The construct of job crafting is gaining increasing attention in the research and practice of work psychology in light of the positive effects it has on workers and the organizational context. On this basis, the present study aimed to explore the associations between the Big Five personality traits and job crafting (and its subdimensions, individual job crafting and collaborative job crafting), as well as investigating the role of insight in mediating these relationships. A sample of 159 Italian workers took part in the study and completed the self-report measures. Results showed a positive association between extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness and job crafting (total), individual job crafting, and collaborative job crafting, with significant mediations of insight orientation. Openness was positively associated with job crafting (total) and individual job crafting, but not with the collaborative subdimension, with insight orientation that mediated existing relationships. Emotional stability and job crafting (total) or its subdimensions were found to have no significant relationships. These findings suggest that insight orientation could represent a promising resource for job crafting, both in terms of primary prevention, strength-based prevention, and healthy organizations.
工作重塑的构建在工作心理学的研究和实践中越来越受到关注，因为它对工人和组织环境都有积极的影响。基于此，本研究旨在探讨大五人格特质与工作重塑（及其子维度，个体工作重塑和协作工作重塑）之间的关系，并探讨洞察力在其中的中介作用。159 名意大利工人参与了这项研究，并完成了自我报告的测量。结果表明，外向性、宜人性和尽责性与工作重塑（总体）、个体工作重塑和协作工作重塑呈正相关，洞察力取向存在显著的中介作用。开放性与工作重塑（总体）和个体工作重塑呈正相关，但与协作子维度不相关，洞察力取向存在中介作用。情绪稳定性与工作重塑（总体）或其子维度之间没有显著关系。这些发现表明，洞察力取向可能是工作重塑的一个有前途的资源，无论是在初级预防、基于优势的预防还是健康组织方面。
