Employee well‐being in organizations: Theoretical model, scale development, and cross‐cultural validation
通过定性与定量方法,发现员工幸福感包含生活、工作场所和心理三个维度,开发了信效度良好的量表,并在中美情境下验证了测量不变性,对跨文化组织行为研究有理论贡献。
Summary In this study, we explore the theoretical model and structural dimensions of employee well‐being (EWB) in organizations. Specifically, using both qualitative and quantitative methods, we find that EWB comprises three dimensions: life well‐being, workplace well‐being, and psychological well‐being. We establish the reliability and validity of the newly developed EWB scale through a series of quantitative studies, which indicate that EWB is significantly correlated with affective organizational commitment and job performance based on the data collected from multiple sources at two points in time. We find that EWB has measurement invariance (configural invariance) across Chinese and American contexts. We also discuss the theoretical contributions of these findings to cross‐cultural organizational behavior studies, along with the practical implications of our results.
