Abstract

Working from self-determination theory, this study explored the impact of selforiented perfectionism and socially prescribed perfectionism on work engagement, highlighting the roles of work meaningfulness and work stress as mediators in this relationship. Data from 278 employees working in Chinese companies showed that self-oriented perfectionism had a positive direct effect on work engagement, and a positive indirect effect on work engagement via work meaningfulness. Meanwhile, socially prescribed perfectionism had a negative direct effect on work engagement, and a negative indirect effect on work engagement via work stress. This study reveals the important role of motivation in the relationship between perfectionism and work engagement, and provides new ideas for improving employee work engagement.

完美主义对工作投入的影响:动机视角

本研究从自决理论出发，探讨了自我导向完美主义和社会规定完美主义对工作投入的影响，强调了工作意义和工作压力在这种关系中的中介作用。来自278名中国公司员工的数据显示，自我导向的完美主义对工作投入有积极的直接影响，通过工作意义对工作投入也有积极的间接影响。同时，社会规定的完美主义对工作投入有负面的直接影响，通过工作压力对工作投入也有负面的间接影响。本研究揭示了动机在完美主义与工作敬业度关系中的重要作用，为提高员工的工作敬业度提供了新的思路。
