Not detaching from work during leisure time, affect, and well-being: Testing the underlying processes

这个项目考察了休闲时间的心理脱离，作为一种特定的恢复体验，帮助员工在工作日结束后放松和休养。我们既处理发生在一天一级的短期过程，也处理发生在几个月过程中的长期过程。为了更好地理解在闲暇时间与工作保持精神距离的好处和潜在的坏处，我们考察了作为调解人的沉思和谈论工作，并区分了各种类型的心理疏离。此外，我们认为神经质和外倾性在日水平效应中起调节作用。我们将收集日常水平的数据来预测状态、消极和积极的影响(研究1)，以及小组数据来预测疲惫和工作投入随时间的变化(研究2)。

This project examines psychological detachment from work during leisure time as one specific recovery experience that helps employees to unwind and recuperate after the workday. We address both short-term processes happening at the day level and longer-term processes occurring over the course of several months. To arrive at a better understanding of the benefits and the potential downsides associated with gaining mental distance from work during leisure time, we examine rumination and talking about work as mediators and differentiate between various types of psychological detachment. Moreover, we propose that neuroticism and extraversion play a role as moderators of the day-level effects. We will collect day-level data to predict state negative and positive affect (Study 1) as well as panel data to predict changes in exhaustion and work engagement over time (Study 2).
