다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We suggest a causal model of innovation behavior in engineers and R&D employees. Innovative behavior one of performance-relevant variable, is influenced by individual personalities and psychological work environments. Empirical study was conducted for 187 engineers and R&D employees. The results shows that innovative personalities directly affect innovative behavior without mediating of internal motivation. Also, supportive work environments and uncertain work environments interactirely influence on the innovative behavior. The engineers and R&D employees with innovative personality represent more innovative behaviors than those with less innovative personality. Also they were independent of work environments. Supportive work environments seem to give the employees the feeling of self-determinant and self-efficacy, and internally motivate employees to be innovative. And uncertain work environments are likely to give employees the feeling of risk of going-concern, and put pressure on employees to be innovative at work by creative destructions. For value-creating management by innovations, organizations should provide employees with the environments to meet their internal needs for innovation.
