| Résumé : | Introduction. International mobility of researchers has always been a characteristic of academia. However, it became more intense in recent years. While long stays abroad are strongly promoted, their personal impact has only been rarely assessed. Objective. The aim of this study is to establish to what extent a long stay abroad influences work engagement, well-being feeling, affective organizational commitment and attitude towards future international mobility. Method. Participants included 188 researchers who responded to an online survey.Results. Results indicate that work engagement and well-being increase when the international mobility is perceived as successful. Analyzes also show that mobility perceived as voluntary and successful positively predicts favorable attitude towards future international mobility. In addition to these results, descriptive statistics report that men are more inclined to be mobile than women. Conclusion. The positive effects of the international mobility are discussed as well as its perverse effects. |
