职业适应性的结构，或成功地管理一个人的职业发展和挑战的能力，预测几个重要的结果，但是，很少有人知道的机制，有助于其积极的影响。本研究探讨了职业适应性对工作满意度和工作压力的影响，并通过个体的情感状态进行了中介。使用一个有代表性的样本1671人受雇于瑞士，我们假设，随着时间的推移，职业适应性放大工作满意度和衰减工作压力，通过较高的积极影响和较低的消极影响，分别。这些数据来自于在瑞士进行的职业道路纵向项目的前三波。对于每一波，参与者完成了一项调查。三波交叉滞后纵向模型的结果表明，在时间1较高的职业适应性的员工确实经历了更高的工作满意度和更低的工作压力比那些较低的职业适应性在时间3。职业适应性对工作满意度和工作压力的影响主要表现为负性情绪：职业适应性越高的个体，其负性情绪越少，压力水平越低，工作满意度越高，超过了以往的工作满意度和工作压力水平。总体结果支持职业适应性作为一种自我调节资源的概念，这种资源可以促进一个良性循环，在这个循环中，个人对自己应对环境的资源的评估（即，职业适应性）塑造了他们的情感状态，而情感状态又反过来影响他们对工作的评价。(C)2015 Elsevier Inc.

The construct of career adaptability, or the ability to successfully manage one's career development and challenges, predicts several important outcomes; however, little is known about the mechanisms contributing to its positive effects. The present study investigated the impact of career adaptability on job satisfaction and work stress, as mediated by individuals' affective states. Using a representative sample of 1671 individuals employed in Switzerland we hypothesized that, over time, career adaptability amplifies job satisfaction and attenuates work stress, through higher positive affect and lower negative affect, respectively. The data resulted from the first three waves of a longitudinal project on professional paths conducted in Switzerland. For each wave, participants completed a survey. Results of the 3-wave cross-lagged longitudinal model show that employees with higher career adaptability at Time 1 indeed experienced at Time 3 higher job satisfaction and lower work stress than those with lower career adaptability. The effect of career adaptability on job satisfaction and work stress was accounted for by negative affect: Individuals higher on career adaptability experienced less negative affect, which led to lower levels of stress and higher levels of job satisfaction, beyond previous levels of job satisfaction and work stress. Overall results support the conception of career adaptability as a self-regulatory resource that may promote a virtuous cycle in which individuals' evaluations of their resources to cope with the environment (i.e., career adaptability) shape their affective states, which in turn influence the evaluations of their job.
