• What Do We Really Know About Employee Engagement (2014, background): “…have investigated individual differences, there is some evidence that core self-evaluations, conscientiousness, positive affect, and proactive personality are positively related to engagement (Bledow, Schmitt, Frese, & Kuhnel, 2011; Christian et al., 2011; Rich et al., 2010; Saks & Gruman, 2011).”
• An investigation into the validity of two measures of work engagement (2012, background): “( 2004 ) found that work–role fit (person–job (PJ) fit) was significantly correlated with work engagement, and Saks and Gruman ( 2011 ) found that both PJ and person–organization (PO) fit perceptions were positively correlated with work engagement (see also Avery McKay and Wilson 2007 ).”
• Employee engagement, human resource management practices and competitive advantage (2015, background): “Additionally, given that self-efficacy has been found to be positively related to newcomer adjustment (Saks, 1995) and engagement (Saks and Gruman, 2011), HRM professionals should incorporate selfefficacy training in socialization processes and programs.”
• Navigating Uncharted Waters (2015, background): “Additionally, fit has been conceptualized as a mediator between socialization tactics and newcomer characteristics and more distal outcomes (Carr et al.; Cooper-Thomas et al.; Saks et al.; Saks & Gruman, 2011; Wang et al.).”
