Özet

This research examines the mediating role of general attitudes towards artificial intelligence in the effect of employees' levels of thriving at work (a personal resource) on their psychological well-being, within the framework of the Job Demands and Resources (JDR) theory. The limited number of studies in the literature that integrate attitudes towards self-development, work psychology, and artificial intelligence based on the Job Demands and Resources theory constitute the basis for this research. A quantitative research approach was adopted in the study; data obtained from 399 healthcare workers using a convenience sampling method and a two-stage data collection process were analysed using the PROCESS Macro (Model 4). The findings show that employees' levels of thriving at work increase their attitudes towards artificial intelligence and that these attitudes positively influence their psychological well-being. Consequently, this research adds a technology-based perspective to the Job Demands and Resources theory and offers important insights for organisations to develop employee-focused technology integration and human resources strategies.

Abstract

This research examines the mediating role of general attitudes towards artificial intelligence in the effect of employees' levels of thriving at work (a personal resource) on their psychological well-being, within the framework of the Job Demands and Resources (JDR) theory. The limited number of studies in the literature that integrate attitudes towards self-development, work psychology, and artificial intelligence based on the Job Demands and Resources theory constitute the basis for this research. A quantitative research approach was adopted in the study; data obtained from 399 healthcare workers using a convenience sampling method and a two-stage data collection process were analysed using the PROCESS Macro (Model 4). The findings show that employees' levels of thriving at work increase their attitudes towards artificial intelligence and that these attitudes positively influence their psychological well-being. Consequently, this research adds a technology-based perspective to the Job Demands and Resources theory and offers important insights for organisations to develop employee-focused technology integration and human resources strategies.
