The role of context in the psychological contract of skilled migrants
通过111名技术移民的纵向访谈，研究了接收国情境条件如何影响他们的心理契约，包括期望、组织承诺感知和契约违背，对管理全球人才有参考价值。
This qualitative longitudinal study investigates how the psychological contracts (PCs) of skilled migrants change in response to contextual conditions. It combines three phases of in-depth interviews with secondary data analysis (n = 111). In Phase 1 (2010−2012), 26 skilled migrants participated in the res. Repeat interviews were conducted in 2013 (n = 13) and 2014 (n = 14). The findings show how the skilled migrants' expectations, their perceptions of organisational promises and PC breaches are shaped by contextual conditions in the receiving country. This paper offers a contemporary approach to the PC framework and contributes to understanding how businesses can manage global talent.
