我们提出“成长需要力量”是员工创造性绩效的重要个人因素。使用互动的角度来看，我们研究增长需要的力量和支持性的工作环境对自我报告的创造力之间的关系在各种各样的工作，在复杂性不同。控制以前与创造力有关的个别因素的影响（即，创造性人格、内在动机和认知风格），发现成长需要强度对创造性既有正向主效应，又与情境有交互效应。此外，工作的复杂性缓和这种关联。对管理者的影响进行了讨论。
We propose that "growth need strength" is an important individual factor for employees' creative performance. Using an interactionist perspective, we examine the relationship between growth need strength and a supportive work context on self-reported creativity across a wide range of jobs that vary in complexity. Controlling for the effects of individual factors that have been previously linked to creativity (i.e., creative personality, intrinsic motivation, and cognitive style), we find that growth need strength has both a positive main effect on creativity and an interactive effect with context. Furthermore, job complexity moderates this association. Implications for managers are discussed.
