Carlotta Böge: Die Effekte der Zielorientierung auf den Berufserfolg, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Regarding their Goal orientation people can be divided into those that strife to enhance their skills (learning goal orientation / LGO) and those that aim to demonstrate their advanced skills (performance-approach goal orientation / PApGO) or hide their inferior skills (performance-avoidance goal orientation / PAvGO). The study analyzes the relation between the two dimensions of goal orientation and the career success based on a sample of 260 participants of age 50+ that are currently employed or have been so in the past. For the LGO the expected positive relation with the career success can only be established for the self-assessed career success. Opposed to theoretical argu-ments the negative relation between PApGO and career success cannot be es-tablished. For the PAvGO the expected negative relation could, however, be established. Additionally, it has been shown that an effect of conscientiousness on the rela-tion between LGO and career success is likely.
