Project‐based forms of work have been steadily increasing in all sorts of organizations, which has led scholars to investigate their effects on career development and career management practices. However, disciplinary and conceptual divides have prevented comprehensive conceptualizations of project workers' careers to emerge to this day. Building o...

Het bestaan van bullshit jobs fascineert en choqueert tegelijkertijd. Vooral naar aanleiding van het boek Bullshit jobs van David Graeber (2018) is het debat rondom het fenomeen vandaag de dag levendig. Op basis van bestaand empirisch materiaal willen we in dit artikel een bijdrage aan dit debat leveren. We hanteren drie indicatoren van bullshit jo...

Research has shown the importance of engaging in networking behaviors for employees’ career success. Networking behaviors can be seen as a proactive way of creating access to career-related social resources and we argue that this type of proactive career behaviors might be particularly relevant for freelancers who cannot depend on an organizational...

In this study, we examine employees' perceptions of their work ability from a sustainable career perspective. Specifically, we investigate the role of a person's perceived current fit (i.e., autonomy, strengths use and needs-supply fit), and future fit with their job as resources that affect perceived work ability, defined as the extent to which em...

Werk heeft belangrijke zingevende functies en heeft daardoor een potentieel positief effect op het leven van mensen: het biedt idealiter een inkomen, het zorgt voor sociaal contact, het geeft meer zin en regelmaat aan het leven en het draagt potentieel bij aan iemands eigenwaarde en welzijnsgevoel. Of en waarom mensen hun werk als zinvol ervaren, i...

We tested a model specifying associations between (1) indicators of revitalized social dialogue, (2) perceived cooperation within the industrial relations...

De nexus tussen wetenschap en praktijk is vandaag druk besproken binnen de HR- en ruimere management community. Met termen als ‘evidence based HR’, ‘HR-analytics’, ‘predictive HR’, ‘data driven HR’ wordt duidelijk dat de peoplemanagement-praktijk fundering behoeft vanuit het empirisch onderzoek. De emo behoeft ratio. Althans, zo lijkt het. Verwach...

Segmentation of a visual scene in “figure” and “ground” is essential for perception of the three-dimensional layout of a scene. In cases of bi-stable perception, two distinct figure–ground interpretations alternate over time. We were interested in the temporal dynamics of these alternations, in particular when the same image is presented repeatedly...

Background / Purpose: We recently developed a neuro-computational model (2) which can reproduce bi-stable depth-order perception by implementing an adaptation process and its recovery in the feedback system between the border-ownership (BOWN) and the depth-order computations. The model predicts that a prolongation of the alternation can be observ...
