Comparison of the model used in [12] and this study’s enhanced model, representing control, independent (IV) and dependent variables (DV).
Arrows indicate that a construct (arrowhead) is being regressed onto another construct (arrow start). a) corresponds to Fig 1 in [12]; used with author’s permission, and format slightly adapted for better comparability]. b) corresponds to the model used in this study. For better readability, the curly bracket substitutes the arrows going from each control variable and IV to each DV. Those IVs and DVs which enhance the model represented by a) are highlighted as a square (and orange) compared to the ovals used in a).
Table 1.
Means and standard deviations of the independent variables—The factors of the motivation constructs “Motivation to become an Astronomer” (M1), “Drivers to Publish” (M2) & “Feelings when failing to Publish” (M3)—And dependent variables—Turnover intentions & love for job.
Table 2.
Regression models of DV = M2F1 & M2F2 (both N = 1361); regressed onto the control variables.
Table 3.
Regression models of DV = M3F1 (N = 1305), M3F2 (N = 1294) & M3F3 (N = 1265); regressed onto the control variables.
Table 4.
Regression model of DV = Turnover intentions of astronomers who are primarily employed at an academic institution (N = 1147) versus at a non-academic (N = 224) institution; regressed onto the seven motivational factors and the control variables.
Table 5.
Regression model of DV = Love for Job; regressed onto the seven motivational factors and the control variables.
Table 6.
Regression model of DV = Perceived Publication Pressure; regressed onto the seven motivational factors and the control variables.
Table 7.
Regression models of DV = Distributive Justice in terms of Reward & Effort; regressed onto the seven motivational factors, perceived publication pressure, and the control variables.
Table 8.
Regression models of DV = Overcommitment.
Model 1: DV is regressed onto the seven motivational factors, perceived publication pressure, distributive & organizational justice, and the control variables. Model 2: DV is regressed onto the seven motivational factors and the control variables.
Table 9.
Regression models of DV = perception of frequency of misbehaviour occurrence.
Model 1: DV is regressed onto the seven motivational factors, perceived publication pressure, distributive justice & organizational, overcommitment, and the control variables. Model 2: DV is regressed onto the seven motivational factors and the control variables.
