Summary: | Summary:
This study reports the development of a short,
global measure of person-job fit (P-J fit). The
P-J Fit scale provides an assessment of the degree to which an
individual's knowledge, skills, abilities, needs and values match job
requirements. After a pilot study, the scale was tested with two samples:
Sample 1 consisted of 308 professionals from three occupational groups and
Sample 2 consisted of 174 adults working in call centres and related
administrative areas. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses indicated
that the nine items assess a single, global construct of P-J fit.
Construct and criterion-related validity were demonstrated by
correlating the scale with empowerment, job satisfaction and organizational
commitment. |
