An Analysis of the Psychological Work Environments Facilitating Technology Innovations

기술혁신을 촉진하는 심리적 작업환경에 관한 연구 -후원적 작업환경과 도전적 작업환경을 중심으로-

The psychological work environments which facilitate technology innovations in organizations are divided into two dimensions of supportive work environments and challenging work environments. The confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the construct validity of two work environments. And simple and hierarchical regression analysis confirmed the significant effects of two work environments on motivations to the technology innovations. Therefore, Both of the challenging work environments(uncertainty of exta- organizational environments and tasks) and supportive work environments(managerial environments of intra-organizations) are the two important psychological work environments which facilitate technology innovations in organizations.
