Abstract

PurposeThe study examined the relationship between human resource (HR) signals and intent to stay (ITS) in an attributional framework. It also investigated the mediating role of psychological contract fulfillment in the relationship between the strength of HR signal and ITS.Design/methodology/approachThe data were collected from 460 managers in the manufacturing sector from eastern India using a structured questionnaire. The study adopted a mediated structural equation model to test the model fit and hypotheses.FindingsThe study confirmed the relationship between the strength of the H R signal and the ITS, and the mediating role of psychological contract fulfillment between the strengths of HR signals and ITS. The study indicates a positive role of the psychological contract fulfillment in strengthening the effect of HR signals on ITS.Originality/valueThe study adds to the body of knowledge by confirming a signaling role of HR practices within the firm having the attributional ability. It also indicates the role of psychological contract fulfillment in employee retention.

人力资源信号强度与留守意愿：心理契约履行的中介作用

目的本研究在归因框架下考察了人力资源（HR）信号与居留意向（ITS）之间的关系。它还调查了心理契约履行在人力资源信号强度和信息技术之间关系中的中介作用。设计/方法/方法使用结构化问卷从印度东部制造业的460名管理人员中收集数据。本研究采用中介结构方程模型来检验模型的拟合和假设。研究结果证实了HR信号强度与ITS之间的关系，以及心理契约履行在HR信号强度和ITS之间的中介作用。该研究表明，心理契约履行在加强人力资源信号对ITS.Originality/value的影响方面发挥着积极作用。该研究通过确认人力资源实践在具有归因能力的公司中的信号作用，增加了知识体系。它还表明了心理契约履行在员工留用中的作用。
