Nonwork Influences on Withdrawal Cognitions: An Empirical Examination of an Overlooked Issue
研究非工作领域因素(如工作与非工作冲突、应对策略、组织支持)对员工离职意向的影响,发现非工作重要性分别与个人应对策略和组织支持的交互作用显著,且独立于组织承诺和工作满意度。
The aim of this research is to examine several dimensions of nonwork domains such as nonwork-to-work spillover, work/nonwork conflict, coping strategies, and organizational support for nonwork, and their relationship to withdrawal cognitions. Questionnaires were mailed to all employees of a school district in western Canada. A total of 300 usable questionnaires were returned: a response rate of 42%. The findings show that nonwork domain variables are significantly related to withdrawal cognitions. This was demonstrated mainly in two strong interaction effects between the importance of nonwork and personal coping strategies on the one hand, and between the importance of nonwork and perceived organizational support for nonwork on the other. The two interactions remain significant when two work variables, i.e., organizational commitment and job satisfaction, were entered into the regression as control variables. The paper concludes with proposed directions for future research based on the findings of this present work.
