Studying job stress: Are we making mountains out of molehills?
呼吁研究者关注威胁员工生活质量的工作条件,讨论工作相关压力与幸福感的关系,指出影响工作情感反应的条件不一定损害整体主观幸福感,并识别了与工作经济工具性相关的条件,为未来研究提供方法建议。
Abstract Job stress researchers are urged to examine job conditions which threaten workers' experienced quality of life. The relationship between measures of job‐related strains and well‐being is discussed. Past theorizing and research suggests that it is not safe to assume that job conditions which have an adverse impact on affective reactions to the job (a frequently used indicator of job strain) will also have a negative impact on overall subjective well‐being. One set of job conditions which may be particularly relevant for well‐being is identified and discussed, namely those conditions related to the economic instrumentality of work. Finally, some methodological suggestions for future research in the job stress area are offered.
