【摘要】 目标内容理论是自我决定理论的最新子理论,它从目标内容本身出发,将目标划分为内部目标与外部目标,进而研究其对主观幸福感、适应性等因素的影响。本研究在自我决定理论的框架下,探讨了目标内容对工作绩效的影响机制,即目标内容是否通过基本心理需求满足的中介作用对员工的工作绩效产生影响。利用国内国有、民营及外资三种企业的134份调查问卷的结果,采用层次回归分析的方法,验证了目标内容通过基本心理需求满足进而影响工作绩效。得出以下结果:第一,员工的外部目标与工作绩效呈现显著的负相关,相关系数为-0.253,而作为外部目标的经济成功和社会认同与工作绩效的相关系数分别为-0.231和-0.167;员工的内部目标与工作绩效呈现显著的正相关,相关系数为0.406,作为内部目标的身体健康,团体情感和职业规划分别于工作绩效的相关系数为0.167,0.485和0.156。第二,通过引入基本心理需求满足这一中介变量,研究发现员工的目标内容将通过其基本心理需求的满足进而影响工作绩效,其中外部目标通过对基本心理需求满足产生负向影响进而影响工作绩效,而内部目标通过对基本心理需求满足产生正向影响进而影响工作绩效。研究还发现,基本心理需求满足在内部目标和工作绩效之间起到部分中介的作用,而在外部目标和工作绩效之间起到完全中介的作用。本研究为企业管理者提供了有效的管理策略,即通过为员工提供有效的职业规划指导以及培训等,引导员工积极树立内部目标,同时创造条件满足员工的基本心理需求,从而促进员工工作绩效的提升。
【Abstract】 Goal content theory is the latest mini-theory of self-determination theory.Basing on goal content itself,goal content theory divided goals into intrinsic and extrinsic goals and explored the impact of goal content on wellbeing and adjustment.Drawing on self-determination theory,the study explored the influence mechanism of goal content on work performance,namely,whether goal content has an effect on work performance through the mediation of basic psychological needs satisfaction.We harnessed hierarchical regression analysis method to examine the influence the goal content has on work performance through basic psychological needs satisfaction,making use of the results of questionnaires which investigated 134 employees from three types of enterprise.The results are as follows.First,as predicted,extrinsic goals were notably negatively related to work performance,and the correlation was-0.253,and as extrinsic goals,financial success and social recognition are also negatively relatedto work performance,the correlations were-0.231 and-0.167;intrinsic goals were positively related to work performance,and the correlation was 0.406,physical health,community contribution,career plan,which belong to intrinsic goals,were also positively related to work performance,the correlation were 0.167,0.485 and 0.156 respectively.Second,with the introduction of the basic psychological needs satisfaction as a mediation variable,we found that the goal content of the staff would affect job performance through the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs.And the extrinsic goals affected the work performance through their negative impact on the basic psychological needs satisfaction and intrinsic goals through their positive impact.Besides,we found that the basic psychological needs satisfaction can partly mediated the effect of extrinsic goals on work performance,while it can fully mediated the effect of intrinsic goals on work performance.The study provided enterprise managers with several effective management strategies.For example,managers could offer effective career plan guidance and training to motivate employees‘ intrinsic goals.At the same time they could try to meet the employees’ basic psychological needs,thus promoting employees‘ job performance.
