Abstract

To explore the influence factor and the internal mechanism of the thriving at work among new military civilian, a total of 513 military civilian were investigated by the proactive personality scale, the perceived organizational support scale and the thriving at work scale. The results of correlation analysis shows that, the proactive personality was significantly positively correlated with the thriving at work (r=0.40, p<0.01) and the organizational support (r=0.33, p<0.01); the results also shows that the correlation between the perceived organizational support and the thriving at work was significant (r=0.52, p<0.01). In order to examine the effect of the proactive personality on the thriving at work and the effect of the organizational support among military civilian, the results of structural equation model shows that, the proactive personality had a significant positive effect on the thriving at work (β=0.60, p<0.001), and the perceived organizational support played a partly mediation effect between the proactive personality and the thriving at work, and the mediation size was 0.172. This research reveals the influence factors of the thriving at work and the internal mechanism, and it also has some enlightening significance for the education, motivation and management of Military civilian, and it could draw the following conclusions, in order to enhance the thriving at work of military civilian, we can recruit or cultivate the proactive personality and provide necessary organizational support.
