A longitudinal analysis of the impact of workplace empowerment on work satisfaction
通过纵向数据检验结构赋权与心理赋权变化对工作满意度的影响，发现结构赋权直接提升满意度，而心理赋权无额外解释力。
Abstract A longitudinal predictive design was used to test a model linking changes in structural and psychological empowerment to changes in job satisfaction. Structural equation modeling analyses revealed a good fit of the data from 185 randomly selected staff nurses to the hypothesized model. Changes in perceived structural empowerment had direct effects on changes in psychological empowerment and job satisfaction. Changes in psychological empowerment did not explain additional variance in job satisfaction beyond that explained by structural empowerment. The results suggest that fostering environments that enhance perceptions of empowerment can have enduring positive effects on employees. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
