Frequently Asked Questions (9)
Q2. What is the main reason why people cannot achieve their work goals?
When the external environment lacks resources, individuals cannot reduce the potentially negative influence of high job demands and they cannot achieve their work goals.
Q3. What is the well-known situational variable that has been proposed as a potential buffer?
Social support is probably the most well-known situational variable that has been proposed as a potential buffer against job stress (e.g., Haines, Hurlbert, & Zimmer, 1991; Johnson & Hall, 1988; see Van der Doef & Maes, 1999, for a review).
Q4. what are the characteristics of the work situation that may act as moderators?
Other characteristics of the work situation that may act as moderators are (a) theextent to which the onset of a stressor is predictable (e.g., role ambiguity and feedback), (b) the extent to which the reasons for the presence of a stressor are understandable (e.g., through information provided by supervisors), and (c) the extent to which aspects of the stressor are controllable by the person who must experience it (e.g., job autonomy; Kahn & Byosiere, 1992).
Q5. Why did Warr recommend to include such a broad range of job positions?
Warr (1990) has advised to include such a broad range of job positions for the test of relationships between job characteristics and outcomes because this would increase the probability to find variation in job characteristics.
Q6. What is the common reason why employees do not have resources?
when employees do possess resources (such as support from colleagues or having the ability to organize one’s own work) they tend to go beyond actual goal accomplishment (job crafting; Wrzesniewski & Dutton, 2001).
Q7. What is the important predictor of extra-role performance?
Hypothesis 2: Job resources (and not job demands) will be the most important predictors of extra-role performance, through their influence on disengagement.
Q8. What is the effect of the nonsignificant interaction on the performance of employees?
The nonsignificant interaction effect may be attributable to the specific demands and resources included in the current study, as well as the type of job positions that were investigated.
Q9. What is the relationship between job burnout and performance?
Although job burnout is known to negatively affect job satisfaction and organizational commitment, and creates such undesired behaviors as personnel turnover and absenteeism (see Lee & Ashforth, 1996, for an overview), its relationship with an organization’s most important outcome—namely, job performance—has hardly received any research attention.
