While both focus on stressors-differentiating between types (e.g., challenge vs. hindrance vs. threat) and examining their appraisals-the role of appraisal in understanding resources is underexplored. This study therefore investigates job autonomy, a key job resource, through both approaches. Among over 700 German employees who were recruited with the help of an online panel provider, we examined job autonomy and its appraisal as a resource, challenge, hindrance, or threat across four measurement waves spanning 2.5 years. We analyzed cross-sectionally how actual autonomy, combined with individuals' desired levels of autonomy, influenced their appraisals. We also explored longitudinally how both actual autonomy and its appraisals impacted work-related well-being, including job satisfaction, resignation, and cognitive and emotional irritation. Results revealed that higher autonomy was associated with more resource and challenge appraisals, whereas lower autonomy led to more hindrance and threat appraisals. This pattern was particularly evident when actual autonomy levels aligned with desired levels or if desired levels were high. Conversely, a mismatch between actual and desired autonomy reduced the perceived benefit of autonomy. Combining autonomy levels and appraisals enhanced the predictability of well-being outcomes over time, both at the between-person and the within-person level of analysis. In conclusion, this study underscores the importance of integrating appraisal into structural approaches to understanding job resources and advocates for broader consideration of appraisal in future research.

For example, most women experience their menstrual cycle for most of their career, yet the relationship between women's menstrual cycle and work outcomes has received limited attention from organizational scholars and decision-makers. In this study, we explore how menstruation indirectly affects women's perceived daily work performance as mediated by emotional and self-control and how menstrual pain moderates these relationships. Drawing on theories of human energy and biological evidence related to the menstrual cycle, we conceptualize menstruation as an internal, chronic, and intermittent stressor that depletes potential energy, thereby limiting women's ability to engage in emotional and self-control, which in turn affect work behaviors. Given menstrual pain varies between individuals and throughout cycles, we conceptualize menstrual pain as a distinct internal stressor that can further deplete internal resources, moderating the relationship between menstruation and work behaviors. Results across 108 participants, over 30 consecutive days, indicate that compared with nonmenstruating days, when menstruating, women perceive a decreased capacity to engage in emotional and self-control. This in turn affected perceptions of their task performance, organizational citizenship behaviors, and work withdrawal. Menstrual pain amplified the relationship between menstruation and performance through emotional control, but not through self-control. Our findings emphasize how bodily fluctuations, specifically through the lens of menstruation, impact performance and underscore the need for employees, organizations, and society to move beyond ignoring these fluctuations to instead integrate them into workplace practices.

Study 1, a three-wave field study (N = 654), revealed that witnessed workplace ostracism (Time 1) positively relates to organizational dehumanization (Time 2) which, in turn, relates to employees' well-being (i.e., increased physical symptoms; Time 3), attitudes (i.e., decreased affective commitment; Time 3), and behavioral intentions toward the organization (i.e., increased turnover intentions; Time 3). Study 2, employing a 2 × 2 between-subjects design (N = 244), further demonstrated that witnessed workplace ostracism and organizational intolerance of mistreatment-which were manipulated with vignettes-respectively had a positive and a negative impact on organizational dehumanization, though their interactive effect on organizational dehumanization was not significant. Finally, a cross-sectional study (Study 3; N = 282) indicated that the positive relationship between witnessed workplace ostracism and organizational dehumanization was stronger when organizational intolerance of mistreatment was high. This interactive effect extended to observers' increased physical symptoms, decreased affective commitment, and increased turnover intentions.

