Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have suggested that self-efficacy and feedback-seeking behavior (FSB) are effective in enhancing performance. To improve performance in the workplace, research should focus on how psychologists can enhance these constructs in employees. Though locus of control (LOC) relates to self-efficacy and increased FSB, research has revealed issues in LOC (e.g., failure to predict performance, range restriction, failure to predict behaviors). The current study examined the effects of perceived "lack of control", learned helplessness, over LOC on both self-efficacy and FSB in two different samples: a student sample (N = 321) and a work sample (N = 794). Learned helplessness accounted for unique variance over LOC in self-efficacy and FSB and accounted for all variance LOC accounted for in self-efficacy. LOC did not moderate relationships between learned helplessness and self-efficacy but did moderate relationships between learned helplessness and FSB. Predicted moderation effects were more complicated than expected as I observed moderation effects that differed from the pattern of effects I predicted in both Study 1 and Study 2. Although my hypotheses were not all supported, my results highlighted several issues and future directions relevant to motivational research, including large conceptual overlap between learned helplessness and LOC and how different levels of LOC affected relationships between learned helplessness and FSB differently at low versus high levels of learned helplessness.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employees are facing personal traumas, higher stress, and work pressures that are likely to result in both short- and long-term impacts. To mitigate these negative impacts, organizations should focus on applying research related to employees' responses to trauma and stress. Learned helplessness, which is well-established within clinical psychology and less established within the industrial-organizational literature, occurs as a direct response to perceived control over trauma and could thus relate to the ability to overcome trauma. In relation to control-related constructs, industrial-organizational researchers have focused on resilience, hardiness, and work locus of control (LOC). However, each of these constructs account for content outside of the domain of control, making it difficult for researchers to assess effects on work outcomes specific to control. The current study examined the effects of learned helplessness over resilience, hardiness, and work LOC in organizational contexts. Learned helplessness correlated with most performance, affect, motivation, personality, and job characteristic constructs. Additionally, learned helplessness accounted for unique variance over resilience, hardiness, and work LOC in many motivation, personality, and job characteristic constructs. My results highlighted several issues and future directions relevant to motivational research, including the conceptual overlap of learned helplessness, resilience, hardiness, and work LOC; the level of focus of items and correspondence of predictor and outcome specificity; and predictors of learned helplessness in work settings.

Download or read book Learned Helplessness written by Christopher Peterson and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When experience with uncontrollable events gives rise to the expectation that events in the future will also elude control, disruptions in motivation, emotion, and learning may ensue. "Learned helplessness" refers to the problems that arise in the wake of uncontrollability. First described in the 1960s among laboratory animals, learned helplessness has since been applied to a variety of human problems entailing inappropriate passivity and demoralization. While learned helplessness is best known as an explanation of depression, studies with both people and animals have mapped out the cognitive and biological aspects. The present volume, written by some of the most widely recognized leaders in the field, summarizes and integrates the theory, research, and application of learned helplessness. Each line of work is evaluated critically in terms of what is and is not known, and future directions are sketched. More generally, psychiatrists and psychologists in various specialties will be interested in the book's argument that a theory emphasizing personal control is of particular interest in the here and now, as individuality and control are such salient cultural topics.
