• Relationships between psychological, physical, and behavioural health and work performance: A review and meta-analysis (2011, background): “We would expect that these motivation-related constructs are important for both task (eg, Van Eerde & Thierry, 1996 ) and contextual (eg, Jawahar, Meurs, Ferris, & Hochwarter, 2008 ) performance.”
• The prediction of task and contextual performance by political skill: A meta-analysis and moderator test☆ (2011, background): “In fact, in two studies, Jawahar et al. (2008) found political skill to have stronger relationships with contextual performance than with task performance.”
• A different look at why selection procedures work (2011, background): “…differences in self-reported social effectiveness are relevant for performance in selection procedures as well as on the job (e.g., Bachman et al., 2000; Hochwarter et al., 2006; Jawahar et al., 2008), and may thus contribute to the criterionrelated validity of these selection procedures.”
• Examining occupational self-efficacy, work locus of control and communication as moderators of the job insecurity—job performance relationship (2010, result): “…work locus of control and perceived communication on the one side and self-rated performance on the other, our results are in line with previous research findings (see e.g. MA Evans, 1999, for communication; Jawahar et al., 2008, for self-efficacy; Judge and Bono, 2001, for locus of control).”
• Perceived organizational politics, emotional intelligence and work outcomes: Empirical exploration of direct and indirect effects (2014, background): “More recent studies have focused on exploring the effects of political skill on career success, job effectiveness, and work performance (Blickle, Ferris, Munyon, Momm, Zettler, Schneider, Buckley, 2011; Blickle and Schnitzler, 2010; Blickle, von Below and Johannen, 2011; Ferris et al., 2008; Jawahar”
• The mediating role of burnout on the relationship of emotional intelligence and self-efficacy with OCB and performance (2015, background): “an estimate of one’s ability to deal with a situation) and a motivational component, or willingness to expend effort consistent with ability (Jawahar et al., 2008).”
