Abstract

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate which work factors researchers in the institute sector consider important for their well-being and presence at work. We interviewed eight researchers in depth regarding work, well-being, and presence at work. By use of content analysis, we identified five main themes associated with well-being and presence at work: performing high-quality research; meaningful work; job demands; autonomy; and social support. The opportunity to perform high-quality research was the most important condition for the researchers’ well-being and presence at work. This theme seems to be intertwined with the association between all the other four themes and well-being and presence, and may therefore be regarded as being at a higher level than the other themes. To promote well-being and presence at work, it is important to provide administrative support and to organize work so that the researchers can concentrate on what they regard as core work tasks.

研究人员的工作、幸福感和存在感

摘要本研究的目的是调查哪些工作因素在研究所部门的研究人员认为重要的是他们的幸福和存在的工作。我们就工作、幸福感和工作状态深入采访了八位研究人员。通过使用内容分析，我们确定了与幸福感和工作在场感相关的五个主要主题:进行高质量的研究;有意义的工作;工作要求;自治;还有社会支持。有机会进行高质量的研究是研究人员在工作中幸福感和存在感的最重要条件。这个主题似乎与所有其他四个主题与幸福和存在之间的联系交织在一起，因此可能被视为比其他主题更高的层次。为了促进工作中的幸福感和存在感，提供行政支持和组织工作是很重要的，这样研究人员就可以专注于他们认为的核心工作任务。
