Abstract

ABSTRACT This research relies on bifactor models to help improve our understanding of the dimensionality of the psychological empowerment construct. We also examined the configurations, or profiles, taken by psychological empowerment dimensions, and documented their stability over time as well as the associations between these profiles and theoretically-relevant predictors (workload, supervisor support, overall organizational justice, and role clarity) and outcomes (alcohol consumption, sleeping difficulties, and depressive symptoms). A sample of 750 healthcare workers completed a questionnaire twice over a one-year period. First, our results showed that employees’ psychological empowerment ratings simultaneously reflected a global overarching construct co-existing with four specific dimensions (competence, impact, meaning, and self-determination). Then, five profiles were identified and found to be highly stable over time: Low Empowerment, Moderately High Empowerment and Impact, Normative, High Empowerment, and Moderately High Empowerment and High Meaning. Role clarity was also associated with a higher likelihood of membership into the High Empowerment profile and a lower likelihood of membership into the Low Empowerment one relative to the other profiles. Finally, employees’ depressive symptoms were the highest in the Low Empowerment profile.

纵向心理赋权概况，其决定因素和一些健康相关的结果

摘要本研究依靠双因子模型来帮助我们提高对心理赋权结构维度的理解。我们还检查了心理赋权维度的配置或概况，并记录了它们随时间的稳定性，以及这些概况与理论相关预测因素（工作量、主管支持、整体组织公正性和角色清晰度）和结果（饮酒、睡眠困难和抑郁症状）之间的关联。750名医护人员在一年内完成了两次问卷调查。首先，我们的研究结果表明，员工的心理赋权评级同时反映了一个全球总体结构，该结构与四个特定维度（能力、影响、意义和自决）共存。然后，确定了五个概况，并发现随着时间的推移，它们是高度稳定的：低授权、中等高授权和影响、规范性、高授权和中等高授权高意义。与其他情况相比，角色明确性还与加入高授权情况的可能性更高和加入低授权情况的概率更低有关。最后，员工的抑郁症状在低授权人群中最高。
