Control over business trips has been considered an important resource for frequent business travelers. Building on past research and conservation of resources theory, this two-wave study among 210 frequent business travelers investigated whether work meaning moderates the relationship between two kinds of control, job control and trip-scheduling control, and two important work outcomes, work satisfaction and perceived task performance. Hierarchical regression analyses showed that when work meaning was lower, trip-scheduling control was negatively related to work satisfaction and perceived task performance 6 months later. However, there were no significant interactions between job control and work meaning on the two outcomes. Findings support the reasoning that trip-scheduling control is of specific importance in the context of business travel and that this particular kind of control is not per se positive but contingent on work meaning and thus the larger context.","PeriodicalId":44883,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Arbeits-Und Organisationspsychologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82711966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emerging technologies at work encourage the collection and storage of large amounts of data. However, these vast quantities of data are likely to impair efficient work decisions by employees over time, with negative consequences for the organization. As human attention increasingly represents the scarce resource at work, the present paper focuses on a mechanism of attentional control at work – namely, intentionally forgetting unwanted and outdated internal (e. g., knowledge) and external (e. g., digital objects) information. The purpose of this paper is threefold. Based on a short review of the research on intentional forgetting, a prototypical conceptualization of an interactive assistive system (Dare2Del, cognitive companion) is provided, which should support employees in temporally ignoring or permanently deleting outdated information. Then, we completed a critical incident study to examine why and when employees might want to forget information at work, and to identify in which working situations an assistive system should be particularly helpful.","PeriodicalId":44883,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Arbeits-Und Organisationspsychologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83029970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wie hängen berufliche Gratifikationskrisen, arbeitsbezogene Erschöpfung und die Wahrscheinlichkeit gesundheitsbedingter Frühberentungen bei Polizisten zusammen? Anhand der Daten eines Gesundheitsmonitorings von N = 811 Polizisten wurde dieser Frage mittels hierarchischer linearer und ordinaler Regressionsanalysen nachgegangen. Die Polizisten gaben im Vergleich zur deutschen Erwerbsbevölkerung und auch zu anderen Polizeistichproben höhere Werte beruflicher Gratifikationskrisen an. Berufliche Gratifikationskrisen und die Subdimensionen Verausgabung, Wertschätzung, berufliche Entwicklung, Konstanz der Arbeitssituation sowie Verausgabungsbereitschaft leisteten signifikante Vorhersagebeiträge zur arbeitsbezogenen Erschöpfung und der subjektiven Wahrscheinlichkeit einer gesundheitsbedingten Frühberentung, auch unter Kontrolle weiterer beeinflussender Variablen (Alter, chronische Erkrankung, Einsatzbeteiligung, Beschäftigungsort). Die Ergebnisse geben Hinweise für mögliche Interventionen zur Verminderung beruflicher Gratifikationskrisen und zur Vorbeugung von Arbeitsausfällen aufgrund von Erschöpfung und Frühberentungen.","PeriodicalId":44883,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Arbeits-Und Organisationspsychologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2019-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83320182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In der Sozialpsychologie wird eine Reihe von Kommunikationsstrategien beschrieben, die den Zweck verfolgen, Einstellung oder Verhalten einer Person in Richtung der Ziele des Kommunikators zu verändern. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit haben in der Persuasionsforschung die sog. Compliance-Techniken erfahren ( Cialdini, 2013 ), die eine Person dazu bewegen sollen, der Bitte einer anderen Person nachzukommen. Drei dieser Gesprächstechniken, die Foot-in-the-Door-Technik (FITD), die Door-in-the-Face-Technik (DITF) und die Hard-to-Get-Technik (HTG), werden hier auf ein neues Anwendungsfeld übertragen, nämlich auf die telefonische Direktansprache von Kandidaten bei der Führungskräftevermittlung. In einem Feldexperiment mit insgesamt 128 potenziellen Jobkandidaten wird überprüft, ob die drei genannten Gesprächstechniken erfolgreicher sind als eine Standard-Ansprache, welche keinen Gebrauch von diesen Techniken macht. Der Vorteil der Compliance-Techniken gegenüber der Standard-Ansprache ist insgesamt betrachtet von mittlerer Stärke. Einzeln betrachtet erzeugt die FITD-Technik das höchste Interesse an dem Jobangebot, gefolgt von der HTG-Technik und der DITF-Technik. Die letztgenannte Technik erbringt keinen signifikant höheren Persuasionserfolg als die Standard-Ansprache. Neben theoretischen Implikationen der Ergebnisse werden Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung der telefonischen Direktansprache im kommerziellen und nicht-kommerziellen Sektor diskutiert.","PeriodicalId":44883,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Arbeits-Und Organisationspsychologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2019-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80840178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates factors influencing employeesʼ intention to stay. Therefore, we developed and analyzed a retention model relating to the voluntary turnover model ( Allen et al., 2010 ). We assume that the decision processes for retention and turnover might be similar. Differences can be found in the initiating factors (the drivers for leaving and staying). We combine empirically evident retention drivers, which are weighted regarding their implementation in the organization, with process variables from the turnover model. The model is tested with a sample of 881 German employees using structural equation modeling. Results show a significant indirect effect of the retention drivers on the intention to stay. The influence is mediated by the key attitudes job satisfaction and affective commitment. A psychological contract breach influences the relationship between job satisfaction and intention to stay, but not between affective commitment and intention to stay. We integrated research from Human Resource Management (HRM) into the framework of voluntary turnover.","PeriodicalId":44883,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Arbeits-Und Organisationspsychologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2019-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91140719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
