Perceived Overqualification and Job Crafting: The Curvilinear Moderation of Career Adaptability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the positive and nonlinear influence of perceived overqualification on job crafting and the moderating effect of career adaptability on these functions and found that an appropriate level of POQ can drive job crafting, leading to performance improvements in organizations and individuals.

Abstract: Developments in direct and indirect educational systems have increased the number of individuals with competencies that are higher than the required expectations of their current jobs. This concept of overqualification is drawing interest today, while underqualification was the focus in the past. Currently, research on perceived overqualification (POQ) has focused on its negative influences; however, this study aimed to explore the positive and nonlinear influence of POQ on job crafting and the moderating effect of career adaptability on these functions. Data were collected from 257 individuals in three Korean telecom companies. The results of hierarchical regression analysis indicate that POQ had a reverse U-shaped nonlinear influence on job crafting, indicating that an appropriate level of POQ can drive job crafting, leading to performance improvements in organizations and individuals. Moreover, career adaptability moderated the relationship between POQ and job crafting. When career adaptability was at an average or high level, the reverse U-shaped nonlinear influence of POQ on job crafting strengthened. These results are expected to assist in creating both an environment to reduce the negative influence of POQ and healthy sustainability in human resources development.

Job Crafting: A Challenge to Promote Decent Work for Vulnerable Workers
TL;DR: In this paper, a perspective article on job crafting as a promising way to shape decent work for marginalized workers is presented, starting with the definition of decent work according to the psychology of working theory (PWT) and examining the evolution of the construct of job crafting.
How Perceived Overqualification Affects Task Performance and Proactive Behavior: The Role of Digital Competencies and Job Crafting
Abstract: ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of perceived overqualification on both task performance and proactive behavior via job crafting under the moderation of digital competencies. Hypotheses of the proposed model were tested with a sample of 409 participants in 40 five-star hotels in Turkey. Data were collected by interviewing face-to-face and analyzed using structural equation modeling. It is found that job crafting mediated the relationship between perceived overqualification on both task performance and proactive behavior. The positive effect of perceived overqualification on job crafting was greater under digital competencies, as was the indirect effect of perceived overqualification on both “task performance” and “proactive behavior” via job crafting.

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory.
TL;DR: In this paper, a model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs, focusing on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motivated work behavior to develop; (b) the characteristics of jobs that can create these psychological states; and (c) the attributes of individuals that determine how positively a person will respond to a complex and challenging job.
