This study examined the mediating role of job insecurity in the relationship between core self-evaluations (CSE) and job satisfaction, while also investigating the moderating role of job insecurity in the mediated relationship between CSE and life satisfaction via job satisfaction. Survey data were collected from a sample of 346 full-time employees in Taiwan. We found that job insecurity partially mediated the CSE-job satisfaction relationship. Moreover, we found that job insecurity moderated not only the relationship between CSE and job satisfaction but also the mediated relationship between CSE and life satisfaction via job satisfaction. Specifically, both the CSE-job satisfaction relationship and the CSE-job satisfaction-life satisfaction relationship became stronger when job insecurity was low. Our results emphasize the importance of raising employees' CSE, which is beneficial not only for diminishing their perceptions of job insecurity, but also for boosting their job and life satisfaction. Practical implications and directions for future research are discussed.
本研究考察了工作不安全感在核心自我评价（CSE）与工作满意度关系中的中介作用，同时也探讨了工作不安全感在通过工作满意度介导的CSE与生活满意度关系中的调节作用。通过对台湾346名全职员工的样本收集调查数据。我们发现工作不安全感部分中介了CSE与工作满意度的关系。此外，我们发现工作不安全感不仅调节了CSE与工作满意度的关系，还调节了通过工作满意度介导的CSE与生活满意度的关系。具体而言，当工作不安全感较低时，CSE与工作满意度的关系以及CSE-工作满意度-生活满意度的关系都会更强。我们的研究结果强调了提高员工CSE的重要性，这不仅有利于减少他们对工作不安全感的认知，还能提高他们的工作和生活满意度。文中还讨论了实际意义和未来研究方向。
