Zest and work
研究了热忱这一积极特质与工作使命感、工作满意度和生活满意度的关系，发现热忱能预测这些积极结果，对组织学者有启发。
Abstract Zest is a positive trait reflecting a person's approach to life with anticipation, energy, and excitement. In the present study, 9803 currently employed adult respondents to an Internet site completed measures of dispositional zest, orientation to work as a calling, and satisfaction with work and life in general. Across all occupations, zest predicted the stance that work was a calling ( r = .39), as well as work satisfaction ( r = .46) and general life satisfaction ( r = .53). Zest deserves further attention from organizational scholars, especially how it can be encouraged in the workplace. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
