  Exploring the necessary roles of basic psychological needs at work: A necessary condition analysis
  Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, 98(1). Doi: 10.1111/joop.70012
  Show summary

  Self-determination theory (SDT) postulates that all humans have basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. SDT scholars employ a necessity logic to define and interpret the roles of psychological need satisfaction for optimal human development. However, traditional regression techniques, often applied to test hypotheses derived from SDT, are unsuitable for testing necessity statements. To achieve a theory-method alignment, we employed necessary condition analysis (NCA) to examine whether basic psychological needs at work are necessary for employees' intrinsic motivation, identified regulation, life satisfaction, and vigour at work. Study 1's cross-sectional data (N = 550; Germany) and Study 2's time-lagged data (N = 417; UK and US) generally support the necessary roles of need satisfaction. Notably, intrinsic motivation and vigour are especially constrained by basic psychological need satisfaction. This research advances SDT by providing more precise accounts of the theory from a necessity-oriented lens. We also highlight the importance of management practices that can satisfy employees' basic psychological needs at work.

  Personality correlates of the five hindrances: a pilot study
  Mental Health, Religion & Culture. Doi: 10.1080/13674676.2024.2440487
  Show summary

  Buddhist teachings describe five hindrances to meditation and personal development: Sensory Desire, Ill-Will, Sloth and Torpor, Restlessness and Worry, and Sceptical Doubt. We developed a new 25-item measure for these hindrances and examined their relationships with demographics and personality traits. A sample of 263 adults completed the measure, a six-factor personality assessment, and provided demographic information. The hindrances demonstrated satisfactory internal reliability, but results showed only modest support for the measure's factor structure. Our analyses revealed minimal gender differences and no significant educational effects, but suggested that older participants were less affected by the hindrances. The personality factors showed a strong correlation with the hindrances, particularly in the domains of Adjustment and Risk Approach (Courage), where all relationships were negatively correlated. While the new scale offers practitioners insights into mental states affecting mindfulness, further refinement is needed. This pilot study encourages continued research into these hindrances and their broader implications.

  The Future of Work: A Research Agenda
  Journal of Management. Doi: 10.1177/01492063251320025
  Show summary

  In this commentary, we discuss and define the ‘future of work’ as a phenomenon and research area, and outline avenues for further research at the conceptual and empirical level. We first offer a brief review of the different streams of research that study the future of work, both in management and organization studies and in adjacent fields. We then elaborate on what we see as the most promising avenues for research on the future of work, organized around five questions of what, when, who, how, and why. That is, research on the future of work needs to clarify its assumptions about (1) the phenomena it considers within scope; (2) the temporality associated with these phenomena; (3) which future of work actors it is about, and who it is for; (4) the methods and data types used to be able to study the future empirically; and (5) desired impact and envisioned outcomes. We discuss how moving beyond technodeterminism, depoliticization, and a present-day focus could open up new and important avenues for further research on the near and distant future of work. We conclude with some specific examples of research questions and methods.
