The Mechanism of How Job Crafting and Home Crafting Influence Proactive Behavior

Abstract

Abstract: Based on the proactive motivation model and spillover theory, this study explores the effects of daily job crafting and home crafting on the next day's proactive behavior, and analyzes the mediating roles of work-family and family-work facility, as well as the moderating role of perceived organizational support and perceived family support. A five-day daily study of 93 employees finds that both daily job crafting and home crafting have a significant positive influence on the next day's proactive behavior, work-family facility and family-work facility play a partial mediating role in the two relationship respectively, and perceived organizational support positively moderates the main effect between daily job crafting and next day's proactive behavior, perceived family support positively moderates the main effect between daily home crafting and next day's proactive behavior. The conclusion of this study provides relevant theoretical reference and management enlightenment for stimulating employees' proactive behavior.

Key words: job crafting, home crafting, work family facility, proactive behavior, perceived social support
