Vigor and Absorption in Employees: Exploring Their Relationship in the Organizational Sphere

Abstract

This study analyzes the relationship between Vigor and Absorption in the organizational environment using a simple linear regression model. The research is based on theories on work engagement, organizational energy, and well-being at work, with the aim of evaluating how absorption in work activities can influence employee vigor. It is hypothesized that increased absorption is associated with greater vigor at work, suggesting that workers who are highly immersed in their tasks tend to experience higher levels of energy and persistence in their performance.
To evaluate this relationship, a quantitative design based on econometric techniques was used. The estimated model shows that the coefficient of the Absorption variable is positive and highly significant (p<0.001p < 0.001), suggesting that as employees experience greater absorption in their tasks, their level of vigor also increases. In addition, the model meets the fundamental assumptions of regression, including tests of specification, linearity, and absence of autocorrelation. The conclusions highlight that absorption at work is a relevant predictor of vigor, which has implications both in talent management and in the design of strategies to improve organizational engagement. The evidence obtained suggests that promoting full concentration at work could have a positive impact on employees' energy and motivation. It is recommended that future research expand the analysis by incorporating other variables of work engagement.
