The role of different forms of self-esteem (i.e., global vs. domain-specific) at work and their longitudinal changes and associations have yet to be examined.

Abstract

The role of different forms of self-esteem (i.e., global vs. domain-specific) at work and their longitudinal changes and associations have yet to be examined. Our aim is to analyze the pattern of longitudinal changes between global self-esteem (GSE) and organization based self-esteem (OBSE). We used three-wave longitudinal data (N = 1616) of newcomers at the beginning of their career. Results from multivariate latent growth curve models revealed that OBSE and GSE decreased linearly. Their trajectories were positively correlated (rslopes = 0.52), suggesting positive longitudinal associations between changes in both forms of self-esteem. Finally, OBSE and GSE trajectories differently predicted changes in job satisfaction, commitment, work engagement, and burnout. Findings support the importance of simultaneously considering both forms of self-esteem at work.
