Self-based learning fuels social-based learning—but not the other way around: insights from a cross-lagged panel study on informal workplace learning by Julian Decius, Michael Knappstein, Andreas Seifert

“…IntroductionAccording to conceptual research on informal learning, the dimensions of the multidimensional construct of informal workplace learning (IWL) interact dynamically. This study adopts a conservation of resources perspective to empirically examine the largely unexplored assumption that self-based IWL (i.e., experimentation and reflection) and social-based IWL (i.e., feedback seeking and modeling) are interrelated over time.MethodsUsing a three-wave survey design with a four-week lag, the study analyzed data from a final sample of 321 employees.ResultsFindings from a structural equation model employing a cross-lagged panel design indicate that self-based IWL is consistently and significantly positively related to social-based IWL over time. …”
