Experiencing work as a calling has been associated with various positive work-related attitudes and outcomes. Recent studies have examined personal and contextual factors related to job calling; however, gaps remain in the literature on how employees' perception of organizational environment may lead to the formation of employees' job calling. We focused on psychological climate of innovation as the predictor of employees' job calling and further investigated its effect on extra-role behaviors, including innovative work behavior (IWB) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). A total of 165 Malaysian employees from diverse industries and organizations participated in a self-reported online questionnaire. We found support for the mediation model in which the association between a psychological climate of innovation and increased extra-role behaviors through increased job calling. Altogether, these findings provided new insights into the important role of innovative climate on employees' job calling and the mediating role of job calling on extra-role behaviors within occupational settings. Theoretical and practical implications are further discussed.

Purpose: This descriptive study aimed to identify shift nurses' retention intention, need satisfaction, calling and vocation, and job stress, as well as the effects of these factors on retention intention. Methods: The participants of this study were 193 nurses working shifts with more than three months' clinical experience at general hospitals. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from February 1 to 28, 2023. Nurses' Retention Index and Nurse Needs Satisfaction Scale, Korean version of the Calling and Vocational Questionnaire, Korean Occupational Stress Scale were used. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. Independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis were conducted for statistical analysis. Results: Regarding nurses' shift work, the mean scores for retention intention, needs satisfaction, calling and vocation, and job stress were 32.12±9.04, 94.87±14.74, 26.95±6.84, and 66.12±10.34. Moreover, the nurses' retention intention differed significantly by age, education level, religion, marital status, clinical experience, satisfaction with wage, and job satisfaction. Furthermore, retention intention was positively correlated with needs satisfaction and calling and vocation and negatively correlated with job stress. Needs satisfaction, and calling and vocation as well as education level of bachelor's degree, job satisfaction had positive effects on shift work nurses' retention intention. Job dissatisfaction had relatively negative effects on retention intention compared to having neutral job satisfaction. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop programs that promote needs satisfaction, calling and vocation, and job satisfaction to improve nurses' retention intention in relation to shift work; moreover, institutional support for acquiring a bachelor's degree or higher is needed.

최근 장기요양보험제도에 도입된 시장화와 공급주체 다원화의 영향으로 조직성과에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구는 장기요양시설의 조직성과에 요양보호사의 소명의식의 영향을 분석하고 그 경로에서 직무만족의 매개효과를 검증하기 위하여 서울시와 경기도의 요양보호사를 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 다중회귀분석으로 소명의식이 직무만족과 조직성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고 위계적 회귀분석으로 직무분석의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 분석 결과 소명의식은 조직성과와 직무만족에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤고, 직무만족은 소명의식과 효과성 사이에서 완전매개효과를, 소명의식과 효율성 사이에서는 부분매개효과를 나타냈다. 이를 바탕으로 직무만족 관리를 통하여 효과성을 제고하고, 직무만족과 소명의식을 관리하여 효율성을 관리할 필요성을 논의하였다.

The most widely used instrument to assess perceiving a calling, the CVQ(Calling and Vocational Questionnaire), is composed of three constructs: transcendent sermon, purposeful work, and prosocial orientation. Recently assessing perceiving a calling has received great attention and it is critical not only for job incumbents but also college students who are in the job search stage. The purpose of this study is to investigate measurement invariance of the Korean CVQ between employees and college students. 339 job incumbents and 252 college students participated in this study, and based on the multiple group confirmatory factor analysis from the structural equation model, we confirmed the measurement invariance between employees and college students at the scale level. Thus, the perceived calling scale is applicable to both employees and college students without biases. This study provided meaningful information in understanding calling, and we discussed limitations and future directions.

해양경찰공무원은 직무를 수행하면서 조직의 목표 뿐만 아니라 개인의 삶과 연결되어 있다. 이에 해양경찰공무원의 직업 소명의식과 직무열의는 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 이 연구는 해양경찰공무원의 발전에 대한 직업소명의식과 직무열의의 관계를 검증하는데 주목적이 있다. 연구의 진행을 위해 해양경찰공무원 136명을 대상으로 연구를 진행하였다. 직업소명의식의 하위변인은 초월적 부름, 목적·의미 존재, 친사회적 지향 동기로 구성되었으며, 직무열의는 활력, 몰두, 헌신으로 구성하였다. 검증 결과 해양경찰공무원이 인식하는 직업소명의식 하위변인인 초월적 부름과 목적·의미 존재는 직무열의의 하위변인 활력, 헌신, 몰두에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 직업소명의식 하위변인 친사회적 지향 동기는 직무열의 하위변인인 활력, 헌신, 몰두에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 분석 결과를 통해 해양경찰 조직의 실무적 시사점을 제안하였다.

본 연구는 보육교사의 직업소명의식이 직무만족도 간의 관계에서 사회적 지지의 구조적 관계를 밝히는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 대상은 대전과 충남지역 보육교사 270명을 지역적 위치를 고려하여 임의표집하여 전체 표본의 크기로 설정하였다. 2017년 7월 1일부터 8월 14일까지 설문을 실시하였으며, 설문조사를 실시한 후 내용을 불성실하게 기재하였거나 신뢰할 수 없는 14부를 제외한 257부(95,1%)를 분석자료로 사용하였다. 분석과정에서 밝혀진 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 사회적 지지에 대해 직업소명의 직접효과는 통계적으로 유의미하였다. 둘째, 직무만족도에 대해 직업소명의식과 사회적 지지는 모두 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 직업소명의식은 사회적 지지를 매개로 하여 직무만족도에 유의미한 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 결론적으로 보육교사의 직업소명의식이 사회적 지지를 받을 때, 직무만족도는 높아지는 것을 알았다. 보육교직원의 직업소명을 높이는 사회적 심리적 지원시스템을 체계적으로 구축할 필요가 있다.

Purpose: This study was designed to examine effects of sense of calling, job satisfaction and organizational commitment on retention intention in nurses who are at the advanced beginner-stage. Methods: Participants were 199 nurses with 13 to 36 months' clinical career at hospital located in Busan, Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation, and Multiple regression. Results: Retention intention correlated positively with sense of calling (r=.43, p<.001), job satisfaction (r=.31, p<.001) and organizational commitment (r=.31, p<.001). Factors affecting the participants' retention intention were found to be statistically significant (F=21.96, p<.001). Total factor score accounted for 24.1% of retention intention. Out of the related factors, the most influential factor was 'goals/meaning', belonging to the sub-areas of the sense of calling and explaining 18.2% of retention intention, followed by organizational commitment and average monthly income in that order. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a need to develop a management program that helps promote retention intention for nurses at the advanced beginner-stage by both improving their monthly income and outside conditions and, more importantly, raising their sense of calling, especially in association with the goals/meaning of their life.
