Purpose: The psychological health of employees is one of the important issues in organizations. One of the dimensions of psychological health is job psychological well-being. Job psychological well-being means paying attention to the physical, mental, and social dimensions of employees and creating a positive and happy organizational environment, satisfied and committed employees, satisfied customers, good relations between employees and employers, and low stress and anxiety in the workplace. Job well-being has five areas: interpersonal fit at work, growth at work, sense of competence at work, perceived appreciation at work, and desire to participate. Considering the important consequences of organizational psychological well-being, examining its antecedents is of particular importance because, with the help of these antecedents, job psychological well-being can be predicted and increased. In the present study, a model of antecedents and mediators was designed to predict job psychological well-being, which is based on the theory of organizational attachment and self-determination. Accordingly, the present study seeks to determine whether different organizational attachment styles can lead to the fulfillment or non-fulfillment of employees' fundamental organizational psychological needs and, as a result, affect employees' job psychological well-being.
Design/Methodology/Approach: The current research was applied and its method was descriptive. The statistical population of the research was the Water & Wastewater company in Ahvaz City. In this study, the required sample size was determined as 230 people using the Kreschi-Cochran formula. The final sample comprised 200 participants selected through a simple random sampling method. The tools used were the scale of organizational attachment Styles (Scrima et al., 2021), psychological well-being in workplace scale (Dagenais-Desmarais & Savoie, 2011), and work-related basic needs (Van den Broeck et al., 2010). Data analysis was done using the statistical method of structural equation modeling, Amos -24 software, and the bootstrap method.
Findings: The results obtained from the research showed that the path coefficients of secure, anxious, and avoidant organizational attachment to job psychological well-being were 0.35, -0.29, and -0.27, respectively, and were significant at the p<0.001 level. Also, the path coefficients of secure, anxious, and avoidant organizational attachment styles with the fulfillment of organizational basic psychological needs were 0.19, -0.18, and -0.20, respectively, and all of them were significant at the p<0.001 level. The path coefficient of the fulfillment of organizational basic psychological needs with job psychological well-being is 0.40, which is significant at the p<0.001 level. The coefficients of indirect effect of secure, anxious, and avoidant organizational attachment on job psychological well-being through the fulfillment of organizational basic psychological needs were 0.19, -0/17, and -0/15 respectively, all three of which were significant at the 0.001 level.
Discussion and Conclusion: The results of the study showed that organizational attachment styles directly affected job psychological well-being through fundamental organizational psychological needs. The direct effect of organizational attachment styles on psychological well-being at work was such that employees who had a secure organizational attachment style had a positive attitude toward the organization and perceived all organizational behaviors and decisions with a positive intention. This factor could be considered a kind of organizational support that could increase psychological well-being at work. The fulfillment of basic psychological needs resulting from a secure organizational attachment style directly helped employees to control stressful environmental conditions, increased self-efficacy to increase adaptation, and helped employees increase psychological well-being in the workplace by attracting more social support.
