碩士 / 崑山科技大學 / 企業管理研究所 / 104 / Working holiday provides an opportunity of oversea travel for young people that leads individual growth and ability promotion, and seeks to promote interaction, exchanges, culture experience and mutual understanding between Taiwan and other countries. Recently, many countries signed the working holiday agreement with Taiwan government, and an investigation showed that the number of participants in overseas working holiday had a double growth within two years. It reveals that working holiday is highly attractive to young people, and the number of participants has increased steadily.
Prior studies aimed at oversea expatriation of enterprise had investigated the influence of personality traits, achievement motivation and oversea adaptation on job satisfaction, and found positively correlation among these factors. But, only few studies apply the findings to explore the impact of working holiday participants’ job satisfaction by using a simple model. Furthermore, empirical research from the holistic perspective was extremely sparse on the topic of working holiday participants’ job satisfaction. To fill this gap, this study proposed a theoretical model focused on working holiday participants, and then empirically investigated and examined the Impact of working holiday participant’s personality traits, achievement motivation and oversea adaptation on job satisfaction
A survey was designed and used to collect 150 usable responses from working holiday participants. Factor analysis was executed, and the relationship among constructs was then examined by regression analysis. The results of this study verified that working holiday participant’s personality traits and achievement motivation were positively and significantly associated with both oversea adaptation and job satisfaction, and oversea adaptation also had a significant positive impact on the job satisfaction. Finally, the implications, and suggestions for future research and practice were discussed in this study.
