A Qualitative Study on the Effects of Workplace Status on Individual Innovation Behavior of R&D Personnel
Workplace status has a multi-faceted impact on an organization,but its role is easy to overlook.The research on workplace status in China is in the exploratory stage,and there are few theoretical research results and application cases involving the workplace status of R&D personnel in enterprises,and the workplace status is rarely studied as an antecedent variable.In order to make up for the current research gap,based on the previous research results on workplace status,based on social cognitive theory and resource conservation theory,and focusing on the dynamic and double-sided nature of workplace status,this paper adopts the case qualitative research method and conducts in-depth interviews with 80 R&D personnel from 4 scientific and technological enterprises,and summarizes 39 free nodes and 6 main categories.By establishing the connection between the categories,the mechanism of the workplace status and individual innovation behavior of R&D personnel is clarified.Meanwhile,taking workplace status as antecedent variable,the conceptual model of workplace status and individual innovation behavior is established.The results show that the workplace status of R&D personnel is positively correlated with individual innovation behavior and innovation self-efficacy,and has the characteristics of an inverted"U"-shaped curve;the innovation self-efficacy of R&D personnel has the characteristics of stimulating work passion,there is a positive linear relationship between R&D personnel's innovation self-efficacy and individual innovation behavior,when the workplace status of R&D personnel changes from low to high,the individual's work passion rises along with it,and when the workplace status is high,the work passion no longer rises,but there is no obvious inverted U-shaped curve.Besides,power distance orientation has a borderline moderating effect on innovation self-efficacy,harmonious work passion,and compulsive work passion.
