摘要
We examined how occupational self-efficacy is related to organizational commitment, and how it indirectly influences work engagement. Participants were 328 part-time Master of Business Administration students in China. We used structural equation modeling and chisquare difference tests to analyze the data and assess the proposed mediating effect. Results showed that occupational self-efficacy had a direct effect on organizational commitment and an indirect effect on work engagement through the mediator of organizational commitment. Our findings extend previous results and show that occupational self-efficacy can be used to predict work engagement.
