Workers' intrinsic work motivation when job demands are high: The role of need for autonomy and perceived opportunity for blended working

作者:

Highlights:

• We tested conditions under which high job demands may undermine work motivation.

• We examined the new concept of perceived opportunity for blended working.

• Blended working, enabled through ICTs, works when need for autonomy is high.

• High job demands per se do not undermine intrinsic work motivation.

• We emphasize the importance of fit between work context and workers' needs.
