Abstract(s)
A presente investigação tem como principal objetivo perceber se a perceção de sobrequalificação prediz comportamentos de job crafting de tarefa, de cognição e de relação, com o fim de acrescentar conhecimento à literatura existente de ambos os construtos. Como tal, construiu-se a seguinte hipótese: Quando os trabalhadores se sentem mais sobrequalificados, tendem a desenvolver mais comportamentos de job crafting.
Para o avanço do estudo colaboraram 271 participantes, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 61 anos, selecionados a partir da população portuguesa, com habilitações académicas diferenciadas e que se encontrassem a exercer funções profissionais. Para medição das variáveis utilizaram-se dois instrumentos: a escala “Perceived Overqualification” (POQ) desenvolvida por Johnson, Morrow e Johnson (2002) e a escala “The Job Crafting Questionnaire” (JCQ) desenvolvida por Slemp e Vella-Brodrick (2013), ambas adaptadas à população portuguesa.
Os resultados obtidos permitiram confirmar parcialmente a hipótese formulada, demonstrando que a Sobrequalificação prediz comportamentos de job crafting, nomeadamente comportamentos relacionados com as tarefas e com as relações no local de trabalho.
The main objective of the present investigation is to understand if the perception of overqualification predicts task crafting, cognitive crafting and relational crafting, in order to add knowledge to the existing literature of both constructs. As such, the following hypothesis was constructed: When workers feel more overqualified, they tend to develop more job crafting behaviors. The study included 271 participants, aged between 18 and 61 years old, selected from the Portuguese population with different academic qualifications and working in professional positions. Two instruments were used to measure the variables: the “Perceived Overqualification” (POQ) scale developed by Johnson, Morrow & Johnson (2002) and the "The Job Crafting Questionnaire" (JCQ) scale developed by Slemp & Vella-Brodrick (2013), both adapted to the Portuguese population. The results obtained allowed to partially confirm the hypothesis formulated, demonstrating that the Overqualification predicts job crafting behaviours, namely behaviours related to the tasks and to the relationships in the workplace.
