Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Job satisfaction or self-fulfillment There are three measurement points for the study: t1 (before training), t2 (after training), and t3 (after 1.5 years). Job satisfaction and self-efficacy, as important sub-aspects, are measured at all three measurement points to determine whether participation in the training has a significant impact. The survey is conducted using a questionnaire based on a valid instrument such as the ABB job description form (Neuberger, 1976) or the SAZ job satisfaction scale (Fischer & Lück, 1972). It is assumed that participation has a positive impact.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Perceived usefulness Subjective knowledge gain Subjective enjoyment Mental strain
