  • Recent studies in work and educational areas have demonstrated that bifactor-ESEM makes it possible to simultaneously obtain a direct estimate of employees' global levels of self-determined work motivation and an equally direct estimate of the unique quality associated with each specific regulation.

    “Recent studies conducted in the work (Fernet et al., 2020;Howard et al., 2018) and educational (Litalien, Morin, Gagné et al., 2017) areas have demonstrated that bifactor exploratory structural equation models (bifactor-ESEM; Morin, Arens, & Marsh, 2016) made it possible to simultaneously obtain a direct estimate of employees' global levels of self-determined work motivation and an equally direct”

  • In these studies, participants' global levels of self-determination tended to be the key component responsible for associations with a variety of covariates.

    “These studies showed that participants' global levels of self-determination tended to be the key component responsible for associations with a variety of covariates, underscoring the importance of considering global levels of self-determination in future research on work motivation.”

  • These studies also supported the additional value of considering the specific regulation factors in prediction.

  • Prior investigations failed to explicitly take into account levels of global self-determination, which have been shown in previous variable-centered studies to represent a much stronger predictor of outcomes than specific motivation factors.

    “However, these prior investigations also failed to explicitly take into account the levels of global self-determination which have been shown, in previous variable-centered studies (Howard et al., 2018;Litalien, Morin, Gagné et al., 2017), to represent a much stronger predictor of outcomes than the specific motivation factors reflecting the unique quality of employees' work motivation beyond their”

  • Recent research shows that levels of global self-determination reflecting the self-determination continuum can co-exist with types of motivation retaining meaningful specificity and explanatory power.

    “Recent research has shown that it was possible for SDT to “have its cake and eat it too” (Howard et al., 2018;Litalien, Morin, Gagné et al., 2017), showing that levels of global selfdetermination reflecting the self-determination continuum were able to co-exist with types of motivation retaining a meaningful level of specificity and explanatory power.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
