“…Duffy, Allan, and Dik (2011) suggested that perceiving a calling linked to academic satisfaction among American college students via greater hope about future career. Similarly, the positive relation between perceiving a calling and work hope was also supported among South Korean college students (Park & Yoo, 2012). Previous research within positive psychology literature has demonstrated that positive thoughts about one's self and the future predict greater well-being (Diener & Diener, 1995;Proctor, Linley, & Maltby, 2009).…”

“…For the items, answers were on a 7-point scale, from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Reported internal consistency reliability for the WHS was .93 for a study with American students (Juntunen & Wettersten, 2006) and .88 for a study with Korean students (Park & Yoo, 2012). According to Juntunen and Wettersten (2006), the test-retest reliability of the WHS was .90, and this scale was correlated in the expected directions with optimism and vocational identity.…”

This study examined how a career calling is linked to life satisfaction among undergraduate students in the United States and South Korea. Using structural equation modeling, we tested the mediating role of core self-evaluations, work volition, and work hope on the calling-satisfaction link. Supporting prior research, perceiving a calling was positively correlated with life satisfaction in both groups. However, we found that work volition was a dominant mediator for South Koreans, whereas work hope was a significant mediator for Americans. These findings suggest that a sense of calling links to well-being, but the underlying mechanism of how a calling beneficially functions may differ across culture and situational contexts. Practical implications are suggested for each group and recommendations are provided for further cross-cultural research.
