Poor work design begets poor work design: Capacity and willingness antecedents of individual work design behavior KU Leuven
Few studies have systematically considered how individuals design work. In a replication study (N = 211, Study 1), we showed that students naturally tend to develop simplified, low variety work.

We frame this development from a theoretical perspective by introducing the ...
