摘要 This study examines how protégés in a formal mentoring program can influence mentoring functions received from mentors. Drawing from the proactivity dynamics framework and mentoring and proactivity research, we investigate the relationship between protégés` previous mentoring experience, their information seeking behavior, and the mentoring functions received. We also examine the moderating effect of mentors` mentoring self-efficacy on the relationship between information seeking and mentoring functions received. Data were collected at two points in time from 137 mentoring dyads participating in a formal mentoring program for new hires in China. We found that although protégés were more likely to seek job-related than career-related information from their mentors, career-related information seeking resulted in protégés receiving more mentoring functions. Also, we found support for a moderated mediation model. Specifically, protégés with fewer previous mentoring relationships were more likely to seek career-related information from their current mentors, which in turn, resulted in more mentoring functions received. Mentors` mentoring self-efficacy moderated the relationship between career-related information seeking and two types of mentoring functions (career-related support and role modeling). The implications of these results for research and practice are discussed.
