Publikation Technological self-efficacy and occupational mobility intentions in the face of technological advancement: a moderated mediation model(Routledge, 03.04.2023) Medici, Guri; Grote, Gudela; Igic, Ivana; Hirschi, Andreas01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Profiling “Occupational Changers”: A Longitudinal Study(Academy of Management, 06.07.2022) Igic, Ivana; Hirschi, Andreas; Dlouhy, Katja; Medici, Guri; Grote, Gudela04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Facing change with stability: The dynamics of occupational career trajectories(SAGE, 14.10.2022) Medici, Guri; Igic, Ivana; Grote, Gudela; Hirschi, AndreasIn today’s dynamic work environments, individuals must manage their careers. Although research suggests that many individuals change jobs and organizations more frequently, they often pursue their careers within one occupation still. The current study addresses how such seemingly stable careers unfold in the face of societal, economic, and technological changes and explores the proactive and reactive strategies individuals use to sustain occupational stability throughout their careers. Applying qualitative content analysis to 32 semi-structured interviews, we revealed eight major strategies underlying the process of occupational stability maintenance. We discuss the identified strategies using control theory and job crafting as theoretical lenses and introduce the concept of occupational crafting for understanding stability maintenance in vocational careers. The study highlights occupations as meaningful reference points in contemporary careers and illustrates how proactive and reactive strategies lead to occupational stability.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Technological self-efficacy and occupational mobility intentions in the face of technological advancement: A moderated mediation model(07/2022) Medici, Guri; Grote, Gudela; Igic, Ivana; Hirschi, Andreas06 - PräsentationPublikation Grass roots of occupational change: Understanding mobility in vocational careers(Elsevier, 2020) Medici, Guri; Tschopp, Cécile; Grote, Gudela; Hirschi, AndreasMost prior research on career mobility has focused on people changing jobs and organizations. We know little about processes involved in individuals changing occupations, although these changes cause high individual, organizational, and public costs. Moreover, occupations are increasingly acknowledged as important anchors in times of more boundaryless careers. The current study investigates the impact of early satisfaction with the trained occupation (VET satisfaction) on occupational change by analyzing 10-year longitudinal panel data gathered in Switzerland (N = 905). Results from regression analyses showed that VET satisfaction predicted occupational change up to ten years after graduation. VET satisfaction in turn was affected by work characteristics experienced during VET, and VET satisfaction mediated the relationship between work characteristics during VET and occupational change. Using a subsample (N = 464) for which data were available on jobs taken up after graduation, we showed that VET satisfaction explained occupational change over and above work satisfaction in jobs held after graduation, highlighting the formative role of early experience during VET. Our findings inform both theory and practice. To fully comprehend occupational change, established turnover models also need to reflect on early formative vocational experiences. Firms should pay attention to favorable work characteristics already during VET and adjust adverse conditions to reduce undesired occupational mobility.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Occupational mobility in the work of the future: Investigating the impact of technological self-efficacy and automation potential on occupational mobility intentions(13.09.2022) Medici, Guri; Grote, Gudela; Igic, Ivana; Hirschi, Andreas06 - PräsentationPublikation Training in Immersive Virtual Reality: A Short Review of Presumptions and the Contextual Interference Effect(Springer, 03.04.2020) Christ, Oliver; Ziegler, Cyrill; Hirschi, Andreas; Genovese, Rosina; Papageorgiou, Andreas; Ahram, Tareq; Taiar, Redha; Gremeaux-Bader, Vincent; Aminian, KamiarThe increase of shipped consumer immersive virtual reality (IVR) up to 6 million units in 2019 shows the increasing popularity of this medium. Invests of 8 billion dollars are anticipated in the next five years for the training sector. With the development the question arise, what effects and advantages can be expected using IVR in human training? This paper reviews three important areas, when it comes to the design of immersive virtual reality trainings: 1. cognitive load, 2. spatial imagination and the contextual interference effect.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Career adaptivity, adaptability, and adapting: a conceptual and empirical investigation(Elsevier, 04/2015) Herrmann, Anne; Hirschi, Andreas; Keller, AnitaThe literature on career adaptation is vast and based on a range of different measurement approaches. The present paper aims to explore how different operationalizations of career adaptability in terms of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence are related from a conceptual and empirical standpoint. Based on a cross-sectional analysis with 1260 German university students, we established that the adaptability resources of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence are significantly related to, but empirically distinct from, measures representing adapting in terms of career planning, career decision-making difficulties, career exploration, and occupational selfefficacy. In a follow-up survey six months later, we found that the career adaptability dimensions partially mediated the effects of adaptivity (i.e., core self-evaluations and proactivity) on planning, decision-making difficulties, exploration, and self-efficacy. Interestingly, in both analyses, there was no clear match between adaptability resources and theoretically corresponding aspects of career adapting in terms of behaviors, beliefs, and barriers. The results suggest that psychological career resources in terms of concern, control, curiosity, and confidence partially mediate the effects of more context-general, trait-like adaptivity on different career-specific behavioral forms of adapting.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Assessing difficulties in career decision making among Swiss adolescents with the German My Vocational Situation Scale(Hogrefe, 2013) Hirschi, Andreas; Herrmann, AnneAssessing problems in career decision making among adolescents is important for career guidance and research. The present study is the first to investigate among Swiss adolescents the factor structure and convergent validity in relation to personality of the German-language adaptation of the My Vocational Situation Scale. Two preliminary studies (N = 217) suggested that using a 5-point Likert scale response format would increase scale reliability. The confirmatory factor analyses in the main study with two cohorts (n = 341, eighth grade; n = 303, eleventh grade) confirmed that four main factors, which assess problems with identity, decision making, information, and perceived barriers, underlie the data. The barriers factor was differentiated into aspired vocation and personal situation. Construct validity was supported by significant relationships between favorable personality characteristics (emotional stability, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, generalized self-efficacy, and internal locus of control) and fewer problems. The results suggest that the vocational identity and barriers scales can be fruitfully applied to research on and the practice of career counseling with adolescents.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Calling and career preparation: investigating developmental patterns and temporal precedence(Elsevier, 13.03.2013) Hirschi, Andreas; Herrmann, AnneThe presence of a calling and career development are assumed to be closely related. However, the nature of and reason for this relationship have not been thoroughly investigated. We hypothesized the existence of reciprocal effects between calling and three dimensions of career preparation and assessed the change of the presence of a calling, career planning, decidedness, and self-efficacy with three waves of a diverse sample of German university students (N = 846) over one year. Latent growth analyses revealed that the intercepts of calling showed a significant positive correlation with the intercepts of all career preparation measures. The slope of calling was positively related to those of decidedness and self-efficacy but not to planning. Cross-lagged analyses showed that calling predicted a subsequent increase in planning and self-efficacy. Planning and decidedness predicted an increase in the presence of a calling. The results suggest that calling and career preparation are related due to mutual effects but that effects differ for different career preparation dimensions.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher Zeitschrift
