Students' engagement in their studies during their time at university is a fundamental building block of a high-quality learning experience. In this paper, we investigate learning goal orientation as a predictor of student engagement in the context of higher education. Moreover, we examine whether the perception of feeling envied mediates this effect and investigate the moderating effect of ethical climate in this regard. The proposed moderated mediation model was tested on a sample of 230 business students. Results reveal that learning goal orientation is positively related with study engagement and that feeling envied mediates this relationship. We also affirm the moderating role of ethical climate in the relationship between learning goal orientation and study engagement. Specifically, in schools where the climate is perceived to be more ethical, student engagement is higher, regardless of how envied students feel. The paper concludes with a list of practical implications that may serve educators in their attempts to create conditions that foster students' engagement in class., Uključenost studenata na studiju predstavlja temeljni element visokokvalitetnog iskustva učenja. U ovom radu istražujemo ciljnu orijentaciju na učenje kao prediktor studentske uključenosti u kontekstu visokog obrazovanja. Nadalje, u radu istražujemo i medijacijski utjecaj percepcije osjećaja zavisti te moderatorski utjecaj etičke klime na odnos ciljne orijentacije na učenje i studentske uključenosti. Predloženi moderatorsko-medijacijski model testiran je na uzorku od 230 studenata. Rezultati otkrivaju da je ciljna orijentacija na učenje pozitivno povezana s uključenosti i da je osjećaj zavisti medijator u ovom odnosu. Potvrđujemo i moderatorski učinak etičke klime u odnosu između ciljne orijentacije na učenje i uključenosti na studiju. Preciznije, u visokoobrazovnim ustanovama, u kojima se klima percipira kao etičnija, uključenost studenta je veća, neovisno o osjećaju zavisti. Rad zaključujemo popisom praktičnih implikacija koje bi mogle poslužiti nastavnicima u njihovim pokušajima da stvore uvjete koji potiču uključenost studenata u nastavi.

Purpose – The purpose of this research is to better understand the human aspects of open innovation in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by exploring how intrinsic and extrinsic motivation influence enjoyment in helping others, knowledge sharing and knowledge hiding and consequently firms’ open innovation. Design/methodology/approach – We collected data with a survey among CEOs in 140 SMEs and performed confirmatory factor analysis applying structural equation modeling in IBM SPSS AMOS (v. 26). Findings – Results reveal that intrinsic motivation is positively associated with helping behavior and knowledge sharing and negatively associated with knowledge hiding. We also confirm the positive relationship between extrinsic motivation and knowledge sharing. Moreover, we find that knowledge sharing increases and knowledge hiding decreases the firm-level open innovation. Especially in high-tech industry, knowledge sharing is a vital determinant of open innovation. Originality/value – Responding to the calls for a deeper understanding of the individual-level factors that determine organization-level open innovation, in this research we focus on the human aspect of open innovation in SMEs. Open innovation is a widely recognized and implemented concept among large corporations and facilitates better understanding of new technological and market developments both within and outside of organizations. However, understanding of the microfoundations of open innovation in smaller firms is still limited, but this steam of research is growing rapidly.

Zanos ima stevilne pozitivne posledice, ki spodbujajo predanost delu, organizacijsko spontanost in tako prispeva k doseganju organizacijskih ciljev, kot sta ustvarjalnost in organizacijska uspesnost. V prispevku zato preucujem vpliv dejavnika notranje motivacije na doživljanje zanosa, saj želim ugotoviti, kako bi lahko povecali pojavnost zanosa pri delu. Analize podatkov, ki sem jih pridobila z izvedbo eksperimenta na internetu (n = 126), potrjuje pozitiven vpliv notranje motivacije na dimenzijo ravnovesja med izzivi in spretnostmi ter na dimenzijo zlitja z izvedbo. Rezultati potrdijo tudi pozitivni vpliv notranje motivacije na vse dimenzije zanosa in posledicno pozitiven vpliv notranje motivacije na doživljanje zanosa. DOI: 10.15458/85451.74
