Employee intrapreneurship and work engagement: A latent change score approach (2017, background): “A study of Fritz and Sonnentag (2007) showed that day-level work engagement of civil servants positively predicted day-level proactive behavior (i.e. taking charge) in both the same and the consecutive day.”
Intervening to Enhance Proactivity in Organizations: Improving the Present or Changing the Future (2018, background): “Some scholars have argued that proactivity is aimed at addressing current unsatisfactory situations (Fay & Sonnentag, 2002), and studies have shown a positive relationship between stressors and proactive efforts to improve work methods (Fritz & Sonnentag, 2009).”
Good morning, good day: A diary study on positive emotions, hope, and work engagement (2012, background): “Namely, positive emotions build proactivity (Fritz and Sonnentag, 2009), and resources like optimism and self-efficacy have been found to predict work engagement (Tims et al., 2011; Xanthopoulou et al., 2008, 2009a).”
Understanding active psychological states: Embedding engagement in a wider nomological net and closer attention to performance (2011, result): “In support of these theoretical arguments, several studies support the link between positive affect and proactive behaviours, such as initiative and active feedback seeking (eg, Fritz & Sonnentag, 2009 ).”
Four-quadrant investigation of job-related affects and behaviours (2014, background): “…reports as ‘‘positive affect’’ as a whole) were found to be significantly associated with self-reported personal initiative by Den Hartog and Belschak (2007) and Fritz and Sonnentag (2009), and with manager-rated proactive behaviour by Parker, Collins, and Grant (2008) and Tsai et al. (2007).”
(Un)Ethical Behavior and Performance Appraisal: The Role of Affect, Support, and Organizational Justice (2013, background): “Theory suggests that positive affect (PA) stimulates ethical behavior for several reasons (Den Hartog and Belschak 2007; Fritz and Sonnentag 2009; Kaplan et al. 2009).”
Crafting one’s leisure time in response to high job strain (2016, background): “…proactive behaviours not only as trait-like stable concepts but also as state-like concepts (e.g. with fluctuations over days or weeks), we gain insight into the specific situational factors that trigger proactive behaviours over and above stable individual differences (Fritz and Sonnentag, 2009).”
