The article introduces the Polish adaptation of the Work Regulatory Focus Scale. The authors tested its validity in three studies. Confi rmatory factor analyses vindicated the two-factor solution with a lowcorrelation between promotion and prevention scales and their relatively high reliability (Study 1). We observed the expected differences between dissimilar professions in the levels of regulatory foci (Study 2). Moreover, the tool allowed us to predict participants’ results in a different criterion – creativity (Study 3), by demonstrating that promotion-oriented participants are more original, fl uent and divergent in producing creative ideas than prevention-oriented participants. Implications for the results and the WRF Scale are discussed.

Research shows that goal-relevant objects are rated positively, which results from their functionality towards the aim. In previous studies these objects were always external to the agent. However, relevant knowledge of self is also potentially accessible during goal pursuit, as self-esteem is an indicator of aim’s feasibility. In two experimental studies we tested whether goal activation affects temporal changes in automatic evaluations of personality traits related to the dimensions of agency and communion. We administered affect misattribution procedure where participants rated neutral Chinese hexagrams proceeded by words describing traits (75 ms masked presentation). The list of words comprised agentic (e.g. agile) and communal (e.g. trustworthy) traits. The rating took place twice - before and after introducing a manual task. In the first study, goal activation led to slightly more positive implicit evaluations of agentic and more negative evaluation of communal traits, which is consistent with empirical data on self-perception depending on agentic knowledge rather than communal one. In the second study we showed that goal activation led to changes only for promotion-, but not prevention-oriented individuals, which is explained by motivation strength. The results indicate that valuation of traits changes temporarily along with goal pursuit.

The current study aimed to explore the effect of regulatory Focus – Promotion vs. Prevention – in problem-solving among undergraduate students at The Hashemite University. The hypotheses were that promotion focus students outperform prevention focus students in ill-structured problems but underperform them in well-structured problems, and prevention focus students outperform promotion focus students in well-structured problems but underperform them in ill-structured problems. The participants (n=170) were allocated into four groups according to their mindsets and the problems assigned to them (promotion with ill-structured problems, promotion with well-structured problems, prevention with ill-structured problems, prevention with well-structured problems). After the groups solved all the assigned problems, their work was scored according to Measuring Problem Solving Instrument MPSI. The findings confirmed the hypothesis that the regulatory focus affects how problems are solved.

Zaproponowana przez E. Tory Higginsa teoria ukierunkowań regulacyjnych, rozróżnia dwie odrębne strategie (systemy) samoregulacji: (1) promocyjne i (2) prewencyjne ukierunkowanie regulacyjne. Pierwsza związana jest z koncentracją na ideałach, osiągnięciach, aspiracjach i wzroście, natomiast druga – z koncentracją na powinnościach, zobowiązaniach, odpowiedzialności, ochranianiu i bezpieczeństwie. Artykuł prezentuje najważniejsze tezy teorii oraz wyniki wybranych badań dotyczących znaczenia ukierunkowań regulacyjnych dla procesów poznawczych i decyzyjnych, różnych aspektów realizacji celów, a także dla emocji, formułowania ocen i wartościowania obiektów. Ostatnia część ma charakter dyskusyjny i koncentruje się na ocenie teorii Higginsa, jej związków z innymi modelami samoregulacji oraz miejsca w szerszym kontekście zmiennych osobowościowych i temperamentalnych.

The regulatory focus theory proposed by E. Tory Higgins differentiates between two distinct strategies for self regulation: (1) promotion and (2) prevention regulatory focus. The former is concerned with ideals, advancement, aspirations, accomplishments, and growth, while the latter – with oughts, obligations, responsibility, protection, and safety. The paper presents the main theses of the theory and results of selected studies concerning the role of regulatory focus in cognitive processes and decision making, different aspects of goal achievement, and also in experiencing emotions, assessment making and value judgments. The last part of the paper discusses strong and weak points of the theory as well as its associations with other cognitive models of self-regulation. It is also proposed to put the regulatory foci in a broader context of personality and temperament variables.

Background: Person-organization (P–O) fit is a predictor of job satisfaction, and a misfit is a potential stressor. We aimed to examine the consequences of fit between a person and an organization in terms of goal-pursuit strategies. We tested whether job satisfaction mediates the relationship between regulatory fit and mental health. Material and Methods: Research was conducted in a group of 169 employees. They were asked to fill in questionnaires assessing their chronic work regulatory focus, organizational regulatory focus and job satisfaction. To measure mental well-being we administered the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28). We conducted mediation analysis in regression. Results: The results of the mediation analysis confirmed the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relation between regulatory focus misfit and physical and mental symptoms of distress. Conclusions: The results of this study point to the fact that P–O fit can relate to goal pursuit strategies. It influences not only job satisfaction, but also employees’ health. The conclusions can be applied in the human resources management practices, e.g., it may serve as a useful argument to motivate employers to shape goals and strategies individually by managers, according to employees’ preferences. The results should be interpreted with caution because of non-random sampling. Med Pr 2014;65(5):621–631

Wstęp: Dopasowanie człowieka do organizacji stanowi predyktor satysfakcji z pracy, natomiast niedopasowanie jest potencjalnym stresorem. Problem badawczy dotyczył określenia związku między poziomem dopasowania człowieka do organizacji w zakresie strategii realizacji celów a zdrowiem psychicznym. Założono, że mediatorem tego związku jest satysfakcja z pracy. Materiał i metody: W badaniu wzięło udział 169 pracujących osób. Z wykorzystaniem kwestionariuszy sprawdzano osobowościowe i organizacyjne nastawienie regulacyjne oraz satysfakcję z pracy badanych. Wskaźniki zdrowia psychicznego zmierzono Kwestionariuszem Ogólnego Stanu Zdrowia (General Health Questionnaire – GHQ-28). Zależność zbadano przy pomocy analizy mediacyjnej w modelu regresji. Wyniki: Zgodnie z hipotezami zaobserwowano, że satysfakcja z pracy pośredniczy w związku między niedopasowaniem człowieka do organizacji w zakresie strategii realizacji celów a zdrowiem psychicznym (liczbą symptomów fizycznych, symptomów depresji, niepokoju i bezsenności oraz zaburzeń funkcjonowania). Wnioski: Wyniki badania wskazują na ważną rolę dopasowania do organizacji w zakresie sposobu realizowania celów. Wpływa ono nie tylko na satysfakcję z pracy, ale może również wiązać się ze zdrowiem psychicznym. Przeprowadzone badania potwierdzają zasadność formułowania celów zawodowych i strategii ich realizacji w sposób bardziej indywidualny i dostosowany do preferencji pracowników. Przy interpretacji wyników należy zachować ostrożność ze względu na nielosowo dobraną próbę badanych. Med. Pr. 2014;65(5):621–631
