  • Digital job crafting and its positive impact on job performance: The perspective of individual-task-technology fit

    Subjects: Psychology >> Management Psychology submitted time 2023-01-30

    Abstract:

    With the booming development of digital economy and digital technology, digital transformation has changed from an "optional" choice for some leading enterprises to a "mandatory" requirement for more enterprises. However, many companies face several problems in the digital transformation process such as slow performance growth and insufficient transformation sustainability. Among possible reasons for these problems, the misfit between employees' digital competencies, digital technologies, and digital job demands (i.e., individual-task-technology misfit) is the main one. Therefore, understanding how employees can proactively change the digital job environment and increase individual-task-technology fit to improve job performance has both theoretical and practical implications. Based on the job crafting research and individual-task-technology fit theory, this project proposes a new concept called digital job crafting and explore the mechanisms for the effect of digital job crafting on employees' job performance. Meanwhile, from the perspectives of colleagues, leaders, and organizational structure, this project will examine digital job crafting support, digital leadership, and
    organizational formalization as potential boundary conditions of the relationship between digital job crafting and job performance. We intend to test our hypotheses using focus group interviews, case studies, multi-source and multi-wave surveys, and daily diary surveys. This project will contribute to expanding digital job research from a proactive adaptation perspective and initiate new research themes for job crafting research. It also provides theoretical guidance and practical intervention plans for employees to proactively adapt to digital transformation and gain digital intelligence dividends.

  • Differential responses of employees to corporate social responsibility: An interpretation based on attribution theory

    Subjects: Psychology >> Management Psychology submitted time 2020-02-05

    Abstract: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) attributions refer to the process through which individuals make subjective judgments regarding a company’s motivations for implementing CSR practices. CSR attributions are crucial for CSR practices to have their intended positive effects. We review the literature on CSR attributions in order to summarize the individual, leadership, and organizational factors influencing CSR attributions. In addition, from the perspectives of social exchange and social identity theories, the influence mechanisms of CSR attributions on employee attitudes and behaviors are discussed. We provide suggestions for future research including: (1) Clarify the unique antecedents and outcomes of different corporate social responsibility attributions; (2) Draw on attribution theory to explore the mechanisms through which CSR attributions are formed; (3) Explore how multiple factors influence CSR attributions at the same time; (4) Investigate how attributions influence CSR fairness heuristics; (5) Conduct localized research on CSR attributions in the Chinese context.

  • Social-to-consumption transition mechanism in social commerce

    Subjects: Psychology >> Applied Psychology submitted time 2019-11-11

    Abstract: Users being able to transit between social context and consumption context is a critical feature of social commerce. However, these transitions have been largely overlooked in the current research on social commerce adoption. In order to fill this research gap, a new concept called social-to-consumption transition which refers to transitions from social context to consumption context in social commerce networks or communities is proposed. Based on the boundary theory to explore antecedents and promotion mechanism of social-to-consumption transition will contribute to a broader and more comprehensive understanding of social commerce adoption, facilitate theory development in research on social commerce, and have important practical implications for promoting social-to-consumption transition. Specifically, there are four aspects of contents to explore: (1) the connotation and extension of social-to-consumption transition; (2) the potential influence of community integration supplies on consumers’ integrated social boundary creation and social-to-consumption transition; (3) the potential influence of boundary segmentation preference on integrated social boundary creation and social-to-consumption transition; (4) the moderating effect of community boundary customized climate on the relationship between integrated social boundary creation and social-to-consumption transition.

  • Phubbing: Antecedents , consequences and functioning mechanisms

    Subjects: Psychology >> Social Psychology submitted time 2019-02-20

    Abstract: In the age of mobile Internet, it is common for people to focus on their mobile phones while neglecting other people or events around them in social situations. This phenomenon refers to phubbing. In the current paper, we systematically reviewed relevant studies, and summarized the antecedents, consequences, and functioning mechanisms of phubbing. Building on them, we proposed several directions for future research, including using a person-centered approach to explore how phubbing develops, examining the effects of phubbing from the boundary creation perspective, demonstrating the mutual influence of phubbing and interpersonal relationship quality, clarifying the impact of phubbing on the phubbers, and exploring the functioning mechanisms based on the perspective of non-interpersonal perception.
