Self-management perceptions and practices: a structural equations analysis
通过结构方程模型分析自我管理的测量,发现自我管理包含两个相对独立的方面,每个方面由四个子量表组成,并揭示了自我管理感知与实践之间的广泛关系。
Self-management has many potential benefits for organizations. However, application of self-management to organizational settings has been hampered by lack of theoretical frameworks for self-management specifically applied to work settings and by a corresponding dearth of psychometrically sound measures. This paper presents results of structural equations modeling of measures of self-management anchored in a revised version of the Brief and Aldag (1981) model of the self in organizational behavior. Using confirmatory factor analysis procedures (CFA), two a priori measures of self-management are examined. Results point to two relatively distinct facets of self-management, each of them composed of four relatively independent subscales. Finally, a structural model evidencing a pervasive set of relationships between self-management perceptions and self-management practices is provided. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
