Abstract:
In this thesis existing theory is extended by combining work engagement and flow research to generate the concept of task engagement, which focuses on episodes of peak performance at work. Using a critical incident methodology in Study 1, task engagement was found to have three key characteristics (i.e., distortion of time; complete absorption in the task; and is a state of high cognitive efficiency). Both situational (i.e., high challenge/high skills, control, and proximal feedback) and psychological antecedents (i.e., safety, availability, meaning and self-efficacy) were also identified. In

Abstract:
There is a new trend in organizational psychology to address the transient nature of constructs through intra-individual studies. This approach is mostly used to understand phenomena which are highly sensitive to changes in the environment and to internal states in workers, such as the intra-individual variation in well-being related concepts such as cognition, affect and motivational states. Traditionally the concept of work engagement has been considered and studied as a relatively stable-in-time concept, a great portion of research has been carried out with transactional designs and with se

Abstract:
The global shortage of registered nursing practitioners is widely reported in the literature. This shortage can be attributed to a decrease in enrolments for nursing studies, fewer students graduating from nursing education programmes, more nurses leaving the profession shortly after completion of their studies, and other factors. Burnout amongst registered nurses may contribute to the above and can also serve as an indication of the reason these shortages in the nursing profession occur. The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) is also affected by the shortage of registered nurses. Th

There is no sense in engaging employees if management is not going to invest in the effort of placing these employees in appropriate roles and supporting them to be engaged in their work. There are generalised states that employees occupy: people are to some degree job involved, committed to organisations, or alienated at work in the form of self-estrangement. These concepts suggest that employees can use varying degrees of themsel

Abstract:
South African nurses are emigrating for greater prospects abroad – a weakening of the healthcare system. Nurses play a critical role in health care globally as well as in South Africa. Work engagement or lack thereof may be the reason why so many nurses decide to emigrate. This study aimed to get a better understanding of whether nurses working more specifically with mentally and physically challenged ‘children’ experience work engagement.

Abstract:
The relationship between personality and work engagement and work engagement and demographic variables is investigated. The Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator (RHETI) was used to measure personality and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) was used to measure work engagement. In contrast to the literature findings, no significant relations were found between personality and work engagement. An increased sample size per personality type or triad may yield different results. Furthermore, the RHETI operationalising of personality differs from previous research.
