• Does the dark side of a calling exist? Examining potential negative effects (2016, background): “Duffy et al. (2013), for example, found that living a calling fully mediated the perceiving calling–life satisfaction link, and Steger et al. (2010) found that life meaning functioned in the same manner.”
• Measuring the Meaning of Meaningful Work (2012, background): “Calling (Steger et al., 2009) is usually conceptualised in relation to one overall purpose of work, which is to serve some greater good, which then provides meaningfulness.”
• Callings in Career: A Typological Approach to Essential and Optional Components. (2011, methodology): “Previous research with the original scale has shown significant relationships between responses and career decision selfefficacy, intrinsic work motivation, religious commitment, and meaning in life (Dik & Steger, 2008; Duffy & Sedlacek, 2007; Steger et al., 2010).”
• Development and Validation of the Calling and Vocation Questionnaire (CVQ) and Brief Calling Scale (BCS) (2012, methodology): “…a calling tend to be slightly more satisfied with their lives and report higher levels of life meaning (Duffy & Sedlacek, 2010; Steger & Dik, 2009; Steger et al., 2010); these linkages are somewhat stronger when assessed with employed adults (Bunderson & Thompson, 2009; Peterson et al., 2009).”

• Research on calling: What have we learned and where are we going? (2013, background): “Steger et al. (2010) found religiousness to mediate this relation with religious students and found life meaning to mediate this relation with both highly religious and less religious students.”
