- Abstract
This paper draws on conservation of resources theory to develop a theoretical model outlining how and when development idiosyncratic deals affect academic career success. Three-wave data were collected from 435 academics working in various universities in western China, and the results show that resources emanating from the development idiosyncratic deals were positively associated with academic career success (current salary and career satisfaction), and thriving mediated these relationships. In addition, occupational self-efficacy was found to moderate the relationship between development idiosyncratic deals and thriving, such that the relationship was stronger when occupational self-efficacy was low. Occupational self-efficacy also moderated the indirect effects of development idiosyncratic deals on career success (current salary and career satisfaction) through thriving. By highlighting the unexplored mediating role of thriving and the moderating role of occupational self-efficacy, this study offers new directions for development idiosyncratic deals and academic career success.
