| description | This paper introduces a preliminary study and aims to identify the resilience level and solutionfocused
coping style influences on adaptive performance at workplace in a ministry among the
public services officers. There were two psychological components chosen as independent
variables may affect the adaptive performance. Hypothetically, it is a challenging era during the
transition and transformation for employees in government sectors. Psychological readiness
among the officers is necessarily measured in the Government Transformation Programme.
Three questionnaires were administered: The Resilience Scale (Cronbach α = .90), SolutionFocused
Coping Style Scale (Cronbach α = .90), and Adaptive Performance Scale (Cronbach α
= .81). The questionnaires were translated into Malay language and the validation values were
high in this study. There were 57 respondents responded to the questionnaires. Two statistical
analyses were used: t-Test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to investigate the relationships
between the variables. Findings showed that the relationship resilience and adaptive
performance are significant, whilst the coping among the officers and adaptive performance are
not significant. Implications to counsellors and psychology officers are discussed as well
recommendations for the future research are suggested. |
