Abstract(s)
A literatura reconhece a necessidade de se continuar a aprofundar estudos entre os campos de Psicologia do Trabalho e das Organizações e de Psicologia Vocacional e do Desenvolvimento de Carreira. Deste modo, o presente estudo procura identificar perfis de indivíduos ao nível das valências, da satisfação no trabalho e do sexo, explorando se diferentes perfis se associam a maiores/menores intenções de turnover. Utilizou-se um desenho transversal de natureza quantitativa e uma abordagem não probabilística. Participaram neste estudo 315 trabalhadores do setor público e privado, a desempenharem atividades no território português ou estrangeiro. Os dados foram recolhidos em formato online, através de um protocolo constituído por quatro instrumentos: um Questionário Sociodemográfico, a Work Valences Scale, a Brief Index of Affective Job Satisfaction.e a Escala de Intenção de Turnover. Efetuaram-se análises descritivas, testes estatísticos de associação e análise de clusters. Encontraram-se algumas correlações estatisticamente significativas e negativas entre a satisfação no trabalho e as intenções de turnover e entre as valências de trabalho positivas e as intenções de turnover; foram também encontradas correlações estatisticamente significativas e positivas entre as valências de trabalho positivas e a satisfação no trabalho. Adicionalmente, os resultados permitiram diferenciar dois perfis de indivíduos ao nível das valências e satisfação no trabalho, tendo-se distinguido cada um dos clusters mediante as suas características particulares. Ainda neste trabalho, serão apresentadas as suas implicações práticas e as limitações apontadas ao estudo.
The literature recognizes the need for further in-depth studies in the fields of Work and Organizational Psychology and Vocational and Career Development Psychology. Thus, this study seeks to identify profiles of individuals in terms of valences, job satisfaction and gender, exploring whether different profiles are associated with greater/lesser turnover intentions. A cross-sectional quantitative design and a nonprobabilistic approach were used. A total of 315 workers from the public and private sectors, working in Portugal or abroad, participated in this study. Data were collected online, through a protocol consisting of four instruments: a Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Work Valences Scale, the Brief Index of Affective Job Satisfaction and the Turnover Intention Scale. Descriptive analyses, statistical association tests and cluster analysis were performed. Some statistically significant and negative correlations were found between job satisfaction and turnover intentions and between positive job valences and turnover intentions; statistically significant and positive correlations were also found between positive job valences and job satisfaction. Furthermore, the results allowed us to differentiate two profiles of individuals in terms of job valences and job satisfaction, with each of the clusters being distinguished according to their characteristics. This paper will also present its practical implications, and the limitations pointed out in the study.
