“…J. G. Kim, Kim, and Lee (2019) performed a meta-analysis of the bivariate relations between job search self-efficacy and a variety of variables in the self-management model, reporting theory-consistent relations of self-efficacy to outcome expectations, support (but not barriers), personality variables, and job search goals, behaviors, and outcomes (e.g., job offers, anxiety).…”

Social cognitive career theory (SCCT) was introduced 25 years ago. The theory originally included three interrelated models of (a) career and academic interest development, (b) choice-making, and (c) performance. It was later expanded to include two additional models, one focusing on educational and occupational satisfaction, or well-being, and the other emphasizing the process of career self-management over the life span. On this, the silver anniversary of SCCT, we consider the progress made in studying these two most recent models. In addition to reviewing existing findings, we cite promising directions for future research and application. Examples include additional study of model combinations that may shed greater light on choice persistence, possibilities for using the self-management model to study aspects of career development that are relevant to other theories, and the importance of theory-guided applications to aid preparation for, and coping with, uncertainties in the future world of work.

“…In the search for relevant factors in the job search process, recent studies have pointed job search self-efficacy as one of the key variables in the promotion of adaptability during the job search process, and for gaining more job offers, among others 53. Therefore, this dimension might be a key characteristic to gain control over their behaviour and to become more productive in their employment search among job seekers 54.…”

IntroductionOver the last decade, emotion regulation has drawn much attention in the organisational literature, specifically in career outcomes. Although the relationship between emotion regulation and career outcomes has been well established, potential mechanisms that might account for this relationship are still unclear.MethodThis study attempts to narrow this gap by examining the mediating effect of proactivity and job search self-efficacy on the relationship between emotion regulation and career outcomes in a sample consisting of 399 graduates (277 women, 122 men) with ages ranging from 22 to 60 years (M=30.5, SD=8.26).ResultsStructural equation modelling showed partial mediation effects of job search self-efficacy between emotion regulation and career outcomes. However, no mediating effect was found for proactivity.DiscussionThese results suggest that the promotion of emotion regulation and self-efficacy may be fundamental in the development of programmes for career outcomes. Finally, implications and limitations of the present findings are discussed.

“…Relationships provide employees with the support needed to cope with difficult workplace situations (Jungst and Blumberg, 2016; Schreurs et al, 2012) and provide new opportunities to enhance or provide personal and job resources (Hobfoll et al, 1990). For example, individuals who are well connected to others might have higher levels of self-efficacy (Kim et al, 2019) and have access to timely feedback to achieve their personal goals (Burt, 2009). As such, relationship intensity can buffer against a (perceived) resource loss and can reinforce already existing resources at work (Hobfoll et al, 1990).…”

Research on workplace conflict has given relatively little attention to the impact of national context on the perception toward task conflict by employees. By drawing on the conservation of resources theory, we investigate the mediating role of employee engagement between task conflict and extra-role performance in two nations: the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Netherlands. Results from 137 Chinese and 95 Dutch employees indicate a positive association between task conflict and extra-role performance in the PRC but a negative association in the Netherlands. Results also show that employee engagement mediates the association between task conflict and extra-role performance in both countries. We also find that relationship intensity moderates the association between task conflict and extra-role performance, through employee engagement, in both the PRC and the Netherlands. We discuss implications for theory and practice as well as offer future research directions.
