印度软件专业人员工作场所精神性与员工创造力的关系:心理授权的中介作用

目的研究工作场所灵性与员工创造力的关系，并检验心理授权在这一关系中的中介作用。设计/方法/方法与SurveyMonkeyTM开发的在线调查已通过LinkedIn分享给750名在印度工作的软件专业人员。数据分析采用偏最小二乘-结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)，检验变量之间的中介作用采用Preacher和Hayes(2008)方法。PLS-SEM结果显示，工作场所灵性与员工创造力之间存在显著的正相关关系。工作场所灵性与心理赋权之间也存在正相关关系。传教士和海耶斯(2008)的中介结果表明，心理授权在工作场所灵性和员工创造力之间具有部分中介作用。原创性/价值本研究填补了这一空白，这一空白直到今天才得到解决，可能被认为是同类研究中的第一项，该研究直接试图了解印度裔员工的工作场所精神和员工创造力之间的联系。
