Abstract
Making research and publishing these researches at academic journals is accepted as a differential feature in the academic world. Previous studies Show the evidence that work engagement is a significant predictor of performance. In this study, the relationship between work engagement, which is assumed as substitute for performance, and job resources is examined. At least one university from each city of Turkey is selected and academicians of those universities are sent 20- items survey via internet. 422 academicians is reached by using convenience sampling method. Job resources are subject to second order confirmatory factor analysis. Further, both for job resources and work engagement discriminant validity, convergent validity and composite reliability test are implemented. The results are analyzed with structural equation modelling. The results indicate that, job resources (autonomy, social support, coaching, opportunity for personal development and task significant) need to be enhanced in order to develop work engagement of Turkish academicians.
