Callings and Satisfaction among Hospitality Students: The Mediation of Thriving and Moderation of Living a Calling

Abstract

The relationship between calling and academic and life satisfaction among hospitality undergraduate students was explored. One moderator of the calling-satisfaction relation (living one’s calling) and one mediator (thriving) was tested. Having a calling was found to positively impact thriving, academic satisfaction, and life satisfaction. Ultimately, the findings suggest that facilitating exploration of the topic, inspiration through identifying with the topic, and customization of courses to best suit the individual learning the topic and its various subsets is a winning combination for hospitality students.
