling was used for data collection. The authors found the TP profiles in the first step using cluster analysis with five TP dimensions. Next, the authors tested workaholism and work engagement in three clusters. The two dimensions of perfectionistic strivings and perfectionistic concerns were extracted through the exploratory factor analysis of Sakurai and Ohtani's (1997) perfectionism measure. Further, their relationship with workaholism and work engagement was tested in the TP profiles using multiple group analysis in structural equation modeling (SEM).FindingsThree TP profiles were found, which the authors named: Future (F), Hedonistic and Balanced. There was a significant difference between the three groups. Notably, working compulsively was significantly higher in the Future cluster in the three clusters. The moderator analysis results indicated that perfectionistic concerns positively affected workaholism in the Future cluster but not for the Balanced cluster.Originality/valueTo the best of authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the relationship between perspective profiles, workaholism and work engagement. The relationship between these factors can be a stepping stone for further research.

时间视角在日本员工工作狂、工作投入和完美主义关系中的调节作用

目的首先，本研究旨在调查时间视角（TP）档案与工作投入和工作狂的关系。其次，它测试了TP档案作为完美主义与工作投入和工作狂关系的调节因素。设计/方法/方法本研究的样本包括148名日本员工，数据收集采用滚雪球抽样。作者在第一步中使用五个TP维度的聚类分析找到了TP概况。接下来，作者在三个集群中测试了工作狂和工作投入。通过对Sakurai和Ohtani（1997）的完美主义测量的探索性因素分析，提取了完美主义追求和完美主义关注的两个维度。此外，使用结构方程建模（SEM）中的多组分析，在TP剖面中测试了他们与工作狂和工作投入的关系。发现了三个TP剖面，作者将其命名为：未来（F）、享乐主义和平衡。三组之间存在显著差异。值得注意的是，在三个集群中，强迫性工作在未来集群中明显更高。主持人分析结果表明，完美主义担忧对未来集群中的工作狂有积极影响，但对平衡集群没有影响。原创性/价值据作者所知，这是第一项调查视角简介、工作狂和工作投入之间关系的研究。这些因素之间的关系可以成为进一步研究的垫脚石。
