Perceived Overqualification, Boredom, and Extra-Role Behaviors: Testing a Moderated Mediation Model

Abstract: Despite increasing research on the mechanisms that underlie the relation between perceived overqualification (POQ) and extra-role behaviors, the relation’s affective mechanisms have been understudied. In this study, we focus on the role of job boredom among overqualified workers in order to understand two types of extra-role behaviors: counterproductive work behaviors (CWB) and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB).

“…Otherwise, even if the use of smartphones is prohibited, employees will kill boredom in other ways (e.g., cyberloafing, doodling, and fidgeting). Given overqualified individuals are more likely to experience job boredom (Kim et al, 2021), organizations should select qualified employees rather than overqualified ones. For existing overqualified employees, the organization should assign them more challenging tasks (Kim et al, 2021) to improve their person-job fit and to decrease their job boredom.…”

For existing overqualified employees, the organization should assign them more challenging tasks (Kim et al, 2021) to improve their person-job fit and to decrease their job boredom. In addition, previous studies have shown that having more job resources could reduce the job boredom of employees (Harju et al, , 2018Toscanelli et al, 2021).…”
