  1. 1. Results for Henseler’s approach eligible for a p-value one-tailed test.
  2. 2. This table examines the influence of various moderating variables on the hypothesized paths within the model. Moderating variables include: Gender (Male vs. Female); Type of Household Registration (Local vs. Other); Type of Work Experience (Yes vs. No); Type of Volunteer Experience (Yes vs. No); Type of Career Planning (Yes vs. No). The moderating variables are tested across paths (e.g., IM → WLB → EI, IM → EI) using Henseler’s approach for significance. P-values and path coefficient differences highlight the moderation effects, with a one-tailed p-value test applied where appropriate.
