Originating from partnerships with the Association for Talent Development (ATD, formerly ASTD), the journal has progressively grown and strategically established itself in human resource development (HRD). Its interdisciplinary nature has brought together relevant research fields such as economics, management, education, sociology, psychology, and technology (Egan & Kim, <span>2024</span>). The HRDQ Editorial Team now hosts a diverse array of content and methodological expertise from HRD, management, industrial organizational psychology, public administration, and advanced quantitative and qualitative methodologies.</p><p>As the journal has earned growing recognition in social science research (Clarivate SSCI/ISI), the number of submissions has steadily increased. Recently, we further enhanced and diversified our editorial team, striving for research excellence and impactful practices. Randall S. Davis, Taha Hameduddin, and Taehee Kim have newly been added to our Editorial Team, bringing strong quantitative expertise and in-depth knowledge of the international, public, and non-profit sectors. These new additions join our Associate Editor Team including Kate Black, Julia Fulmore, Caleb Seung-hyun Han, Sunghoon Kim, Kibum Kwon, Philseok Lee, John Mendy, Melika Shirmohammadi, Jian-Min (James) Sun, Pattanee Susomrith, and Zhen Wang.</p><p>HRDQ will continue to publish relevant topical research on “employee training, talent management, team development, management and leadership, knowledge management, organizational learning, organization development and change, strategic planning, performance management, feedback, motivation, HRD analytics, careers and global work, critical theory, virtual workplace, the future of work and learning, intersectionality, indigenous perspectives, participatory inquiry, human-technology intersections, etc.” (Kim et al., <span>2022</span>).</p><p>Following the first invited editorial on HRDQ's origins (Swanson, <span>2024</span>), this summer issue presents two additional invited editorial articles showcasing perspectives from the Editors-in-Chief across the journal's history. Gary McLean, HRDQ's second Editor-in-Chief, provides his reflections on the emergence of HRD scholarship and practice. The article, by former editor Baiyin Yang, advocates for HRD scholars to actively apply engaged scholarship, ensuring research is both academically rigorous and practically relevant. It discusses the tension between deeply engaging in the real world while maintaining the detached perspective necessary for objective, unbiased research, and suggests a dialectical approach given the complexity of the world.</p><p>The current issue contains four research articles.

This study aims to investigate the differences between the predictive variables for the expression of radical and incremental creativity and the combinations of the predictive variables, which aid in the expression of two types of creativity. A research survey was conducted with 600 employees working in newspaper, broadcasting, and film businesses. The results were derived by conducting a fuzzy‐set qualitative comparative analysis (fs/QCA) on 513 useful samples. Using necessity and sufficiency analysis of a fs/QCA, the results indicate that the three personal factors—job expertise, creative process engagement, and work engagement—are commonly required for two types of creativity. Conversely, organizational–environmental factors, a risk‐taking climate, and external networking behavior are only predictive variables of radical creativity. This study's results provide insights regarding the personal and environmental resources that employees must secure to express radical and incremental creativity. Because a clear difference was found in the factors required for the expression of the two types of creativity, based on the results of this study, Human Resource Development(HRD) can devise an effective method to support the expression of the two types of differential creativity.","PeriodicalId":47803,"journal":{"name":"Human Resource Development Quarterly","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140934173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study also examined the mediating role of perceived social validation and the moderating role of person‐group fit. Using a time‐lagged (three‐wave) field survey, data were collected from 350 newcomers working in numerous organizations. The findings suggested that organizational socialization of newcomers was positively related to their perceived social validation (2 months later), which in turn was positively related to team identity and organizational identity (4 months later). Moreover, person‐group fit significantly moderated the relationship of social validation with team identity, such that the relationship was stronger when person‐group fit was high. The findings indicate that team identity and organizational identity can be developed among newcomers through the use of effective socialization strategies and social validation.","PeriodicalId":47803,"journal":{"name":"Human Resource Development Quarterly","volume":"101 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140628422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
