Abstract

PurposeThough the recent conceptualization of career sustainability, defining its indicators and dimensions prompted an important field of careers research, empirical research is still in its infancy. The current study empirically investigates how proactive personality, career adaptability and proactive career behaviors promote career sustainability based on the career construction model of adaptation.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used a two-wave survey design to collect data from 414 full-time working professionals representing different organizations located in India. The authors tested the proposed hypotheses using structural equation modeling in IBM SPSS AMOS.FindingsResults supported a serial indirect effect model with career adaptability and proactive career behaviors carrying the effect of proactive personality on career sustainability.Originality/valueThe study contributes to the emerging sustainable careers literature by unveiling the role of individual factors in career sustainability. Furthermore, the authors investigated these relationships through the complete career construction model of adaptation. By doing so, the current study contributes to careers literature by revealing the linkage between the career construction model of adaptation and career sustainability.

个人因素如何影响职业可持续性?基于适应职业建构模型的级联效应研究

目的尽管最近对职业可持续性的概念化、定义其指标和维度促使了职业研究的一个重要领域，但实证研究仍处于初级阶段。本研究基于适应的职业构建模型，实证研究了积极主动的人格、职业适应性和积极主动的职业行为如何促进职业可持续性。设计/方法/方法作者采用两波调查设计，从代表印度不同组织的414名全职专业人员中收集数据。作者在IBM SPSS AMOS中使用结构方程模型对所提出的假设进行了检验。结果支持了一个具有职业适应性和主动职业行为的系列间接效应模型，该模型携带了主动人格对职业可持续性的影响。独创性/价值该研究揭示了个人因素在职业可持续性中的作用，为新兴的可持续职业文献做出了贡献。此外，作者通过适应的完整职业构建模型来调查这些关系。通过这样做，本研究通过揭示适应的职业构建模式与职业可持续性之间的联系，为职业文献做出了贡献。

期刊介绍： Careers and Development are inter-related fields of study with connections to many academic disciplines, organizational practices and policy developments in the emerging knowledge economies and learning societies of the modern world. Career Development International provides a platform for research in these areas that deals with questions of theories and theory development, as well as with organizational career strategy, policy and practice. Issues of theory and of practice may be dealt with at individual, organizational and society levels. The international character of submissions may have two aspects. Submissions may be international in their scope, dealing with a topic that is of concern to researchers throughout the world rather than of sole interest to a national audience. Alternatively, submissions may be international in content, relating, for example, to comparative analyses of careers and development across national boundaries, or dealing with inherently ''international'' issues such as expatriation. Coverage: -Individual careers - psychological and developmental perspectives -Career interventions (systems and tools, mentoring, etc) -Government policy and practices -HR planning and recruitment -International themes and issues (MNCs, expatriation, etc) -Organizational strategies and systems -Performance management -Work and occupational contexts
