Overview

Randomized trial shows the role of career wisdom in enhancing well-being through work meaningfulness.

Key Points

  • The study aims to explore how career wisdom affects well-being through the lens of work meaningfulness.
  • Measured career wisdom at Time 1 and assessed work meaningfulness at Time 2, followed by job satisfaction and work engagement at Time 3.
  • Analyzed relationships between these variables and their mediating effects.
  • Found that work meaningfulness significantly mediates the effect of career wisdom on job satisfaction and work engagement at Time 3.
  • The mediating effect on life satisfaction was smaller than on job satisfaction.
