Abstract
We respond to calls to examine the implications of creative performance by exploring the mediating role of pride in the relationship between self-rated creative performance and job self-efficacy and the moderating role of workaholism in these relationships. We collected data from a sample of 405 employees in China with a three-wave time-lagged design in Study 1 and a sample of 352 employees in the United States with a three-wave panel design in Study 2. Study 1 and Study 2 provided convergent evidence that self-rated creative performance at Time 1 positively is related to pride at Time 2, which, in turn, positively related to job self-efficacy at Time 3. Extending Study 1, Study 2 indicated that the indirect effect of self-rated creative performance on job self-efficacy via pride was only significant for employees with low workaholism. Our study contributes to the literature by taking the first attempt to explore how, why, and when self-rated creative performance is related to job self-efficacy and by highlighting the critical roles of pride and workaholism. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
