Abstract
This study seeks to investigate the effects of challenge and hindrance stressors, and the moderating role of workaholic behaviors in predicting work-to-family positive and negative spillover. Non-instructional personnel at a public university completed measures of stressors and workaholic behaviors during the workday and work-to-family spillover before going to bed over a period of five weekdays (Level-1 N = 386; Level-2 N = 106). Results from multilevel regression indicated that challenge stressors exhibited no relationship with work-to-family positive or negative spillover, while hindrance stressors were positively related to negative work-to-family spillover. Additionally, workday hindrance, but not challenge, stressors interacted with workaholic behaviors to predict nightly work-to-family positive and negative spillover. Our findings highlight the detrimental effects of hindrance stressors on days when employees engage in workaholic behaviors and offer insights regarding reducing such stressors in the workplace.
本研究旨在调查挑战性和阻碍性压力源的影响,以及工作狂行为在预测工作对家庭的积极和消极溢出方面的调节作用。一所公立大学的非教学人员在五个工作日内完成了工作日压力源和工作狂行为的测量,并在睡前完成了工作对家庭的溢出(一级 N = 386;二级 N = 106)。多层次回归结果表明,挑战性压力源与工作对家庭的积极或消极溢出没有关系,而阻碍性压力源与工作对家庭的消极溢出呈正相关。此外,工作日的阻碍性压力源(而非挑战性压力源)与工作狂行为相互作用,预测了夜间工作对家庭的积极和消极溢出效应。我们的研究结果凸显了阻碍性压力源在员工出现工作狂行为时的有害影响,并为在工作场所减少此类压力源提供了启示。
