项目摘要

Research on proactive work behavior has been thriving. Proactive behavior involves initiating action in order to bring about positive change (Frese & Fay, 2001; Parker, Bindl, & Strauss, 2010). Several theoretical frameworks and a large body of research give insights into the antecedents of proactive behavior. With regard to the outcomes of proactive behavior, extant research has focused primarily on performance related outcomes. The effect on the well-being of individuals' engaging in proactive behavior has so far received little attention. The few existing studies on the effect of proactive behavior on well-being suggest a complex relationship, because two contradictory findings need to be integrated. On the one hand, proactive behavior and related constructs have a high level of stability over time (Frese, Garst, & Fay, 2007; Li, Fay, Frese, Harms, & Gao, 2014). On the other hand, our own recent research suggests that proactive behavior has costs for individuals' well-being. Proactive behavior results in elevated levels of daily cortisol output and daily fatigue (Fay & Hüttges, 2015), and is, under specific working conditions, associated with increases in job strain over longer periods of time (Strauss, Parker, & O'Shea, 2016). Together, these findings point to a contradiction that has to be resolved. If proactive behavior has costs for individuals' well-being, why do individuals maintain their proactive behavior? To resolve this contradiction, we propose a model that does not only focus on proactive behavior's effects on hedonic well-being, but that also incorporates eudaimonic well-being. Work psychology has only recently begun to acknowledge the relevance of eudaimonic well-being (Sonnentag, 2015). Our model proposes that while proactive behaviors may have costs in terms of hedonic well-being, there are simultaneous and longer term benefits for eudaimonic well-being. Eudaimonic well-being may compensate for the negative effects on hedonic well-being. The model spells out differential mediating pathways that help to unlock the black box between proactive behavior and well-being. Furthermore, research on proactive behavior has so far barely taken the national culture as the context in which proactive behavior emerges into account. Culture and its associated values, expectations, and behavioral norms are likely to affect the proactivity - well-being relationship. Because of its change oriented nature, proactive behavior is likely to be particularly taxing in countries with elevated levels of uncertainty avoidance. A comparison between France and Germany lends itself to a cultural comparison, because France and Germany differ substantially in their level of uncertainty avoidance (Chhokar, et al., 2007). The present proposal includes three studies. They are designed to test for short-, mid- and long-term effects of proactivity on well-being, taking the proposed mediating variables into account. All studies include a cross-cultural comparison.

关于积极主动工作行为的研究一直在蓬勃发展。积极主动的行为包括主动采取行动，以带来积极的变化（Freese & Fay，2001;帕克，Bindl，& Strauss，2010）。几个理论框架和大量的研究提供了对前摄行为的前因的见解。关于主动行为的结果，现存的研究主要集中在与绩效相关的结果上。到目前为止，人们对积极主动行为对个人幸福感的影响很少关注。关于积极主动行为对幸福感的影响的少数现有研究表明了一种复杂的关系，因为需要整合两个相互矛盾的发现。一方面，随着时间的推移，积极主动的行为和相关的结构具有高度的稳定性（Frese，Garst，& Fay，2007; Li，Fay，Frese，Harms，& Gao，2014）。另一方面，我们自己最近的研究表明，积极主动的行为对个人的福祉有成本。积极主动的行为导致每日皮质醇输出和每日疲劳水平升高（Fay & Hüttges，2015），并且在特定的工作条件下，与较长时间内的工作压力增加有关（Strauss，帕克，& O 'Shea，2016）。总之，这些发现指出了一个必须解决的矛盾。如果积极主动的行为对个人的幸福有成本，为什么个人要保持积极主动的行为？为了解决这一矛盾，我们提出了一个模型，不仅专注于积极主动的行为对快乐幸福的影响，但也包括幸福快乐。工作心理学直到最近才开始承认eudaimonic幸福的相关性（Sonnentag，2015）。我们的模型提出，虽然积极主动的行为可能有成本方面的快乐幸福，有同时和长期的好处，幸福。幸福感可以弥补快乐幸福感的负面影响。该模型阐明了不同的中介途径，有助于解开主动行为和幸福感之间的黑匣子。此外，关于主动行为的研究到目前为止几乎没有将民族文化作为主动行为出现的背景。文化及其相关的价值观，期望和行为规范可能会影响积极性-幸福感关系。由于其面向变化的性质，在不确定性规避水平较高的国家，主动行为可能特别费力。法国和德国之间的比较有助于进行文化比较，因为法国和德国在不确定性规避水平上存在很大差异（Chhokar等人，2007年）。本提案包括三项研究。它们旨在测试积极主动对福祉的短期、中期和长期影响，同时考虑到拟议的中介变量。所有研究都包括跨文化比较。
