Purpose

The purpose of this study is to validate the Korean version of the thriving at work measurement by Porath et al. (2012).

Design/methodology/approach

After translating the thriving at work measurement into Korean, the researchers assessed the validity and reliability of the measurement in a Korean working context using two different samples. In Study 1, the study validated the translated measurement using Rasch’s (1960) model, exploratory factor analysis and a reliability test with a sample of 322 employees. In Study 2, the study conducted a confirmatory factor analysis, a reliability test and a convergent and discriminant validity test using a sample of 187 employees.

Findings

Based on the analyses, this paper concluded that thriving at work has a two-factor construct and eight-item thriving at work measurement was better than the original 10-item measurement. The eight-item measurement demonstrated good discriminant and convergent validity.

Originality/value

This study validated the thriving at work measurement in a Korean context using Rasch’s (1960) model from the item response theory perspective.

韩语版工作欣欣向荣量表的验证研究

目的

本研究的目的是验证韩文版 Porath等人的工作蓬勃发展衡量标准。(2012)。

设计/方法/方法

在将工作中的繁荣测量翻译成韩语后，研究人员使用两个不同的样本评估了该测量在韩国工作环境中的有效性和可靠性。在研究 1 中，该研究使用 Rasch (1960) 模型、探索性因素分析和 322 名员工样本的可靠性测试验证了翻译测量。在研究 2 中，该研究使用 187 名员工的样本进行了验证性因素分析、信度检验以及收敛和区分效度检验。

发现

基于这些分析，本文得出结论，工作中的欣欣向荣有一个双因素结构，八项工作中的欣欣向荣测量优于最初的 10 项测量。八项测量表现出良好的区分效度和收敛效度。

原创性/价值

本研究使用 Rasch (1960) 模型从项目反应理论的角度验证了韩国语境中工作兴旺的衡量标准。
