工作嵌入的概念、测量及相关变量

Concept, Measurement and Related Constructs of Job Embeddedness

工作嵌入代表个体与工作的嵌入程度,用于解释个体为什么留在组织中的一系列因素,具有非情感性、多维度的特点。工作嵌入明显区别于工作满意度、组织承诺等组织行为学变量,包括匹配、联结以及牺牲三个维度。该文明确了工作嵌入与相关变量的概念区别,重点介绍了工作嵌入测量方法的发展以及其在组织行为领域中的研究成果,并指出了今后有必要对其影响因素、测量工具、维度以及结果变量拓展等四个方面进行探讨。

This paper reviews and discusses the development of research on job embeddedness. Job embeddedness represents the degree how people embed into their job, which is non-affective and multi-dimensions. It describes a web of forces that cause people to stay in their job and it includes three dimensions： link, fit and sacrifice. It differs markedly from other constructs of organizational behavior such as job satisfaction and organizational commitment. This paper focuses on introducing ways of measuring job embeddedness and investigating the possible consequences of job embeddedness such as turnover intention. Finally the paper points out several areas for future research, such as antecedents and measurement.
