我们提出并评估了一个职场心理健康模型。基于Warr(1987)对工作相关和背景无关心理健康的区分,我们假设工作相关情感幸福感指数(工作满意度、情绪衰竭和去人格化)和主观能力(工作中的个人成就)在工作特征和角色压力源与心理健康之间的关系中起中介作用。对720名医院员工的回答进行验证性路径分析,结果表明,20个假设效应中,除4个外,其余均在预期方向上显著,模型与数据吻合较好。此外,所提出的模型比非中介模型和假设交替因果序列的模型都更好地拟合数据。结果被解释为支持与工作相关的幸福感的中介作用。最后,对未来将工作与心理健康联系起来的研究方向进行了讨论。
We propose and evaluate a model of mental health in the workplace. Based on Warr's (1987) distinction between job‐related and context‐free mental health, we hypothesize that indices of job‐related affective well‐being (work satisfaction, emotional exhaustion and depersonalization) and subjective competence (personal accomplishments at work) mediate the relationships between job characteristics and role stressors on the one hand, and mental health on the other. Confirmatory path analysis of responses from 720 hospital employees showed that all but 4 of the 20 hypothesized effects were significant in the expected direction, and the model provided a good fit to the data. Moreover, the proposed model fits the data better than both a non‐mediational model and a model positing an alternate causal sequence. Results are interpreted as providing support for the mediational role of job‐related well‐being. Some directions for future research linking work and mental health are discussed.
