Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Workaholism as a psychological and social phenomenon is the object of only a few empirical studies. Despite the fact that the phenomenon of addiction to work was not specified in the ICD-10 or DSM-5 Classifications, the authors of this paper have decided that it is worth considering its preconditions.
Materials and method: Based on the review of the available literature, the topic of work addiction was discussed and the main determinants of workaholism and the so-called workaholic personality were presented.
Results: The paper presents the author’s theoretical proposition of workaholism notion which postulates the existence of a form of addiction to work, which has its source in personality and motivation.
Conclusions: Undoubtedly, workaholism is addictive, but only obsessive-compulsive components may not be sufficient to determine its nature. Workaholism adopts a three-dimensional structure including behavioral, cognitive and affective aspects. Further research on this issue is needed.
