PENGARUH KOMPETENSI INDIVIDU TERHADAP KINERJA PEGAWAI DENGAN EFIKASI DIRI SEBAGAI VARIABEL MODERASI

Published: Sep 6, 2025

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to empirically test the influence of individual competence on employee performance. This study uses a quantitative approach method, with a population of 422 and a sample of 81 participants based on the Slovin formula. The data collection technique uses the Linkert scale method and the research instruments used are the scale of individual competence, self-efficacy and employee performance. Data analysis uses MRA (Moderated Regression Analysis). Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that individual competence significantly influences the performance of educational staff at the State Islamic University of Malang. However, self-efficacy cannot moderate the relationship between individual competence and employee performance. Therefore, even though self-efficacy does not moderate the relationship, it is important for institutional leaders to improve employee self-efficacy through education and training to improve overall employee performance. This study supports the theory that individual competence influences employee performance and shows that competent and reliable resources are needed to improve service quality. Thus, the results of this study demonstrate the importance of developing individual competence in improving employee performance and emphasize the important role of institutional leaders in developing quality human resources.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji secara empiris pengaruh kompetensi individu terhadap kinerja pegawai. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pendekatan kuantitatif, dengan jumlah populasi sebanyak 422 dan sampel 81 partisipan dengan berdasarkan rumus slovin. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan metode skala linkert serta Intrumen penelitian yang digunakan adalah skala kompetensi individu, efikasi diri dan kinerja pegawai. Analisis data menggunakan MRA (Moderated Regression Analysis). Berdasarkan hasil analisis data, ditemukan bahwa kompetensi individu berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kinerja pegawai tenaga kependidikan di Universitas Islam Negeri Malang. Namun, efikasi diri tidak dapat memoderasi hubungan antara kompetensi individu dan kinerja pegawai. Oleh karena itu, meskipun efikasi diri tidak memoderasi hubungan tersebut, penting bagi pimpinan lembaga untuk meningkatkan efikasi diri karyawan melalui pendidikan dan pelatihan guna meningkatkan kinerja pegawai secara keseluruhan. Penelitian ini mendukung teori bahwa kompetensi individu mempengaruhi kinerja pegawai, dan menunjukkan bahwa sumber daya yang kompeten dan handal diperlukan dalam meningkatkan mutu layanan. Dengan demikian, hasil penelitian ini memperlihatkan pentingnya pengembangan kompetensi individu dalam meningkatkan kinerja pegawai, dan menekankan pentingnya peran pimpinan lembaga dalam mengembangkan sumber daya manusia yang berkualitas.
