Work engagement from a cultural perspective
Culture and positive emotion
Because of the expanding global economy, researchers
in occupational health have begun to conduct crosscultural
research. As far as work engagement is concerned,
however, cross-cultural research has been
largely limited to western countries with relatively
small linguistic and cultural differences, such as Spain,
Portugal and The Netherlands [37]. Because the investigation
of work engagement in other non-western cultures,
such as Japan, still stand out, it may contribute
to our further understanding and to the generalizability
of the concept of work engagement across different
cultures. This is of special relevance because, previous
cross-cultural studies showed that results obtained in
western samples cannot just be generalized to the
Japanese context.
