Standardized estimates of the model in which job characteristics, job crafting, and career competencies mediate the CSE–work engagement relationship.
The first estimate refers to sample 1 (N = 303), the second estimate refers to sample 2 (N = 404). Struc = increasing structural job resources; Soc. = increasing social job resources; Chal. = increasing challenging job demands; Refl = reflective career competencies; Comm. = communicative career competencies; Beh. = behavioral career competencies; Vit = vigor; Ded. = dedication; Abs. = Absorption. ** p < .01, † p < .10.
