Job Satisfaction and Turnover Intentions during Technology Transition: The Role of User Involvement, Core Self-Evaluations, and Computer Self-Efficacy

Using data from 52 employees, this study investigated the relations among user involvement, core selfe-valuations, computer self-efficacy, employee stress, job satisfaction, and intention to leave the organization during the implementation of a new barcode scanning system. The results revealed that core self-evaluations and user involvement were positively related to computer self-efficacy. In addition, core self-evaluations was negatively related to job stress, but user involvement was not. The results further showed that job stress was negatively related to job satisfaction. Finally, job stress and job satisfaction were each negatively related to intentions to leave the organization. Implications for theory and managers are discussed.