To mitigate these risks, workplace physical activity interventions (WPAIs) are commonly implemented within occupational health management to promote employees' physical activity. This meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of WPAIs in reducing mental and physical health complaints and in improving organizational outcomes, such as absenteeism, job satisfaction, and productivity. Drawing on the biopsychosocial model, we investigate the additional impact of mindfulness-based intervention components (mind-body interventions) and group-based interventions. A systematic literature search for longitudinal randomized controlled trials across six databases (Web of Science, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE/Pubmed, Embase, APA PsycInfo, and Science Direct) yielded K = 80 randomized controlled trials. Using between-group postintervention comparisons, Bayesian three-level random-effects meta-analytic structural equation modeling revealed small to moderate positive effects for WPAIs. WPAIs were effective in reducing mental health complaints (k = 40, N = 6,602, g = -0.56), physical health complaints (k = 51, N = 7,856, g = -0.38), and improving organizational outcomes (k = 30, N = 6,680, g = 0.30). Mind-body interventions demonstrated greater effectiveness in reducing mental and physical health complaints and in improving organizational outcomes compared to body-only interventions. Group-based WPAIs were associated with better adherence within studies examining health complaints. A dose-response relationship was observed in studies investigating physical health complaints and organizational outcomes, indicating that increased WPAI usage increases benefits. Potential bias arising from unaccounted baseline values and substantial heterogeneity demand careful interpretation of findings and warrant further investigation.

Despite their relevance for daily fluctuations in energy and performance, research and practice indicate prevalent biases and misconceptions regarding circadian processes at work. Individuals seem to believe in the malleability of these circadian preferences, that earlier circadian preferences are associated with being an ideal worker, and that the morning is universally the best time for work. To systematically investigate this phenomenon, we introduce the concept of implicit theories on circadian processes at work (ITCP) to the literature and developed scales assessing three facets of ITCP: (a) the malleability facet, (b) the ideal worker facet, and (c) the time-of-day facet. Starting with construct and item development, we collected qualitative data from 141 employees (Study 1a) and quantitative data from 22 researchers (Study 1b). Next, we surveyed 1,249 participants (Studies 2-5) to establish the three-factor structure and excellent psychometric properties of the ITCP scales in both German and English. Additionally, we identified a range of personal predispositions associated with higher levels of ITCP (e.g., chronotype and workaholism) and, in turn, demonstrated that higher levels of ITCP are partly related to unfavorable individual outcomes. The findings particularly emphasize the undesirability of the ITCP ideal worker (for well-being and work-related outcomes) and the ITCP time-of-day (for sleep-related outcomes) facets. In conclusion, we hope to inspire research on circadian processes at work to finally reduce the lingering implicit theories surrounding these processes.

Yet, little is known about whether and why individuals use these tactics variably. Incorporating control theory and boundary theory, we conceptualized boundary management tactics intended to segment work from family (BMT) as dynamic, goal-directed behaviors adopted in response to a perceived work-family discrepancy (i.e., work-to-family conflict). Using 10-week weekly diary data (N = 247), we examined within-person variation in the use of multidimensional BMT to determine whether increased work-to-family conflict prompts greater future use of BMT and whether BMT subsequently relate to less work-to-family conflict. Aligned with theory, we found substantial within-person variability in BMT (31%). Physical, technological, and temporal tactics were used more often and in a relatively more routinized way than communication tactics. Results revealed that strain-based work-to-family conflict related to greater future use of temporal and physical tactics, with the strongest effect across a 1-week interval. Unexpectedly, overall BMT did not relate to later time- and strain-based work-to-family conflict, and temporal tactics related to more time-based work-to-family conflict in following weeks. This study offers more nuanced knowledge about the dynamic use of multidimensional BMT and lays a foundation for further research to advance a process-oriented understanding of work-family boundary management.

While organizational responses to extreme events have been widely studied, there is less research on how individuals appraise and respond to such events. This leaves us with insufficient evidence on the microfoundations of extreme events, including differences in how individuals perceive the intensity or severity of such events, as well as the implications for safety performance. Drawing on affective events theory, we conducted two quasiexperiments to understand how three distinct levels of exposure to extreme events affect safety performance. In Study 1, data from 292 Iranian male firefighters reveal a significant reduction in safety performance among employees experiencing high, rather than medium and low, exposure to extreme events. This reduction is mediated by heightened negative emotions and lower work engagement. Study 2 replicates these findings with data from 315 Iranian male seafarers and further examines the moderating role of self-emotion appraisal. We find that individuals with strong self-emotion appraisal experience reduced negative emotions confronted with high exposure to extreme events. We discuss the theoretical and practical implications of our findings.
