摘要
Employee feedback-seeking behaviour is important to improve job performance and organizational effectiveness. This study investigates the mediating role of psychological meaningfulness on job design and feedback-seeking behaviour. The study draws on empirical data gathered from 681 employees in a transportation service company in Taiwan, and uses structural equation modelling to test our proposed model. Empirical results suggest that psychological meaningfulness plays a crucial and mediating role in the relationships between job enrichment, work-role fit and feedback-seeking behaviour. The implications for practitioners are to stress the role of job design and its mediating process for feedback-seeking behaviour.
