Innovation in the workplace has been claimed to be a key factor in organizational survival and success. As future workers, university students are a major source of future innovations in organizational settings. Before they enter the labour market, it is in the context of Higher Education that they start developing some of their long-term behaviours, such as innovation behaviours. This study aims to explore the main determinants of university students' innovation behaviours from a longitudinal perspective. The sample comprised 78 students of Psychology, Management, Fine Arts and Education. Our results show that previous innovation behaviours as freshmen, current levels of autonomy and cognitive demands are positively related with individual innovation among university students. Practical implications regarding how to foster innovation efforts in the context of Higher Education are discussed.
Feri Lainšček, escritor, poeta, dramático y escenógrafo, vive y trabaja en Murska Sobota. Es oriundo de la región de Prekmurje, en la parte este del país que colinda con Hungría, Austria y Croacia, uno de los lugares más peculiares y menos conocidos de Eslovenia. Esa llanura tan típica de la región (ravnica) ha marcado en gran medida su literatura, como puede apreciarse en la mayoría de sus novelas.
