Description
Résumé:This study examined the influence of six dimensions of well-being, which are psychological well-being, emotional well-being, social welt-being, physical well-being, spiritual well-being and intellectual well-being as well as affective commitment on job performance among academicians in Malaysia higher educational institutions. Job performance was measured by integrating task performance and contextual performance. A total of 291 Universiti Utara Malaysia academicians participated in this study. Regression analysis was performed to test the research hypotheses. The results of this findings revealed that five dimensions of well-being (i.e. psychological, emotional, social, physical and intellectual) have a significant and positive influence on job performance. Similarly, affective commitment was found to have a significant and positive influence on job performance. However, spiritual well-being had not impacted job performance significantly. Discussions elaborated on the research findings. Additionally, this study also discussed theoretical and practical implications, limitations of the study, directions for future research, and conclusion.
