工作造成的压力和疲劳需要每天的恢复期,以抵消未来对身心健康的有害影响。因此,本研究的目的是了解正常一周内的恢复过程。主要的假设是,更多的时间花在工作和工作相关的活动将有负面影响的恢复,而更多的时间花在特定的休闲活动将有有益的影响恢复。使用日记,46名受访者(平均年龄35岁)提供了7天内的疲劳,睡眠和恢复活动时间的日常测量。恢复活动包括社会、身体和工作相关活动所花费的时间。结果表明,虽然低努力和社会活动不利于恢复,但体力活动显著预测恢复(即,前者增加疲劳而后者减少疲劳)。睡眠质量也是恢复的重要预测因素。周末的休息似乎对恢复很重要;然而,由于预期周一的工作量,这种影响似乎在周日晚上已经减弱。文章提供了对休闲活动和疲劳体验的见解。
Stress and fatigue caused by work require daily recovery periods to offset future deleterious consequences to mental and physical health. The aim, therefore, of the current study was to gain insight into recovery processes during a normal week. The main hypotheses were that more time spent on work and work-related activities will have a negative impact on recovery, while more time spent on specific leisure activities would have a beneficial impact on recovery. Using diaries, 46 respondents (average age of 35) provided daily measures of fatigue, sleep, and time spent on recovery activities over 7 days. Recovery activities included time spent on activities that were social, physical, and work-related. Results indicated that whilst low effort and social activities are nonbeneficial to recovery, physical activities significantly predict recovery (i.e., the former increase fatigue whilst the latter decrease fatigue). Sleep quality also emerges as a significant predictor of recovery. The weekend respite appears important to recovery; however, the effect seems already to wane on Sunday evening in anticipation of the Monday workload. The article provides insights into leisure activities and the experience of fatigue.
