To address this gap, we measured salient Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) constructs, namely self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and interest in engineering, at four time points to explore the relationship between persistence intentions and changes in those constructs within individual students. Participants were enrolled in introductory engineering courses during their first semester of their engineering program of study. Using hierarchical linear modeling, engineering persistence intentions over their first semester were predicted from between-student differences in self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and interest and importantly within-person differences over time in the same suite of predictors.

Sample 1 (<em>n</em> = 544) revealed six distinct career competency profiles that emerge in the final year of education: the <em>underdeveloped, drifter, social explorer, seeker, navigator,</em> and <em>mature</em> profiles. In addition to the level difference between the <em>navigator</em> and <em>mature</em> profiles, there were shape differences among the remaining profiles. Sample 2 (<em>n</em><sup><em>T1</em></sup> = 1388) replicated the six profiles and revealed that the career competency profiles in individuals' final year in education predicted employment status, perceived employability, underemployment, and perceived transition satisfaction one year after graduation. Results on age, sex, and work experience as predictors of profile membership were mixed.

We further argue that such a sense of belonging not only redefines their position within their teams, but it also plays an important role in strengthening their work engagement. Data from 229 freelancers in diverse roles and countries support this model and underline the essential role of team dynamics in this regard, shifting the role of freelancers from peripheral participants to integral team members.

Our qualitative study of interviews with 21 female leaders with young children further revealed that work-family conflict undermines affective commitment through heightened resource depletion, reduced relational attachment, diminished organizational trustworthiness, and shifted work-life ideologies, particularly in organizations with strong work-priority climates.
