“…In addition, recent studies have also started to investigate momentary episodes of work engagement (Sonnentag, 2003) and performance (Beal, Weiss, Barros, & MacDermid, 2005), and concluded that meaningful variations exist not only at the between-person, but also at the within-person level. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to test, for the first time, how variations in job resources may determine state levels of work engagement, through the enhancement of employees' state self-efficacy beliefs over time.…”

This study aims to gain insight in the motivational process of the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model by examining whether daily fluctuations in colleague support (i.e., a typical job resource) predict day-levels of job performance through self-efficacy and work engagement. Forty-four flight attendants filled in a questionnaire and a diary booklet before and after consecutive flights to three intercontinental destinations. Results of multilevel analyses revealed that colleague support had unique positive effects on self-efficacy and work engagement. Self-efficacy did not mediate the relationship between support and engagement, but work engagement mediated the relationship between self-efficacy and (in-role and extra-role) performance. In addition, colleague support had an indirect effect on in-role performance through work engagement. These findings shed light on the motivational process as outlined in the JD-R model, and suggest that colleague support is an important job resource for flight attendants helping them reach their work-related goals.

“…Such studies could examine recovery processes at the day level and could therefore shed more light onto shorter-term processes related to the maintenance of positive mood and performance capability. For example, the recovery experience scales can be applied when extending research on episodic models of performance (Beal, Weiss, Barros, & MacDermid, 2005). It would be particularly interesting to examine if recovery experiences can explain day-level variations in performance.…”

Drawing on the mood regulation and job-stress recovery literature, four self-report measures for assessing how individuals unwind and recuperate from work during leisure time were developed (Study 1). Confirmatory factor analyses with a calibration and a cross-validation sample (total N ϭ 930) showed that four recovery experiences can be differentiated: psychological detachment from work, relaxation, mastery, and control (Study 2). Examination of the nomological net in a subsample of Study 2 (N ϭ 271) revealed moderate relations of the recovery experiences with measures of job stressors and psychological well-being; relations with coping and personality variables were generally low (Study 3). Potential applications for the future use of these short 4-item measures in longitudinal and diary research are discussed.

“…To the extent that an individual is burdened with too many distracting stimuli that tap these resources, performance on other tasks will suffer (Schneider & Fisk, 1982). Given that affective states redirect attentional focus from the task to the affective experience particularly strong (Beal, Weiss, Barros, & MacDermid, 2005), exposure to parents' arguments may undermine children's short-term attention by disrupting their ability to focus and sustain attention. The purpose of the current study is to examine this assumption taking into consideration children's physiological reactivity to simulated conflict and their parental conflict history as moderators in an experimental approach, using an analogue design.…”

Previous research suggests that undermining of attention performance might be one decisive underlying mechanism in the link between marital conflict and children's academic maladjustment, but little is known about specific risk patterns in this regard. This study examines, in an experimental approach, the role of children's history of interparental discord and skin conductance level reactivity (SCLR) as moderators in the link between analogue marital conflict exposure and children's attention. The attention performance of 57 children, aged 11 to 13 years, was assessed prior to and immediately after a 1-min video exposure to either (a) a couple conflict or (b) a neutral condition. SCLR was measured continuously throughout the stimulus presentation. Results indicated that children's family background of interparental conflict and their physiological reactivity moderated the influence of the experimental stimulus on children's short-term attention performance. Lower SCLR served as a protective factor in children from high-conflict homes exposed to the couple conflict. The current study advances the body of knowledge in this field by identifying risk patterns for the development of attention problems in children in relation to marital conflict exposure.
