Managers' reactions to implementing layoffs: Relationship to health problems and withdrawal behaviors
研究调查了410名管理者在2000至2003年间实施裁员（发出警告通知）后，其健康问题、寻求治疗、睡眠问题、人格解体和离职意向等结果差异，并发现情绪耗竭和工作安全感起中介作用。
In the present study, we investigate several outcome differences among 410 managers who either had or had not implemented layoffs (i.e., handing out warn notices) during one or more years between 2000 and 2003. Using survey data, our findings show that issuing warn notices significantly predicts increased self-reported health problems, seeking treatment for those health problems, sleep problems, feelings of depersonalization, and intent to quit. Emotional exhaustion fully mediates the relationship between issuing warn notices and health problems, depersonalization, and intent to quit, whereas it partially mediates the relationship to seeking treatment and sleep problems. A similar pattern was found for the mediating variable of job security. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
